Entering the body of Christ and the church, as a "babe in Christ, " I recognized immediately that what I had imagined and believed the church to be I was not experiencing. Instead, quite the contrary, as I never experienced the unconditional love of God the Bible spoke about and that I had come to expect. Coming straight from prison, saved, set free, redeemed, delivered, and sober, I desired to put on my superwoman cape, fly around, and save the whole world, testifying to them how Jesus had changed my life and delivered me from a fifteen-year life on the streets, with addictions to drugs and alcohol and a death sentence. I was gung ho and ready to go, super excited about my salvation, and compelled to share the good news of Jesus Christ with the world. However, I had no idea that I was in for a very rude awakening not being introduced to the true church that Jesus Christ Himself built without walls or distinctions. On the contrary, I became indoctrinated by its very evil and wicked counterfeit counterpart, meaning, religious organizations that men built with its traditions and ceremonies of men designed to destroy the spirit and send souls directly where I was heading--to hell from the pews. And if that was not enough, they hated my guts! I witnessed persons having been in the church thirty and forty years but looked nothing like Jesus, and nothing had changed in their lives. They were still as mean as a junkyard bulldog, jealous, gossiping, and ready to do evil. I knew that these were not churches built by God and that I could never fit in. Therefore, I spent over twenty-three years searching to understand what the full truth of salvation is, the finished works of the cross, who I am, and the purpose of it all.
