    About this ebook

    This book addresses the spiritual shipwreck of faith that is taking place and is accelerating in these last days before Christ returns. In the last days, perilous times will come because men will love themselves more than God. Christians must understand that in these last days many are heading for spiritual shipwreck through a compromise of Scripture.
    Knowledge is the wherewithal that will enable us to recognize the deceitfulness of sin, to encourage us to earnestly contend for the faith, and show us how to avoid spiritual shipwreck. If we are not aware of the warning signs of sin, we will be seduced by the temptations of this world to abandon our faith walk.
    It doesn't happen overnight; it is like a drip of water that keeps dripping until it becomes a puddle, then a pool, then a lake, and then an ocean. Leaven starts off microscopic until it has leavened or corrupted the whole. If we allow a little lethargy, compromise, or seduction in our life, we will not contend for the faith. As we are aware, watchful, and clothed in God's full armor, we will not be shipwrecked no matter how deceitful sin may be.
