    About this ebook

    Are you tired of not measuring up to self-sufficiency, laws, traditions, doctrine, and religion? You need to be set free by knowing the truth.

    This is a true story of a pastor that preached and taught the Scriptures according to the doctrine he learned from his church for many years. This denomination teaches the obligation of giving tithes along with other works in order to keep their salvation and prosper in life. After struggling with these issues due to the trials that were opposite to his teaching, he began to question God.

    This is a must read for anyone that searches for the truth. I have known Pastor Joe Marques for a long time. What I can tell is that he is one of the most sincere and honest individuals that anyone will meet in a lifetime. What you will discover is a person who wants to know God in the most intimate way. He cried out, and the Lord heard his prayer. Many people want closeness with the Lord, but they will not humble themselves and draw close unto the throne of God.
    Pastor Walter Gibbons Jr.
    Faith Temple Community Church of Jesus,
    Miami Gardens, Florida

Twenty-three years passed, and Joe accepted Christ into his life and moved to South Florida where he began attending seminary school. He felt the Lord’s calling on his life and joined the ministry as a deacon in 1998. Ordained a pastor in 2004, he has been helping in church services, teaching, and preaching regularly. Pastor Joe always worked full time in his secular career but is passionate about ministry and is one of the board members at his church where he’s been for over seventeen years.
