MAITLAND, FL— Joshua K. Sampong’s new book, WHAT IS A TRUE CHRISTIAN? ($16.99, paperback, 9781628398120; $8.99, e-book, 9781628398137) reflects a warning from the mouth of Jesus Christ in Matthew 7, verses 21-23. Essentially, the Lord is communicating that not all professed Christian believers will actually go to Heaven. The hallmark of an authentic Christian lifestyle is that of obedience, and deriving from that, fruits of the Holy Spirit consistent particularly with the New Testament Scriptures.

“My earnest prayer is for the Holy Spirit to convict readers to understand that the spiritual decisions they make after reading my book will determine where they spend eternity: in hell or Heaven, and that there is no middle ground or sitting on the fence in Christianity,” states the author. “[Unless the book’s warnings are heeded] professing and non-Christians will spend eternity in the lake of fire because they are following a false Gospel, and/or because they have not been regenerated and given the new birth of the Holy Spirit through believing in Jesus Christ as the Savior.”

Joshua K. Sampong grew up in a Christian home with traditional Bible principles and with the valuable words of John H. Sammis’ hymn, “Trust and Obey GOD” in all your ways. The author adds, “In my early teens, God’s Holy Spirit placed a yearning for the love and obedience to God in my heart. I was baptized into union with the Lord Jesus Christ at age eighteen after receiving the Holy Spirit’s new birth.” Sampong, by the Holy Spirit’s leading, was inspired to study God’s Word and received a call to ministry, eventually being ordained as a pastor. Joshua K. Sampong currently serves as a co-pastor with the FCG Church Head, Pastor James Ambrose Clark, III in Trenton, New Jersey, USA.
