Jesus declared to Peter, "[...] upon this rock I will build My Church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." By this statement, He communicated to the world His Mission on earth: the building of His Church. This Church, founded upon the edict of indestructibility, has indeed withstood untold onslaught of what Jesus referred to as the gates of hell for over its 2,000 years of existence. Jesus' Church is still going strong in this 21st. century, and is primed to prosper till the end of time, when He will return to receive it to Himself. Dr. Uruakpa posits in this riveting masterpiece that this indestructibility reposes on the Twelve Pillars which he presents in such a readable language. The author makes the case for the Church as the only safe place when that time comes, challenging his readers to exercise their right to diligently search for a Bible-believing church, and giving them useful criteria for finding a home church.
