However,
there have been reports of a sixth group. A tiny cell known by the name Bin
Prayin is actually the only effective counter terrorism force in the church.
Unlike other terrorist cells, the Bin Prayin team does not blend in with
whoever and whatever comes along. Bin Prayin does whatever is needed to uplift
and encourage the Body of Christ. We have noticed that the Bin Prayin cell
group has different characteristics than the others. They have Bin Watchin, Bin
Waitin, Bin Fastin, and Bin Longin for their Master, Jesus Christ, to
return. NO CHURCH IS EXEMPT!

It's
not some terrorist across the sea that we need to fear. We're doing a fine imploding job right here
at home. The statistics on people
leaving church and the teachings of their youth are heart wrenching. Oz Hilman writes: "In the early Hebraic
church, wisdom was gained by obedience. Hebrews learned that wisdom was gained
by knowing and doing the will of God and that it often did not line up with
logic. However, as the church became impacted by the Greek culture through the
influence of scholars like Socrates and Aristotle, knowledge-based systems
became more influential in the way education was taught and applied. Greeks
believed that the way to gain knowledge was based on reason and analysis. When
Joshua walked around the city of Jericho
seven times blowing his trumpets, he was exhibiting a Hebraic model of
decision-making - pure obedience. Logic and reason played no part in this
decision. When Elisha instructed the army general to go wash in a lake in order
to be healed of leprosy, it confronted his intellect. This was Hebraic thought
rooted in obedience. The Church has
moved into a more knowledge-based and programmatic system of operation over the
centuries, rather than obedience-based methods that are motivated by a heart
fully devoted to following God. We've replaced obedience with reason, logic,
and slick marketing for attractive programs to entice people into our
churches".
A pearl to string: When
things run amuck it's always the same answer.... back to the fundamentals. Seems we need to return to yesteryear and the
Hebraic model of decision-making - pure obedience. “Lord, I’ll go! Send me.” (Isaiah 6:8)
