TERRORIST ALERT!

"Ye DID run well; WHO did hinder you
that ye should not obey the truth?" Gal. 5:7

The verse above speaks of the power of a wrong influence. Unfortunately, many people have let a WHO hinder their walk with God. A friend sent me the following excerpt, and I found it sad but true.

...A late breaking news report. An additional group of 10 terrorists have been newly discovered, only this time, operating out of the churches across America. Identified by Christian security forces earlier today, the following have been confirmed to be secretly undermining the work of the gospel in the United States. They have been identified as: Bin Lying, Bin Sleeping, Bin Arguing, Bin Fighting, Bin Complaining, Bin Missing, Bin Procrastinating, Bin Backsliding, and Bin Non-Tithing. The ring leader is none other than Bin Lucifer, who has trained these operatives very well. They are out to destroy the body of Christ. Their strategy is always the same: covertly infiltrate the local churches disguised as Christians, pretend to love the Lord but secretly sow seeds of discord, criticism, discouragement, doubt, and other sins among the congregation. If any of these terrorists are seen operating in your church, immediately report them to your pastor and pray for revival.

In Rom. 16:17 we're instructed to "...mark them which cause divisions and offences, contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them." Satan has found that when the church is persecuted from the outside, that it grows stronger. So then he had a plan. He thought, "I'll just join the church and work from the inside out." Over the years I've observed a very disturbing fact. The Devil only needs one heart to work out of, to infiltrate and recruit. Be wise to WHO might try to enlist you. Let's be used to build, not tear down, the Kingdom of God.

Thanks! Pastor Earl Beal
