We tend to want to play pin the tail (blame) on the donkey (Human insight of reasonability's to what is wrong here). In other words we tend to speak our mind before listening to God about what our mind is to think and then wait to say what he commissions us to say thru righteousness. This is where Christ meets us if we let Him however - where the rubber meets the road.... this subject is the road and we are His rubber hopefully.
It seems, at first, this Scripture doesn't even apply to this thread topic but doesn't it? "Jesus answered, "My Kingdom is not of this world." (John 18:36). "CC" has elements of the world in it, (SuRpRiSe!); as well, the devil would attack anything that is holy here. Those are simply the biblical facts ill regardless of playing pin the tail on the donkey thru human reasonings. The great enemy of Jesus today is the idea of practical work that has no basis in the New Testament but comes from the systems of the world. Satan would love us to be distracted in our thinking; even passive in our thinking in Christ, so that people or groups get that pin stuck in them on the board (if its them it ain't us or me!).
One thing I know is that the systems of the world are at work in here; as I also know godliness is at work in here. The system of the world's work insists upon endless energy and activities, but no private life with God. The emphasis is put on the wrong thing. Jesus said, "The Kingdom of God does not come with observation....for indeed, the Kingdom of God is within you." (Luke 17:20-21). It is a hidden, obscure thing. An active Christian worker too often lives to be seen by others, while it is the innermost, personal area that reveals the power of the person's life.
I am not out to tag the blame on certain groups or people here. For, Spiritual warfare is going to be here ill regardless of me even getting it right if I could. But we must get rid of the plague of the spirit of this world system which attempts to veil the power of God's work. In the Lord's life there was none of the pressure and the rushing of tremendous activity that we not only regard so highly today, but are apart of even here in CC thru computers, smart phones, tablets - and all the quickness and expectations the world system bears on us all is alive in these threads by world order alone. We too often forget to wash each other's feet of the world daily, for we as Christians do walk in the world too.
...And a disciple is to be like his Master. The central point of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ is a personal relationship with Him, not public usefulness to others.
Satan wants "CC" to over-emphasize the practical activities that are a strength in a properly aligned relationship with God thru Christ Jesus. "CC",s practical strengths lies in the fact that here you are immersed in the truths of God to soak in them before Him. We have no idea of where or how God is going to engineer our future circumstances in these threads, or live chats, and no knowledge of what stress and strain is going to be placed on us either.
If we waist our time in overactivity, instead of being immersed in the great fundamental truth's of God's redemption, then we will snap (as has been witnessed) when the stress and strain do come. Satan will divide a United Front, for it will not be based on the Lord Himself.
My encouragement is that we do spend this time here based on our private times soaking before God; getting rooted and grounded in Him, which may appear to be impractical, but will keep you remaining true to Him whatever happens. If we are One Body then, "CC" will rid itself of Satan's movements, (only commissioned by God Himself), and will live harmoniously with other people who are not just like us; even who are presently our enemies.

It takes time to produce a music album. Gotta get cracking on it now. We need to write the songs, get them down pat, record them, edit and mastering, find a company to get the CDs mass produced and get them on the shelves by October.
I'm not too sanguine about the prospect though. I got Trans-Siberian Orchestra's christmas album because it was TSO. Or I THOUGHT it was TSO, but this album wasn't really TSO. It was really bland.
