People like to belong.

Kids have tree-house-secret-words or fancy tea parties. Youth join sports teams, debating clubs, etc. Middle- aged people “see” imagined advantages in joining secret societies (with code words, symbols, double meanings). Carnal men & women enjoy being “on the inside;” feeling they’re “somebody.” These are substitutes/evil substitutes for God’s pure plan. YOU can belong to the greatest organization – the body of Christ – and it, friend, will not terminate here, but continue forever Above.
