One of the most effective hindrances Satan uses against believers is distraction . Satan can veer the believer from a growing personal relationship with Jesus to activities that may or may not be good things . He can distract the believer from victory in Jesus to fears about the future and regrets about the past . He can turn a heart from the grace and mercy of Christ to legalistic self-righteousness , from focus on God's glory to the pursuit of personal ambition , from character-based spiritual transformation to activity-based performance . The list is endless and dangerous . The Bible says the believer's eyes should be focused on Jesus Himself at all times . Nothing must distract the believer from making Jesus the center of his or her life . '' No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God '' ( Luke 9:62 ) .

About AOCI

The AOCI exists as a fellowship of Spirit-filled Evangelical and Jewish Clergy for the purpose of: 1) Exalting God 2) Fellowshiping and 3) Divine Networking.

We do NOT advise, nor do we seek, to bring members out of their current denomination or ministerial association. We seek to have a platform to UNITE the Clergy of the world in ways that can benefit not only the Kingdom of God, but also the men and women who faithfully serve their communities, one another, and God.
