The Body of Messiah no longer has the God-given ability to internally cleanse. It is being cleansed externally with manmade solutions. We're in really bad shape. The Body of Messiah has to engage in spiritual exercise/discipline. We can do it, but we don't want to. Avoiding discipline is avoiding spiritual authority. We need to pray, but can't do so legally-in righteousness, because of unrepented of abuses. The "Church" doesn't want to be held accountable so we find ways that don't involve discipline to keep going. We pray according to man's standard-righteousness not required. Unavailing prayer.
