The COM will serve as the central focus and meeting place for a system of H.O.M.E. fellowship networks. The COM will be a hub for interfacing the activities of the entire Body in a local geographic area. There will be continual praise/prayer/worship, continual education/edification, and continual fellowship in a healthy environment.
The COM will cater to the entire person: spirit,
soul, and body. The COM will help win the lost as well as train the fellowship
of disciples. It will always be open, since it will serve as a spiritual
emergency room and haven for afflicted souls. Its objective will be to
meet every type of need, providing services to heal the broken-hearted
and recovery to the wounded
warrior. The spirit of man will be built up in prayer, the mind of
man will be energized with the Word of Life, and the body of man will be
made fit to do the work of the Gospel.
The great harvest is coming soon, and
the final wave of the Spirit will be built on praise, worship and warfare
carried on by saints with renewed minds and strong bodies. There
will be a COM in the midst of the storm.
The Temple Model
The Dome of Praise
The Throne Room of the Spirit
"let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise" Heb. 13:15
At the center of the COM will be the Dome of Praise
where praise and worship music will go up continually - 24 hours a day
- 7 days a week. The proper service of kingdom priests is to continually
offer up praises from Spirit-filled lips. We are that kingdom of royal
priests! (1 Pet. 2:9, Rev.5:10). The Church has not fully realized the
fulfillment of Heb.13:15, but in the Dome of Praise this will become a
reality. His will, continual praise, will be done on earth as it is in
heaven for the first time in history
(even the Temple in Jerusalem did not have continuous praise!) At any
hour of the day or night multitudes of saints will be praising Him, transcending
the earthly realm via Throne Room Praise. This will furnish the power and
vision to energize the saints and move the forces of light to battle.
Like a nuclear power generating station, the critical mass of "praizatronic" saints will cause a multiplying chain reaction that will unleash spiritual power that has rarely been seen on the planet. In even the best praise services that now exist, the zenith of praise power is short-lived and must be rekindled with each recurrent session. In the Dome, there will be waves of spiritual intensity within a continual stream of praise power that will transcend anything now known to man. Countless thousands will come to know the love of Christ and power of God when they enter into this anointed chamber. There will be world wide worship via digitally optimized telepraise systems, a state-of-the-art digital audio-visual computer complex. This will allow for continual uninterrupted praise and provide an atmosphere which will emulate the sounds of heaven.
The best musicians and composers of the Christian world will be able to contribute their "praise symphonies" to effect a continuous angelic flow of voices lifted to the creator. This artistic endeavor will give rise to a new genre of musical creativity that will amaze the world, "Praizatron". Multitudes will be drawn by the Spirit into His presence and receive the filling of His power.
"World Wide Worship
via
Digitally Optimized Telepraise"
The Court of the Soul
The Inner Court
"My people perish for lack of knowledge" (Hosea 4:6).
"Be transformed by the renewing of your mind"
(Rom 12:2).
"Put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge
in the image of its Creator" (Col. 3:10).
The Court of the Soul will be a concentric multi-structure surrounding the Dome of Praise. It will consist of facilities to build the mind/will/emotions of the believer.
Facilities will exist for:
* Individual Computer Assisted Bible
Study (CABS)
* Christian lending library (with multimedia)
* Praizatron media recording facilities
* Global Body Interface for world-wide
communication (digicomm)
* Local Body Interface Center for H.O.M.E.
network gatherings
* Christian Computer Network facilitating
global ministry interaction
* Renewal Counseling Clinic for Bible-based
personalized direction
* One-on-one instruction and discipleship
The Outer Court
Court of the Body
"Do you not know that your body is the temple of
the Holy Spirit" (1Co. :19)
"I beat my body and make it my slave" (1Co.9:27)
"each of you should learn to control his
own body" (1Thess. 4:4)
The Outer Court or "Court of the Body" will be a Christian SPA and physical culture center. This area will surround the Court of the Soul. As the Dome is to the spirit and the Court of the Soul is to the mind, this will be to the physical body. Imagine having an anointed environment with interactive fellowship to help maintain a healthy and attractive earthen vessel. One can bring secular friends to work out and experience the Christian lifestyle as part of pre-evangelistic outreach.
There will be complete facilities:
* Weight Training
* Exercise Machines
* Sauna
* Whirlpool
* Swimming
* Massage
* Diet Counseling
* Health Food Emporium
* Sports Facilities
