Ch 22 - 7 Major Influences Over The World

The influence of the World…
2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollution of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, if they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
21. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
22. But it happened unto them according to the true proverb, the dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow (pig) that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

Would God call you a hypocrite?
Hypocrites affect the impact of the word...
A hypocrite has an influential and undermining spirit...
The purpose of satan is to pollute the stream and any time you muddy the water the sheep will never drink....

Referred to nearly 200 times in scripture is sheep as a type of the church, they get disturbed very easily…

What is an Absalom type spirit?
They form through a person’s influence over another:
Hidden alliances, hidden agendas, hidden contempt, hidden hatred, hidden revenge, hidden strategies.
ALL coming from a root of bitterness...
With this ROOT comes every evil work...
They start recruiting the sheep and muddy the water. The sheep get weak and ultimately destroyed.
Watch what is influencing You.
