This is the hour of the Church. We need to make it our finest hours. By way of a quick recap, in the book of Revelation 2:14 - 15 Jesus warned the Church against the doctrine of Balaam and the doctrine of the Nicolaitans. I explained that the doctrine of Balaam or the counsel that Balaam gave to the King of Moab who was seeking to destroy Israel was to entice Israel into compromise by enticing them with the Moabite women and to live with idol worshippers. The result was the destruction of 24,000 of the men of Israel by a plague. It was not what was outside of them that destroyed them, it was what they were brewing inside of themselves. It was who Israel kept company with what they looked at, how they entertained themselves.
