“The Holy Spirit has been made like a drunk uncle at a wedding: still technically invited, but stuck in the corner in case he embarrasses us.”
Leading Like Jesus Not Jezebel: Recognising the Spirit That Destroys From Within
I see a lot of posts floating around about ‘The Jezebel Spirit’, many of which don’t seem to have a clue.
