SHOCKING Truth: How Jezebel's Spirit Corrupts Churches | Matthew 13:33 Explained

🗡️ This expository sermon was delivered at Pilgrim Baptist Church in Cookeville, TN on Sunday, March 23, 2025, at 10:00 am. 🗡️

In this powerful sermon, we continue our study of Matthew 13:33, examining the parable of the leaven which a woman hid in three measures of meal. Discover why this parable is NOT about the gospel's positive expansion, but rather a warning about hidden corruption that can destroy churches from within.

Key Points:

• Biblical interpretation of Matthew 13:33 and its connection to Revelation 2

• Why the woman in the parable represents the spirit of Jezebel, not the church

• How false doctrine corrupts like leaven - secretly working from within

• The danger of making decisions based on outward appearances rather than inner substance

• How this parable helps us understand why many churches are falling away today

• Practical application for parents raising children in a corrupt world

This sermon helps believers understand the importance of sound doctrine and avoiding the corrupting influence of false teaching. Using powerful object lessons, we demonstrate how corruption can appear identical to truth on the surface but destroy from within.
