The religious spirit, largely underestimated and poorly understood by Christians, is one of the enemy 's most reliable cohorts for thwarting God 's plan in our lives. Manifesting itself in many ways, this ancient spirit often counterfeits the Holy Spirit and lures God 's people into complacency, legalism, control, or self-righteousness. In Conquering the Religious Spirit, Tommi Femrite uncovers with stories and personal vulnerability how the religious spirit operates in the lives of believers. She gives a step-by-step guide to lasting freedom that will help propel readers into joy and fulfillment in God.
What is a religious spirit? "A religious spirit is a demonic force that influences people to act pious, self-righteous or super-spiritual.
