There was also another spirit in the Recovery, a spirit of bondage, an evil spirit which infected mostly the leadership. These ones were earthly Jerusalem, born of Hagar the maidservant, living according to the law, leading the LC's into legalism, and persecuting those under grace. These ones exalted man, and dishonored God. They are no different than the fleshly Judaizers who hated Paul, who rightly called them dogs and evil workers.
