WORKS OF THE FLESH: IMMORALITY,IMPURITY,INDECENCY; IDOLATRY, SORCERY, ENMITY, STRIFE, JEALOUSY, ANGER (ILL TEMPER), SELFISHNESS, DIVISIONS (DISSENSIONS), PARTY SPIRIT (FACTIONS, SECTS WITH PECULIAR OPINIONS, HERESIES); ENVY, DRUNKENNESS, CAROUSING, AND THE LIKE. Wherever the works of the flesh are practiced, there will usually be strongmen present, because that is their area of operation. Whether the works of the flesh get beyond that stage and into demonic activity depends on the individual involved. Many times, the first stage of the works of the flesh is curiosity, which leads to the initial participation. As the person is charmed and fascinated, to convict him of his wrongdoing. But if he ignores the conviction of the Holy Spirit over a period of time, which varies according to the person and situation, he may be in danger of initiating demonic activity because he has allowed an opening in his defenses through his continued sin.
