2. Balaam inticed Israel to engage in wrong relationships.

3.Balaam inticed Israel to take on the customs of the world  around them.

4.Balaam wanted to bring a curse on those God had blessed.

5. When a christian or church caters to the world to win it over, they soon find they are caught in spiritual fornication and are spiritually powerless.
