Is the majority usually right in spiritual matters?
No, in spiritual matters the majority is rarely right and is usually wrong. The ten spies formed the majority but were dead wrong, while Caleb and Joshua were right. Scripture's example shows unbelief characterized the many, while faith was found in the few.
Les explains that when it comes to the things of the Spirit, always remember the majority is rarely right; they are usually wrong. In the Hebrews passage, the children of Israel heard Joshua and Caleb urge them to go up and take the land, trusting that God would drive the enemies out. But the ten spies, the majority, said they could not do it; they were dead wrong, while Caleb and Joshua were right. Les ties this to unbelief: those whose carcasses fell in the wilderness did not enter God's rest because they believed not.
