10/07/12 Bring Every Thought Into Captivity and Obedience to Christ (Archive)
22/09/2021 Duration: 01h04minIn 2 Corinthians 10, Paul says that "we bring every thought into captivity and obedience to Christ." Be aware of the imagination, not controlled by it.BOND Archive Sunday Service, October 7, 2012: Jesse Lee Peterson first presents news in California. Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law to give driver licenses for illegals, and shielded them from deportations. He also gave a tax break for Hollywood, offered leniency for juveniles serving life in prison, and outlawed Christian counseling for "gay" children. Jesse then talks about the imagination, and we read from 2 Corinthians 10: 1-11. The Apostle Paul wrote that "we bring every thought into captivity and obedience to Christ." Jesse speaks about not being controlled by thoughts, and then discusses forgiveness, awareness, and God with several people. God let Jesse see himself, and he saw the darkness inside himself.

09/19/21 How Did Mankind Come to Neglect the Interior...?
19/09/2021 Duration: 01h49minWhat is "abundant life"? Vaccine discrimination: Don't overreact! BQ: How did mankind come to neglect the interior and focus on the exterior?Church with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, September 19, 2021: Jesus said he came that we might have an abundant life. // There's a battle between vaccinated and unvaccinated: But don't let anything be too important that you grow angry. Don't impose on private businesses. Stay still, and don't overreact. // Last week we talked about "cult leaders." Don't put anyone on a pedestal. // Bible thumpers talk about dying, heaven, and hell. But the most important thing is living right today. // A lady asks the difference(s) between judging, discerning, and having no opinion. // Be born again: We've never had an opinion. We're either led by God or Satan. // Biblical Question: How did mankind come to neglect the interior and focus on the exterior? Nowadays the world pushes teaching and education on children from a young age. This stifles the opportunity for discovery on your own. //

09/23/12 What Happened to Our Resistance to Evil? (Archive)
15/09/2021 Duration: 01h53sEvil has no resistance in the outside world or in our own lives. Seek first the Kingdom of God; examine yourself. BOND Archive Sunday Service, September 23, 2012: Jesse Lee Peterson references a story from Thomas in which Jesus answers a question about "the End" with a reference to "the Beginning." Jesse also talks about the Women's Forum, where women are honest about themselves. Did Chick-fil-A cave to the radicals? Prop B: Adult film stars want their paraphernalia subsidized. Evil has no resistance — neither in the public square nor in our personal lives. Some women relate in judging their husbands' handling of their children. Men and women are different. Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson, and others came out in support of "same-sex marriage" in Maryland! In the last several minutes, Jesse gives a monologue at-length about the ego, with some follow-up at the end.

09/12/21 Whose Fault: Cult Leader or Followers? (Church)
12/09/2021 Duration: 01h48minWhose fault is it when grown adults are deceived by a so-called "cult leader"? Jesse brings Joel on-stage to illustrate God opening eyes. Church with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, September 12, 2021: Jesse feigns like we're going to bow our heads to pray, then leads a discussion on so-called "cults" and "cult leaders." Who's fault is it when an adult is deceived: The "leader" or the follower? When people are emotional, their ego does not want to admit they're wrong. // Jesse then brings Joel on-stage to show an illustration of salvation: At one point, Jesse identified with his false identity, but now that God opened his eyes, he now sees it's not him. // Talking with new-comers, Jesse explains what love and faith are. ANNOUNCEMENTS: We'll deal with the Biblical Questions on the radio show Monday. Nick will begin his own show on JLP's network in January; we're looking for an intern to help him with producing Jesse's show. We have our monthly Women's Forum this third Thursday of the month. https://rebuildingthema

10/23/16 Love & Marijuana: Church Discussion on Temptation & Marriage
03/09/2021 Duration: 58minChurch with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, October 23rd, 2016: Jesse talks about how people do not accept the truth about themselves when confronted. A young man talks about feeling guilty about smoking marijuana and looking at pornography. Jesse tells him we should not judge ourselves, since our judgment is wrong. Satan, the accuser, uses the Bible and the truth to feed us lies. Yet we should not give in to temptation. Another young couple speaks about their new marriage. The wife is several years older than the man. They talk about minor conflicts and hints of jealousy on the part of the man. Jesse says marriage in which the wife is older often becomes a mother-and-son relationship. He urges them to work through their issues before having children.

01/09/2021 Duration: 01h52sBOND Archive Sunday Service, September 9, 2012: Jesse Lee Peterson talks with the people about belief: Do you doubt at times? Why? Thoughts are from the Devil, not from you, but you identify with them and play God, when you're not God. You have a false image of yourself, and false expectations of what should be.

09/02/12 How Salvation Is Connected to Our Parents (Archive)

Speak up in the right way, and don't listen to the thoughts.BOND Archive Sunday Service, September 2, 2012: Jesse Lee Peterson talks with people who still resent their parents. John feels like a teenager over age 50, arguing with his mother. Others struggle to speak up, one lady dealing with her father, and people who get on her nerves. It's not others' fault that they drew anger out of you. Jesse couldn't speak up to a girlfriend unless he was angry (and then did it in the wrong way), because he needed her approval. Do not listen to Satan's voice in your thoughts. You need love.

Biblical Q: What's the difference between a secular intellectual and a Christian intellectual?Church with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, August 22, 2021: Rest in peace, John Williams. PSA: Don't blindly trust people who come to church. Jesse is not your emergency doctor! Amazing Men's Conference last week — thank you! While taking questions and comments, Jesse talks about the depths of what forgiveness means: God takes the spirit of anger out of you, and replaces it with His spirit. Have you forgiven? Do you still get angry at times? Do you ever say, "Get behind me, Satan"? Are you convinced that all thoughts are lies? One newcomer asks about this. Finally, we talk about the Biblical Question: What's the difference between a secular intellectual and a Christian intellectual?

Be still and deal with situations.BOND Archive Sunday Service, August 26, 2012: Jesse Lee Peterson invites people to share questions or observations about their lives. One man Patrick says he has trouble committing to decisions, but Jesse explains that it's abnormal to make decisions. It's crazy to follow the mind, what you think and feel. Our path is laid out for us; we have a knowing within. The things that happen in life are for your good, but when living in a state of judgment and anger, you miss out on life. How do you renew your mind? We talk about prayer versus "talking to God," and warn against listening to the voice inside your head that sounds like you. Be still; you do not need to make many plans. There is never a reason to be angry. We talk about thoughts and temptations. There is no such thing as choice or free will. At the end, we read from Romans 1, verses 18-32 about God's retribution against the ung

08/15/21 Church in Orlando, Florida (After Men's Conference)
16/08/2021 Duration: 02h16minChurch with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, August 15, 2021 in Orlando, Florida, the day after the BOND 11th annual Men's Conference: (Please bear with us on audio volume issues at this event.) Jesse makes opening comments, and on request does the Silent Prayer with everyone, before taking questions. An Italian man "prays while going to work." An ex-pothead young woman with children from two fathers sometimes judges herself and gets drunk. There's no such thing as an alcoholic; that's just what you do in darkness. Jesse did not plan his life, or imagine that he'd be doing the work he does. An intellectual young man questions Jesse's reliance on the Holy Spirit for guidance, since he believes that the Bible is the Word of God. He does not have perfect peace. Toward the end, he talks again, asking about Jesus saying, “Let no man teach you,” in contrast with, “Go and make disciples of all men….” We talk about Alcoholics Anonymous and the like, doing the Silent Prayer for more than 3 minutes, and judging a Biden-vote

08/19/12 Be Careful How You Associate with Children of Satan
11/08/2021 Duration: 01h52sBOND Archive Sunday Service, August 19, 2012: Jesse Lee Peterson warns people not to put him or anyone else on a pedestal as their leader. Speak up to the person, and do not gossip, nor listen to gossip. Be careful how you associate yourself with the children of Satan. They will treat you the same way they treat others. Do you have peace? Some talk about the imperfect peace that they have — how gaining peace in their mind is a process, and their attraction to "justified anger." One woman is letting her adult children go. There is a time to speak up, and a time to let things pass. We read from Romans 7: 14-23. Paul talks about the sin living in him that drives him to do what he does not want to do. We have enough trouble in our own lives that we should not concern ourselves with others' issues and failings. But rather, look at yourself. Welcome boredom. Wake up, so that you can deal with evil. Australia is passing laws that suggest horrible prejudices against men. One lady mentions a book "Life Is So Good," by

It was his father's, his dad's 80th birthday. Some of the people talk about things they discovered about themselves in dealing with life.

01/08/2021 Duration: 02h05minChurch with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, August 1, 2021: WHM is over! Samuel shares some U.S. history and quotes from American Founders about Christianity. An atheist woman covered Jesse's experts' segment on educated women. Anyone who has fear is not of God and has no love. One young woman forgave her mother, grew up without her father, and recently left her live-in boyfriend. A young black man finds himself angry at the evil in the world. The lady from our Silent Prayer radio commercial flew in from Texas for Church! A couple of men ask about how to know and believe the truth — one man doubts himself when trying to prove points to others. In order to have faith, doubt all thoughts, which are all lies. Never try to convince anyone; don't play ego. Another man, by contrast, enjoys getting a rise out of people who disagree. (His girlfriend may join The Jesse Lee Peterson Show to discuss disagreements about race and right and wrong.) One man was in a fatal car accident in which his friend died! Afterward, his ow

One mother brought a 6-year-old and a 3-month-old to this late-night showing! These events are unsurprising, despite the initial shock, because of how weak men and society have grown. *PhD student James Holmes was later convicted of the midnight attack at a showing of a Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises. Reportedly, 12 were killed, and 70 injured — 58 by gunfire. Police caught him, and he did not resist arrest. He was sentenced to life in prison, instead of capital punishment.

A woman who still lives with her abusive mother… Her cousin is a young man controlled by women… And a young man who forgave feels like he's descending back into anger. (Jesse also answers brief questions about singing and communion at church.) Jesse then asks: Are you trying to be your personal best? There's no such thing! Bring back shame: Don't judge yourself, but be ashamed, and not proud of your fallen state stuff! Biblical Questions: Genesis 3: 16 reads: To the woman God said: "Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you." What does this mean?
