Church with Jesse Lee Peterson

VIDEO: https://youtu.be/QFfy9nj8BaI At Church, Jesse asked his Biblical Question of the Week: Is your house in order, or divided? A newcomer asked about the Silent Prayer, and a man asked about anger. READ: http://rebuildingtheman.com/is-your-house-divided-church-apr-29/ People didn’t seem to know what Jesse meant in asking, “Is your house divided,” or “in order?” Most people answering — Christians familiar with the Bible — felt unclear about the question. People admitted that they want to do right, but don’t always do it.A young woman who found Jesse via YouTube joined us for the first time. She was not sure how to answer the question. At age 26, she lives with her mother, works part time, and would be homeless if she tried to move out. Like others, she asked about the Silent Prayer which Jesse urges people do, any biblical references to it — she felt concerned about falling for “eastern meditation,” which Jesse doesn’t know much of anything about. When she tried it, she felt spiritually attacked. Jesse urged her to continue doing her talking prayer but also do quiet prayer. God said, “Be still, and know that I am God.” The Bible says that we don’t know what to ask for, but the Holy Spirit intercedes on our behalf. Others in the service pointed out that Jesus went away to pray early in the morning.Dealing with angerA man who’s attended before said that his house is not in order — he still lives with a woman he’s not married to, which we dealt with last week. He also asks for advice dealing with a problematic business partner. Christ said to love our enemy. Treat them just as we would a friend, and do not hate them. Some commented how President Trump attacks back when attacked, but that he does not seem to take things personally. How do you love your enemy and still protect yourself and fight evil? People tried answering how to deal with others without anger.We have our Men’s Forum this Thursday, first Thursday of the month at 7 PM at BOND.Thanks for the support.

VIDEO: https://youtu.be/E-7LPlwAYo0 At Church, we talked about whether human beings were created to die, whether we have to die. We also talked with several people living with boyfriend or girlfriend before marriage. http://rebuildingtheman.com/created-die-church-apr-22/ | http://rebuildingtheman.com/church At Church we talked about whether human beings were created to die. Most people believe that they will die someday, although some do not think much about it. We don’t see evidence of people living forever, so many doubt that you can. They live by sight, and not by faith. But Christ overcame death. Jesse says that the world brainwashes and corrupts us as children, instilling anger and wrong belief. Be careful what you believe in — your belief can kill or heal you. Scientists found no detectable limit to human life, and that the body renews itself every seven years.Jesse also talked with a number of people, both newcomers to Church in-person as well as people participating in the Live Chat watching on YouTube. It’s common for couples to live together and have sex before marriage. But this is wrong. The world accepts evil as good, but Christians must set the example. A man who sleeps with a woman before marriage will cheat on her later. Similarly, a woman would as well. Men and women must overcome emotions, commit to do right. Practice the Silent Prayer faithfully. So many people don’t truly care about seeking first the kingdom of God — they may say they do, but they’re lying.Jesse told the story of a 73-year-old woman who called his radio show this week — she realized she hated her mother and was wrong for it. She forgave her and overcame her fear and anger. She said that she never heard anyone else talk about the anger passed down to children by mothers, and the need to forgive one’s mother. https://youtu.be/envRkXlZKCw Before wrapping up, Jesse mentioned his article coming on from World Net Daily, addressing the fact people wrongly cater to black people’s anger over Starbucks’ supposed discrimination controversy. He will share it on social media.BOND t-shirts! https://teespring.com/stores/rebuildingtheman Donate to BOND (also PayPal): http://rebuildingtheman.com/donate/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/rebuildingtheman PayPal (single or monthly donation): https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=CAdAqhNiNHK6IgfD81HMcGhHq4npQVJJ67BSn5d7-7CCoQp7Nc89_mpDEPOhmEQuLoSZ6W&country.x=US&locale.x=US Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

VIDEO: https://youtu.be/lPnIOBWg7tg We dealt with a suicidal young man, fear of God, reaction to President Trump's bombing of Syria, the concepts of trust and freedom lacking today. Read below or here: http://rebuildingtheman.com/church-jesse-lee-peterson-apr-15/A man watching online gave us a Super Chat donation on YouTube, and asked whether we should fear God. So Jesse asked people what they thought. We dealt with this in a prior service, but fearing God simply means reflecting on what God brought you through in life, and appreciating Him for it. Some say they fear God, but it’s an emotional feeling — not what Jesse means, and not a real godly fear.Then Jesse brought up one thing prominent in the news: President Trump bombed Syria after a reported chemical attack there. Many who usually support the president do not support this action by the U.S. — some feel betrayed, including good friends of Jesse’s. Some participated in anti-war rallies. But the people elected him because they trust him. Jesse’s point in bringing this up: People abandon trust of another person just because that person does one thing they oppose. Jesse was neither for nor against this action, but he trusts this president.Similarly, there are instances in your life in which you do not agree with another person’s actions. Yet you should still trust and work with them, and give them the freedom to do what they will. In churches, men grow divided due to an offense, and don’t wish to work it out! This is wrong — that’s not love!Another example — the Civil Rights Movement: We should not allow the idea and accusation of “racism” to take hold. If you are a black person of love, why would you impose on a white private business owner who does not wish to serve you? In the Jim Crow days, Jesse never felt angry about being separated from whites or disallowed from certain stores. He and his friends went to black businesses where they were allowed and still had fun.Today, homosexual couples impose on Christian businesses, forcing Christians to service them for so-called same-sex marriages. Jesse urged Christians to take the sinners’ money and donate it to organizations fighting against the radical homosexual cause.Getting back to the young man who attempted suicide a number of times, Jesse urged him to get to know himself, and get over anger. Stop listening to the voice of your father the devil — do not believe the thoughts of worthlessness. Practice the Silent Prayer findable on the BOND Church page. When anger leaves, your mind renews itself, and you see things clearly, as they are. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

VIDEO: https://youtu.be/KcChEXh_d_s Jesse asks if you have anger, why do you give "spiritual advice"? Should men be "best friends" with women? Don't gossip at or about Church! Know yourself. READ MORE: http://rebuildingtheman.com/give-spiritual-advice-church-apr-8/Jesse started out asking how many people have anger. Some raised their hands, while others were unclear. He then asked how many give “spiritual advice.” If you have anger, you are spiritually blind. If you have not overcome, how do you know the information you share works? One person admitted that it was an egotistical thing. Sometimes people feel right giving advice when asked.One man watching online gave a donation and asked if he should date a woman a few months older than he is. Jesse said he could try it — but no sex! Normally Jesse advises men marry women 5-10 years younger — especially today as men are so weak. If it becomes like a mother-son relationship, run the other way!Something going on at Church that Jesse did not know about — people had begun emailing one another and going on Facebook, gossiping, giving and taking bad advice, and some have stopped attending Church as a result. Some felt that others at Church did not like them. If you do not have anger, you would not be concerned whether people like you or not. Jesse does not pay attention to or talk about what goes on between people outside Church — he minds his own business. With Men’s Forums and Women’s Forums, we respect privacy and don’t talk about what’s said afterward. So should Church be. So cut out the mess! Further, when people are speaking seriously, there is no good in laughing at their issues. Some do this too much.Jesse asked people: Should a man have a woman as his best friend? Some people were very unclear in answering this question. One woman said they should not, unless if the woman is a girlfriend or a wife. Another man said they could, but maybe they should not. One man said that usually it’s a case of one using the other, and one being romantically interested in the other. A man who visited Church for the first time said he tried it after his divorce, and after a number of years the relationship became more than just a friendship, and then turned very sour. Further, she knew all of his personal business and weaknesses.One person watching online asked: How do you get to know yourself? Jesse urged people to know themselves, so that they can know God. The first step is to know that you do not know yourself.Another person asked: How do you “relax in it” — like relax in anger? Jesse tells people to relax and go through whatever they need to go through. This means not to give in to temptation, but just go through the pain with patient endurance.Jesse also urges that you commit to prayer. Do the Silent Prayer morning and night, and throughout the day. http://soundcloud.com/rebuildingtheman/silent-prayer Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Are you doing greater works than Jesus? At Church on Easter, a number of new people joined us. One man forgave his parents and thanked Jesse, saying, "It worked!"Christ came to put everything back to order, making a way to return to the Father. Jesse suggested that it's more difficult for educated people to return to God. People with degrees, even those in the Bible, are nutcases!Jesse asked his Biblical Question from John 14:12 — Are you doing greater works than Jesus? Jesus said:Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.One man from Long Beach, California, said he came to Church to thank Jesse. He went to forgive his parents. He recounted telling himself that if he can get rid of his anger, he'd dedicate his life to God. But when it happened, God dedicated him to Himself! He realized Jesse told the truth about men feeling emotional like women, like their mothers. He held a grudge for 30 years against his absent father, who became a Christian, but denied wronging his son. Thankfully he felt no anger at his father's denial, because he had no anger anymore. He repeats that he doesn't have to do anything, but that life keeps coming. When you forgive, God takes away the darkness, and frees you.A teenage son and his mother joined Church in person visiting from the UK. They watch Jesse on YouTube. Jesse urges them to practice the Silent Prayer, findable on http://rebuildingtheman.com/churchAnother man asked what it means to "relax and go through it," when experiencing inner conflict. Do not reach out for a drink, smoke, food, or sex for comfort. Simply bear it.A number of people gave donations via YouTube "Super Chat," some asking questions about "food addiction," and forgiving people who do not admit they're wrong. Jesse told about how he'd grown fat over the years and realized it — when you drop the anger, you do not have the conflict, and can overcome it. The beautiful thing about forgiveness is that it does not depend on the other person's reaction or admission of guilt.Jesse brought a girl and man on-stage to illustrate a point about how anger enters a child's soul through his mother and father who are in an angry, fallen state. Women hate weak men. And weak men can't deal with angry women. The wrongs people do us are not personal — no one can help but be evil when of their father the devil.We read another passage from the Bible, 2 Timothy 1:6-11Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began, but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, to which I was appointed a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.Jesse pointed out from these scriptures that God did not give us a spirit of timidity. You're not supposed to be timid! The love of God is not emotional love. Jesse recounted confronting people at the anti-gun rally March for Our Lives, which Jesse calls "March Against Our Rights." He called people "racist," even though "racism" does not exist, to turn the tables on the evil people who always cry "racism" against good people. Jesse called them out on being "dumb."A viewer Ignacio from Mexico asked how to find a good church. Jesse suggested he start a church where he is, and discuss issues with them, rather than trying to settle. Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Jesse talked about questioning anti-gun protestors at March for Our Lives in L.A., then talked alpha/beta, forgiving mothers, overcoming emotions, and prayer. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church On Saturday, many people took part in a protest called "March for Our Lives" — more accurately, March Against Our Lives. They wish to take away the right to bear arms. Jesse asked people why they demonstrated, speaking to children and adults. One black girl agreed with Jesse that teachers should carry guns to protect students. But the teacher did not like her answer and ended the interview. Another girl realized Jesse asked a good question, wondering how an unarmed father can protect his family from an armed criminal. Parents sacrifice their children to public schools.Jesse's producer James read a few paragraphs-long comment about alpha males and beta males. A fellow who watches online suggested that Christians are neither alpha nor beta — that such ideas are from evolutionary psychology, and that only Christ is alpha. He said that we should not seek glory for ourselves, but only for God. However, this misses the point of what Jesse meant in discussing alpha vs. beta — Jesse simply meant "strong" vs. "weak." So in response, Jesse strongly stated that such intellectual thinking will kill you. It reveals the kind of thought that makes Christians weak and keeps them from protesting, fighting, and being a light in the world.A man visiting the States from Australia said he learned of Jesse from his first interview with Stefan Molyneux. He asked Jesse about the fact that we need to do nothing, but that in the fallen state we must go and forgive our parents. Jesse said that when you forgive your mother your weakness will finally leave you. Jesse also talked with this man and his girlfriend from California about the Silent Prayer. The young woman said she does yoga, but that's like the whooping and hollering prayer many Christians practice, to no avail.Another young man joining us for the second time asked about Christianity. He suffers from the same intellectual thinking that misleads him. We must overcome thoughts and feelings, which come from Satan, and recognize God's voice.

VIDEO: https://youtu.be/Hl53r7QsD08 Sunday, March 18, Jesse asks the question: Can you serve two masters? Some think they do, in that they want to serve God, but they often chase after material things such as money or pleasure, husband, wife, parents, or kids. The Bible, in Matthew, says that no slave can serve two masters — either he'll hate the one and love the other, or be attracted to the one and despise the other. Jesus said this. Jesse also said that there is only one way to please God — by not doubting. One man, attending for the first time, realized and admitted that he loved his daughters more than God. He also starts fights with his wife, because he judges her for repeated actions in the past and he can't let go of his anger about them. Jesse tells him that he must forgive his mother, because he married his mother — in that the spirit in his wife is the same spirit he hated in his mother, and he's attracted to what he hates. Jesse asks him if he's an alpha or beta male — he says he's alpha. Jesse says all people say that; men are embarrassed to admit they're beta males. Jesse himself said he's a beta male, because he must be honest with himself in order to overcome. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

At church, Jesse talked with newcomers about anger, forgiveness of parents and of self, alpha males versus beta males, and dealing with unreasonable people. VIDEO: https://youtu.be/SOijxtz1Pfw One man in his mid-fifties said his father told him he'd never amount to anything. He didn't talk with him for years, but reconnected and feels they have a good relationship now. But he does not talk to his divorced mother who abandoned them. He said he'd like a wife and kids, but never married. Jesse urged him to forgive both of them, and to work on his anger. He also encouraged him to begin to walk and exercise, as he'd reached 300 pounds in weight.Another man in his early thirties explained as best he knew how to forgive your parents. He did it several times with his parents. However, he feels upset with himself, living without a job or his own place. But Jesse recommended he not judge himself — simply accept reality with no anger and move forward with a clear mind.The younger man also asked where to find good Christian women for fellowship. Jesse joked that "fellowship" means "sex" — often the case with him when younger. Rather, men should seek first the kingdom of God, and all things will be added. Another young guy asked whether he should stop going out "to look for girls." You should not lie to yourself about your intentions or attempt to force a change in yourself, but instead simply remain aware of yourself and continue to seek what's right.Men and women of God should naturally live in the world, not hide from it. Some men do not even talk with women. One woman at church said that we should encourage marriage, and not delay it until people reach their 30s or 40s, as the world suggests. Jesse suggested 25 as a good age to marry, depending in individuals' circumstances.One man watching online asked if a real man asks his wife for sex. Another asked what a man should do if he catches his wife or girlfriend cheating — would he forgive or show compassion toward her? People who cheat do not generally repent. One man pointed out that an "alpha" man to his wife is like Christ to man — just as man of God would never want to cheat on God, so a woman would not want to cheat on a truly good man. Jesse strongly urged men not to have sex outside marriage — it is death. Even in marriage, do not be into sex. Do it until you've had all the children you want. Children of God should overcome their passions.Another man said that he felt he did not deserve to date — he judged himself as not a good person. This person says things like this commonly. He's attended church for years. Jesse told him that since he judges himself, no woman would want that, and so he gets what he deserves. As he judges himself, he also judges others. So drop judgment and live, or suffer and die.Lastly Jesse defined righteous anger — as discernment without emotional judgment. He also talked about how unreasonable children of the lie fight against our Second Amendment rights with emotional attacks. Eventually, if you do not understand how to deal with life properly (in your personal life, as well as public), you will give into their evil in one way or another. So overcome anger and evil, pray, and seek first the kingdom of God. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Sunday, March 4, We talked about the question: Were you born in sin? We also discussed with a man and his wife about anger, forgiveness, mothers, fathers, and marriage. We also talked a little about how preachers and others quote the scriptures rather than communicating normally — such as in an interview Jesse did on Apologia Studios with Pastor Jeff Durbin of Arizona. VIDEO: https://youtu.be/TwnnBKZef3s Jesse urged the regulars, and everyone, not to preach at people after service, particularly not new people. Rather, if you want to introducer yourself, keep it light and friendly. If people talk about their problems in church, don't talk to them about their problems after church — but just make small talk; people don't need or want more advice after church, and it's a turnoff to get unsolicited advice. We talked about the question: Were you born in sin? Or, asked perhaps more clearly, were you born a sinner? Many said yes, some said no, and others did not know. Jesse wants people to know for themselves, and not just repeat what they've learned from others, or assume they correctly understand the Bible. In the Psalms it says, "Surely I was steeped in sin at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me." But what does that mean? Was his mother sinful and passed it to him? Mothers who are angry in pregnancy may possibly pass that spirit to the child in the womb. Some said that children are innocent, but they grow sinful and many only get worse as adults. Does the Bible say that we are born in sin? It says that through one man, Adam, sin entered the world, and all have sinned — but it says that so through one man, Christ, we overcome sin. A man who'd joined us once in the past brought his wife, and they talked about anger and dealing with their mothers, and the fact both were raised without their fathers around — both their fathers have died. The man said his mother only upset him once, but he never talked with his father about what it was like growing up without him. They both talked about anger and sin. He admitted that he got angry driving to church today on the road, but that he doesn't act out on it, as that is unwise. Jesse also talked about an interview he did with a Pastor Jeff Durbin of Arizona — Apologia Studios — in which the pastor and others kept quoting the scriptures and accusing Jesse of being like Mormons or Muslims or other religions that Jesse knows nothing about. One man who listened to the interview noted that while they explained vague ways that their doctrine could be construed as true, Jesse was saying things, without quoting scripture and verse, that are actually directly supported by the Bible, such as that you should stop sinning if you are born again of God. Jesse did point out that one translation of deceives people when it says we don't "practice sin" — which is something one man mentioned in church. How many times do you sin in order to be "practicing sin"?

At Church, Jesse talked about the Florida school shooting and the spiritual issues affecting all people. He also discussed forgiving mothers with newcomers.At the beginning of the service, Jesse asked people if they ever felt depressed, shy, and other emotions. Everyone answered “yes.” Jesse connected these emotions to 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz, who shot and killed at least 17 people at a school in Florida, injuring dozens more. Cruz reportedly said voices in his head told him to commit the murders. Jesse pointed out that whichever “god” we serve controls us — whether the real God or the prince of darkness.Therefore, the problem is spiritual, and not “guns,” nor even “mental illness.”After Jesse finished his point, a young black man watching online from Germany asked a personal question. He said that he lost all of his anger and gained confidence, but at 19 he sleeps with women. Should he continue the sex, or stop? Jesse urged him to stop that. Women want men to do right — not have sex with them until marriage.A number of newcomers joined Church in-person today — some from Jesse’s recent interview on Stefan Molyneux’s Freedomain Radio, and others from Jesse’s own YouTube videos.Two brothers spoke at-length with Jesse in Church regarding their mother. One man went through the 12-step program, now sober 13 years. He called it “far out” advice to abstain from sex in order to see if his girlfriend respected him. He blamed himself for his anger, addictions, and issues, and couldn’t bring himself to see where his mother went wrong. Jesse urged him to speak honestly with her, allow her to react how she will, but to forgive her — apologize for resenting her for what she did to him.The brothers’ half-brother also attended today. He said that he and his father did “a lot of forgiving.” But Jesse pointed out that real forgiveness is a one-time thing. Once you let go of anger completely, you’re done with it.We went overtime today for church, with so many new people sharing good conversation. One woman said that she realized at a young age that her mother did the best she could — so she did not feel anger toward her. She and her fiancé agreed to avoid sex until marriage. Jesse asserted to the people that sex is for having children — or, if you cannot control yourself, it’s best to marry before having sex. But it’s best to gain self-control, and get to know the person, rather than to marry simply to have sex.Jesse quickly answered two questions from a person online: What is the role of the Bible in our lives? If we don’t have freewill, why are we punished for sin? Jesse said to read, but not get into knowledge, which brings pride. We do not have freewill. Either God or Satan guides us based on the inclination of our heart. But God does not punish us — Satan does. God forgives us. But an angry, sinful person will not enter into the kingdom of God.Practice the Silent Prayer found on the BOND Church page.

Sun, Feb 11: At Church, a woman told about a murder in her family the other week. Her nephew killed his wife, cut her up, put her in a suitcase, and tried to burn her body! He was caught and is in jail, headed for prison. She thought of sending him money, but won’t. Jesse told her to let him find Jesus, and stay out of his way. Don't be mama and "help" him. She feels guilty because she took her younger sister, the killer's mother, out to drink at bars when he was a child. She cheated on her husband at that time. She left her husband for another man. Jesse tells of guys he interviewed for The Fallen State who encouraged their wives to be friends and go out; all of them cheated on the men, getting drunk and coming home at 3am. This woman said she loved when her husband told her she couldn't go out. Women like discipline from their husbands or father, as men appreciate discipline from Christ. (Jesse jokes that women don't look right being alcoholic.) Jesse answers an online question on the purpose of Church: to edify one another. Another person watching online asked about losing a mother at 7, being 24 now, and having empty feelings. Jesse said not to assume that it's from missing a mother. Jesse taught an ethics class at BOND Leadership Academy and told students that it's good to be bored. Relax and go through feelings. Practice the Silent Prayer http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Have you tried to get revenge? One man tried to get revenge on a girlfriend and best friend who cheated. He got with his best friend's girlfriend, but felt empty. Revenge is not yours to take. You only set yourself up for destruction. The Bible says: Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. ... Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. - Romans 12: 17-19 Jesse wrote an article in WND: Destroying Men Also Hurts Women and Children 60 years ago or so, women were really pushing the feminist movement against men, similar to the homosexual movement pretending they just wanted to come out of the closet — then they called it a "civil rights" issue, and America let them get out of control. They started crying "rape culture" on college campuses, one mattress girl accusing a guy she had sex with of rape, and bringing phony stats. With the Me Too and Time's Up movements, women are accusing men of sexual harassment and sexual assault, and the men are losing their jobs. Men are created to provide. If you take that away, he may commit suicide — there often feels like there's no reason to live! Two White House male staffers were accused by ex-wives of spousal abuse, physical and verbal abuse. One case was about 15 years ago! One ex-wife disbelieved her ex-husband's other ex-wife's accusations, as she'd never known him to be violent or abusive. Women, your sons, grandsons, great grandsons will suffer from these laws that come into effect if we allow this to continue. Evil hates good, and men represent good — even when they're weak! Men and women on the side of good, wake up! Evil only gets worse and destroys you — even in your personal life. They're out for white men, because black and Hispanic men have already been destroyed for the most part. They made examples of white men like Donald Sterling by taking his Clippers NBA basketball team (not football team) by calling him "racist" for speaking his mind in private. President Donald Trump tweeted: People’s lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere allegation. Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some are new. There is no recovery for someone falsely accused – life and career are gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due Process?Hopefully with the president speaking out, it will change.

Sunday, Feb 4, Jesse talked about that February marks his nonprofit BOND's 28th anniversary. We've been around 28 years rebuilding the family by rebuilding the man. Jesse Lee Peterson started the Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny after he realized that it wasn't "racism" that holds blacks back, but the lack of moral character — brought on at root by unforgiveness toward mothers and a separation from fathers. Before all this, Jesse prayed to God to let him see himself. He listened to a preacher on the radio say that you must pray quietly and forgive to enter the kingdom of heaven. So he sat and prayed and saw that he had anger toward his mother for separating him from his father, so he went and apologized to her for resenting her, for hating her, and he returned to his father as well. He started a radio show in Los Angeles to spread the good news, but many blacks called him names, threatened the radio station, and so he was kicked off the station. The Los Angeles Times did a story on him, then Phil Donahue and Geraldo interviewed him, and one thing led to another. Jesse thanked all of the BOND supporters, staff and volunteers for their prayers and help over the last 28 years. We look forward to continuing the work. Jesse also talked about the Biblical Question of the Week: Is the Bible the inspired Word of God, or were the men who wrote it inspired? Many people responded with what they believe. Some didn't know the difference. The men who wrote it were inspired. We must be born again and live by revelation, take every thought captive, know ourselves, and not listen to our thoughts which are from Satan. Our theme this year is to know thyself — self-knowledge. We also read from the verse that says to whom much is given, much is required. It's best not to know the truth if you are not committed to it. If you do the silent prayer, commit to it. God will hold you responsible for your knowledge. So seek first the kingdom of Heaven, and His right way. Jesus said in Luke 12 :47-48, "And that servant who knew his master’s will, and did not prepare himself or do according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he who did not know, yet committed things deserving of stripes, shall be beaten with few. For everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be required; and to whom much has been committed, of him they will ask the more." http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Sunday, Jan 28: At Church, a man talked about having turned down a good business opportunity because he'd judged the people involved. This reminded Jesse of a caller on his radio show who had judged Donald Trump for his past, not realizing he too had sin in his past, and did not want to be judged for it. Many people relate in that they judge and don't realize it — they think they're being smart. Intellectuals who are puffed up on their knowledge look down on and obsess over people like Donald Trump and Jesse Lee Peterson who aren't like them. It's a battle of good versus evil — evil is subject to good, because evil hates good. People asked about what to do when you catch yourself judging, and what it means to judge with righteous judgment. Jesse answered a number of questions from the audience and people watching online. A man mentioned his children were getting upset that his ex-wife was bringing different guys home. Jesse recommended he let her know, but he's given up warning her about how her wrongdoing affects the children. Another man online said his brother is was an alcoholic addict with a wife, child and stepchild — he relapsed and got a DUI last night. You can only help people who truly are ready to receive help. God doesn't help you until you're ready for his help. So many don't want help, or only pretend to want help — for example, even churchgoing people do not pray everyday with the Silent Prayer Jesse recommends. Jesse talked about a man who called his show, Daniel from Chicago, who was ready for the truth and accepted it, that he was angry all the time for no reason, and needed to forgive his father and mother. Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/3E0Xoh4YiZs Jesse had people read from Matthew 5 verses 11-12, in which Jesus Christ said, "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." When you're not in the fallen state, God gives you a space within yourself — of protection from the attacks from wicked people. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Sun, Jan 21, we discussed the Biblical Question from Matthew: What is faith? Jesse addressed a couple of YouTube comments about not thinking about your life — living without doubt. We talked about evil, about the need to forgive your mother and father. You cannot be born again or know God unless you forgive — especially the father, who represents Christ on earth. Simply saying, "I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior" means nothing if you do not forgive — Christ said that we should pray, "Forgive us as we forgive others." New people showed up, including the girlfriend of a 25-year-old man who was at Church last week with his mother. Some black young ladies also visited. All really appreciated Jesse, even though they had thoughts about life that were not right. One woman was emotional but wanted to touch others with love. But love is not emotional. Another remained with her boyfriend to make him a better man — but that does not work!

Sunday, January 14, 2018: We talk about President Trump's alleged "s—hole countries" comment, the fact that people can't handle truth. We read from the parable of the wicked tenants of a vineyard who beat the landlord's servants who came to collect, then killed his son. Do you know the difference when something is revealed to you, versus coming from intellectual knowledge? We talked about the quote, "The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone." What cornerstone have you rejected in your life? We take about anger and our theme of self-knowledge. Criticism and praise are both imposters; when you live from within you see this. A mother and her 25-year-old son visited, and Jesse talked extensively with them about forgiveness, anger, moving out of his mother's house, and dealing with relationships such as his girlfriend and not having sex until marriage.

Sunday, Jan 7, Jesse talked about the reality that we should doubt every thought that enters our minds. Don’t listen to them, don’t engage with them. Our thoughts are not from God, but are lies from Satan. Doubt the lies of your father the devil, so that you can believe the truth and become a child of God. Adam doubted the truth believed the lie. Thanks to Christ, we can doubt the lie and believe the truth. Not everybody was able to see that every thought we get is a lie. So we discussed this. One man watching online asked: How do you know yourself really? Jesse was about to ask this same thing. So we also talked about our theme this year: Self-knowledge. Note that self-knowledge is not self-analysis. Don’t try to analyze yourself — that will not work. Rather, take up your cross daily, relax in suffering and temptation rather than going with them and giving into them. And do what’s in front of you to do. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Sunday, Dec 31, 2017: As we did last New Year, Jesse led the church in a Silent Prayer, which he urges people commit to do. We also talked about the previous Biblical Question of the Week: How do you know when you're born again? Jesse talked about his experience (which he also discussed during his radio show on Friday, Dec 29, Hour 3). Jesse pointed out ways people don't see life or human nature correctly, due to blindness to spiritual principles. Jesse referenced a point James made on The Hake Report, where he quoted Bill O'Reilly saying that when you're given an opportunity, take it! Some don't take their opportunities that God gives them, then feel ignored by God.

On Christmas Eve, Jesse talked about his Biblical Question of the Week: How do you see God? In John chapter 3 verses 1-8, Jesus said that unless you are born again, you cannot see God. Jesse sees God as his Father, which happened after he returned to his earthly father. A mother's (or father's) emotional "love" is not real love, but comes from anger, from hate. Hence kids go out-of-wack as they grow up. Anger awakens emotions, sexual appetite and other addictions. Know yourself by watching what's going on inside you, recognizing that something is driving you and warring within you. Be conscious so that you remain in the presence of God, and then you can overcome your issues. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Sunday, Dec 17, we cover stories such as from CNS News: An entire family turned transgender (links below). Jesse wrote in WorldNetDaily: Is the Black Woman 'God' in Alabama? Washington Examiner reported that 77 percent of births to black native-born Americans in 2015 were out-of-wedlock — to single mothers. 49 percent of Hispanic immigrant births were out-of-wedlock, while 57 percent of Hispanic births to mothers born here were to unwed mothers. Then we talked about relationships, dating, and marriage, as well as forgiving mothers and fathers. One man talked about breaking free of his parents, admitting to them that he hated them, apologizing and forgiving them. He brought his girlfriend down from San Francisco to join our meeting — and she likes and agrees with Jesse's message. Do not have sex before marriage — the man will cheat and will see any woman who has sex out-of-wedlock as a w***e. Men are looking for a good woman who will not have sex with him until marriage, although they will not tell you this. One woman talks about dealing with the father of their child, who she says is causing trouble for her and their child, forcing the child to accept and communicate with his new girlfriend. Jesse urges her to let him go and get over her own anger. People watching Church online asked about pornography — Jesse said that it's not good to do, but not to judge or hate yourself for whatever you're into. That way you don't sink further into it, playing God. Instead, by accepting reality, God helps you to overcome it. http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Get full access to BOND / JLP at rebuildingtheman.substack.com/subscribe

Sunday, Dec 10, 2017: We touched on things in the news (Judge Roy Moore's sexual harassment accuser, who with Gloria Allred tried to use a yearbook as "evidence" against him), then talked about how "love conquers all." What does it mean? How? If you have anger, you don't truly know. And how should young parents raise their kids in a godly home? Leave the children alone and work on yourself — and drop the "Christian talk." Jesse urged people to watch The Great White Hope (President Trump) to see how he handles situations. Children of God don't overreact to the issues of life. Donald Trump sets a good example of this.

VIDEO: https://youtu.be/wejBhbN1eGk From Nov 26, 2017: Jesse told the story of a friend’s son who committed suicide on Thanksgiving Day. He jumped off a bridge. He was 41-years-old. Why didn’t he overcome his issues and learn how to deal with life in the right way? It’s a spiritual battle, and we cannot overcome our own issues. (Suicide is selfish. Many people commit suicide over the holidays. This man was taking psychotropic drugs. He hated his father, and also himself.) http://rebuildingtheman.com/church Jesse asked people if they know themselves or see themselves. When you know yourself, you don’t care what others think. But you can’t make it happen. You must endure. You must forgive your father and mother. You must not judge or hate yourself or anyone. Rather, know yourself. Self-knowledge is a state of nonjudgmental attention, without asking, “Why?” In reality, we are no good (but in our fallen state we think we are somebody). Why shouldn’t you suffer? Who are you that you do not deserve what you get in life? So pray. Assignment for this week: Pay attention to yourself, what the devils telling you, what you’re feeling and thinking. Watch that without any opinion, even though Satan tries to make you have an opinion. Do your prayer and put God first, pay attention throughout the day.
