Every Human Being Is an Idol Worshiper | Church 1/15/23

The world brings you up and down. Emergencies are in your mind. Why are you an idol worshiper? Because of thoughts! Church with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, January 15, 2023: If you didn't know your birthday, how old would you be? The world has ahold of you, with ups and downs: Brainwashing! // A man asks about "building a nest egg." He feels he's on an upward trajectory, and would be bored without ups and downs. // One man's son is disappointed in him; he's a "loser," and will be dead in 20 years! Why want to leave a "legacy"? Why go to your son with your problems? // Another man saved money, and doesn't loan to family — except in "emergency" cases. God does not help us in emergencies; in Him there is no emergency. That's Satan's world of thoughts and imagination! // Biblical Question: All human beings are idol worshipers. Why? Do you want to overcome it? Jesus asked a lame man if he wanted to be healed. // One lady likes being "put together" like her mother. // A songwriter uses her talent to feel closer to God. // Every human being worships thoughts. // Romans 12: 1-2, I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. // Resist the Devil by resisting the thoughts. Whatever they tell you to do, don't. Do the Silent Prayer. You've been praying to the Devil. // ANNOUNCEMENT: Women's Forum third Thursday! // 0:00:00 Sun, Jan 15, 2023 0:01:48 Welcome to Church 0:03:50 If you didn't know your birthday, how old would you be? 0:15:20 JLP: If you had no idea, you'd never think about it 0:18:36 JLP story: Dr. Phil reaction.
