Are You a Slave to Thoughts? (Church 7/24/22)

Christianity's hated because darkness hates light. Biblical Question: Are you a slave to your thoughts? Stop trying to control things.

Church with Jesse Lee Peterson, Sunday, July 24, 2022: Christianity has under attack since Jesus's days (Christ who raised Lazarus), because darkness hates the light (John 11: 39-48 and John 3: 19-20). // We welcome first-timers, some of whom know nothing about JLP! // Biblical Question: Are you a slave to your thoughts? (Jesse discussed this at the Women's Forum on Thursday.) One man gets exhausted reading and seeking knowledge. A newcomer feels crazy with the battle between her "higher and lower self." Another driven man calls his mother every day. Can you be "too present"? //

After Nick reads from 2 Corinthians, which says the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life, Jesse makes his point: You're not in control. If you ever have fear or doubt, you're a slave to thoughts. Reality is within, out of thoughts. Let life happen; lay your weapons down. You're not protecting yourself, but the ego, the not-you. //
