Only God can wake you up. But you prevent seeing with anger, ego, and knowledge. Oprah lied to her followers! Romans 13: 11-14 — Wake up!

BOND Archive Sunday Service, November 24, 2013: You cannot change yourself. Only a few ever do change. //

Jesse Lee Peterson tells of counseling with a woman in her 60s who at first denied resenting her mother. But then she admitted to trying not to be like her; she failed! She was surprised by the truth that she needs to forgive a man who assaulted her. She accepted this upon hearing it, unlike many — ready to stop suffering. // Jesse tells another story of counseling with a father and son. //

We are possessed by a spirit passed down from our parents. We are not ourselves. // Even adopted children yearn for their real fathers and mothers. The father represents Christ. // Don't make up what you believe your root issues are. Let God reveal it. // Men have difficulty accepting that they're faking manhood, that they act like women. //

The ego runs deep and wide: Famous black woman Oprah Winfrey told a damaging lie that impressional blacks who look to "leaders" believe. Anger is encouraged among blacks, while the youth commit assaults on whites, without regard for others. // When you're born again, you overcome false identities with race or gender — you see the spirit driving people. //

It's unfortunate that people learn and repeat true things from the Bible and preachers; it builds people's ego, holding them back from being born again. // Romans 13: 11-14 urges people to wake up, and stop sleeping. Get away from licentiousness. //
