If the emotional quality of your life and relationships were solely dependent on how smart you were then you wouldn t need a teacher.  But that isn t the case.  A book can t teach or model for you self acceptance, respect, love, or gratitude.   Being happy in this chaotic world isn t based on how smart you are.  Even changing beliefs or negative thoughts isn t easier because you have a high IQ. As this free audio explains, mastering your mind and emotions is more like a skill.  Swimming, playing an musical instrument, or flying an airplane are all skills.  If you wanted to learn any of these skills would you get a coach or mentor?    Then if you desired to change your emotional reactions and be happy, wouldn t it make sense to get some good guidance as well?  More about this in this free audio.

the adl likes to lie about Pastor Peters the following is a copy and past of the lieing adl website. I find it is better to just watch him for yourself on youtube and www.scripturesforamerica.com and decide for your self. His Identity " Peter J. "Pete" Peters, a self-described rancher with a working ranch in Wyoming, was born and raised in western Nebraska, where he graduated from the University of Nebraska School of Agriculture. He subsequently earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Business and Economics from Colorado State University and went to work for the United States Department of Agriculture. While in his early 30s, he received a Bachelor of Sacred Literature degree from the Church of Christ Bible Training School in Gering, Nebraska. Since 1977, Peters has been pastor of the LaPorte Church of Christ, a Christian Identity church with fewer than 100 parishioners in LaPorte, Colorado, a community on the banks of the Cache La Poudre River northwest of Fort Collins. From the pulpit, Peters has expounded prolifically on Identity's biblical views, which include the belief that Jews are spiritually degraded and pose a threat to civilization, that blacks and other people of color are inferior to whites, that homosexuals should be executed and that northern European whites and their American descendants are the "chosen people" of scriptural prophecy. While Peters and his church have been prominent in the Identity movement for years, he has of late disavowed the term "Identity" because of its negative connotations. His Web site now proclaims: "We are NOT 'Gay,' We are NOT Cannibals and We Certainly are NOT 'Identity.'" In an online article in 2000, Peters charged that "certain Jews of this day attempt to take the Israel truth labeled Identity and make it into racism, violence, Nazism and hatred in the minds of the populace." He argued that "just as it would neither be wise nor a good Christian witness to claim to be 'gay,' so it is with the label Identity. Now that the meaning has been transformed by our enemies, it is now foolish for one to call himself an 'Identity Christian.'" Peters described himself instead as "a Christian who is part of the restoration movement now underway -- a movement in which Christian Americans call themselves simply 'Christian.'" Promoting Scriptures for America Peters has promoted Scriptures for America Worldwide, the outreach arm of his church, as "dedicated to preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to revealing to the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic and kindred peoples of the world their true Biblical identity." He alleges that the 12 tribes of Israel consist of "the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Celtic, Scandinavian and kindred peoples -- the peoples who comprise the white race which settled the North American continent, forming the bedrock population of the United States of America." He has said, "We are not 'Judeo-Christians' -- a term which is an oxymoron, if ever there was one. We neither follow nor promote the so-called 'Judeo-Christian ethic.' We are Christians." He has charged that "anti-Christ Jews" have "warred against the truth" to "demonize the label Christian." SFAW's ministry has been promoted through shortwave radio programs featuring Peters as well as programs on local radio stations in the United States. Peters launched a twice-weekly radio show called "Truth for The Times" in 1993; the program was pulled by the Keystone Inspirational Network in 1995 -- an action which Peters blamed in part on "the antichrist ADL" -- but subsequently returned to the air on several local stations. His signature "Scriptures for America" broadcast airs regularly on shortwave radio. Other SFAW outlets include a Web site, retreats and seminars, The Scriptures for America Worldwide Newsletter, pamphlets and audiocassettes of Peters' sermons as well as the messages of a number of like-minded extremists. The titles of Peters' tapes convey his conspiratorially anti-gay and anti-Jewish message: * "The Teachings of Jesus and the Jews on Judaism," promoted as "The Jews and Christ expose the antichrist teachings of Judaism." * "Will the Real Hate Group Please Stand Up?" -- "THEY control the media. THEY promote Hollywood filth. THEY are IMPOSTERS! THEY go unexposed by the church...and preachers of our land. Find out who THEY are." * "Skinheads -- S.O.S. Troops of the Right" * "Intolerance of, Discrimination Against and the Death Penalty for Homosexuals is prescribed in the Bible" * "The Aids Plague Farce" Scriptures for America audiocassette tapes by others have included: "The Six Million Holocaust" by Ernst Zundel, a pro-Nazi propagandist and Holocaust denier; "The Point of No Return" by Jack Mohr, a Mississippi-based anti-Jewish propagandist and Identity adherent; and "The Greatest Conspiracy" by Earl Jones, a New Mexico-based Identity minister. Building a Reputation Peters and his church first came to national attention in 1985 when Colorado newspapers reported that several members of The Order, the most violent far-right terrorist group of the 1980s, had attended the LaPorte Church of Christ during their criminal heyday. Subsequent investigation into The Order's activities revealed a string of firebombings, armed robberies, counterfeiting and the execution of one of their own members suspected of disloyalty. In 1987 two members of The Order were convicted and sentenced to prison terms of 150 years in connection with the murder in June 1984 of Alan Berg, a Jewish talk-show host in Denver. Several months earlier, in February 1984, Peters, along with Jack Mohr, appeared on Berg's program and Berg angrily confronted the two men about their white supremacist views. The next episode of public exposure for the church was more mundane but threatened its operations and reputation. In 1988, it became immersed in a local tax dispute, following its purchase of $1,040 worth of radio and newspaper ads to help defeat a ballot initiative extending civil rights protection to gays and lesbians in nearby Fort Collins, Colorado. In July 1989, the Colorado secretary of state ruled, in connection with the ads, that the church had failed to comply with campaign reform law and instituted a $10-a-day fine until required forms were filed and taxes paid. (The state's Campaign Reform Act requires groups that seek donations or make expenditures for political campaigns to file organizational and financial documents with the Secretary of State's office, which Peters refused to do.) In November 1992, after appeals by the church failed, and the daily penalty had grown to more than $10,000, the state seized the church's savings account of $3,805. In February 1993, church equipment was taken to pay the balance of the fine and in May 1993 the state put the equipment up for auction. The Coloradoan of Ft. Collins reported that the state turned out to be the lone bidder for the goods and that its bid covered the fines and ended the controversy. Peters never submitted the campaign disclosure forms or paid the taxes and he claimed victory. In an ad in The Coloradoan, Peters said: "We have not settled in any way. We do not settle with extortionists and petty church thieves." Retreats and Conferences For several years, Peters has hosted Scriptures for America Bible retreats, "Family Bible Camp Conferences" and seminars that have attracted prominent figures on the extreme right. Peters' invitees have included Robert Brock, a black separatist who has been affiliated with Liberty Lobby, speaking in favor of the "Pace Amendment" (which aimed to repatriate to their places of origin African Americans and other "nonwhites," including Jews, Arabs and Hispanics); Richard Kelly Hoskins, an Identity ideologue who commin-gles anti-Semitism and racism with financial advice; Earl Jones, the Identity minister who heads Christian Crusade for Truth in Deming, New Mexico; and David Barley, head of America's Promise Ministries, an Identity group in Sandpoint, Idaho. In October 1992, Peters used his extensive far-right connections to convene a meeting in Estes Park, Colorado, that addressed the federal siege of white supremacist Randy Weaver's mountainside hideaway in Ruby Ridge, Idaho. Among the 160 in attendance were Richard G. Butler, founder and leader of Aryan Nations, and Louis Beam, an official of Aryan Nations and a former KKK Grand Dragon. At the meeting, the conferees formed a SWAT (Sacred Warfare Action Tactics) committee "to evaluate what our people would be forced to consider should tyranny and despotism become the order of the day." The SWAT committee recommended an essay by Beam in which he outlined a concept of "leaderless resistance," the formation of small, secret cells of violent activism directed against the federal government and its perceived allies -- a strategy now championed by a number of extremist leaders. The meeting has been seen by many observers as a watershed in the anti-government movement of the 1990s. Peters' promotional material for this "Special Gathering of Christian Men" was notable for its comparison of Weaver, and by extension all white supremacists, to victims of Nazism. In a flier, Peters depicted two possible responses to the Ruby Ridge incident -- apathy or engagement. To illustrate the first, he rephrased Martin Niemoller's famous anti-Nazi elegy: "They came for what they called WHITE Supremacists and WHITE Separatists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't one. Then they came for what they called radicals, right wingers and constitutionalists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't one of those either.... Then the New World Order came for me and by that time there was no one left to speak up." By contrast, portraying those who responded forcefully, Peters wrote: "They came for the alleged WHITE SUPREMACISTS and shed the innocent blood of a mother and her child. Then Christian men went to a Colorado mountain as one man before the God of their fathers to take counsel and speak up and to do what was right in the eyes of the Lord." Peters concluded by asking, "Now guess who is coming for who?" Peters has also participated in forums and retreats sponsored by other Identity groups, including America's Promise Ministries, and The Jubilee, a California-based Identity newspaper. At The Jubilee's Jubilation '96 gathering, which was held in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, Peters allegedly pulled out a white yarmulke, placed it on his head and performed a grotesque impression, then took it off, spit on it, wiped it across the seat of his pants and threw it on the floor. He reportedly received a standing ovation from the 500 attendees. On Jews and Judaism Peters has compiled a substantial record of anti-Jewish sentiment: * In a 1990 sermon, he insinuated, in the form of questions, stereo-typically conspiratorial views of Jewish power: "Is there a Jewish conspiracy against America? Do Jews control America's media? Do Jews have a death grip on America's government? Are Jews left-wing, liberal anti-gunners? Do Jews cry anti-Semitism as a weapon to suppress the truth? Are Jews wanting to disarm Americans? [sic] Do Jews prevent a free press in America? Are Jews against freedom in America? Do Jews want total people control? Are Jews liars? Do Jews want to put America under tyranny? Must Jews leave America if America is to survive? "These are all questions that you can answer from 'The Inadvertent Confessions of a Jew,' the message of this cassette tape," Peters said. * In July 1996, in a cover story about Identity in Media Bypass, a conspiracy-oriented magazine, Peters was quoted as saying: "Identity is the only Christian faith left in this country that opposes and exposes the myth of Judaism." Also in 1996, in an article entitled "Framing Deceit," Peters stated: "All my life, I had been told the lie that the modern-day people we call 'Jews' were God's Chosen People: the literal descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob... But my own lengthy studies convinced me that they were instead an altogether different race, the very instigators of the leftist, socialist tides sweeping America." * In a 1998 Scriptures for America newsletter, Peters quoted from The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, a notorious anti-Semitic forgery, calling it "a blue- print for world conquest" which he was making available "for a $9.00 offering." In a piece entitled "What Christians Need To Know Concerning The Proposed New World Order," Peters complained: "The truth concerning the Jewish push for their socialistic, communistic, antichrist, One-World government is difficult to get out since they control the media and use the hysterical smear label (and misnomer) of anti-Semitism when ever someone has the courage to shed light on their evil deeds. Plus, most (particularly ministers) cower for 'Fear of the Jew'." [sic] On Purported Jewish Conspiracies Although now avoiding the Identity label, Peters continues to warn of purported Jewish conspiracies. He has proclaimed on his Scriptures for America site: The same wealthy, anti-Christ sect which categorizes evangelistic efforts of Baptists as 'coercion, hatred and violence,' has appointed itself a monitor of what it terms 'hate groups.' It spends vast sums writing propaganda against these groups and distributing its propaganda to law enforcement agencies across the land. The same sect is in control of the nation's news and entertainment media, which it also uses to disseminate its propaganda. To the same end, in a 2000 SFAW newsletter, Peters took note of the national conventions of the major political parties and warned, "Christians, Beware of the Esoteric Message by Hillary Rodham Clinton." He stated: "In Hillary's speech at the Democratic convention, she said of Al Gore and his Jewish running mate -- 'They have what it takes and they'll do what it takes.'" He added: "Esoterically, this rod of Ham was telling her people that the man she was endorsing had what it takes to advance the Jewish, Communist dream of one world government....When she said 'they'll do what it takes', she was telling her people, these men will not hesitate to implement any means to meet the desired end." (It should also be noted that Peters's wife Cheri, who died of cancer in October 1998, was an active participant in the ministry, writing a column for Scriptures for America entitled "For Women Only." Her writings merged hostility toward traditional feminism with anti-Semitism: in a 1989 column, for instance, she referred to abortion clinics as places where women are "abused and mutilated by Talmudic butchers." Peters remarried in 1999.) In January 2001, Scriptures for America's Web site began publication of Identity leader Jack Mohr's writings and indicated that printed copies of his work could be obtained from the group. Included in Mohr's materials on the site was a "Fall Intelligence Report -- 2000" which charged: "Today, we see a planned, vicious attack against White society. This is all part of the plan by International Zionism, as outlined in their Holy Book, the Talmud, to destroy White Christian Civilization. In spite of all denials to the contrary, it is there to see, for those who are willing to look." Conclusion For Peters, battling the Jewish plot for world domination and vaunting the superiority of right-believing white Christians is an all-encompassing spiritual commitment. As his success in organizing other Identity and far-right activists; in disseminating hundreds of sermons, tracts and articles and in maintaining a regular media presence all indicate, he has been able to connect with a substantial audience. Given his ability to refine his message as circumstances demand, he seems likely to remain a significant presence on the far right. " adl lie website

by Pastor Peter J. Peters Jesus made it clear when He said, Truly I say to you unless you are converted and become like children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 18:3). Children have no problems believing in magic. Perhaps that s why the Harry Potter books are the best selling of children s books. Children have always loved fairy tales because they are of magic, magicians, witches, spells, etc. There is a hidden agenda behind the great selling books about Harry Potter. It is sold as fiction and marketed as fiction, but the truth is magic is not fiction. The Harry Potter books have and F on the spine for it to stand as fiction (i.e. not true), but the truth is magic truly does exist and truly does work. That s the same satanic plot of Satan behind all those Disneyland fairytale cartoons; they are used to make us think it s all just a fairy tale. That is the hidden satanic purpose behind magic shows or magic acts as they are called. A more modern day term for a magician is illusionist. The hidden agenda of Satan is to make people believe it s all an act; it s all an illusion. In other words, today the majority of the population just does not believe in magic, does not believe magic exists, does not believe that the magic works, even though there is a phrase well familiar to them works like magic. And even though the Bible teaches there is such a thing as magic and that magic works. Except we become like a child, we cannot have the Kingdom. A child has no problem believing in magic. The problem with God s people today is they have lost their child-like faith and thus do not really believe their Bible. It s a magic spell or the deceptive sorcery of Babylon (Revelation 18:23). They don t even believe there really are such things as witches, though the Bible teaches there are; see Deuteronomy 18:16 and Exodus 22:18 (and even though their country is full of them, full of witchcraft organizations, witchcraft books, etc). Magicians, sorcery, magic, witches are all in the Bible and are all of hell and Satan. Christians, however, have the greater power over such dark powers and forces. The Bible teaches this (Luke 10:19) and teaches that those converted to Christianity burned their books on magic (the Jewish Kabala is a book on magic). The bottom line is that magic is being used by the children of the devil (John 8:44) against us, but we can cause it to cease through prayer in the name of Jesus Christ. The present adverse weather occurrences are Day of the Lord events, and such phenomena went on with the Day of the Lord events when God s people were released from Egyptian captivity (Psalms 77:15-20). At that time there were magicians of Pharaoh opposing God, but their power came to an end when the boils came upon them (Exodus 9:11). Micah prophesies the sorcery power will cease. I will cut off sorceries from your hand, and you will have fortunetellers no more. I will cut off your carved images and your sacred pillars form among you, So that you will no longer bow down To the work of your hands. I will root out your Asherim from among you and destroy your cities. And I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath on the nations which have not obeyed. - Micah 5:12-15 The Bible story of Moses leading his people out of Egypt is not a fairy tale. It is not a fictional story and it is not unlike a story of magic. We might not like to hear it put in those terms. Admittedly, there is a difference but miracles work like magic. Let s face it, there is a similarity between a witch or sorcerer waving a wand and miraculously turning water into blood and Moses taking his staff, waving it and turning water into blood. Then the LORD said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Take your staff and stretch out you hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their reservoirs of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone. So Moses and Aaron did even as the LORD had commanded. And he lifted up the staff and struck the water that was in the Nile, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, and all the water that was in the Nile was turned to blood. And the fish that were in the Nile died, and the Nile became foul, so that the Egyptians could not drink water from the Nile. And the blood was through all the land of Egypt. But the magicians of Egypt did the same with their secret arts; and Pharaoh s heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had said. - Exodus 7:19-22 NASB If you don t believe in magic, then why do you say you believe the Bible? To say you don t believe in magic and to say you do believe your Bible is to be double minded. Double-minded people are condemned by the Bible, being called unstable. But let him ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. - James 1:6-8 Your Bible teaches there is magic and that magic works. It tells of the magician of Pharaoh in the book of Exodus and their workings. There prophet Ezekiel tells us of the Hebrew woman who started using it and God condemned them for it, but he did not deny it or deny that magic works. Fact is, if you read the following taken from Ezekiel chapter 13 as given in the Today s English Version, you see it has power to potentially harm and kill people and can cause people not to give up evil and save their lives i.e. repent. The LORD said, Now, mortal man, look at the women among your people who make up predictions. Denounce them and tell them what the Sovereign LORD is saying to them: You women are doomed! You sew magic wristbands for everyone and make magic scarves for everyone to wear on their heads, so that they can have power over other people s lives. You want to possess the power of life and death over my people and to use it for your own benefit. You dishonor me in front of my people in order to get a few handfuls of barley and a few pieces of bread. You kill people who don t deserve to die, and you keep people alive who don t deserve to live. So you tell lies to my people, and they believe you. Now this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I hate the wristbands that you use in your attempt to control life and death. I will rip them off your arms and set free the people that you were controlling. I will rip off your scarves and let my people escape from your power once and for all. Then you will know that I am the LORD. By your lies you discourage good people, whom I do not wish to hurt. You prevent evil people from giving up evil and saving their lives. So now you false visions and misleading predictions are over. I am rescuing my people from your power, so that you will know that I am the LORD. - Ezekiel 14:1 Perhaps the reason few pray, and the few who do really pray in faith, is because they don t believe in magic since there is such a close parallel between magic and miracles. Now with all that said, Christians are to have nothing to do with magic, the illusionist kind or the real stuff, and they are not to allow their children to read the Harry Potter books about magic. The Bible clearly teaches the Christians in the first century turned away from it and burned their books about magic. The name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified. Many also of those who had believed kept coming, confessing and disclosing their practices. And many of those who practiced magic brought their books together and began burning them in the sight of all; and they counted up the price of them and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So the word of the Lord was growing mightily and prevailing. - Acts 19:17-20 So in conclusion, the purpose of magic acts or shows is to make you think it s all an act, all a show. Now, I want to say the purpose of books like Harry Potter is to get the adults to believe there is not such a thing as magic, and to get their children who do read them to believe in it. The purpose of the fairy tales is to make you think magic only happens in fairy tales.

Pastor Peters explains how spell casting, dialectical materialism, and double-mindedness works and how it s being used to try to remove scripture concerning homosexuals out of the Bible. Also, he will talk some about what is needed for prayers of faith concerning the sick. by Pastor Peter J.

The purpose of the fairy tales is to make you think magic only happens in fairy tales.

If you have little kids you might not have tackled this, but my step children are largely step adults, so I have had to straddle being candid and being a role model. Years ago, attending one of my hippie schools, I was riding in a car with my best friend from 7th grade, her mom, two of her mom s friends, and one of their kids. AS THEY PASSED AROUND A JOINT.

Sure, I said, wanting to look cool, and I took the joint from my friend. I had no idea what I was doing. But even then, I had the sneaking suspicion that this behavior was inappropriate for parents. That friendship was short lived. Share
