This is what Dr. Glen Sunshine tell us we ought to do during the Lenten season. Listen for yourself and please, please, discern the subtilties of these religious leaders in moving you away from Christ and back to yourself. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/223231512183009 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 23 Feb 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rick Peterson 0:09:51 no Rick Peterson - Lies My Preachers Told Me https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/22323035265791 Over church history, the institution we know as the Roman Church sought to "Christianize" many pagan, destrutive pratices. Lent is one of those seasonal practices. Lent as we know it today did not exist before the fourth century, and the church leaders in league with Constantine brought the many differing forms of fastings and practices into one conforming practice. But we discover in this lessson that God is not indifferent to these observances, nor should we be. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/22323035265791 Religion & Spirituality Wed, 22 Feb 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rick Peterson 0:27:38 no Rick Peterson - Lies My Preachers Told Me https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/131231848275392 Reading the New Testament through the eyes of Luther or Calvin or Wesley can be dangerous. We must read the New Testament through the eyes of the apostles. after all, they wrote it. One immediate discovery is that Paul's primary concern is with continuing into the Christian life on the same basis by which we entered it, that is, by hearing with faith through the Spirit. To do otherwise is to become "bewitched" and estranged from Christ. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/131231848275392 Religion & Spirituality Tue, 31 Jan 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rick Peterson 0:19:07 no Rick Peterson - Lies My Preachers Told Me https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/12723211147166 This is the 3rd installment of an examination of whether the believer is under the so-called "Moral Law" (Ten Commandments). If the believer is not under law but under grace, how then did so much of Protestantism begin to teach otherwise For despite their many protests to the contrary, to teach that the believer's conscience and conduct is subject to the Mosaic Law, is an accursed "different gospel." https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/12723211147166 Religion & Spirituality Fri, 27 Jan 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rick Peterson 0:49:56 no Rick Peterson - Lies My Preachers Told Me https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/12623201451792 This is a continuing series entitled "Lies My Preachers Told Me." In this episode we examine the popular Protestant teaching that Christians, while not under the civil or ceremonial law, are nonetheless under the so-called, "moral law," which is scholar-speak meaning the Ten Commandments. Was Jesus' atonement sufficient to fulfill the moral law, or must we do so? Is the curse for non-tithers in Malachi still applicable? Is Sunday the Sabbath? https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/12623201451792 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 26 Jan 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rick Peterson 0:45:25 no Rick Peterson - Lies My Preachers Told Me https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/126232026258037 This is part two on whether or not those in Christ are under the so-called "Moral Law." In this episode, we examine the controversy of the law imposed upon Gentile converts in the early apostilic mission. This is no mere academic study, for what conclusion you draw carries serious implications for your spiritual and mental and relational health. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/126232026258037 Religion & Spirituality Thu, 26 Jan 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rick Peterson 0:46:23 no Rick Peterson - Lies My Preachers Told Me https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/123231555136884 This episode is the first of an important, on-going series of brief exhortations designed to help you find freedom from the lies commonly told by traditonalists. It is not hard to discern lies. One does not need be a scholar or hold a theological degree. But you must be willing to examine your current beliefs and practices, which is something, frankly, most people are not willing to do. The dangers of not doing so are terrifying. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/123231555136884 Religion & Spirituality Mon, 23 Jan 2023 12:00:00 +0000 Rick Peterson 0:18:22 no Rick Peterson - Lies My Preachers Told Me https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/cbrforchange/sermons/12323191827172 Do you remain a wretch, a vile, despairing sinner after being united to Christ?
