Let Us Beware - Part 3 of 3
May 11, 2020 04:00 - 22.8 MBPaul gave the Colossian church some warnings, but he also wrote about "welcomes." The Apostle first pointed out some poisonous plants to avoid: namely legalists, and false teachers who put their personal experiences above the Word of God. Then he turned to things that are necessary for our health and growth. Pastor Jim has dubbed these the "welcomes," and that's what we'll study today. We're hovering over Colossians chapters 2 and 3, in the final segment of Jim's sermon, Let Us Beware. Lis...
Let Us Beware - Part 2 of 3
May 08, 2020 04:00 - 22.8 MBHow many heads do you need? The correct answer is "one." No heads is too few, and two heads are too many. If Jesus is our Head, we need no other; and Paul argues in Colossians that anyone who forms his faith around angelic visitations and visions has lost his Head! That will tend to create problems with the rest of the body. No, this "Jesus Plus" doctrine isn't a different interpretation made in good faith - it's a no-headed monster. Here's Jim with part 2 of Let Us Beware. Listen to Right...
Let Us Beware - Part 1 of 3
May 07, 2020 04:00 - 22.8 MBIf the Jewish dietary laws applied to everyone, that would defeat their purpose! God gave the Israelites laws about diet, and holy days, and even clothing... to make them different. Their odd customs would set them apart from their Gentile neighbors, and provide a picture of holiness. A picture of holiness. Real godliness goes deeper than these skin-deep matters. Paul gave the Colossians the same advice he gave everyone: Let Us Beware of those who teach shadows over substance. Listen to Ri...
The Proof Is In The Product - Part 2 of 2
May 06, 2020 04:00 - 22.8 MBI've got a new self; I need some new threads! Everyone - not just the ladies - likes putting on a brand-new outfit. And we need one after the radical transformation we've undergone, being buried with Christ, then raised with Him. Our old get-up of anger, malice, obscene talk and lying just didn't fit us anymore. So, what to put on, instead? How about compassion, humility, "And above all these, put on love." Now that's a stylish ensemble! We're ready for part 2 of the sermon, The Proof is in...
The Proof Is In The Product - Part 1 of 2
May 05, 2020 04:00 - 22.8 MBIn the kingdom of God, being comes before doing. In recent episodes we've heard Paul say that we're to "put off the old self;" and that former "us" had to go - he was no good. When we come to Colossians 3:12 the Apostle will tell us to "put on" some things... but not before he reminds us that these are not "good works" as we used to think about them; ways to earn "brownie points" with God. They're expressions of a new nature, and He is the sovereign Source. Here's part 1 of the sermon The P...
Jesus Shines Through - Part 2 of 2
May 04, 2020 04:00God has an ingenious solution to our racial problems: make everyone the same race - a new race! There's no checkbox on the US census for my ethnic group,"Redeemed." In Colossians 3, Paul teaches us to see our old habits and choices as our former selves; that man was a different individual, that I can bury and walk away from. Even his group affiliations are dead and gone. Something else that should be buried with him is his impurity. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday o...
Jesus Shines Through - Part 1 of 2
May 01, 2020 04:00The Apostle Paul advised the Colossians to "...put to death whatever is earthly in you...." What does that mean, and how can it happen? Today we'll get a wide-angle view of the first 17 verses of Colossians 3. But we'll also focus-in on this issue of "mortifying our members," as the King James puts it; or, "considering ourselves dead to worldly contacts." Paul gives us some things to "put off," some things to "put on," and some to "put away." Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday throug...
Heaven's Wisdom Applied To Earthly Problems - Part 1 of 1
April 30, 2020 04:00Sometimes the best way to understand something is to look at its opposite. We've been orbiting around the tight cluster of imperatives and theological facts in the early verses of Colossians 3. We have died with Christ; but we are raised. We should, in light of that truth, live a higher life, liberated from the slavery we suffered in the kingdom of Satan. Easier said than done, Paul! It's even difficult for us to find models for that level of Christian experience. So what if we look at nega...
Applying Death To Life - Part 2 of 2
April 29, 2020 04:00When we're born again we get a new, holy life - but we're living it in the old, unholy body. There is a solution. It requires us to understand some things that are part of the "big picture," as Jim calls it. This lesson is a further exploration of Colossians 3 - setting our minds on things above. It may seem like graduate-level stuff, but these are things that every Christian should know. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHK...
Applying Death To Life - Part 1 of 2
April 28, 2020 04:00How can you miss seeing a mountain? Like a painter who forgets that there should be a large geological feature right about "there," we often leave out significant details in the pictures God has shown us. Maybe we're too close to the subject. In our contemplations of Colossians, and what it means to "set our minds on things above," let's try actually seeing things from above - from God's perspective. If we see only with our physical eyes we may miss something. Like a mountain. Listen to Ri...
Alive In Christ - Part 3 of 3
April 27, 2020 04:00There are some devices that can run on battery power...but they have a lot more "oomph" if you plug them in! What Paul has been telling us in Colossians is that you can attempt to live the Christian life on your own power - trying harder, getting support from a group or a mentor, reading books - the things humans do under the category of "self help." That's the AA-battery level. We have a far greater source of power available to us. Why don't we "plug in" to it? As we've been reading lately...
Alive In Christ - Part 2 of 3
April 24, 2020 04:00Jesus' will has been read; you inherit it all! Some of us have trouble with the New Testament passages notifying us of our "inheritance." For one thing, we imagine this transfer of resources happening sometime out in the future. And then there's the matter of the preachers who are always talking about "claiming" things from God - we want to stay balanced. Jim will show that these resources are for us, now, and they're not worldly gifts. We're still in Colossians; or we will be, after a slig...
Alive In Christ - Part 1 of 3
April 23, 2020 04:00God's secret plan is out in the open, but many of us don't understand it. The secret, or "mystery," is "Christ in you, the hope of glory." That's from Paul's letter to the Colossians, which we're studying. But to say the words, isn't to grasp their meaning - much less to appropriate this truth for ourselves. It brings a supernatural life above where most of us are living. Today Jim opens the sermon Alive in Christ. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cin...
Death To Life - Part 3 of 3
April 22, 2020 04:00You won't "press on" in God by going back to religion. The legalists are doing something far worse than asking us to adopt some outdated rituals. They're devaluing the sacrifice of Christ. And they want to put us back under the Law, which is to say, they want to put us back under condemnation! To refute them, Paul wrote one of the most powerful passages in the Bible. Jim will help us study it today. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at ...
Death To Life - Part 2 of 3
April 21, 2020 04:00"See to it that no one takes you captive." Paul wrote to the Colossians to keep them free. In the second chapter of his letter he contrasts the wisdom found in Christ, to the plausible arguments of the philosophers. He sets the fullness and completeness of Jesus, against the 2-dimensional world of the legalists: all symbolism and no substance. Their religion isn't spiritual at all; it deals only with things that can be touched. Paul argues that the dead - that's us - aren't concerned with s...
Death To Life - Part 1 of 3
April 20, 2020 04:00When the glass is full, stop pouring! False teachers insist that we should add something to Christ; old rituals, new books, something. These "Jesus Plus" liars have been around since Jesus left, and Paul gave us the antidote to their poison in the book of Colossians: We are full. No more can be added to what God has done for us, in Christ. Here's Jim to open his sermon, Death to Life. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91...
The Gospel For The Gentiles - Part 3 of 3
April 17, 2020 04:00Jesus is filled with God... we are filled with Christ! Colossians 2:9 is so amazing, so "filled" with implications that some of us have been known to stop reading there - but the point is coming in the next verse: We are filled, as well! What does it mean, to be "full" or "made complete in Him" - in some way similar to the way He is filled? Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00pm, WRFD 880AM (Co...
The Gospel For The Gentiles - Part 2 of 3
April 16, 2020 04:00Well, there goes the neighborhood! The infant church had black, white, brown and "other;" rich and poor; educated and illiterate; all rubbing shoulders as they worshiped the Redeemer. Perhaps the most difficult challenge was the mixing of circumcised and uncircumcised. Here's Part 2 of The Gospel for the Gentiles. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00pm, WRFD 880AM (Columbus, OH) at 9:00am and W...
The Gospel For The Gentiles - Part 1 of 3
April 15, 2020 04:00How could a Gentile believe in Messiah when he didn't know what a "messiah" is? The gospel could not be confined to a small, Jewish sect. The message was reaching Gentiles who had no context for it - and yet were attracted to Jesus. Their lack of knowledge put them in danger, as it often does. Paul's remedy was prayer, and a letter: we call it the Epistle to the Colossians. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Colum...
Energizing Principles - Part 1 of 1
April 14, 2020 04:00"If you have been raised with Christ..." Wow, what a proposition! We just celebrated Resurrection Sunday, so now let's talk about how that event must change our lives. Since His resurrection has been applied to us, personally, we need to raise our eyes: To aim at, to yearn for, to focus on, "things above." Today we launch a new series in Paul's small-but-powerful letter to the Colossians. Here's Pastor Jim with his opening sermon called, Energizing Principles. Listen to Right Start Radio e...
Heavenly Heartburn - Part 2 of 2
April 13, 2020 04:00After the Resurrection, what was Jesus' mood? We might guess that the Lord was feeling "triumphant" after His triumph, or "relieved" to have it all over with. But if you look at the incident with the travelers to Emmaus - as we will today - He seems, well, playful. Isn't He having just a bit of fun with these guys, pretending He doesn't know what's been in the news lately? Here's Jim to conclude a message we began on Friday, called Heavenly Heartburn. Listen to Right Start Radio every Mond...
Heavenly Heartburn - Part 1 of 2
April 10, 2020 04:00Once Jesus had returned from the dead He could have appeared to anyone, or everyone. Why did He make the choices He did? You'll often hear Jim speak about our personal responsibility to choose to believe and obey Christ. Put that under the heading, "Free Will." Today and Monday he'll flip that coin over, and we'll talk about "Divine Sovereignty" - specifically the choices Jesus made after His resurrection. We'll look at several New Testament passages, but we'll start in John, chapter 20. L...
The Heart Of The Resurrection - Part 2 of 2
April 09, 2020 04:00Do our political leaders "kiss the Son?" Or do they "rage" against Him? Yesterday, in a message about the Resurrection, Jim took us not to the Gospels, but to Psalm 2. It's about God ruling the world through His Anointed Son, and the "kings of the earth" having none of it. If you're not sure how that ties in with Jesus returning to life on a particular Sunday morning, it should become clear if you'll stay with us This is Part 2 of the sermon, The Heart of the Resurrection. Here's Pastor Jim...
The Heart Of The Resurrection - Part 1 of 2
April 08, 2020 04:00We can look into the empty tomb, and still miss the point! Jesus is alive! What the Prophets had spoken had come true; His identity is confirmed, powerfully. But the Resurrection means much more than that. Well, we say, because He lives, we can live also; He is the "first fruits of those who have fallen asleep." Yes, magnificently true... but there is more! Pastor Jim wants to take us to the central fact of the central event in history - to The Heart of the Resurrection. Listen to Right St...
Tips From An Insider - Part 2 of 2
April 07, 2020 04:00Once a prisoner is tried, convicted and executed, there's no re-trial... ...usually! The Lord's accusers wanted Him to confess! But He turned them all into witnesses against themselves. Their trials are still pending, but the outcome doesn't look promising. We'll look into that today - after we finish up a thought we were chasing yesterday, of some questions left by Matthew's Gospel. Here's Pastor Jim in Matthew 27. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Ci...
Tips From An Insider - Part 1 of 2
April 06, 2020 04:00As Matthew begins to wrap up his case for Jesus being the Jewish Messiah, he leaves a few loose ends.... There are some head-scratchers in the final section of the Gospel according to Matthew, and Jim will point out a few of them - for example, that detail about other dead people coming out of their tombs at the Lord's resurrection. You may remember that, at the very beginning of our study, Jim taught us to look for the phrase, "When Jesus had finished" this or that - it indicates that we'r...
The Big One - Part 2 of 2
April 03, 2020 04:00The "Last Days" will be experienced differently by Christians, unbelievers, and Jews. If we want to understand Jesus' information about the End Times, we have to keep track of who He's talking to. That seems pretty basic, doesn't it? But Christians can get careless about this. We're so eager to know what happens, and when - that we sometimes forget the question, "to whom?" We'll rejoin the sermon we started yesterday at Matthew 24:9, with Jim. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday throu...
The Big One - Part 1 of 2
April 02, 2020 04:00The Bible warns of future devastation, and most people don't take it all that seriously. But when science warns of coming catastrophe ... no, they don't pay much attention then, either. There were some people who did listen to insights about the end times: the Disciples. They wanted to know, "When will these things take place?" Pastor Jim will help us fit Jesus' answer into the prophetic timetable. We'll be in Matthew's Gospel, chapter 24. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through F...
Woe To You - Part 2 of 2
April 01, 2020 04:00"Don't call anyone on earth, 'Father.' " That's simple enough, isn't it? As we've followed Jesus through the eyes of Matthew, weve seen just how much the Lord hates religious pride. There was to be none of that in His church, and to help illustrate the flat organizational structure He wanted, He banned the honorifics "Teacher," "Father" and "Master." Today we'll conclude a message from Matthew 23. Jim calls it Woe to You. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160...
Woe To You - Part 1 of 2
March 31, 2020 04:00It was the Question to End All Questions. Whose son is the Messiah; David's, or God's? Jesus' puzzler would expose the Pharisees' one dimensional understanding of God's Word. But make no mistake: this was no academic exercise, no battle of the Bible nerds. With this question the Lord would demolish the main accusation against Him: blasphemy. Here's Jim with some context for this confrontation. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am...

Well What Do You Think? - Part 2 of 2
March 26, 2020 04:00There was a "swordfight" in the Temple! The sword of the Spirit is the Word of God, and the learned theologians were about to wish they had never tried to cross swords with Jesus! When they attacked, He came right back at them, expertly wielding the Scriptures they thought they knew so well. Imagine watching this showdown for the heart of Israel. From yesterday's message we pick up in Matthew 21, verse 42. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, ...
Well What Do You Think? - Part 1 of 2
March 25, 2020 04:00The 3 synoptic Gospels - Matthew, Mark and Luke - are similar. But today we'll look at some material unique to Matthew. As we re-live history from a Disciple's perspective, we've come through the gates of Jerusalem in the manner, and on the exact date, prophesied. Just a few days from now the religious leaders will take drastic steps to solve their "Jesus problem." Right now we live in the tension of this moment, between Palm Sunday and Good Friday. We'll be in Matthew 21, after Jim opens w...
The Gift Of A Ransom Paid - Part 2 of 2
March 24, 2020 04:00Daniel prophesied the exact day that Messiah would come. We should know that date, and more importantly, the nation of Israel should have known that date. The clock started when a Persian king gave the decree to rebuild Jerusalem. And exactly 483 years later, all of Israel should have been looking for their King. Only one person in history could have fulfilled that prophecy. Here's Jim in Matthew 21. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at...
The Gift Of A Ransom Paid - Part 1 of 2
March 23, 2020 04:00Before they were called Christians, believers were derided as "Nazarenes." Many saw them as a breakaway sect of Judaism. Matthew argues that Jesus had not preached anything contrary to Jewish law - as prescribed by God. Rather, He had fulfilled Hebrew prophecy. A son or daughter of Abraham who found the Messiah wasn't a former Jew, but a "completed Jew," to use a modern term. We studying the first Gospel with Pastor Jim. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160A...
First Shall Be Last - Part 2 of 2
March 20, 2020 04:00It's like when Mom asks your boss to give you a promotion. Were James and John embarrassed that their mother asked Jesus for preferential treatment for them? Probably. Did they go along with the idea? Yeah. They did. But before we get to that part of Matthew's narrative, let's finish up what we started talking about yesterday: the Parable of the Laborers in the Vineyard. Here's Pastor Jim, in Matthew 20. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH...
First Shall Be Last - Part 1 of 2
March 19, 2020 04:00When God lavishes unearned rewards on others, how does that make you feel? Jesus used a parable to illustrate His answer to Peter about the payment he could expect, working for the King. That pay day will have a surprising twist; there's a bonus coming that's totally at the Master's discretion. We'll be in Matthew 19 and 20 today for the opening of Jim's sermon called, First Shall Be Last. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WH...
Surprised By Grace - Part 2 of 2
March 18, 2020 04:00Hiding in the question, "What good thing must I do...?" there's an assumption. The assumption is that we can do something that God would recognize as "good." But Paul wrote, "Nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh...." The unregenerated person doesn't have any good to offer God. And there are many these days like the Rich Young Ruler, who don't know where real goodness comes from. We're in back Matthew 19 today, with Pastor Jim. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Fri...
Surprised By Grace - Part 1 of 2
March 17, 2020 04:00I'll make you a deal: For you - today only - All Commandments Half Off! If 10 whole commands are too many, how about 5 - would you keep 5? If your soul depended on it? No? Well, how about just one? Jesus planted a new thought in the mind of the Rich Young Ruler: What if the self-made road to heaven is a dead end? Here's Jim to open the sermon, Surprised by Grace. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at...
Only One Who Is Good - Part 2 of 2
March 16, 2020 04:00Did you know you can obey all the rules, and still lose the game? The Rich Young Ruler was smart enough to realize that his resources, plus his religious deeds, didn't add up to righteousness. He was going to come up short with God, and he knew it. But he didn't know what to do about it. So he asked Jesus. That interview comes later in Matthew 19. We'll start in verse 9, with Jesus correcting some bad ideas about divorce. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160...
Only One Who Is Good - Part 1 of 2
March 13, 2020 04:00The Pharisees tried to stump Jesus with a question about divorce - but they weren't prepared for His answer! The Disciples, too, were caught off guard with the Lord's response. In a few sentences Christ set all of us straight about the divine design of marriage, the real root of the divorce problem, and the inspiration of the Scriptures. We've been "Walking Along with Jesus," and today we turn to a new chapter in our Matthew series. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday o...
God Defines Greatness - Part 2 of 2
March 12, 2020 04:00Resentful, bitter people are torture to be around. They're just the worst. People who forgive are the greatest. Yesterday we started talking about humility as the measure of a person's rank in the kingdom of God. Today we'll see how humility blossoms into forgiveness, forgiveness into warm relationships, and then those relationships demonstrate God's character to the world. That's pretty great! Here's Jim in Matthew 18. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM...
God Defines Greatness - Part 1 of 2
March 11, 2020 04:00Muhammad Ali famously said, "I am the greatest." But Jesus said that the humblest is the greatest. We're still not very good at this, are we - at appraising a person's "greatness" by his or her level of humility? We tend to think of a "great" person as the one who is accomplished or talented or influential, not in the terms that Christ laid out in Matthew 18. Here with a reminder, and some explanations, is Pastor Jim. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (...
Jesus Predicts Messiah's Future - Part 2 of 2
March 10, 2020 04:00An hour after you win the Lifetime Achievement Award, your wife reminds you it's trash night. So often, after our "mountaintop" experiences, we're dropped deep into the valley. It happened to Elijah after his glorious win on Mount Carmel, and it happened to Jesus after the Mount of Transfiguration. When we had to break yesterday, Jim had told us that the first feature of the Kingdom is the King, in all his glory. He'll share the second feature today. We're in Matthew 17 for the finale of th...
Jesus Predicts Messiah's Future - Part 1 of 2
March 09, 2020 04:00We can understand how the Disciples would think that, once they had linked up with Messiah, it would be champagne and roses from here on out. Jesus had a shocking surprise for His elite dozen: The path to glory goes through the grave - for Him, and for them, as well. They would all have to "man up" for the dark days ahead, and Christ had a short time to prepare them. As we leaf through the Gospel of Matthew we want to linger a while in Chapter 16. Today we launch a new sermon by Jim called,...
I Will Build My Church - Part 2 of 2
March 06, 2020 04:00What is the most important question? "What must I do to be saved?" is right up there with the best questions of all time. Here's another contender: "Who is Jesus?" Or, as the Lord Himself put it, "Who do you say that I am?" That seems to be a challenge-question to anyone who would enter the kingdom. Pastor Jim takes us back to the Gospel of Matthew. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00pm, WRFD ...
I Will Build My Church - Part 1 of 2
March 05, 2020 04:00"Red sky at morning, sailors take warning...." The Sadducees and the Pharisees weren't mariners, or meteorologists; they were religionists. Their expertise was supposed to be in the Word of God. But they could read the signs of nature far better than they could recognize the supernatural signs that should have been plain to them...as experts. Matthew 16 is full of contrasts like that. We'll look into those today and tomorrow, in a sermon called, I Will Build My Church. Here's Pastor Jim to ...
It's The Heart Not The Mouth - Part 2 of 2
March 04, 2020 04:00The externals are not eternal. Following rules about washing or bowing or making certain gestures simply cannot change the inward "you." When we left off yesterday in Matthew 15, Jesus was tangling with the Pharisees over their traditions. Not only were they outward rituals only; they were man-made. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00pm, WRFD 880AM (Columbus, OH) at 9:00am and WRZN 720AM (Gain...
It's The Heart Not The Mouth - Part 1 of 2
March 03, 2020 04:00Many who name the name of Christ don't seem to have read the chapter we're about to study today. "Why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?" Jesus put that question to the Pharisees, but He could just as well say it today to people in churches who just don't seem to grasp how much the Lord hates legalism. It's the sin that feels like holiness, so we'll need help to spot it in ourselves. Today we move into the 15th chapter of Matthew, and Jim will point out the star...
