A Priest Who Lives Forever - Part 1 of 3

December 06, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

If the Law doesn't work... then we have some questions! If trying to keep the Commandments doesn't save anyone, why did God give them? If the Temple sacrifices didn't truly cleanse anyone's sin, why all that blood? And if the priests descended from Aaron were, at best, "imperfect" - then what purpose did they serve? The author of Hebrews has elevated Jesus so high above the Old Covenant system that we may start to wonder whether it had any value at all. Here's Jim, to explain. Listen to ...

New High Priest From The Tribe Of Judah - Part 2 of 2

December 05, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

If you want to go back to your roots, you'll be going without Jesus! We don't have the same issues as the early Jewish Christians; we aren't tempted to retreat from the freedom of grace, to the familiarity of the law. Or are we? Don't we see many who want to reintroduce dietary codes, or return to rote liturgy, or even rely on human priests? But the new wine won't go into the old wineskins. Jesus doesn't fit into the old religious system; He breaks it. Listen to Right Start Radio every Mon...

New High Priest From The Tribe Of Judah - Part 1 of 2

December 04, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

A new Priest, a new law, a new covenant! As we get to Hebrews 7 in our reading, we get the feeling that Paul (or whoever you think wrote the letter) is trying to pulverize any pretext for returning to Judaism. So far he's proven from the Scriptures that Jesus is superior to Moses, to Abraham, even to angels - and he's continuing to elevate Christ above all human priests. Jim's message is, New High Priest From the Tribe of Judah. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WC...

We Have This Hope - Part 2 of 2

December 01, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

If it's Friday, this must be Joppa! This tour started in the book of Hebrews. We were talking about Melchizedek (Hebrews 7), which took us to Genesis. And at that point Jim broke away from the main tour and ended up in Joppa, on the roof with Peter in the book of Acts. The connection is Gentiles. Melchizedek was not Jewish, and Joppa is a place where God launched ministries to Gentiles - in both Testaments. His love covers the whole world. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through F...

We Have This Hope - Part 1 of 2

November 30, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

When is hope more than hope? To the world, a "hope" is little more than a wish. It's a mere desire, perhaps with the tiniest scrap of evidence that the wish could come true. But as believers in the God of the Bible, our hope is much more solid. It's less like steam, and more like steel. Jim will encourage us with some instruction about that, and we'll meet mysterious Melchizedek in today's lesson in the book of Hebrews. Here's Part 1 of the sermon, We Have This Hope. Listen to Right Star...

The Immutable Promise Of God - Part 3 of 3

November 29, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Abraham obtained the promise - despite his blunders! The "Father of Faith" wasn't perfect. He lied and said that Sarah was his sister, not his wife. And that lie stemmed from the fear of man. Then there's the whole business with the servant-woman, Hagar. Abe blew it - big time, and repeatedly. And yet none of those mistakes put his standing with God in peril. Here's the third-and-final piece of Jim's sermon from the book of Hebrews called, The Immutable Promise of God. Listen to Right St...

The Immutable Promise Of God - Part 2 of 3

November 28, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Do we need an explanation for the word, "exegesis?" An exegesis is in fact an explanation or an interpretation - often, but not always, of a text in the Bible. And we'll need to be good exegetes as we work through Hebrews, chapter 6. Of the four possible meanings, Jim will give us many reasons to prefer the most positive one. The sermon is called, The Immutable Promise of God, and for context we'll go all the way back to Genesis 22, verse 16. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday throug...

The Immutable Promise Of God - Part 1 of 3

November 27, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

When God doubled down! A promise from God isn't like one of our human promises. We don't know the future. We don't speak things into existence with our words. When the Almighty promises something, it is real, it is already done; we're just waiting on the shipping! But if God's promise isn't enough for you, He'll put up some security. He'll put some "skin in the game," if you will. Here's Pastor Jim with the first part of his sermon, The Immutable Promise of God. Listen to Right Start Rad...

The Danger Of Defection - Part 2 of 2

November 24, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Hearing loss can lead to worse things. In the physical realm, becoming "hard of hearing" can lead to isolation, depression, and even cognitive impairment. And it's the same in the spiritual dimension. A little dullness in hearing and responding to God's voice can grow into very serious disorders. Yesterday Jim began to help us wrestle with the alarming message of Hebrews 6. And we'll need to read the whole chapter to get the context. We'll pick it up at verse 4. Listen to Right Start Ra...

The Danger Of Defection - Part 1 of 2

November 23, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Does Hebrews 6 imply that we can lose our salvation? Recently we took the tests in 1 John for knowing whether we're in the Kingdom. But once we're in, can we be out? That's the question that arises when we read the letter to the Hebrews. The author seems to be talking about real Christians - those who have seen the light, who've shared in the Holy Spirit, and then fall away. There's more than good theology at stake! Jim will pray to open his sermon, The Danger of Defection. Listen to Righ...

About Priestly Things - Part 3 of 3

November 22, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

We're not going to advance in this school if we keep forgetting what we've learned! It has seemed like class, this portion of the book of Hebrews. And we have the best kind of teacher: one who expects great things of us, and holds us to a high standard. But when we stop aiming for the top grade and start coasting in our studies, we need a reminder of what that does to us. There are mental and spiritual consequences for slacking. We're in Hebrews chapter 5 with Pastor Jim. Listen to Right ...

About Priestly Things - Part 2 of 3

November 21, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Nothing is perfect unless it's complete. Paul's Jewish readers instinctively connected the concepts of something being whole, complete, sound, at peace, and perfect. The word shalom connotes all of those meanings. So when he says that Jesus was "made perfect," they understood that He completed His experience as Son. And when he points out that human priests never complete their duties, they could see that that system was not perfect. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday...

About Priestly Things - Part 1 of 3

November 20, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

The problem with priests. The problem is that a priest needs to be holy in order to stand before God - though there is "none righteous." And if such a perfect person existed, he couldn't very well represent us sinners! As we turn the pages of the book of Hebrews we're challenged to think deeply about the Old Covenant system of mediators and sacrifices, and we'll come to the conclusion that it's just not adequate. Jim's talk is called, About Priestly Things. Listen to Right Start Radio eve...

Our Great High Priest - Part 2 of 2

November 17, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

"This will be on the test!" Our school teachers who warned us what was going to be on the exam really didn't need to go to all that trouble. We had figured out pretty early that anything they repeated a lot - that was the important material. Well, the educator who instructed us in his letter to the Hebrews used a similar approach. And it may surprise you how often he reiterates a point that we might have otherwise overlooked. Here's Jim in Hebrews chapter 4, to conclude his thoughts on Ou...

Our Great High Priest - Part 1 of 2

November 16, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Jesus not only brought good news; He is the Good News! Christ is the sacrifice for our sins, and the One who offers the sacrifice. We call that one a priest. In this message we'll examine a religious-sounding phrase in the Book of Hebrews: "the Apostle and High Priest of our confession." As Jim will show, there's a lot more action in those titles than meets the eye! Each of those terms is rich with meaning for us. He'll pray to open the sermon, Our Great High Priest. Listen to Right Start...

The Rest That Brings Relief - Part 3 of 3

November 15, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

The Law says, "Carry your own load!" Grace says, "You can lay that burden down, you know." Peter called the Law of Moses "a yoke that neither we nor our fathers have been able to bear." Why would Christians volunteer to get under that yoke again - and pressure other Christians to do the same? Is it pride, or simple unbelief, that keeps us from God's rest? We've been studying Hebrews, chapter 4. Today Jim will complete his sermon, The Rest the Brings Relief Listen to Right Start Radio eve...

The Rest That Brings Relief - Part 2 of 3

November 14, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Sometimes rest is hard work! We're coming to the delicious paradox of Hebrews 4:11, "Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest." Did you catch it? The King James translators gave us, "Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest." So what rest is "that rest?" And what kind of striving or "diligence" - that's the literal reading - must we do, to enter it? Today Jim will bring us Part 2 of, The Rest That Brings Relief. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday ...

The Rest That Brings Relief - Part 1 of 3

November 13, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Rest? What rest?! Most of us live in a perpetual state of near-exhaustion, and we blame it on the pace and stress of modern life. But our ancestors were just as tired as we are - maybe more. Well, in the Bible, God promises rest. And He gives rest. In fact there are several different kinds, or levels, of rest that we should understand. Jim will open with prayer. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at ...

The Problem Moses Couldn't Solve - Part 2 of 2

November 10, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

What happens when God chooses people... but they don't choose Him? That question may put a kink in our theology, but there it is, right in the second book of the Bible: God chose a group of people; He was in the process of delivering them from slavery in Egypt; and well, let's just say they were less than enthusiastic and grateful! This bunch had a problem that Moses couldn't solve, and we began to talk about it yesterday. Here's Pastor Jim with the conclusion of that message. Listen to Ri...

The Problem Moses Couldn't Solve - Part 1 of 2

November 09, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Moses achieved so much that he almost seems super-human to us. And yet, he failed. In his letter to the Hebrews, the author has a tricky task: He isn't trying to take Moses down from his pedestal. But he wants us to look much, much higher - away from the servant of God, and toward the Son. Moses symbolizes an approach to God that ultimately can't work, because of our sinful hearts. Here's Jim to begin his sermon called, The Problem Moses Couldn't Solve. Listen to Right Start Radio every Mo...

Faith Is The Reality - Part 3 of 3

November 08, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Your bootstraps are broken! Really, probably most of the people of the world are trying to pull themselves up to heaven by their bootstraps. (For those who first read the book of Hebrews it would have been "sandal straps.") But whether we put our faith in the works of the Law, symbolized by Moses, or seek help from supernatural agents like angels, the root of the error is a subtle rejection of Christ. On Monday and Tuesday Jim has taught us that Faith is the Reality; he'll finish that serm...

Faith Is The Reality - Part 2 of 3

November 07, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Consider Jesus! The author of Hebrews gives us a command we love to obey: Think about the Savior. Fix your thoughts on Christ. But He is infinite - we need to narrow the scope of our consideration. Well, then, let's think about Him as "the Apostle and High Priest of our confession." What does that mean? How does He fill those roles? And do we understand what we're saying when we say we believe in Him - our "confession?" Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 11...

Faith Is The Reality - Part 1 of 3

November 06, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

You can be sincere, and be sincerely wrong. In our "melting pot" culture we have to manage to get along with others of different faiths, while avoiding the trap of "pluralism" - in the sense of seeing all belief systems as equally valid. I can respect your right to believe, without believing that you're right. The book of Hebrews addresses people who even had the correct God, but the wrong kind of faith. They seemed sincere in their error. Here's Jim, to open with prayer. Listen to Right ...

The Son - Superior To Angels - Part 3 of 3

November 03, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

When God became man, that was a giant leap down, wasn't it? But ultimately, He gained by that loss! It isn't easy for us to wrap our minds around the fact that, when God seems defeated, He wins. His "folly" multiplies wisdom. And that time when the Word "emptied Himself" and "gave up everything," He was enriched. How does that work? Jim is here to complete his sermon called, The Son: Superior to Angels. We're in Hebrews, chapter 2. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday ...

The Son - Superior To Angels - Part 2 of 3

November 02, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Jesus doesn't just own everything. He earned some things! How can we possibly understand that the Second Person of the Trinity - the Maker and Possessor of all - was moved to leave His throne, and work? Humans have proved over and over that we would rather not work; we're always looking for ways to make other people work for us. And what was it that the Lord earned? What kind of reward is payable to Him? Here's Jim with Part 2 of, The Son: Superior to Angels. Listen to Right Start Radio e...

The Son - Superior To Angels - Part 1 of 3

November 01, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Some say that Jesus was a prophet, like Noah. Many other people subscribe to the notion that Christ was a great moral teacher, a godly example, even a philosopher. But the men who knew Him best insist that He is far greater than all of those things. He is the Story. And He is the Author of the story. Jesus is everything. And whatever we do, we mustn't put others on the throne of our hearts. He has earned that place. Jim continues our Hebrews series with a word of prayer. Listen to Righ...

The Danger Of Drifting - Part 2 of 2

October 31, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Are we clingy enough? A certain politician infamously criticized voters for "clinging to their...religion," among other things. But is that really our problem; that we're just too focused on Jesus and the Bible and prayer and community and evangelism and so forth? Or could it be that we need to increase our cling-factor? The alternative is to drift, and maybe even to fall away. Our study of Hebrews continues with Part 2 of Jim's message, The Danger of Drifting. Listen to Right Start Radi...

The Danger Of Drifting - Part 1 of 2

October 30, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Ultimatum: a final proposition, condition, or demand. The Merriam-Webster dictionary has given us starting coordinates for our journey today. In our current series through the Book of Hebrews, we're proclaiming Jesus as the "last possible, the farthest, the end" of heaven's communication with earth. He is God's Ultimatum. And He also fits the definition of that word in the sense of a "demand." Such a great gift requires a response from us. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday throug...

God Has Spoken - Part 3 of 3

October 27, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Under the Old Covenant your sins could be covered. But only covered. The blood of an animal could bring a temporary veil for your offense, but total cleansing of sin would require a different kind of sacrifice - a deeper, more valuable offering - in an act that could never be repeated. In the first chapter of his letter to the Hebrews, the author shows us the sharp contrast between the old and the new ways of relating to God - and especially between the many imperfect messengers, and the o...

God Has Spoken - Part 2 of 3

October 26, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

God spoke, and the universe came into being. Then He spoke again! "...in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son...." In fact, one of Jesus' names is "the Word of God." Well, that Expression is alive, and it's full of divine purpose and power! That Voice echoes through the human timeline - past, present and future - and it is creating. Or re-creating. Here's Jim with Part 2 of his sermon, God Has Spoken. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cin...

God Has Spoken - Part 1 of 3

October 25, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

What I'm about to tell you was communicated to me directly by an angel! Did I get your attention? Do our ears perk up at the mere mention of "angels?" What if I were to tell you that a word from an angel is never "direct;" he is always and only a messenger? Some Christians in the first century got a bit too impressed with angels, and forgot that they'd been visited by Someone greater. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 9...

How Do I Know I'm Saved? - Part 3 of 3

October 24, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

We can't love everything! We cannot serve two masters, and we can't have more than one "top priority." It turns out that love, likewise, is a zero-sum game. If we want to truly love people, then our love for things will take a severe blow. Pastor Jim will relate some personal examples. We've been reading from 1 John as the Apostle has told us, We Can Know Some Things For Sure. Today we'll close that series with Part 3 of the sermon, How Do I Know I'm Saved? Listen to Right Start Radio ev...

How Do I Know I'

October 23, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Christian, do you keep Jesus' commands? Or do you lie like a rug? The two stark alternatives we find in 1 John are: obeyer, and liar - nothing else, nothing in between. Jesus Himself asked, "Why do you call Me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?" Well, what are the commands of Christ that we need to put into practice? Pastor Jim will mention a few very important ones today. We're ready for Part 2 of, How Do I Know I'm Saved? Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday o...

How Do I Know I'm Saved? - Part 1 of 3

October 20, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

"How do I know I'm saved?" If the most important question to every human being is, "What must I do to be saved (to be right with God, and reconciled to Him)?" then isn't this basically the same question from the reverse angle? "How do I know?" After we've repented, believed the gospel, been baptized... how do we know that all of that was real? Especially since we know that the heart is deceitful? Jim has the answer to that most important question in the sermon we begin today. Listen to Ri...

Beware Of The Antichrists - Part 3 of 3

October 19, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

God loves you; it's true. But does God forgive everyone He loves? Heaven's forgiveness isn't based on love, it's grounded in justice. God's love for you and me compelled Him to send a Ransom, a Redeemer, a Rescuer. But those who refuse to be rescued will perish - despite God's great love for them. Jim will make that much clearer on today's look into 1 John. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00...

Beware Of The Antichrists - Part 2 of 3

October 18, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

SINNERS ON STRIKE AGAINST GOD! Labor stoppages have been in the news lately. The strikers' goal is to force Management to change its ways. Well, many people seem to have a similar strategy for dealing with God. If everyone is a sinner, and God wants to have anyone in heaven, well, He's just going to have to capitulate to our demands, and let sinners in! Uh, no. That kind of thinking comes from the spirit of antichrist, as Jim began to explain yesterday. Listen to Right Start Radio every M...

Beware Of The Antichrists - Part 1 of 3

October 17, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Psst! Could I interest you in a messiah - cheap? If people want a high-priced watch or a high-priced handbag, but don't want to pay a high price for it, there's always someone on a virtual streetcorner selling the phony goods. Or the phony god, as we'll learn from the Apostle John today. The real Jesus demands everything of us! Is it any wonder that some shoppers are looking for an affordable alternative? But Jim says, accept no substitutes! Beware of the Antichrists. Listen to Right Star...

Walking In The Light - Part 2 of 2

October 16, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

"Let there be light!" Light is among the earliest of God's creations, and light is the first test of authentic Christianity that John mentions. If we are "sons of light," as another Apostle put it, then our new nature should reveal us to be good, candid, and life-giving. And those will be some of the first attributes that come to mind when people think of us. We're resuming our discussion from Friday. We're in the letter called "1 John," and here's Jim with Part 2 of, Walking in the Light...

Walking In The Light - Part 1 of 2

October 13, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Are you saved? Am I saved? How can we know for sure? Yes, we can know that we belong to Jesus, and we don't have to rely on our fluctuating feelings. The Apostle John gave us some tests that we can use for that. We may be shocked at the things John does not consider to be marks of authenticity; our baptism as a baby, church membership, or even responding to an altar call at a crusade. His first test has to do with our conduct. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WC...

The Consummation - Part 2 of 2

October 12, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

If you don't have questions about the last book in the Bible, that's questionable! In this series we've asserted that Revelation is not as difficult to understand as most of us have thought. But we have to recognize its structure, and we must use God's frame of reference for what we find in its pages. And after reading it with those guidelines, we still expect to have some questions! Here's the rest of our Q&A session with Jim. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCV...

The Consummation - Part 1 of 2

October 11, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Can you be in a covenant with God, and be lost? That's a good question! To round out our Revelation series, Jim is fielding some questions that have come up. One involves the particular promises to the children of Israel. A big part of John's prophecy is devoted to them. And another question: Why don't we see the UN, or the US, in Revelation... or do we? 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, ...

Three Women Who Shape The World - Part 2 of 2

October 10, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

The most beautiful Bride, ever! Yesterday we met two women, two prophetic symbols for End Times people and events. They're part of John's vision recorded in Revelation. But the name of Jim's sermon is,Three Women Who Shape the World. We've saved the best for last. This Bride wears white, and she's in the military! The contrast couldn't be greater between the corrupt consort of the Antichrist, and the pure Wife of the Lamb. We're in Revelation 17. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday ...

Three Women Who Shape The World - Part 1 of 2

October 09, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

We all know that women shape the world. Eve, Ruth, Jezebel, Abigail, Priscilla, Rebecca, Esther, Mary, and the other Mary, and the other Mary... the Bible tells the stories of women who changed history. There are 3 who will shape the future! 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.

The Hour Is Come - Part 3 of 3

October 06, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

This is no movie. The images we see in the middle chapters of Revelation are so horrifying that even the most jaded Hollywood filmmakers can't portray it.The suffering and destruction are beyond human imagination. And yet, they will happen. What should be our response to God's overthrow of all human and demonic rebellion? Maybe gratitude. Here's Jim in Revelation 11 for the conclusion of his sermon, The Hour is Come. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (C...

The Hour Is Come - Part 2 of 3

October 05, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

The word of the day is "gestalt." That great German word is about the overall impression we get from a large work - zooming out from the individual pieces to see the "30,000-foot view." Sometimes the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Through several chapters of the book of Revelation we're overwhelmed by event after event. But today Jim would like us to pull back from these individual incidents, to see the "big picture." Here's Part 2 of, The Hour is Come. Listen to Right Start ...

The Hour Is Come - Part 1 of 3

October 04, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

God's gifts of forgiveness and reconciliation could be called a "limited time offer." For 2,000 years we've been waiting. And that's given skeptics ample opportunity to sneer about God's "delay." But on this broadcast we'll open the book of Revelation to see what happens when time runs out; when "the hour is come;" when "there will be no more delay!" This sermon continues our series in Revelation called, With John on the Isle of Patmos. Jim will open with prayer. Listen to Right Start R...

Heaven And Earth Shall Pass Away - Part 3 of 3

October 03, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

God loves humanity; God will judge humanity. "For God so loved the world..." begins our favorite verse, "that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." The clear implication is that those who choose not to believe, will perish. And we see at least part of what that means, in the passage we'll examine today. We've been reading about the judgments of God; today we'll see how they end. Here's Jim, in Revelation 15. Listen to Right S...

Heaven And Earth Shall Pass Away - Part 2 of 3

October 02, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

Seven seals, seven trumpets, seven bowls. The judgments of God are perfect. And when the last bowl, or vial, of His wrath is poured out, those punishments will be complete. We'll look at the lion's share of these judgments on today's program. There's nothing haphazard in these expressions of divine anger. They're not irrational outbursts, but proportional responses to human wickedness. Here's Jim with Part 2 of, Heaven and Earth Shall Pass Away. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday ...

Heaven And Earth Shall Pass Away - Part 1 of 3

September 29, 2023 05:00 - 22.8 MB

"Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away." We're not exactly studying Revelation; we're studying how to study Revelation! And the title of the lesson that we'll begin today comes from Jesus' words, "Heaven and earth shall pass away."
