Right Start Radio with Pastor Jim Custer

"If God is good, why does He allow so much evil in the world?" That's a question we should be prepared to answer if we assert that God is morally good - noble, virtuous, upright. So, in our final sermon in the Attributes of God series, we pivot from the subject of His greatness, to His goodness. It turns out that the Almighty is better than anyone could have imagined; and that He gives His children the power to imitate His goodness. Here's Jim to help us explore The Goodness of God.

Christians do not engage in "blind faith!" We believe, because God is believe-able. Faith is the rational response to a God this faithful. To open up the month of August, we'll get into some interesting discussions about both the faithfulness and the justice of Heaven, and how there might seem to be tension between those aspects of the divine nature... after we've wrapped up last week's talk on God's inescapable presence.

Where is God, and what is He doing? Those are questions we'll try to answer this week on the program. Of course God is in Heaven, but that answer isn't complete. He's also right next to you, and (if you're a Christian) He's inside you. How can these things be, we want to know. And as for what He's doing, most people have nary a clue. If we can see God as He is, we will be changed.

There are some attributes of God that are obvious (He is incredibly intelligent and powerful). Other divine qualities are like treasures, hidden for us to find. This week Jim has a bit more to say about the unchanging nature of the Creator; and he'll take us from Psalms to the Epistles to show that God not only knows all, but He is wise in His choices! Exploring these traits can help us see the greatness of our King, to worship Him, and to live like His children.

God is not like us. It's a very human tendency to try to make Him like us, or to frame our thoughts about Him in human terms - but it's wrong. When the seraphs cry "Holy, holy, holy," they declare that God is separate, apart, other. This week Jim will help us understand some of the "most different differences" between the Creator and His creatures. He'll talk about God's eternal existence, His infinite knowledge and power, and his immutable character.

When people try to imagine what God is like, they're using the wrong tool for the job. Our imagination is part of us - corrupt, flawed, and limited. If we want to come to know God, we'll have to examine His creation for clues, and pay very close attention to the things He's revealed about Himself in the Bible. This week we're continuing our Attributes of God series with sermons on His self-existence, His self-sufficiency, and His eternity.

This week we're continuing our Attributes of God series with sermons on His self-existence, His self-sufficiency, and His eternity.

The 250th Anniversary of American independence has been marked mostly by people trying to sell me merchandise! (Which is very American, when you think about it.) Beings act according to their nature. Even God. So what is the nature of the Divine Being, and how can we align our natures with His? Jim has chosen to begin a study on The Attributes of God with a look into the doctrine of the Trinity. Here's part 2 of, They is One.

Who is God... really? "And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." The Pharisees thought they knew God. The New Agers think they recognize God in themselves. The imagination of mankind has spun out idols uncountable. Well, who is the true God? And how can we know Him? We'll pursue answers to those questions in our new series, The Attributes of God.

Sola Gratia didn't come from Martin Luther; it came from the event we'll read about today. "...it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved...." That's Peter. "Saint" Peter, if you like. The cry, "By Grace Alone" didn't start in the 1500s, but in Acts 15, very early in the life of the church. Here's Jim to complete his talk, By Grace - Not by Law.

Somebody left the back door to the church unlocked, and the Gentiles are sneaking in! OK, alright; God has chosen people from pagan nations to become Christians, too. We'll get used to that. Eventually. But they'll have to come through the front door - the Mosaic Law! So said the legalists. But the church was about to determine that Faith is the front door, the only door, into the Kingdom of God. Here's the first part of Jim's sermon, By Grace - Not by Law.

The gospel, honored; the gospel, rejected. On Friday we were looking at Acts 13, and finding two very different responses to the gospel, as proclaimed by Paul and Barnabas. To say that the Gentiles received the Good News and the Jews didn't is an oversimplification. Today we'll jump back into Luke's account of politics, paganism and portents. Here's Pastor Jim to conclude his talk entitled, Serving in the Zone.

When we come to Acts 13, there's a shift in the story. Really, it's hard to keep our footing in the book of Acts, so much is happening - including things that have never happened before! But when the gospel made it to Antioch it established a beachhead, and launched out. Here was a church made up of both Jews and Gentiles; a fellowship that prayed; that heard from God; a church that cared. Today we'll hear the first half of Pastor Jim's sermon, Serving in the Zone.

Cornelius was devout... but he was not saved. It must have taken courage for the Roman Centurion to abandon the numerous gods of his nation. He became devoted to the one true God. If anyone could have claimed righteousness by his own merits, it was Cornelius. But he needed to hear and respond to the good news of Jesus, like everyone else. It was a stretch for Peter to even enter his home, but what happened in that living room changed the world.

RS06252026_0.mp3Scripture References: Acts 10-11

Preaching to Gentiles - is that even kosher?! The kosher dietary laws became a symbol for something much more important, in Acts 10. That's where Peter gets that vision of a sheet lowered from heaven, full of unclean animals. He learned that "clean" and "unclean" is a distinction that God can un-make. And the unclean pagan masses were about to meet the cleansing word of the gospel. Here's Jim to begin a sermon called, Proud Peter Processes Pork.

Does your Christianity have a cross? Saul of Tarsus was chosen to suffer. But we shouldn't think he was unique in that. Jesus said, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me." This is not a message that fills arenas with eager hearers. But many of us do long to be significant, perhaps even to be heroes. Jim will connect those dots with Part 2 of his sermon, Hero: Chosen to Suffer.

The Damascus Road is the road to devastation... and redemption. When Jesus stopped Saul in his tracks, the Lord could have said, "I'm done with you." He could have sent him directly to Hell for his crimes - and Saul knew it. But Jesus wasn't done with this "chief of sinners;" He had work for him to do.

Pressure. Stress. Overwhelming troubles. Should we hate them less? In the book of Acts we see some men who received supernatural confirmation of their faith! It came when they were facing death. Paul, Peter and Stephen walked through the "valley of the shadow," and it changed them. Today Pastor Jim will share some personal experiences that have convinced him more than ever that God is near, and His Word is true.

Death will change your life! Maybe Paul wasn't actually dead when he got his glimpse of the next world: "in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows," he wrote. But some kind of switch was flipped for Paul, and Peter, and Stephen, in the worst crises of their lives. These men were transformed by encounters with the supernatural when their natural lives were, or seemed to be, over. Here's Jim with the middle segment of his message, Stephen's Death.

Stephen's "vision" was better than 20/20. We think of Stephen as the first Christian martyr, a powerful preacher, even a theologian. But is there more we can learn from this servant of Jesus, especially when we compare his experience with others'? It isn't difficult to see into the next world; all it takes is for God to remove the blindfold. You may have gathered that we're back in the book of Acts, right where we left off earlier in the year.

"What is the chief end of man?" "Man's chief end (or purpose) is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever." That old chestnut from the Westminster Catechism comes to mind when we read the last 2 chapters of Revelation. This is what our Creator had planned all along: Perfect fellowship, safety and satisfaction. Today Jim concludes our series, God's Final Word. But the "final word" for Right Start has been postponed!

"And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." We think of Revelation as a book of catastrophe and destruction. But the point is what comes after all that: A new beginning for mankind with God. We'll talk about that glorious New Creation, then I'll share some good news about the program.

If you go to Hell, it will be over Jesus' dead body. I hope my opening didn't sound irreverent. What I mean is that Jesus died to keep you out of Hell. It takes serious determination to refuse God's grace for a lifetime. But many people are just that determined, and today we'll see them at the Great White Throne. That's the final of the "final judgments." If you haven't heard the news about the program - or if you have - please stay with us after we hear from Jim.

What do we mean when we talk about "the last judgment?" We saw in our previous excursion into the book of Revelation that we can get a bit sloppy about what we call "Heaven." We distinguished three states of bliss, not just one. Just so, there are 3 things that are often confused under the broad heading, The Final Judgment. And those are very, very different. Jim will help us sort them out, today. And we have good news about the future of the program! Let me tell you about that, after our lesson.

It's the Millennial Reign of Christ, and we'll read about it in Revelation 20. Today we'll hear the second half of Jim's sermon, then I hope you'll stick around for an announcement about the program.

If you find the King, you've found the Kingdom! Today we'll think about the differences between Heaven, the Millennial Reign of Christ, and the New Heavens and New Earth, all promised in the Bible. It's good to let our minds dwell on each of these - especially after some challenging chapters about divine wrath in our study of Revelation - but they are different.

Unbelievers will have to lament with Jeremiah that "Harvest is past, Summer is ended, and we are not saved." Today our study of the book of Revelation takes us to the last of the Last Judgments.

What happens before the Last Days? Any study of Revelation takes us forward into the future, all the way out to the end of Gentile history. And that calls for a study of the book of Daniel, and of Jesus' words on the subject. And that rewinds the film a bit, because the Lord gave us some indications of "the beginning of labor pains," saying, "the end is not yet." We'll look at some of those "near-end" indications today, then I'll have a special word about the ministry.
