Scripture: Romans 12:3-5

Send us a textDrawing from Daniel chapter 3, this powerful message examines the courageous example of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego who refused to bow to King Nebuchadnezzar's golden image despite facing the fiery furnace. Their faith and conviction speak directly into the challenges Christians face today, where cultural expectations and political pressures often demand our allegiance in ways that contradict the Word of God.The tension between Romans 13—teaching that “God establishes authorities”—and the believer's responsibility to follow Christ first creates a challenging but important dilemma. As Reverend Ben Cooper boldly puts it, “God puts government in place, but then He gives us free will.” This is not a call to lawlessness, but a reminder that when human authority collides with divine command, our obedience must belong to Jesus above all.This message speaks into our divided world. Across nations and communities we see division by color, by finances, by postcodes, by schools, and even within churches. Yet the call of Christ cuts through the noise: “Am I going to follow Muppets on that side, or am I going to follow the ones that throw axes on that side? Who am I going to follow? I'm going to follow Jesus.”Through biblical exposition and practical application, the sermon challenges us to examine where we may have compromised with modern idols. These idols may not take the shape of golden statues, but they appear in ideologies, institutions, and systems that marginalize God's truth. From education systems that push Christian perspectives aside to churches that drift from biblical foundations, each believer is called to make a choice about where their loyalty truly lies.The message culminates with communion, reminding us that in Christ we discover unity that transcends political divides, denominational labels, or social barriers. At the Lord's table, we are one body, united by the cross. This unity is not found in cultural identity or human authority but in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.Wherever you stand politically or denominationally, this prophetic word will encourage you not to “conform to the pattern of this world” but to stand firm in biblical truth. It will strengthen your resolve to endure fiery trials with faith and to declare, like the three Hebrews, “Even if God does not rescue us, we will not serve your gods.”This timely message is a call to courage, conviction, and uncompromising devotion. Above all else, it is a call to follow Jesus.Support the showThank you for listening! For more inspiring content, visit our main site at RBChristianRadio.net.

A @Christadelphians Video: In this thought-provoking expositional report, we examine the heated debate surrounding Israel's presence in the Holy Land—is it an occupation or *colonialism*? From a biblical standpoint, the land belongs neither to Israel nor the Palestinians—it is the Lord's (Deuteronomy 11:12). We trace God's covenant with Abraham (Genesis 12:6-7, 13:15) and analyse the modern political rhetoric that seeks to redefine Israel's legitimacy. Revealing the shift in language from "occupation" to "settler colonialism," we explore how this narrative aligns with anti-Zionist agendas and historic revisionism. With tensions escalating since the October 2023 Hamas attacks, the world is witnessing a dangerous resurgence of anti-Semitism—propelling us closer to the prophetic showdown over Jerusalem (Zechariah 12:3).

Gratitude is a natural response to God's goodness—but does it show up in the way we give?Many pastors wish their congregation knew that giving isn't just about meeting a church budget—it's a vital part of growing as a disciple of Jesus. Today, Leo Sabo joins us to unpack three things your pastor wishes you knew about giving.Leo Sabo is the President of the Christian Stewardship Network (CSN). He has spent the last 22 years working with couples, individuals, and church leaders, helping them understand and manage their finances according to biblical principles.Why Conversations About Giving MatterEffective conversations between church members and leadership aren't just about meeting financial goals. Because God owns everything and we are His stewards, money decisions are both practical and deeply spiritual. How we handle what God has entrusted to us reveals our hearts and our motives.1. The Spiritual Benefits of GivingPastors understand the connection between generosity and discipleship. Trusting God with our money is a significant part of our spiritual journey—and once we embrace that, giving becomes a joyful act of worship.Stewardship is holistic, involving our time, talents, and treasures. A love-inspired steward sees everything—not just what we give—as belonging to God. Pastors want you to know that giving isn't a “membership fee” to the church. It's an offering to God, through the church, out of gratitude and worship.2. Stewardship Is Part of DiscipleshipStewardship means responsibly managing the resources God has entrusted to us, including money. Many churches offer classes and programs to help members budget, save, avoid debt, and invest wisely—all grounded in biblical principles.Jesus spoke often about money and possessions because He knew our relationship with them reveals the condition of our hearts. Faithful stewardship naturally leads to generosity, reinforcing the spiritual benefits of giving.3. Transparency and Accountability Build TrustIn an era when people are increasingly concerned about financial transparency, pastors want to ensure that members understand that the responsible use of donations is a priority. Church leaders have both a responsibility and an opportunity to demonstrate accountability.When you give, you're funding ministry—teaching, worship, community support, and the staff who make it all possible. Every act of generosity fuels the church's mission to serve both its members and the surrounding community.If you'd like to learn more about starting or strengthening a stewardship ministry in your church, visit ChristianStewardshipNetwork.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My 22-year-old son is graduating from college and starting his first job next year. What retirement planning advice should I give him—especially when it comes to private investments outside of his workplace retirement plan?I'm concerned that the housing market may be headed for a downturn similar to 2008. Here in Indiana, I see many new houses being built that most people can't afford, along with more foreclosures and repossessions. Why isn't anyone sounding the alarm? Am I overreacting, or do you see the same risks?I'm 61 with $300,000 in a Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) and about a year from retirement. Should I adjust my investments, move my money, or make any other changes as I approach retirement?My wife and I want to relocate from Florida to Colorado, where we already own a piece of land. We currently have two Florida homes with mortgages and have invested $80,000 in a Christian women's network. We'd like to speed up our move and build our Colorado home, but I'm unsure how to align our finances to make it happen.

In today's episode, Mike looks at what Peter, Paul, James, the writer of Hebrews and the Lord Himself say about suffering. He also uses the phrase, "you go girl!" You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others. Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No one serving as a soldier gets involved in civilian affairs–he wants to please his commanding officer. -- 2 Timothy 2 Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler. However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name. For it is time for judgment to begin with the family of God; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God? -- 1 Peter 4 Mentioned in this episode: Suffering is Not for Nothing.

Key data points include:An average of 24 people per minute are victims of intimate partner violence in the US, which translates to over 12 million women and men annually.Over one in three women and one in four men in the US have experienced physical violence, rape, and/or stalking by an intimate partner in their lifetime.Globally, around 140 women or girls are killed every day by a family member or intimate partner.Less than 40% of women who experience violence seek help of any kind.Gordon also provides a Christian perspective, explaining that while the Bible does not use the term "domestic violence," it strongly condemns the actions associated with it and advocates for peace, love, and protection within the family.00:00 Introduction and Trigger Warning01:35 Disturbing Clips of Domestic Violence03:40 Analyzing the Abusive Behavior06:53 Impact of Alcohol and Drugs09:40 Emotional Control and Responsibility10:55 Kidnapping and Control11:16 Confrontation and Plea for Release11:47 Analyzing Abusive Behavior14:12 Statistics on Domestic Violence15:18 Personal Testimony and Broader Impact19:44 Biblical Perspective on Abuse24:55 Creating a Safety Plan26:32 Resources and Legal Considerations29:15 Final Thoughts and EncouragementContact No Pillz: Tweet us @nopillzpodcast Email: nopillzpodcast@gmail.com YouTube: @nopillzpodcast Insta: @nopillzpodcast Thanks for listening & keep podcasting!

Continuing the last episode, Mike looks at the place of perseverance and rest as we walk through times of suffering.  So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For in just a very little while,     “He who is coming will come and will not delay.     But my righteous one will live by faith.     And if he shrinks back,     I will not be pleased with him.” But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved. -- Hebrews 10:35-39
