Tramps get no respect. In the movies, the hooker is rescued from her ways by a Prince Charming-type character, and they live happily ever after. In real life, not so much. In Revelation 17 and 18 we see a woman of questionable virtue. Her name is Babylon. She will be betrayed and destroyed by those she thought were her friends. And this woman of the night will get no pity from us, or anybody. Here's Jim with Part 2 of, Queen of the Earth.

Do fish know they're wet? We don't think about Babylon very often. We don't see it or feel it all around us. Like a fish in water, this just feels normal to us. But the religious, political and economic system known in the Bible as Babylon is headed for a fall - two falls, actually. We need to become aware of this anti-God system, and extricate ourselves from it. We're in Revelation, chapters 17 and 18 for Jim's sermon, Queen of the Earth.

The Beast - his Wound; his Words; his Worship. It's been something of a parlor game among Christians in my lifetime to guess who the Antichrist might be. Is he alive now? Is his name already known among the political elite of the world? Fortunately, Revelation 13 gives us some unmistakable signs as to the identity of the Man of Sin. When he appears, his actions will leave no doubt for anyone who can find a Bible.

Globalism: One more thing we read about first, in the Bible. In the past there were some monarchs who believed themselves to be king of kings, ruler of the world - but they weren't really. As vast as their empire may have been, it was only the civilized world, or the known world. But there's a man coming who will really subjugate the entire planet. He's a globalist dream-come-true, and a nightmare for everyone else. Here's Jim with the message, Superman Rules the Earth.

A man from Taranaki has been making a side hustle out of delivering cut price groceries from the giant wholesaler to New Plymouth hundreds of kilometres away. Kaleb Halverson spoke to Lisa Owen.

What happens when a dragon loses his wings? From an exalted position in Heaven, down to the Earth, down to the Abyss, and finally into the Lake of Fire. That's a precipitous fall - and that's the future of our adversary, the devil. Not "one possible future," not the worst-case scenario for him, but his certain doom. Let's join Jim in Revelation 12.

There's a three-part drama in Revelation 12! Today and Monday we'll watch 3 acts, starring 3 main actors, in a theatrical-style performance in the heavens. John calls it a "sign," a symbolic portrayal of supernatural forces in conflict. If we watch closely, we'll learn something about the persistence of the devil, and the ultimate victory of God.

"Son of man...eat this scroll." Ezekiel was told to eat a scroll that had been written on, front and back, with "lamentations, sighing and woe." In Revelation 10 John re-enacts that scene, with a little scroll that was sweet in his mouth, but bitter in his stomach. And then, these men of God were told to prophesy. Jim will tell us what John said after that meal.

Jesus' ministry lasted about 3-and-a-half years, we think. The Two Witnesses of Revelation will preach for just that long. Three-and-a-half years also just happens to be the duration of the drought in Israel during the ministry of Elijah. There are a lot of things coming together in the passage we're about to read. Revelation has been called the "Grand Central Station of Scripture" for good reason. We'll start in Chapter 11. Jim's ready with a message called, Two for Forty-Two.

If people will still be saved after the Rapture, why not just wait? - says the devil. During at least part of the Great Tribulation the world will have the 2 great prophets proclaiming God's message; 144,000 Jewish believers; an innumerable host of martyrs; and two flying angels. God seems to be pulling out all the stops to "by all means save some." Does that mean we can take His grace for granted? Here's Jim in Revelation 7.

When the church goes up, God is not out! The Spirit of Jesus dwells in His people, His "body" - but it's also true that He is not confined by that. He is everywhere. So when all believers are snatched off the Earth in the Rapture, that's not the end of God's presence on the planet, nor of His outreach to humanity. Salvation During the Tribulation is the title of Jim's message, and we begin today with the congregation reading the entire 7th chapter of Revelation.

Would you take marching orders from a frog? "Three unclean spirits like frogs" persuade kings to assemble their armies at Armageddon - you can read it for yourself in Revelation 16. These are not high-status demons; they're contemptible. But apparently they tell world leaders what they want to hear. We're in the middle of the Seven Bowls of God's Wrath, with Jim.

Demo before reno! All of us who have survived a major home renovation know that the demolition phase of the project is almost unbearable. The noise, the dust, the inconvenience. We wonder if any improvement could be worth this! Well, the divine renewal of the Earth will be that process writ large. And God's "spirit level" is a moral one.

A group of rough sleepers in New Plymouth are backing a propsoal to allow them to use a council car park as a place to hang out. But they warn a police crackdown on their antics in the CBD will only push them out into residential neighbourhoods. Taranaki Whanganui reporter Robin Martin spoke to the rough sleepers.

Send us a text2021 New Zealander of the year, microbiologist and award winning science communicator, Siouxie Wiles cycled to Penny's west Auckland whare this week to chat about making the world a little pinker. They got the party started chatting about her lawsuit with her employer, the online abuse she suffered at the hands of internet AND parliamentary trolls during her promotion of the NZ Government's eradication response to COVID, and her ambitions to be Maverick in Top Gun. From there she discussed her polycystic ovarian diagnosis, her inspirational science teacher and what her boobs have in common with The Queen. Also turning 50, making bacteria glow in the dark and being fueled by all consuming rage. Oh yes and fabulous pink hair. Obviously.  Penny also made a concerted effort to praise Siouxie's brain, even if she took some convincing. People of New Plymouth, come and see Penny in The Tempestuous May 16-17. https://www.iticket.co.nz/events/2025/may/the-tempestuous Support the show

What's in your storehouse? The heavens are called, "the storehouse of His bounty." And the Old Testament prophets waxed poetic about the treasures that God has stockpiled there: things like rain, wind, snow, and other blessings. But we know from the New Testament that some people are "storing up wrath for themselves," and today we'll look at the time when those treasuries will be opened. As we try to come to grips with these judgments, let's keep in mind that all of them have been well-earned.

The subterranean level of a council car park, a derelict night-club and a prison dating back to the 1870s have all been suggested as a temporary place for New Plymouth's rough sleepers to hang out in the day. Taranaki Whanganui reporter Robin Martin has more.

It turns out there is something worse than the judgments recorded in Revelation: it's the people being judged. If we had not read John's Gospel, or his letters, we might believe that he saw mankind as irredeemable. These people continue to murder each other, and worship demons, and commit unimaginable wickedness - while the judgment of God is falling on them!

Our "blue marble" will become a smoldering, black ball. There will be an assault from the sky - we'll read about it in Revelation, chapter 8. Then Jim will continue reading as the text warns of attacks from beneath the surface of the Earth... and across the surface... from the atmosphere... from the formerly-solid ground... and the Woes keep coming. One thing we won't see in Revelation 8 through 11 is the Church. Maybe there's a reason for that.

We've come a long way from the Babe in the Manger! From the Stable, to the Cross, and then to the Empty Tomb, the gospel demands that we keep opening our minds to try to understand who Jesus is. If we can also see Him as the Lamb on the throne of Heaven, executing judgment, then we have something like a full picture. It's a Christ that few recognize. But after all, Heaven - not Bethlehem - is His "hometown." We're in Revelation 6.

The book of Revelation is a love letter? When we open the last book of the Bible we see divine wrath. We see wave after wave of judgment. But we need to see a little deeper. If this is "The Revelation of Jesus Christ," then we should be looking for Him. And we find Him, as the Lamb. The Creator. The Bridegroom. Is it love for His creation, and especially for His Bride, that's motivating His anger toward those who destroy?

God has accepted the rebels' challenge. And woe to them! "If there is a God, and if He is good, why does He allow evil and suffering?" It must seem like a powerful attack on the character of the Almighty, even though the question was answered a very long time ago. Things will not always be as they are now.

There's no "stairway to Heaven," but there is a door.... As we move forward in our study of the book of Revelation we move up, with John, to God's residence! And we'll note that this visit is by invitation only. The Apostle got there by no effort on his part. He didn't even have to knock; a Friend had already opened the door. But he needed one more thing to survive in this ethereal environment. Jim will talk about that and more today, in his sermon, The Heart of it All.

A cold church, a compromised church, a crushed church, and a complacent church. On Friday we began Looking for a Great Church. Of course the way people look for anything these days is by reading the reviews! Jesus reviewed seven churches in the early chapters of Revelation. And His ratings ranged from Outstanding, to Disgusting. Let's drop back into the sermon as Jim is examining the words dictated to the church in Ephesus, in Revelation 2.

What does Jesus want your church to be? And do? First let's remember that it's the Lord's church, not ours; He is the Head of His Body - He calls the shots. So our grand visions and well-meaning objectives aren't actually relevant. We know what churches today are. Is that what they're supposed to be? To find the answer, we'll need to open the Scriptures. Christ left some guidelines for churches in the hands of His disciple, John.

"I know your works," Jesus wrote. Each of the seven churches in Revelation 2 and 3 got a personalized letter. The Lord of heaven was intimately acquainted with the situation "on the ground," as we say. But there were some commonalities to these letters, too. And those parallels are what we began to study yesterday, in the sermon called, Who Runs My Church? Here's Jim with the rest of that message.

If you want to find out about Jesus, you should talk to His Wife! "For better or for worse," when your unbelieving friend thinks about Christ, he very likely reflects on the Christians he has known. He isn't wrong to do that; it's our job and our joy to radiate the character of God to the world.

Has God taken you out of the game? The Apostle John had been discarded on the "Alcatraz" of his day, cut off from his spiritual community in Ephesus, all his closest friends martyred. It would have been easy for John to imagine that he'd been sidelined from his apostolic mission. But we know something he didn't: God had chosen him to see - and record - a special vision. We call it the book of Revelation. Here's Pastor Jim with Part 2 of his sermon, An Amazing Secret.

"If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead." It isn't the cold cynicism or the scientism of our age that leaves people unpersuaded by the Resurrection of Christ. Jesus Himself, speaking to religious folks 2,000 years ago, exposed the hardness of the human heart. Something else would be required to break through the barrier of man's stubbornness. That "something" is a Someone: the Holy Spirit.

Jesus' appearance to Mary Magdalene on Easter Morning was a side trip.The King of Life had died, descended, and on the third day rose from the dead - as all Christians confess. But He had farther to rise! He couldn't stay long in the Garden to comfort Mary, but He had instructions for her: Something to stop doing, and something to do. We're looking at John 20, verse 17, as today Jim brings us Part 2 of his sermon, The Real Triumphal Entry.

RS04162025_0.mp3Scripture References: Luke 24:26

Jesus was a busy man... while He was dead! If we were to think about the phases of the Lord's preaching ministry, we might overlook one of the most important: His proclamation to the dead, while dead. The Apostles didn't give us abundant information on what Christ was doing during those 3 days His body was in the grave, but they did give us some. And when we put those fragments together, we get a fascinating picture. Here's Jim to tell us about, The Real Triumphal Entry.

RS04152025_0.mp3Scripture References: Luke 24:26

The battle for our salvation was decided not on Mount Calvary, but on the Mount of Olives. It was in the Garden of Gethsemane that the Lord wrestled with His own humanity to bring His will into alignment with the Father's. "Wrestled" is the right word. And without the victory He won on -that- hill, the events of the next day might have been different. We'll visit that Garden and even the Empty Tomb today - but we open in Matthew 26, in the Upper Room.

RS04142025_0.mp3Scripture References: Matthew 26 - 27

The scene is: "Everywhere." In just a few chapters, Matthew takes us from a comfortable home in Bethany, to the borrowed Upper Room in Jerusalem; from still Gethsemane, to the clamor inside the High Priest's house, to the coldness of the courtyard. It's a whirlwind of motion that's hard to keep up with. The impression is one of frenzy - with one calm Figure in the center. We're ready for Part 2 of The Women's Wonderful Witness from Matthew's Gospel.

The best man for the job may indeed be a woman! In the hours leading up to Jesus' crucifixion, some ladies showed extraordinary insight. Believing and pagan; mature and young; powerful and powerless - these women seem to have little in common except for the sisterhood of the double X chromosomes. Our friend Matthew highlights the contributions of these women in his Gospel.Today Jim will talk about The Women's Wonderful Witness, after a word of prayer.

The Lead Actor is about to appear. The drama was being performed exactly as written, with Judas, Caiaphas, Pilate, and even Pilate's wife playing their parts perfectly. If you're familiar with Matthew's Gospel, you know that he's driven to tie the events of Jesus' life back to the Scriptures. The text of this play was written by the Prophets. But at the climax of the drama, in Matthew 27, the Main Character has a non-speaking role.

RS04092025_0.mp3Scripture References: Matthew 20; 26; 27

Would you like to hear some testimony about Jesus from hostile witnesses? We know what John believed about Christ; what about Judas? Peter waffled and wavered in his testimony, and that's never good; was Pilate's confession more steady? How about the "other side," the Prosecution, the men who wanted this Nazarene blasphemer dead - what was their sworn testimony? Could it be that even hardened enemies like Caiaphas were forced to admit the truth?

Air New Zealand has yet to explain exactly what a passenger was carrying in their hand luggage that forced a plane to divert to New Plymouth on Tuesday night. Passenger Cally McKenzie spoke to Alexa Cook.

We can't touch the print of the nails in Jesus' hands, as Thomas could. Is there evidence for the Resurrection that we can examine, today? We won't be blessed to hear the Lord's audible voice; we can't even watch Him eat a fish, like the Disciples could. But that doesn't mean we have to rely on their impressions alone. God left evidence for us, as well. On today's episode Jim will give us 4 proofs to consider. We join him in John, chapter 20 as the Lord speaks to Mary Magdalene.

RS04072025_0.mp3Scripture References: John 20

The Resurrection is hard to believe - at least, the Disciples thought so! If the Apostles made up the story about Jesus rising from the dead, why did they make themselves look so bad in that story? Faithless, prideful and a bit dumb is how they're portrayed in their own Gospels. And why did they invent a story that was totally implausible to everyone, including themselves? Reality can be rough on our assumptions, sometimes. Here's Jim with Part 1 of, What Do You Suppose?

Pilate may have been unfamiliar with truth, but he knew what was false. Maybe it was just a matter of experience. The Roman governor of Judea had met plenty of liars in his time, but few if any honest men. He could size up the envious Sanhedrin instantly; he understood the chief priests and Barabbas alike - and they were much alike. But the Man before Pilate now was a mystery. We're in the Gospel of John, chapters 18 and 19 with Jim.

Truth, or tyranny. When Pontius Pilate asked the infamous question, "What is truth?" he could have been teaching at an American university today. The war on reality has wrought such destruction in our lives that we forget it's been going on for a long time. If truth is indefinable, then "right" and "justice" are illusions... and all that remains is raw power. We'll see that clearly in the interviews we'll study today.

What's the appropriate greeting for April Fool's Day? "Happy" April Fool's Day doesn't seem quite right. "Blessed?" No. Well, how about if we devote the next half hour to understanding the depth of human folly, and its end? Remember, "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.'" Or if there is a God, He doesn't mind... or if He does mind, we'll just.... Foolishness. Here's Jim to conclude our "Angels" series with, The Tale of Two Destinies.

The end of the world, as we know it. There will be a last President, a final Prime Minister, a Secretary-General who turns out the lights and doesn't bother to lock the door. God will drain the swamp - not the little one you may be thinking about, but the whole giant cesspool of the world's power, arrogance and wickedness. And where will you be when the music stops?

Are angels guilty of election interference? We know - from Daniel for example - that angelic beings are involved in geopolitical matters. That's all behind the scenes, or "above" the scenes. And many of us believe that angels operate in our lives on a personal level. How much influence do they have in "our" world? And if they're guiding people and nations toward certain outcomes, what do angels know about the divine Plan, and the Timetable of that Plan?

The mystery will become history! Did you know that God has a secret plan? In your Bible Revelation 10:7 may include a phrase about "the mystery of God" being "accomplished." But we shouldn't think of this mystery as a religious ritual, or a "mystery of Nature." It's more like a secret wartime operation, bursting into the light just as it's being carried out! And this Plan has been hidden in plain sight.

We don't pray to angels - but they are involved in our prayers! Our series on angels continues with a peek at the scene in Heaven that John saw. Along with the Elders and the Elect, that beloved Apostle took note of many angels. Some were apparently different than others; and they had various responsibilities.

A birds-eye view is good... but what if we could get an angels-eye view? From day to day, we can get caught up in the day-to-day. We work through our schedule task by task, meeting by meeting. Sometimes our projects seem to multiply faster than we can check them off. Our perspective is as wide as our smartphone screen. We're very much in need of a "zoom-out," to get the big picture. That's how the holy angels see it, and it's a heavenly view!

One thing about messengers: They usually have something to say! There are so many angels in the book of Revelation (including all the evil angels as well as the messengers of God) that we almost need a scorecard to keep track of them! If you want to know what angels do and what they say, you've come to the right place: John's Apocalypse. In an unprecedented time of judgment, God's heralds carry the unchangeable gospel.
