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.

Steve Swartz, Selected Scriptures. From the "Millennium: The Tribulation" series.More sermons available online at www.gbcob.org.
The end times timeline does not terminate with man building a better world, repairing the damage of sin, or finally learning how to govern himself. It ends with the present heaven and earth fleeing away from the face of the One seated on the Great White Throne. Revelation 20 shows the final collapse of Adam's ruined world system, followed by the judgment of every lost soul who rejected the light God gave them. From that fearful scene, the prophetic timeline begins to unfold in reverse: the Great White Throne requires the end of the Millennium, the Millennium requires the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, the Second Coming requires the completion of the time of Jacob's trouble, and the Tribulation requires the removal of the blood-bought Church before the wrath of God is poured out.“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?” Matthew 24:3 (KJB)That is why the Bible believer is not waiting for the end of the world; we are waiting for the Lord from heaven. The next event for the body of Christ is not the mark of the beast, the rise of Antichrist, or the opening of the seals in Revelation 6, but the blessed hope of Titus 2:13 and the catching away of the Church in 1 Thessalonians 4. When you start at the end and work backward, the rightly divided timeline becomes clear. God will judge this world, restore Israel, reign from Jerusalem, destroy the final rebellion, judge the lost dead, dissolve the first creation, and make all things new. But before that final chain of events begins in earnest, the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, and the Church will be gone. Today we look at the end times prophetic timeline in reverse!YOU ARE INVITED: Come and be a part of our live and in-person Sunday Service starting at 11:00AM at the Bible Believers Church at the Bookstore in Palatka, Florida.
The book of Revelation records the end of world history and provides a brief window into what the future holds. Chapters 4-19 record a period that is known in Scripture by several titles: The Day of The Lord, the Tribulation, or the 70th week of Daniel. All these descriptions point to the same 7-year period after the rapture of the church, during which Christ prepares for His return by judging sinful man and saving the nation of Israel by drawing them back to Himself. Join us this week as we go back to the future! Beginning this Sunday, we are returning to our study of Revelation and its account of what is still to come. Since it's been two years since we were last in this book, this Sunday will give us a running start as we get caught up to where we left off. Don't miss this critical overview of what God has planned for the future of humanity.
I Have Overcome the World 25 “I have said these things to you in figures of speech. The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech but will tell you plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that […]
Send us Fan MailA hard night can make you wonder whether you're failing, whether your faith is too small, or whether God is fed up with you. We slow everything down and respond to a sister who's hurting, and that real moment becomes the clearest doorway into Romans 5:4–5: tribulation produces endurance, endurance produces proven character, and proven character strengthens hope. We're not interested in pretending pain isn't real. We're interested in how God meets us inside it. From there, we dig into the line that changes the tone of the whole passage: “hope makes not ashamed.” We talk about why Christian hope is not a fragile mood, why it doesn't end in disappointment, and how past experiences of God's faithfulness stack up over time until your view of the future changes. If you're searching for biblical encouragement for suffering, spiritual resilience, and practical Christian discipleship, this conversation stays close to the text while staying honest about what believers actually feel. We also spend time on Romans 5:5 and the assurance of salvation: the love of God is “shed abroad” in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. Not a trickle. Not a temporary loan. An abundant pouring that the Spirit confirms within us. That leads to a direct question many people carry quietly: can you lose salvation after a bad season? We explain why that idea collides with the hope Paul describes, and we point back to the objective work of Christ and the Spirit's internal witness that makes the believer's confidence well founded. If you've ever needed someone to bear the load with you, you'll hear what that looks like in real voices and real love.

Send us Fan MailPain has a way of shrinking your world until all you can see is the problem, the setback, the phone that will not ring, or the car that is not in the driveway yet. We sit with a sister who is carrying heavy family burdens and we do what the church is meant to do: we speak truth, we pray like it matters, and we refuse to let her suffer alone.We keep coming back to identity in Christ, because labels and circumstances are loud, but they are not final. We lean on Scripture that meets you in real life, not just on good days: Psalms 46 on God as refuge and strength, Psalm 16 on not being shaken, and the honest comfort of knowing God is present everywhere you go. There is also a clear reminder that hardship is not proof of abandonment, and that weakness can become the place where God's power is seen most clearly.A major moment centers on Isaiah 53, reflecting on Jesus as a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, and why that changes how we understand suffering, healing, and endurance. From there we get practical: building a gratitude practice with specific thank yous, finding joy by serving someone else, and lifting your eyes toward heaven when the current season feels endless. We also talk about wisdom and boundaries, because love does not always mean access, and caring for others includes caring for yourself.If you need Christian encouragement, prayer support, and a reminder that a real community can still exist, press play and stay with us through the hard parts and the laughter.

Send us Fan Mail“Glory in tribulations” is one of those lines that sounds beautiful until life gets real. We open Romans 5:3–4 and slow the whole chain down: tribulation produces endurance, endurance produces proven character, and proven character strengthens hope. We're not romanticizing pain or telling anyone to go looking for suffering. We're asking what changes when we truly believe we stand in grace through justification by faith, and when we trust God's providence is active even in the pressure. We also wrestle with the impulse to treat hardship as something Christians are promised to avoid. From Daniel to the fiery furnace, the pattern we see is God carrying his people through trials, not around them. That leads to a blunt conversation about “escape” mentalities and what they can do to our courage, our theology, and our expectations of the Christian life. If you've ever wondered whether suffering means God is distant, this will reframe the question. Then the discussion turns deeply personal. We talk about how trials expose what we really believe, why guilt is often the wrong lens for interpreting hardship, and how endurance is formed over time, not earned by performance. We also share living examples of tested faith and end with the group surrounding a hurting sister with empathy, Scripture, and reminders of her identity in Christ.

Send us Fan MailPeace with God is one of those phrases that can sound gentle and vague until you read Romans 5 closely. We slow down over Paul's words and treat them like courtroom language: “having been justified by faith.” That's not an ongoing negotiation with God or a spiritual probation period. We talk about justification as a finished verdict based on the imputed righteousness of Christ, and why that makes the believer's standing stable even when life and feelings are not.From there we follow Paul's first outcome: peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. We make a clear distinction between a subjective sense of calm and the objective reality of reconciliation, where the enmity caused by sin is removed by Christ's mediation. That naturally leads into a serious question Christians debate all the time: if God has declared someone righteous, can that declaration be undone? We walk through the implications for assurance of salvation, and we also address the concern about “bad fruit” by clarifying what works can and cannot prove.Finally, we move into Romans 5:2 and the next benefits: access by faith into grace where we stand, and joy-filled hope of the glory of God. We define biblical hope as confident expectation, connect it to resurrection through Christ as the firstfruits, and end with group reflections that bring doctrine down to street level, including how peace and access hold up under grief and instability.

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.

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.

Former Baptist pastor Ken Hensley concludes his series with Matt Swaim and Kenny Burchard about how the theological framework of Dispensationalism began to fall apart for him. In this episode, they finish their discussion of the prophecies of Jesus in Matthew 24, when the Lord foretells the destruction of the Temple, and the "end of the age." Many of these prophecies are seen by Dispensationalists to refer to the Rapture and the Tribulation; but their most immediate application was to the events that happened in Jerusalem in 70 AD, which Jesus accurately predicted. ***** The Coming Home Network was established in 1993 to help inquiring clergy and laity of various faiths -- or even no faith at all -- with fellowship, resources, and encouragement as they explore the possibility of becoming Catholic.

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.

Kingdom Activation of Remnant Ministry – Foundational Issues Part 1 | KIB 535 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description Are you ready for what God is about to release in the earth? In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake explore the spiritual preparation necessary for the activation of remnant ministry in the last days. As darkness increases and many believers struggle with discouragement and hopelessness, God is calling His people to deeper faith, greater endurance, and unwavering covenant fidelity. Mary Lou begins by addressing the enemy's strategy to attack God's calling on your life from the very beginning. She shares biblical encouragement for overcoming hopelessness and maintaining confidence in God's promises even during seasons of tribulation. Dr. Lake then dives deep into the biblical meaning of belief, revealing that true faith is far more than a one-time decision. Through an examination of John 3:16, Abraham's journey of faith, and the teachings of the New Testament, he demonstrates that genuine belief produces transformation, endurance, obedience, and spiritual maturity. This episode also examines: The difference between easy-believism and biblical faith Why God is preparing remnant believers for Kingdom assignments The necessity of covenant faithfulness in the last days How Babylonian systems have distorted ministry models The importance of returning to the biblical patterns found in the Book of Acts Why believers must develop spiritual discernment in an age of deception and AI-driven confusion The transition from being servants of God to becoming His trusted friends As God begins activating His remnant, it is crucial that believers build their lives upon biblical foundations rather than worldly systems.

"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.

Send us Fan MailRevelation has been sold as a scary code book for decades, but we're convinced it reads very differently when we let the text lead. We pick up in Revelation 1:9-10 and keep the spotlight where Scripture puts it: on Jesus Christ as Alpha and Omega, the Almighty, present with His churches. That single shift changes everything, because the goal isn't to satisfy curiosity about end-times trivia. The goal is to strengthen worship and endurance through the testimony of Jesus Christ. John writes from the Isle of Patmos as a “brother and companion in tribulation,” and we slow down long enough to feel the weight of that phrase. Tribulation, kingdom, and patience are not separate lanes; they describe ordinary Christian life in a hostile world where believers still belong to Christ's reign and must endure with steadfast hope. We also confront popular dispensational assumptions about a future seven-year tribulation and ask a simple question: how can tribulation be purely future if John shares it with the saints in his own day? From there we look at Patmos as both exile and commission, and we talk about what it means that John is “in the Spirit on the Lord's day.” This revelation is not human imagination, not a dream, and not an invitation to mystical speculation, code-cracking, or timeline charts. The trumpet-like voice signals authority, summons, and judgment and it calls the church to hear its King. If Revelation has ever made you anxious, this conversation is meant to steady you.

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.

Episode: Deleting Dementia — The Global Agenda to Put Patients to Sleep The medical profession has officially given up on diseases like dementia and severe mental illness. Instead of seeking real solutions, their final answer is simple: eliminate the patient. In this controversial "Filthy Friday" episode of Hardcore Christianity, Brother Mike celebrates his silver anniversary on the radio by tackling a chilling new frontier in the battle for human life. Pulling back the curtain on New Jersey’s recently introduced Senate Bill 4186, Brother Mike exposes the rise of DSADs (Dementia-Specific Advanced Directives). Under the guise of "comfort feeding only," these directives legally authorize caregivers to withhold lifesaving artificial nutrition, essentially starving vulnerable dementia patients to death. But this is just the beginning. From Europe to Canada, full-blown euthanasia is rapidly expanding to cover patients with chronic conditions like borderline personality disorder, schizophrenia, and severe psychosis. Why? Because the insurance carriers and corporate medical systems care more about protecting their bottom line than protecting human dignity. Brother Mike exposes the spiritual rot driving this agenda and reveals how the Bible predicted this exact hour: The Propagation of Deception: Examine 2 Timothy 3 to understand how the scriptures warned that in the last days, evil men and seducers would wax worse and worse, actively deceiving and being completely deceived by their own systems. The Spiritual Roots of Mental Infirmity: Look at biblical accounts of spiritual oppression and see how modern mental illnesses, dementia, and severe psychosis are consistently exacerbated or driven by demonic entities. The Testimony of True Deliverance: Hear powerful testimony of how the ministry has seen individuals suffering from full-blown schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder completely healed and delivered through the real-world power of Jesus Christ. They tested our obedience during the pandemic with social distancing and masks, and now they are watching to see if we will stand by while they decide that human life is cheap. The Rapture and the Tribulation are only a few years away. It is time to snap out of cognitive passivity, get the sin out of your life, and rededicate your soul before you find yourself next on their list.

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.

Episode: Meteors, Earthquakes, and the End of the World — Are We All Going to Die? The night sky is beautiful, but what happens when the stars start falling? In this explosive episode of Hardcore Christianity, Brother Mike tackles a question that is forcing its way onto the nightly news: Are we running out of time? Pulling directly from alarming NASA charting and recent real-world events—like the 230-ton fireball that recently shattered the peace over Massachusetts with a midday sonic boom—Brother Mike bridges the gap between modern data and ancient prophecy. Since the year 2000, the number of near-Earth meteorites has skyrocketed from 850 to tens of thousands, and destructive earthquakes registering between 6 and 8 on the Richter scale are accelerating staggeringly. Space is going crazy, and nature itself is screaming a warning. This isn't random coincidence; it is exactly what the Lord Jesus predicted would happen just before the Tribulation. Brother Mike walks you through the harrowing timeline of Earth's future, breaking down the catastrophic cosmic events detailed in the Scriptures: The Six Seals of Judgment: See the future unfold in Revelation 6, where the stars of heaven fall to the Earth like figs shaken from a tree, and a global earthquake rattles the planet. The Blazing Star of Wormwood: Unpack the sounding of the trumpets in Revelation 8. Learn about the giant asteroid destined to blaze through the atmosphere, poison a third of the Earth's waters, and create enough smoke to black out the sun. The Final Shake-Up of Jerusalem: Look at the severe prophetic judgments in Revelation 11 and the unprecedented destruction waiting on the horizon. The Worst Earthquake in Human History: Face the reality of Revelation 16, which promises a mighty shaking worse than anything seen since mankind was placed on the Earth—even surpassing the great flood of Noah. The Words of Christ: Ground your understanding in the warnings of Jesus from Luke 21, detailing the famines, pestilences, and fearful sights (phobeo—panic attacks) that will cause men's hearts to fail them for fear. The Rapture and the Tribulation are just around the corner, and time is officially running out. If you have been living in cognitive passivity, it is time to wake up, change your life, and rededicate your soul to the Lord before the judgment seals are opened.

Sermon Date: 06/10/2026; Brother Matthew Houser; Scripture Passage: Genesis 13:10-12Support the show
The devil did not make you do it! Nor did your mom, social inequity - not even a "Twinkie!" It seems that God will run a 1,000-year experiment to show that the problem with us, is us! 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. 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.

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. Please hang on for a word about the future of the program after Jim speaks. Here's Part 1 of his sermon called, Heaven. 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.

When the "Laws of Nature" are repealed! People foolishly imagine that they can reject God, refuse the rescue that came at the cost of His Son's life, and even deny His existence... but keep all His gifts: Light, comfort, companionship, and countless more. Here's Part 2 of Jim's sermon, The Day God's Patience Ran Out. And please listen for my announcement at the end.

The Day God's Patience Ran Out. One day the Sun will set on this Day of Grace. Someone's non-decision for Christ will be crystalized as a decision against Christ. 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. And there's an announcement about the future of the program coming, after we hear from Jim.

The Tenpenny Files – Todd Hampson joins Dr. Tenpenny to explore why Christians differ on the rapture, Israel, the Tribulation, and Christ's return. Drawing from Scripture and church history, he explains prophecy's role in the biblical narrative, argues for a pre-tribulation view, and shows how end-times teaching shapes faith and biblical understanding today...
Tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, nakedness, danger, sword. St. Paul lists them all in this section of his letter because he has faced most of them personally and he knows the Christians to whom he writes are facing the same and losing hope. He tells them plainly: none of it can separate you from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Christians have been holding on to these verses through every kind of suffering for two thousand years because the promise is that Christ does not let go, even when everything else does. The Rev. Roger Mullet, pastor of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Buffalo, WY, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Romans 8:31-39. To learn more about Prince of Peace, visit princeofpeacebuffalo.org. Why does doing the right thing sometimes feel impossible? Why do feelings of guilt follow us even when we've been forgiven? These aren't new questions. St. Paul wrote his letter to the Romans for a church he had never visited, and yet he addressed the struggles every Christian knows firsthand: the weight of the law, the persistence of sin, the sufficiency of what God has done in Christ. Romans covers enormous ground. Paul moves from the universal problem of sin through justification by faith, the role of baptism, the war between flesh and spirit, God's faithfulness to Israel, and the shape of life together in the body of Christ. There's a reason the Reformation was born in this letter. Join us on Thy Strong Word as we open up Romans, weekdays at 11am or on-demand anytime, at KFUO.org. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.
This one goes deep. "Into the Mystic" first aired in February 2014, and it brings together three accounts of the uncanny from three storytellers who had no map for what they were experiencing. Christine Lee, an Episcopal priest, has spent years navigating the gap between the faith she teaches and the faith she actually feels. When a parishioner with a seriously injured knee agrees to be prayed over, Christine finds herself in the stairwell of her church, watching something she cannot explain. (Content note: emotional abuse, child psychological abuse) Lulu grew up in 1970s Pittsburgh with a mother who was cruel and checked out. That summer, a neighbor's adult son with schizophrenia becomes her unlikely companion and proceeds to fill her head with detailed, terrifying visions of the Rapture, the Antichrist, and the Tribulation. Jen Kwok is with her then-fiancé's family on Staten Island when his father collapses from a heart attack on Christmas Eve. The days that follow are brutal, and something extraordinary happens on the bus ride back to the city.
