Right Start Radio With Pastor Jim Custer

The Temple will be a place where the true God is worshiped... until a false god struts in. Today we'll look at the "Abomination of Desolation." Daniel prophesied it, Jesus warned of it. It's the desecration of the most holy place by a most unholy person. But that place does not exist, today! Jim will bring us Part 2 of his sermon, When God Removes the Church, then afterwards I'll add a note about the future of this program. Please keep listening.

If Jesus' sacrifice made the Old Covenant offerings obsolete, why build another Jewish Temple? As we see in Revelation, chapter 11, not only will the Temple be rebuilt in Jerusalem, but it will serve an important purpose - the normal purpose of a temple: Worship. Pastor Jim will help us make sense of these events, today. And please stay tuned after the teaching part of the program for an important announcement.

There are good miracles, and bad miracles! Jesus supernaturally fed multitudes, but His Two Witnesses will cause drought and famine. The Lord turned water to wine; these will turn water to blood. They will kill people with fire, bearing testimony to the Christ who healed. Please stay with us for a special announcement at the end of the broadcast.

Time out! The Apostle John sometimes pauses the timeline of the book of Revelation to bring us some essential background information. We'll consider a couple of those "interludes," or "parentheses" today; we'll find them in chapters 7 and 11. The title of the sermon is: The 144,000 and the Two Witnesses. And I have some news about Right Start that I'd like to share with you after the message - please don't sneak out of church early today!

Crime does not pay. When you're tempted to think that sinners are the ones who have this game figured out - they're living the high life, while the righteous are being driven underground - take a look at Revelation, chapter 16. There we see the judgments of God falling relentlessly. It will seem like Hell on Earth at the climax of the Great Tribulation. Please stick around for the end of the broadcast: We have a special announcement about the future of Right Start.

"Let God arise!" the people of Israel used to sing. "Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered, and let those who hate Him flee before Him," is the rest of the verse from Psalm 68. Well, today we'll look at the joyful moment when the Almighty answers that prayer. We'll move quickly through the middle chapters of Revelation, but we'll start with chapter 9, verse 18. 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.

Killer angels. There was an award-winning book about the Civil War called The Killer Angels. But the bloody battle of Gettysburg is nothing compared to the one that will commence at the river Euphrates: Four angels, 200-million cavalry, resulting in the slaughter of a third of the world's population. And in the 9th chapter of Revelation we'll also find more proof of why all this is necessary. But first a short recap from Jim, to remind us where we've been.

There will be no atheists in the Tribulation! The Apostle John reveals that, while the wrath of God is pouring down upon the Earth, humans will worship demons - not that the demons appreciate it. Yesterday we talked about the Fifth Trumpet, and the Abyss being opened. The demons like locusts, that sting like scorpions, are about to teach humanity a painful lesson: Our times are in God's hands. Here's Jim with the finale of his message, The Seven Trumpets. 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 you hear these trumpets, it's too late! We get the sense, reading Revelation, that God isn't commanding new judgments to fall on the Earth; we don't hear Him pronouncing them. Instead, the punishment for man's rebellion has been "stored up," and is now being released, in stages. And with each new blast of a Trumpet it becomes clearer that there is no stopping, or even pausing, this wrath. Here's Jim in Revelation 8 with more of his message, The Seven Trumpets.

These trumpets are not for celebration! The Christians who first read John's Revelation had heard trumpets in various roles, like announcing a festival, warning of danger, proclaiming Roman dominance. The seven trumpets we'll read about today are ominous, official, and final. The Earth is about to change owners. And the wicked of the Earth are about to face the music.

Would you rather experience the wrath of the Lamb, or the wrath of the "Anti-Lamb?" If you belong to Christ you won't be here for either the divine judgments of Revelation 6, or the genocidal rage of the Antichrist. We believe you'll be watching these events from Heaven, as John did. But those who are "left behind" will have to choose whom to fear. Here's Jim to finish his message, The Seven Seals.

The Bible is the most important book on Earth, but there is another book not on the Earth. John witnessed a scene of high drama in Heaven. He saw a scroll. And this scroll must be opened for the sake of God's plan, and justice, and the future of humanity. But no created being could open it. All of us were unworthy. Here's Jim in Revelation 5.

There's more than one "decision for Christ!" Believers know well that we made a choice - maybe a long time ago - that affected our eternity. That was our decision to turn around and follow Jesus. But you've made some eternity-shaping choices already today... and you'll make more before the day is over. Here's Jim in 1 Corinthians 3 to wrap up his sermon, Letters to the Churches, Part 2.

Forgiveness... and consequences! Yesterday we began to look at the paradox of God's free gift of salvation, and rewards for "good conduct." Rewards or losses, I should say. Today we'll take a look at what's at stake at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Our sins are forgiven, truly - with no asterisk. But that doesn't mean that overcomers and the overcome will get the same rewards.

What we do today, matters. If we know for sure that we are saved by grace through faith apart from our works, then we own a priceless truth. But the devil can still use that truth against us! He tries to persuade Christians that because their conduct can't save them, therefore God doesn't care what they do. It sounds silly when you say it out loud, but many believers have been snared in that half-baked theology. So today Jim will take us to the Judgment Seat of Christ.

Will you come before the King empty-handed? We've heard Christians say, "I don't want any rewards. Being with Jesus will be enough for me!" But will they still feel that way when others are bringing gifts to the Savior, and they have nothing? That's a question to get us started thinking about the "crowns" in Revelation, chapter 4. We'll also talk about clothes - the Bride will wear white - and what happens after the Wedding Feast. Here's Pastor Jim to conclude his sermon, A Message for the Church.

John's task is to describe the indescribable God! "No one has seen God at any time," John wrote. But... John saw something, just as Ezekiel had seen a Being on the throne. Both compared the emanations that struck their eyes to the look of brilliant gemstones. We said yesterday that Heaven is not a metaphor. Now, as we read further in Revelation 4, we're reduced to analogies in order to communicate anything about the Lord of Heaven.

Do you believe in Heaven? I mean, really? We've been lulled to sleep about the realities of Heaven and Hell. Today these doctrines are dismissed as relics of an unenlightened age. Who today could possibly believe in a "literal" Heaven, and a "literal" Hell? Well, the Apostle John believed. He was transported, somehow, to Heaven. And he didn't see fluffy clouds, and people strumming harps. He didn't see a metaphor. What did he see? Let's find out today, with Jim.

Sometimes you have to show your ID... to yourself. "Remember who you are," the Apostle John seems to be saying to us as he begins his final message - the closing book of the Bible. "Think about what Jesus paid for you, and about your true position in Him, because some tough love is coming." Some of the churches were going off track already, even before the last Apostle had died.

"To Him who loves us, and..." "Jesus loves you" has become a trite phrase, partly because it's simple enough to be twisted by those who do not love you. "To Him who loves us, and has freed us from our sins by his blood," at least gets us started toward understanding divine love. That blood is the most precious element in the universe; it's the only thing that could "free us from our sins."
