Right Start Radio With Pastor Jim Custer

They had pierced Jesus' hands and feet... but His Spirit pierced them to the heart. Besides the witness of the miracles that the Lord performed, corroborating the testimony of John the Baptist and the voice of the Father Himself, there was Another. He came a bit later. But when the third Person of the Trinity spoke, He spoke with power, and He spoke in every language.

"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.

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?

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.

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.
