Something Good Radio features the Bible teaching ministry of Dr. Ron Jones, lead pastor of Atlantic Shores Baptist Church in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Ron is a pastor, author, discipleship coach, and radio broadcaster.
You may think you know who you are. But do you know who you are in Christ? Well, before anyone can know who they are in Christ, they first need to know the truth about who Jesus is. Today, Ron takes us to the book of Colossians to identify the truth about Jesus, and the truth about who we are as a result. Stay with us now as Ron continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Pauline Epistles.”
Some two thousand years ago, false teaching had begun to creep its way into the church at Colossae. So the Apostle Paul wrote a letter to the Colossians to debunk those heretical ideas. What were these false teachings, and how does Paul’s letter apply to us today? Answers come your way next, as Ron continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Pauline Epistles.”
How can you find joy in the midst of adverse circumstances? Today, we return to the Book of Philippians, an epistle written by the Apostle while he was in prison. Despite his bleak circumstances, he chose joy. So can we. Stay with us now as Ron continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Pauline Epistles.”
“Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say rejoice.” Well, when the Apostle Paul wrote those words to the Philippian church, he was under house arrest in Rome. What he wanted the church to understand, what God wants you and me to understand, is that the joy of the Lord is not circumstantial, its intentional. It’s a choice we have the power to make no matter how we feel or what we may be going through.
Returning to the basics of our Christian faith, on today’s Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. Well, the book of Ephesians can be neatly divided into two sections. In the first three chapter, the Apostle Paul focuses on theology. In the final three chapters he shifts away from doctrine and turns his attention to duty. And one of the first duties he mentions is that all of us are called to be part of a local body of believers.
You may not know it yet, but if you’re a believer in Christ, you have been made spiritually wealthy. Well, the book of Ephesians is one of four prison epistles written by the Apostle Paul. He was under house arrest in Rome when he penned this letter. The Ephesian believers were living like spiritual paupers, and Paul wanted to change their perspective. Perhaps you need a change of perspective today. If so, stay with us now as Ron m...
You can’t get right with God by trying harder or doing better. There is only one way to be reconciled to God, and Dr. Ron Jones shares it with us next, on this Monday edition of Something Good. Some two thousand years ago, early in the Apostle Paul’s ministry, a group of people known as the Judaizers had tainted the pure Gospel of Jesus Christ. Paul wrote the book of Galatians, at least in part, to refute those false claims. Ron ta...
"I do not nullify the grace of God. For if righteousness were through the Law, then Christ died for no purpose." With these words in Galatians five, twenty-one, the Apostle Paul made his position clear. Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. But when some began to poison the pure Gospel of Jesus Christ, Paul responded swiftly by writing the book of Galatians. Ron takes us there next, as he move...
“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” The Book of Second Corinthians is largely dedicated to Paul’s defense of his ministry. But it also contains the largest section on stewardship and financial giving in the entire New Testament. Is tithing strictly an Old Testament idea? Is it part of the Mosaic Law? And is it still relevant today? Decide for yo...
In his first letter to the Corinthian church, the Apostle Paul was disciplinary. In his second, he was defensive. What changed? The Apostle Paul wasn’t always an apostle. He was once Saul of Tarsus, who persecuted the followers of Christ and did so in the name of God. After his conversion and subsequent rise to a position of authority in the church, some in Corinth still doubted his credentials. Paul wrote Second Corinthians to de...
Here in America, if you want to take a trip to Sin City, you’ll go to Las Vegas. But in first century Greece, you’d have gone to Corinth. Corinth was Vegas before Vegas. Prostitution and debauchery ran rampant. And when a little of the pagan Corinthian culture began to infiltrate the church the Apostle Paul had planted there, Paul took pen to parchment and wrote them a letter. What did he tell them, and how much of what he said ap...
Today, we return to the Book of Romans, a theological masterpiece, but one that can often be difficult to read and understand. The letter can be broken down into five parts, sin, salvation, sanctification, the sovereignty of God, and Christian service. It’s those final two, sovereignty and service, that Ron talks about next, as he continues his series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible.”
“In this world you will have trouble, but take heart. I have overcome the world.” That’s John sixteen, thirty-three, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. You know, we don’t have to go looking for trouble in this life. It was waiting on us before we even showed up. How do we overcome the pain and the struggles this life can often bring? Find out next, as Ron wraps up his important teaching series, “Kingdom Come: Lessons F...
A house is only as good as its foundation. The same is true of your life. In Matthew chapter seven, Jesus goes into great detail about making wise choices. If we do what He asks us to do, it will give us a strong foundation that cannot be shaken when the storms of life come our way. Stay with us now as Ron takes us to the final few verses of Matthew chapter seven in his teaching series, “Kingdom Come: Lessons from the Sermon on the...
Is it possible for you and me to know who is or who isn’t saved by grace through faith in Christ? It’s a fascinating question, and the answer isn’t always easy to articulate. But we’ll try to help you figure it out next, as Ron continues his series, “Kingdom Come: Lessons From The Sermon On The Mount.”
“Beware of false prophets. You will know them by their fruit.” That’s Matthew seven, verses fifteen and sixteen, and this is something good with Dr. Ron Jones. Jesus talked about how you and I can recognize false teachers. Listen to what they say, watch the fruit their lives bear, and that’s how you can tell. But does that mean we can know who has put their faith in Christ and who hasn’t? Do we have the ability to know who will be ...
“So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them.” That’s Matthew seven, twelve, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. It’s called the Golden Rule, and it’s one of the most well-known teachings of Christ. But what does it look like in day-to-day life? How can we apply it in our marriages? In our communities? In the workplace? Ron offers his thoughts today in his continuing series, “Kingdom Come: Lessons f...
Walk into any bookstore, and I think you’ll agree. We’ve written far too many books about self-improvement, and not nearly enough about self-denial. In Matthew chapter seven, Jesus gave us what is known in popular culture as the Golden Rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” Ron takes an in-depth look at this teaching next, as he moves ahead in his teaching series, “Kingdom Come: Lessons from the Sermon on the M...
Is there anyone in your life who constantly finds fault with you? Do you find yourself pointing out the faults in others? Today, Ron continues his teaching series, “Kingdom Come: Lessons From The Sermon On The Mount,” with an important message about an often-misunderstood word: Tolerance.
In today’s culture, tolerance has come to mean the acceptance of a person’s behavior, no matter what that behavior may be. But that’s not the way Jesus defines it! Up next, Ron takes us to an often misunderstood teaching of Christ found in Matthew chapter six, “Judge not, lest you yourself be judged.” What did He mean? Find out next, in Ron’s continuing series, “Kingdom Come: Lessons From The Sermon On The Mount.”
