For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Jesus said those words at the Mount of Olives, as recorded in Matthew chapter twenty-four, verse seven. In light of these and other signs of the end of the age, how shall we now live?  Ron gives us three practical answers to that question next, as he continues his series, “What On Earth Is Happening? Examining the Prophecies of Jesus.”  

Looking for a sign? Let’s explore a few signs that the end might be near, on this Wednesday edition of Something Good. Just a few days before Jesus went to the cross on our behalf, some of the disciples sat with Jesus on the Mount of Olives and asked, “What will be the sign of your coming at the end of the age?” Ron explores the Lord’s answer next, as he continues his teaching series, “What On Earth Is Happening: Examining the Prophecies of Jesus.” 

God’s Word says we’re already living in the last days, that period of time between the first and second coming of Christ. But are we living in the final days of the last days? Well, people have been asking that question for almost two thousand years. Today, Ron shares his thoughts on where we stand in prophetic history as he continues his teaching series, “What On Earth Is Happening: Examining the Prophecies of Jesus.”  

Are we living in the last days? Well, when you look at all that’s been happening in the world for the past year or so, wars and rumors of war, a worldwide pandemic, cultural and social unrest, you can’t help but wonder if this is the beginning of the end. Today, Ron takes us back two thousand years, to the Olivet Discourse, when Jesus spoke of events that may very well be happening right before our eyes. 

“For from the rising of the sun to its setting my name will be great among the nations,’ says the Lord of Hosts.” That’s Malachi chapter one, verse eleven, and this is Something Good Radio. About four hundred years before the birth of Christ, the people of Israel had lost their passion for serving God. And in His last words to the Israelites for more than four Centuries, the Lord sent the prophet Malachi to remind them what He had done for them, and what He will do for them in the future. Ron takes us to these last words next, as he continues his teaching series, "The Ultimate Road Trip Through the Bible: The Minor Prophets.”

Have you ever felt like God doesn’t love you? If so, you’re not alone. Today, Ron takes us to the book of Malachi, the last book of the Old Testament and the last words God spoke to His people for more than 400 years. What were His final words?  What did God say to a nation that had grown apathetic and corrupt, and had begun questioning God’s love for them? Find out next, as Ron continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Minor Prophets.” 

God keeps His covenant with us even when we disobey. But there is a cost to disobedience. The prophet Zachariah warned the Israelites about the consequences of sin and disobedience. But he also spoke of a faithful God who will one day keep every promise He has ever made. Ron takes us to the book of Zachariah next, as he continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Minor Prophets.” 

Even when we don’t honor our covenant with God, He remains faithful to His covenant with us. Isn’t that good news? God remembers His covenant promises and keeps them, no matter how many times we fail. Coming up next, Ron takes us to the book of Zachariah and to a wonderful reminder that God always honors His commitments.  

Let me ask you, what are your priorities in life? The top five or six things that are especially important to you? Today, Ron takes us once again to the book of Haggai, when God sends the prophet to Israel to help put their priorities back in order.  His message was relevant then, and it’s still relevant now. Stay right here as Ron continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Minor Prophets.” 

The book of Haggai often goes unnoticed. It’s a short book, just two chapters, and its content doesn’t seem all that relevant. But even now, centuries later, it still holds many valuable lessons for believers today. Lessons about priorities, problems, perseverance, and the personal relationship God wants to have with us. Ron shares some of those lessons next, as he continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Minor Prophets.”
