Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones

He spent the early part of his career as a hitman for the Sanhedrin, persecuting the people of God in the name of God. Saul of Tarsus was not alone. In the early days of the church, he was one of many religious leaders who wanted to stamp out what they believed to be heresy. Over the next few weeks, Ron does a deep dive into the life of Saul, from his early years terrorizing Christians, to his mir...

Whoever loves money never has enough. Whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. Those words of wisdom came from Solomon, in Ecclesiastes chapter five verse ten. Today, Ron explains how the love of money can wreak havoc in our relationship with God. It’s the final installment of his teaching series, “His Money, Your Faith,” and it comes your way next.  

Jesus said, “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. In just a few moments, Ron continues his series, “His Money, Your Faith,” by a...

Have you fallen into the debt trap today? If you’d like to climb out but don’t know how, you’ve come to the right place. Today, Ron shares five practical steps to getting out of debt. They aren’t easy, but they are doable. And let’s face it, no matter how hard getting out of debt may be, it’s far easier than staying in it. 

Today, Ron takes us to the all-too-familiar problem of consumer debt. Many people struggle to make ends meet, and part of the problem is they’ve made a bad choice or two along the way. How can you get debt free? What is God’s plan for your finances? Find out next, as Ron continues his teaching series, “His Money, Your Faith.”  

When you look at your bank account, it may seem like you can’t afford to tithe. The truth is, you can’t afford not to. Today, Ron continues his series, “His Money, Your Faith” by giving us an in-depth look at God’s financial plan, what Ron calls the ten-ten-eighty plan. It’s biblical, it’s practical, and it’s essential for your financial health and your spiritual health. 

There are over two thousand verses in Scripture that have to do with money. If it’s that important to God, it should be equally important to us. God’s Word offers us several principles to help keep us from becoming slaves to debt. But as you’ll see today, financial freedom is not the only kind of freedom God offers us.  

If you’re wondering if God cares about the way we use our money, consider this, the Bible contains more than two thousand verses on the subject. Money can often distract us from doing God’s will, and it has the potential to enslave us if we’re not careful. Today, Ron shares three keys to managing our finances God’s way as he continues his series, “His Money, Your Faith.”  

When Pontius Pilate told Jesus that he had the authority to set Him free, Jesus said, “You would have no authority at all unless it was given to you from above.” Today, Ron reminds us that nothing we have is ours. We are stewards, not owners, of our money, our time, our talents. And when we learn to use our resources God’s way, we may be surprised by the results.  

It is appointed to man once to die, and--after that—the judgment. That’s Hebrews nine, twenty-seven, and this is Something Good with Dr. Ron Jones. At the end of days, there will be not one, but two separate judgments. The Great White Throne Judgment, and The Judgment Seat of Christ. What will these judgments look like, and who will be judged?  Ron has answers today as he wraps up his teaching ser...

Ever wonder why people say they don’t believe in Heaven? For many, it’s because they don’t want to believe in hell! Out of every seven or eight New Testament verses in which Jesus speaks, He mentions hell or eternal judgment in one of them. Find out what the Lord had to say next, as Ron continues in his teaching series, “Heaven: The Father’s House and My Eternal Home.”  

If you’re one of the many people who think heaven will be boring, think again. Well, when we get to heaven, we’ll be doing far more than sitting on clouds and strumming on harps. We’ll be worshipping and working. But more than anything we’ll be experiencing the eternal, uninterrupted presence of Jesus Christ, and all the joy and pleasure that comes with it. Stay with us now as Ron moves ahead in h...

Back in the seventies, a man named John wanted us to imagine there was no heaven. Today, we’ll see what a different John has to say. Well, contrary to the imagination of John Lennon, heaven is a real place. And according to the Apostle John, God will one day create a new heaven, along with a new Jerusalem. Ron gives us a glimpse, but only a glimpse, of this new heaven and new Jerusalem next. You’l...

And He who was seated on the throne said, “Behold I am making all things new.” You know, when we go to be with Jesus, everything will be new. Not just where we live, but who we are. We will have new, glorified bodies, a new awareness and understanding, new and greater intellectual capacity. And the best part is, we’ll enjoy all of this without pain, without regret, and without the possibility of s...

Have you ever wondered what heaven will be like? What it will look like, where it will be located? Today, Ron takes you to the largest description of heaven found anywhere in your Bible. It came to the Apostle John in a vision from Jesus Himself, and he wrote down what he saw in Revelation chapter twenty-one, verses one through five. Prepare yourself to get homesick for heaven, as Ron continues hi...

Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. When Jesus spoke those words recorded in John chapter fourteen, He was setting Himself apart from every other religious belief, and, every other so-called god on Earth. Coming your way next, Ron continues his teaching series, “Heaven: The Father’s House and My Eternal Home.”  

If you had twenty-four hours to live, what would you say to the people you love? What kind of conversation would you have? Something like that took place on the night before Jesus was crucified. He gathered His disciples together and shared a meal…and some rather telling conversation. And the things Jesus said weren’t limited to the men in the upper room. There are plenty of implications for you a...

Do people get a second chance at salvation  after  they die? Many people believe that, even if you don’t accept Christ in this life, you’ll get one more bite at the apple in the next one. It’s one of many controversial ideas that have sprung up over the years. Today, Ron explores of few of these beliefs, and tells you what the Bible has to say about them. Stay with us now as Ron continues his teac...

What does the Bible say about heaven? Maybe not as much as you’d like, but more than you might think. God hasn’t told us everything about heaven, but He has given us a few glimpses. As you’ll hear Ron tell it today, it’s a little bit like watching a baseball game through a hole in a wooden fence. You can’t see the whole picture, but you can see enough to pique your interest. Stay with us now as Ro...

In Revelation chapter three, Jesus has some strong words for the church at Laodicea. It has become dispassionate, distasteful, deceived, and dangerous. These are the earmarks of a lukewarm church. But as hopeless as that may sound, there is a remedy. Ron shares it with us today as he wraps us his teaching series, “Ready For His Return,” based on Revelation chapters 1-3.  

Some people like their coffee steaming hot. Others prefer an iced latte. But almost no one likes it somewhere in between. In Revelation chapter three, we come across a church that was lukewarm, neither hot nor cold. What did Jesus say to this body of believers, and what can we learn from His admonition? Answers and insight come your way next, as Ron moves ahead with his teaching series, “Ready For...

In John ten, twenty-seven, Jesus said “My sheep hear My voice. I know them and they follow Me.” In Revelation chapter three, Jesus praises the church at Philadelphia for its faithfulness.  One of the rewards for that faithfulness is a deeper, more intimate walk with Christ, one in which you can hear His voice better than you otherwise might. Today, Ron points to three other blessings that come whe...

It was a small church with little power or influence. Some would have called it insignificant. But Jesus paid them the highest of compliments. Of the seven churches to whom Jesus dictated letters in Revelation chapters two and three, the church at Philadelphia stands alone as the only one to receive no correction or criticism. What was it about this church that drew such high praise from Jesus. St...

In our vocation, in our relationships, and in our walk with Christ, experience very often leads to complacency. In Revelation chapter three, Jesus dictates a letter to the church at Sardis. Although the church had a good public reputation, the Lord knew most of its members had grown complacent. Sardis was a dead church, but as you’ll see today, the news wasn’t all bad. Stay with us now as Ron move...

It may be nice to have a good public image. But ultimately, you’re not defined by what people think you are, but by what God says you are. The New Testament church in Sardis had something of a good reputation. By all appearances, it was vibrant and alive. But Jesus saw through the facade, and in Revelation chapter three, He calls them a dead church. What did He mean by that proclamation? What are...
