Jesus Is Greater Than Anything

By Dr. Ron Jones

The list of Paul’s friends and ministry companions in Colossians 4 is a reminder that Jesus is greater than. For example, He is greater than ethnic tensions, evidenced by the Jews and Gentiles that were part of Paul’s ministry team. 

 

Jesus is greater than the failures of your past. Just ask Onesimus, the runaway slave, and John Mark who once quit the ministry. Jesus is also greater than the pleasures of this life. Consider Demas who deserted Paul having loved this present world. 

 

Finally, Jesus is greater than the sufferings you experience as one of His disciples. “Remember my chains,” Paul said as he closed his letter to the Colossians. Jesus is greater than anything you are presently facing.

“Every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.”

I have been listening to Something Good Radio for several weeks. I gain new insights weekly that I can apply to my life. After a recent broadcast, I got down on my knees, confessed my sins, repented, and asked Jesus to be part of my life. Thanks to God's grace and mercy, you showed me His love. I am a new Christian because of your efforts.

Thank you so much for preaching the unchanging and powerful word of God every day on the airwaves. My wife and I are originally from India, and now live in Melbourne, Australia. . . . We love to listen to you breaking the Bread of Life. Keep upholding the word of truth in an increasingly dark and dying world.

Something Good happened to me this morning. I listened to Ron's broadcast from last week and feel a renewed sense of hope and encouragement! It was exactly what I needed to hear―to be reminded that our God of yesterday, today and tomorrow will answer my prayers.

Ron's messages on Something Good Radio have brought me back to God and have led me to rededicate my life to Him.

I just want to take this moment to thank the Lord for what He is doing through you. ... We are thoroughly blessed by the wonderful expository preaching! There is so much more I could say, but I will end here. Thank you. my dear brother, so much.
