Lessons Of The Fig Tree 03/22/2026

The Confusing Entrance of the King 03/15/2026

The Confusing Entrance of the King Jesus’ anger was about the location rather than the activity itself. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/40494360

Glory Through Suffering and Service 03/08/2026

Glory Through Suffering and Service Honor and recognition will come to believers who follow Jesus’ example of sacrificial service. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/40362320

Don't Spoil It! 03/01/2026

Don't Spoil It! Jesus has made it clear He is going to reward His followers who faithfully serve Him in this life because it is His right and it pleases Him to do so. Jesus is generous. Amazingly, He will be generous in the rewards with which He will reward His faithful in the Messianic Kingdom (i.e. hundredfold). /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/40276360

Being Rich and Entering Kingdom Life Now 02/22/2026

Being Rich and Entering Kingdom Life Now The disciples assume wealth is a sign of God’s blessing - divine affirmation a person is living in the kingdom now. Jesus warns it is impossible for a rich person to enter kingdom life. The disciples ask, “Who then can be saved?” /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/40195835

Jesus Challenged on Marriage 02/15/2026

Jesus Challenged on Marriage Jesus responds that God’s will is that the man and woman whom He joins in the "one flesh" union of marriage be not separated by man. Jesus’ answer makes clear that God’s original design for marriage did not include divorce. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/40120075

The Goal is to Win! 02/01/2026

The Goal is to Win! The two or more gathered are agreeing on the sin of the brother and bringing a request to God in relation to that. They can be confident that the very presence and authority of Jesus is with them as they “bind and loose” the various issues, attitudes and actions that would arise in the early church. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39957160

Life In The Church 01/25/2026

Life In The Church The Apostle Paul explicitly forbids his readers from paying attention to any Pseudepigraphal myths. Therefore neither Jesus nor the Apostles, even if they were aware of them, would ever use the Valley of Hinnom as a metaphor for hell even if there was an example of that equivalence in these fantasies. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39872485

Faith and Taxes 01/18/2026

Faith and Taxes Though Jesus, as the Son of the God of the Temple is “free” (exempt), He pays the Temple tax anyway for Himself and Peter to avoid giving offense. Some things are just not worth hassling over. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39779895

A Glimpse of the Messianic Kingdom 01/11/2026

A Glimpse of the Messianic Kingdom The Transfiguration makes clear that the rejection, murder and resurrection of Jesus does not mark the cancelation of the promised earthly Messianic Kingdom (vss.10-11). The Transfiguration was a glimpse of the coming Kingdom. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39693875

Emmanuel 12/21/2025

Emmanuel God’s Desire All Along /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39488370

Who's Coming With? 12/14/2025

Who's Coming With? It is far better to follow me to Jerusalem even if it costs you your life and wealth because the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done. Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39403080

Not Just Another Prophet 12/07/2025

Not Just Another Prophet Who do the crowds think Jesus Is? Who do the disciples think Jesus is? /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39317195

Never Read A Bible Verse 11/30/2025

Never Read A Bible Verse Jesus warns His disciples to not fall prey to the false teachings of the Scribes and Pharisees. You need to watch and beware of those who twist the scriptures! /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39214080

Jesus Is the Messiah of the Jews 11/23/2025

Jesus Is the Messiah of the Jews Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah promised to the Jewish nation of Israel. We gentile believers are eternally grateful Yahweh included us in the spiritual blessings of His New Covenant with Israel. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39145255

Clean Hands, Filthy Hearts 11/16/2025

Clean Hands, Filthy Hearts The Scribes and Pharisees use the tradition of the elders to justify breaking Yahweh’s command to honor fathers and mothers. In addition, they horribly dishonor Yahweh by using Him as the reason for their transgression when, in fact, they are serving themselves. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/39055660

Lessons For The Learners 11/09/2025

Lessons For The Learners Jesus will train those who follow him, despite their limited understanding and their doubts. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38973300

Jesus: Contempt and Confusion 11/02/2025

Jesus: Contempt and Confusion They were the evidence given when John the Baptizer doubted. They forced the Pharisees to accept or reject his claims. So, how would his “home crowd” respond? How will Herod, who has only heard of him, respond? /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38885730

Training The Disciples 10/26/2025

Training The Disciples Jesus has been rejected by the nation of Israel. His offer of the Messianic Kingdom has been withdrawn from that generation. Through the following parables Jesus reveals the nature of the interim Kingdom. He is preparing His disciples for their role in interim Kingdom. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38785655

No More Signs But One 10/19/2025

No More Signs But One The sign of Jonah is the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth after three days in the grave! The resurrection of Jesus is the ultimate sign and proof that Jesus is the promised Messiah-King. But as Matthew will report, even the ultimate sign of the resurrection of Jesus will be rejected by the scribes and Pharisees. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38637545

Pharisees Plot Jesus' Murder 10/12/2025

Pharisees Plot Jesus' Murder Matthew interprets Jesus’ withdrawal as the fulfillment of Isaiah 42:1-4 which emphasizes that Messiah’s ministry will be Holy Spirit empowered, non-combative, expanded to include Gentiles and ultimately successful. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38556295

Rejected! 10/05/2025

Rejected! Jesus shifts from persuading the nation to liberating individuals from the bondage of Pharisaical Judaism in order that they may truly know God and experience His life of soul-rest (11:27-30). /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38475610

Cognitive Dissonance 09/28/2025

Cognitive Dissonance The campaign may have taken well over a year as the goal was to reach every town and village in all Israel. The Pharisees have begun a counter-campaign likely utilizing the network of synagogues to spread their lie. The lie: Jesus is empowered by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, not the Holy Spirit of Yahweh. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38388245

The Big Push 09/21/2025

The Big Push Everything between 10:5 through 11:1 pertains to this Big Push to evangelize all the towns and villages of Israel. It is likely this campaign lasted many months or more, possibly a year. Jesus will go to those towns/villages the disciples discover are favorable to Him. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38301325

Those Who Believed, Received 09/14/2025

Those Who Believed, Received To repent means "to change one’s mind". About what does Jesus call the Jews to repent? Jesus calls His fellow Jews to change their minds about whom they are following. He calls them to follow the new wine of His teachings and to turn away from the old wine of the scribes and Pharisees. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38231775

New Wine 08/31/2025

New Wine Jesus calls His fellow Jews to change their minds about whom they are following. He calls them to follow the new wine of His teachings and to turn away from the old wine of the scribes and Pharisees. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/38036990

What Sort of Man Is This? 08/24/2025

What Sort of Man Is This? Jesus proved He has authority to forgive a person’s sins. Sin includes all the ways we fail to love and honor God, our fellow man and all the ways we violate God’s revealed will. Our sin separates us from God. Forgiveness of our sins restores us to God. Do you need forgiveness? /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/37941550

Radical Mission - Radical Commitment 08/17/2025

Radical Mission - Radical Commitment Scribes were highly educated, highly trained in reading, writing, record keeping and in copying the Scriptures. They were considered experts in the Law (Torah). The scribe expressed his desire to join Jesus on this trip across the Lake. /episode/index/show/gccramona/id/37858650
