How is this not a checkmate?
Sort:
There's 3 ways to get out of a check
1. Capture (nothing can capture the rook here)
2. Move the king (king can't move)
3. Block (your bishop can block the check)
Thank you so much everyone! I forgot that the bishop can block the check, but I see it now.

Yep, the bishop is your savior but if he takes it with the rook, I believe your cooked (your mated).
Yes 
I can see now that there was one final step left before checkmate, thanks!
No it isn’t if the rook takes the bishop then the knight on c6 will capture your rook
