In this stirring and deeply encouraging Advent message, Pastor Karl continues the series The King Has Come with a raw and life-giving exploration of the second great gift Jesus brings: peace.Turning to the familiar yet profound scene in Luke 2:8–20, Pastor Karl invites us into the midnight terror of ordinary shepherds—suddenly confronted by the blinding glory of God—and shows how the very first words from heaven that night were not “Merry Christmas,” but “Fear not.” That first Christmas did not begin with sentimental calm; it began with paralyzing, mega-fear. And right there, in the middle of stacked-on-stacked fear, the angel announced good news of great joy: a Savior has been born who is Christ the Lord, the Prince of Peace.With pastoral tenderness and unflinching honesty, Pastor Karl unmasks fear as the mortal enemy of peace—how it magnifies threats, shrinks our view of God, and paints our future in colors darker than God ever intended. Yet the gospel is stronger: peace is not the absence of trouble but the presence of a Person. Peace is not something Jesus gives; peace is who Jesus is—and He gives Himself.Through the shepherds' journey from terror to testimony, we're given clear, scriptural paths out of fear and into the unshakable peace of Christ: speaking God's truth over fear's lies, refusing to agree with the spirit of fear, drawing near to Jesus through spiritual disciplines, and taking bold steps of obedience that move us against comfort and toward surrender.This is a word for everyone whose heart has been ruled by anxiety, worst-case scenarios, or the quiet fears that steal joy—especially in this season. A tender yet urgent call to stop trusting the unknown future to our own control and start trusting it to the known God who entered our fear as a baby in a manger.Because the King has come, fear does not get the final word. Peace does. And when the Prince of Peace takes over a life, what spills out is no longer fear—but praise, testimony, and unshakable confidence in the goodness of God.Essential listening for anyone who longs to trade fear for the peace that passes all understanding this Christmas.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Equipped: Buckle Up, The Belt of Truth w/Darren Tyler

STANDING CLOTHES (PART 2) | PASTOR MARK BOER | NOVEMBER 9, 2025 — You cannot stand strong wearing the wrong clothes. The armor of God is more than protection; it is a way of living with revelation and understanding. The belt of truth holds all things together. The enemy thrives on confusion, but truth is what anchors us. Truth is not relative or personal; it is absolute. What difference would it make in your life if you built everything on truth today?

The Belt of Truth - Battle Ready - Bryan Mowrey - (10/26/25) by Jubilee Church

Ephesians 6:10-20

The Belt of Truth Series: Suited Up - The Armor of God (Week 2 of 7) Scripture: Ephesians 6:14a Summary In spiritual warfare, truth is the foundation that holds everything else together. Just as a Roman soldier's belt held his armor in place and carried his weapons, the belt of truth is our first line of defense against the enemy's attacks. Without it, every other piece of armor becomes ineffective. This message explores how to defend yourself against Satan's lies by knowing, believing, speaking, and living God's truth. Key Points: 1. Truth Is Foundational—Without It, Everything Else Fails The belt wasn't decorative; it was functional. It held the soldier's armor in place and made him battle-ready. Similarly, every other piece of spiritual armor depends on truth. You must both know biblical truth and live with integrity. Building your life on anything other than the gospel truth—whether performance, others' opinions, or circumstances—creates instability in every area of your spiritual life. 2. Our Enemy Is the Father of Lies—He Attacks With Deception Satan's primary weapon isn't force but deception. Jesus called him "the father of lies" (John 8:44). We explored the specific lies Satan tells today about God's character, our identity in Christ, the nature of sin, and even spiritual warfare itself. His most dangerous lies contain just enough truth to seem believable, which is why knowing Scripture is essential for identifying deception. The lies covered include: Lies about God (distorting His holiness, grace, authority, and sovereignty) Lies about yourself (false identity apart from Christ) Lies about sin (redefining it, excusing it, minimizing it) Satan's ultimate lie (that spiritual warfare isn't real) 3. We Must Actively Pursue and Practice Truth "Having girded your waist with truth" is an active verb. You must intentionally put on truth and keep it fastened. This means four things: Know the truth - Regular, consistent study of God's Word Believe the truth - Trust God's Word over your feelings and circumstances (When guilt attacks, believe Romans 8:1. When life feels chaotic, believe Romans 8:28. When you feel inadequate, believe 2 Corinthians 5:21) Speak the truth - Verbally declare God's truth when lies come, just as Jesus did in the wilderness Live the truth - Walk in integrity with no hidden sin or secret compromise The Counterfeit Money Illustration: Treasury agents aren't trained by studying thousands of counterfeits—they study genuine currency so thoroughly that when a fake appears, they recognize it immediately. The same is true with truth. When you're saturated in Scripture and walking in integrity, the enemy's lies become obvious. The Bottom Line: Truth is the foundation of spiritual protection. When you know it, believe it, speak it, and live it—you're protected. The enemy's lies can't penetrate, his schemes can't deceive you, and you can stand firm in any battle. Next in Series: Week 3 - "The Breastplate of Righteousness" (Ephesians 6:14b) How righteous living protects your heart from enemy attacks.

Where do we find absolute truth? We find truth in the Bible.  What God says is true, and it is true absolutely.  There is no wavering in God's truth.  Truth does not change according to polling data or by decisions handed down by Congress or the Supreme Court.  Why?  It is God's truth.  Truth is what God says.Main Points:1. We don't usually think of a belt as a piece of armor, but the belt was important because the breastplate was tied into it.  The belt even held the sword and the helmet when they were not in use.  It was the first piece of armor that was installed.2. The Apostle Paul gives us this image:  we should tie up all the loose things in our lives with the belt of God's truth.  If we are going to stand when attacked, we must have a firm grip on spiritual truth.3. Studies conducted by the Barna organization showed that only 22% of Americans believe in absolute truth.  It is no wonder so many people lose more spiritual battles than they win.  It's no wonder they get tripped up in Satan's schemes.Today's Scripture Verses:Ephesians 6:14 - “Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist.”John 18:37b-38 - "Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.”  “What is truth?” retorted Pilate. John 8:32 - “you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

Many people believe our spiritual battle is a conflict of power. But it's actually a battle for the truth. In this message from Ephesians 6, Pastor Lutzer makes three statements about the nature of God's truth. Satan's forces constantly work to convince us our ways are better than God's and to keep us from His Word. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/172/29

The verses before us speak about spiritual warfare. They remind us that we are in the fight of our lives. Against a relentless, powerful enemy. We are engaged in battle with a spiritual being who is intent on our destruction. We are fighting against an enemy who hates our God, and who hates us too. He wants to devour our families, destroy our testimonies, devastate our church, and discredit our God. But, this enemy of whom I speak is not all-powerful. The God we serve is, 1 John 4:4.

In Ephesians 6:14, Paul urges us to stand firm with the belt of truth buckled around our waist. But what does it mean to live grounded in truth?In this week's episode, Angie and Susie explore how truth isn't just about facts. It's about believing the stabilizing, foundational reality that God loves us, accepts us, and equips us. Join us as we unpack how truth holds everything else in place, helping us stand strong in the battles we face. Ephesians 6:14a (NIV)Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, Steady On Study the Bible. Transform Your Life. Susie Crosby

“Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness.” (Ephesians 6:14 NLT) In his description of the armor of God in Ephesians 6, the apostle Paul doesn’t start with high-profile objects like the sword or the shield. Instead, he begins his list by instructing believers to put on “the belt of truth” (NLT). To understand the importance of this piece of armor, you need to know a little about the uniforms of Roman soldiers in Paul’s day. Roman soldiers didn’t wear pants like we do today. They wore togas on the battlefield. To move quickly in battle, they would pull their togas above their knees and tighten their belts to keep the togas in place. That gave them the freedom of movement they needed. The belt was essential to the rest of the armor. The breastplate was attached to it, as was the sheath for the sword. If your belt fell off, your breastplate would fall off, and your toga would come loose. You could have the sharpest sword in the legion and still be ineffective in battle if you were tripping over your own toga and trying to keep your breastplate and sheath in place. So, the belt was important. That’s why Paul put it at the top of the list. In the armor of God, His truth anchors our faith. In fact, it frames our whole spiritual battle. Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me” (John 14:6 NLT). Jesus is the truth. Our enemy the devil, on the other hand, “has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44 NLT). The problem is, he’s a very skilled liar. Every battle tactic he uses is built on a lie—almost always a believable one. With every temptation he puts in our path, he says, “Jesus really isn’t the only way to get what you’re looking for. Here’s something better.” If we’re to withstand his attacks, we must surround ourselves with the truth. We need to be grounded in God’s Word. We need to “be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15 NLT). We need to recognize the devil’s lies and call them out for the counterfeits they are. When we put on the belt of truth, “We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth” (Ephesians 4:14 NLT). The truth of God’s Word anchors every other piece of spiritual armor. The more securely you wrap yourself with it—by memorizing it, understanding it, and applying it to your daily life—the more skilled you’ll be in spiritual battle. And the more dangerous you’ll be to your spiritual enemy. Reflection question: What are some dangerous lies the devil tries to convince people to believe?
