Sun AM

Today we talk about how our hope is not just for this side of Heaven.

TODAY'S OUTLINE:  “Truth Hidden, or, the Blindness of the Human Heart, Part 9, Every Benefit of Grace, Fully Provided"The Blessed Truth Summarized: Every Spiritual Blessing In Christ Jesus is Ours!The Foundational Truth Proclaimed: Our Justification, the “Imputation” of Christ's Own Righteousness to UsThe Glory of It All — Our Reality: The Full and Completed Forgiveness of SinsThe Glorious Truth Defended: The Word Was Given and Must Be Proclaimed!…And then the rest — last time the Blessed Hope, Our Catching up into Heavenly Glory.

The reality of heaven gives us real hope in this difficult world. But what is heaven like right now? Where exactly do we go right after we die? Pastor Nichole examines more of what the Bible says about Heaven and what we as Christ-followers can do to help Fill Up Heaven during our time here on earth.

Our Outline Today: The Rapture of the Church Must Be Before the Tribulation! Part 2It is Our Calling To Be Glorified with Him in the HeavenliesBy God's Power We Expectantly Await the Blessed Hope

1-1-26 New Year's "Waiting for the Blessed Hope"Scripture Reading: Titus 2:1-15Sermon Text: Titus 2:13I. What is the blessed hope?II. How should Christians wait for the blessed hope?Rev. Ralph A. Pontier

What we know with certainty about the future changes everything about how we face the present. Dr. John Neufeld continues in Matthew 24, examining Jesus' warnings about false messiahs who will arise in the last days, performing signs to deceive many. Jesus assures His followers the true Savior will not appear in secret locations, but visibly across the heavens like lightning, returning in power and glory to gather His elect.The Best Is Ahead: Looking ahead, some of us are fearful. But for the believers who have put their confidence fully in Christ, we know with certainty that our best days are not behind us and certainly our best days are not the ones we are living now. Our best days lie in the future, when Christ will return to gather his elect. Join Dr. Neufeld for this 5 message series in the study of Matthew 24.

Preaching from Isaiah, David Howett explains how Bible prophecy is different from any other kind of writing, because it reveals God's unchanging plan from the beginning of the world. And Jesus fulfils these prophecies completely!Isaiah 46: 8 - 13 (NIV)“Remember this, keep it in mind,    take it to heart, you rebels.9 Remember the former things, those of long ago;    I am God, and there is no other;    I am God, and there is none like me.10 I make known the end from the beginning,    from ancient times, what is still to come.I say, ‘My purpose will stand,    and I will do all that I please.'11 From the east I summon a bird of prey;    from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose.What I have said, that I will bring about;    what I have planned, that I will do.12 Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted,    you who are now far from my righteousness.13 I am bringing my righteousness near,    it is not far away;    and my salvation will not be delayed.I will grant salvation to Zion,    my splendor to Israel.

In this stirring and deeply encouraging Advent message, Pastor Karl launches the new series The King Has Come with a powerful exploration of the first great gift Jesus brings: hope.Turning to Luke 2 and the quiet, largely forgotten figures of Simeon and Anna, Pastor Karl paints a vivid picture of two elderly saints who spent decades waiting in faithful obscurity—praying unanswered prayers, worshiping through silence, and serving without recognition. Yet the moment a 40-day-old baby was carried into the temple, their Spirit-illuminated eyes saw what the crowds missed: the long-promised Messiah, the Consolation of Israel, the Redemption of Jerusalem.Through their story, Pastor Karl reveals that biblical hope is not wishful thinking; it is the confident, unshakable expectation of future good rooted in the unchanging character and faithfulness of God. Hope grows in the hidden soil of daily faithfulness, thrives when God chooses to work in silence, and celebrates the tiny seed because it already trusts the coming harvest. Simeon and Anna never saw Jesus preach, heal, or rise from the dead—yet they held the infant King and departed in peace, because they knew who He was long before they saw what He would do.A tender yet convicting word for everyone who has waited a long time and is still waiting, prayed a long time and is still praying, and hoped a long time and is still hoping. In a season that can feel rushed and noisy, this message calls us to slow down, stay faithful, and train our eyes to recognize the presence of the King—even when He shows up wrapped in the ordinary, the small, and the seemingly insignificant.Because the King has come, hope is not dead. It is alive, resilient, and bubbling up in every heart that keeps showing up and keeps looking for Jesus. Essential listening for anyone who needs fresh hope 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

Revelation 1:1-8 ESV The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things that must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw. Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near. John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne, and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen. “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

Sunday, August 3, 2025 – Pastor Mike continues the study of the Assemblies of God 16 Fundamental Truths, focusing on Truth 13 – “The Blessed Hope.” The last four Tenets of the Assemblies' 16 Fundamentals all deal with future events yet to come and are the most exciting to discuss. Today, we’re talking about “The Blessed Hope,” which is the next major event on God’s prophetic timetable: the “Rapture of the Church.” The rapture is called the blessed hope, not because we are wishful that it will happen, but because it is a guaranteed promise based on the Bible’s words. The blessed hope is when Jesus returns in the clouds to take His Bride, the Church, back to His Father’s house in Heaven. That’s what we’ll explore in more detail. Worship and study with us, and you’ll be encouraged, knowing we can be confident in experiencing all that God has prepared. Watch until the very end, as Pastor Mike has a special announcement he shared with the congregation this morning regarding his future tenure at Center Point.

The midweek special comes from the Moriel Canada Conference of 2017 (Session 3). This special will run for 9 weeks ending with the Q&A session that finalized the conference. 

In a time of global uncertainty and growing fear, we are reminded that Christ is still Lord—and He is with us now. This message begins a new series on the Book of Revelation, focusing not on predictions, but on encouragement and trust in Jesus amidst turmoil. Just as John wrote to the early churches facing persecution and empire worship, we are called to remain faithful and grounded in God's eternal promises. The resurrection of Christ isn't just a past event—it's the foundation of our hope, our purpose, and our future. Join us as we fix our eyes on the One who was, who is, and who is to come.
