Years before President Nelson gave his talk on "Peacemakers," the word "Peace" had already been hijacked. Peace in the scriptures is not what you think it is. Peace is "Shalom" which is comparable to the Egyptian concept of "Ma'at." That is, order, truth, justice, and harmony. As Jesus is described in the New Testament and Book of Mormon, it is "Grace And Truth." Both are necessary. Without both, we end up with Untethered Empathy and Malevolent Compassion.

Do not just look at life's challenges; see them as opportunities to reflect God's grace and truth in action.
Your purpose is not just to survive, but to thrive by living in the truth and grace that God has given you.

In this compelling episode, Pastor Karl dives into Romans 14, exploring what he calls "Applied Christianity." This chapter challenges both seasoned and new believers to navigate the balance between personal freedom in Christ and public restraint for the sake of others. Pastor Karl unpacks the concept of spiritual maturity, emphasizing private liberty and public restriction as biblical principles rooted in love. He addresses the tension between those strong in faith, who live in the freedom of grace, and those weak in faith, who adhere to stricter rules, using the historical context of meat sacrificed to idols to illustrate disputable matters. Through practical examples like alcohol, Halloween, and homeschooling, Pastor Karl highlights how non-essential issues should not divide the church. He introduces the "law of love," urging listeners to prioritize others' faith over personal freedoms, and explains the Bema Seat judgment, where Christians are rewarded for their sacrifices, not judged for salvation. Join Pastor Karl for a thought-provoking discussion on living out faith with grace, love, and unity.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

Today, we're discussing the recent passing of Pope Francis. As a Protestant, I don't hold to Catholic doctrine, and I've had some serious theological issues with the papacy—but that doesn't mean I won't stop to reflect when someone steps into eternity.In this episode, I'm praying for Pope Francis' soul and hoping he had a deathbed conversion—because no one is beyond God's reach. I also hope Catholics choose a biblical pope next time, not one more interested in pleasing the world than honoring the Word.We'll talk about the things he did right—his care for the poor and moments of humility. But we'll also look at the dangerous things he got wrong:Promoting open borders that have devastated countries and erased traditionSaying all religions worship the same God (they don't)Claiming the human heart is good (the Bible says it's deceitful above all things)Ignoring original sin and the fallen nature of manThis is a respectful but honest take on a figure who meant a lot to many—but who, like all of us, needed Christ above all.--https://noblegoldinvestments.com/
What does it truly mean to be "born again"? In this powerful opening to the "Conversations" series, we explore the fascinating late-night dialogue between Jesus and Nicodemus – a respected religious leader who secretly sought answers about spiritual life. The encounter begins with Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Jewish ruling council, approaching Jesus under cover of darkness. Despite his extensive religious knowledge and exemplary life, Jesus immediately challenges him with a revolutionary statement: "Unless someone is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." This perplexing declaration launches an extraordinary conversation about spiritual transformation.Through this dialogue, we discover that being born again isn't about religious performance or moral improvement – it's about a supernatural work of God's Spirit that transforms us from within. Jesus skillfully uses illustrations like the wind and the bronze serpent in the wilderness to help Nicodemus grasp this radical concept. The conversation culminates in the most famous verse in Scripture, John 3:16, revealing God's heart to save rather than condemn.What makes this exchange so powerful is how Jesus balances unwavering truth with genuine grace. He doesn't compromise his message but presents it in a way that invites rather than alienates. This same approach – conversations filled with both grace and truth – is what can transform lives around us today.As we prepare for Easter, who might God be calling you to have a life-changing conversation with? Like Nicodemus, who eventually moved from curious seeker to committed follower, the people in your life might be just one conversation away from a transformed life through faith in Christ.
Are you headed where you need to go? The Bible teaches: “There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death” (Proverbs 14:12). In other words, you can be absolutely convinced you're on the right road and still end up in the wrong place. There are many different voices in our world trying to convince us to take different paths. But there's only one voice that leads us down the true path of life, and that's the voice of Jesus. Jesus defeated the grave so He could give us access to life beyond it. The resurrection of Jesus isn't just a day in history; it's the only way to find real, meaningful, and everlasting life.

1 Corinthians 5 emphasizes the importance for spiritual leaders to tackle sin within the church by balancing grace and truth. It teaches that church discipline should not be viewed as punishment, but a way to help individuals return to a right relationship with God, highlighting the necessity of addressing unrepented sin with love. Additionally, we will learn steps on how to approach sin in the lives of those we have relationships with.
The God who weeps is also the God who resurrects. Pastor Jared Herd explores how Jesus brings both grace and truth to our pain, calling us to life even in our darkest moments.

Grace and Truth came through Jesus. Grace without Truth or Truth without Grace is toxic. Watch or listen as Pastor Bill teaches how we were most likely raised to lean toward either Grace or Truth. While either is good, one without the other is toxic in our relationship with the Lord and others. We must have a full measure of Grace and a full measure of Truth to have a right relationship with God and others.

Grace and Truth and Pride 1 by Emmaus Church CLT
Grace and Truth and Pride 2 by Emmaus Church CLT
John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. Yesterday, we considered the amazing reality that the Word of God became flesh. First, let's be encouraged by the reality that Jesus is still full of grace and truth. He never changes. He is the same forever. If Jesus is full of grace, then God is full of grace. In Christ, we see the glory of God, full of grace. Isn't it encouraging to know that God is a God of grace? If Jesus is full of grace, then He has grace to spare, grace to give. Grace overflows. Second, let's consider that He's full of grace. Think of grace as the power of God to do what God requires. God's grace isn't blanket forgiveness or just positional righteousness, nor is it that God sets aside the Law or the righteous requirements of the Law. Quite the contrary, grace upholds or fulfills the law at the deepest level because it empowers the recipient of grace to not only love righteousness but to do it—in the power of the Spirit—for the glory of God. God the Father said of Jesus, “You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness” (Heb. 1:9). We learn in Heb. 2:9 that Jesus received grace from God to taste death for us all. What was the grace He received? It was the power to do what God required of Him as our high priest and the propitiator for our sins. He is full of grace. He could expend that power to fulfill God's just requirements and still have infinitely more grace to give to us so we might believe in Him and live to love with Him, which God commands (1 John 3:23). We can live to love with Jesus because He is full of grace, the power to love both God and man. Third, let's consider that Jesus is full of truth. He's not full of a truth. He is full of THE Truth. Later John recorded Jesus saying, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6), and “If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free” (John 8:31-32). It helps me to think of truth in this way: Truth is what God does, says, and sees through Jesus Christ. It's not a feeling, it's not a perception, and it's not one's personal perspective. Jesus is full of reality. If we want to see the truth about God and everything that is happening in the world, we should look at Jesus. Truth is what He's doing. Therefore, truth is what He sees happening. Since He is writing His story, His narrative is the only thing that matters. We can't rewrite the narrative to fit what we feel, think, or would like for reality to be. There's no such thing as “my reality.” There's only one reality, and it's the truth in Jesus Christ. Truth is what He is, and He's full of it—full of what the Father is doing and saying. We, therefore, have something secure to base our lives on—the truth of God revealed in Jesus Christ, the living Word of God. If Jesus is full of grace and truth and He lives in us, then we have that fullness of grace and truth residing in our lives. When God gave us the Holy Spirit, He didn't give us parts of Jesus or only certain aspects of Jesus. Jesus became our fullness. We are complete in Him (Col. 2:10), lacking nothing. His grace and truth look like love because God is love. So as we live today to love with Jesus, our lives should be filled with grace and truth. I invite you to become a partner in our ministry. Would you pray about becoming a regular supporter of Elijah Ministries and the Live to Love with Jesus ministry? I hope you will receive the joy and benefit of “giving it forward,” so others may be encouraged to turn their hearts to God and live to love with Jesus.

Message Pastor JasonOur world thrives on division—political, social, religious. Lines are drawn, sides are chosen, and outrage becomes the loudest voice.

Instead, He crossed the lines with love.We explore 1 John 2:1-6 and what it truly means to follow Jesus in a culture addicted to outrage. How do we live like Christ in a world that demands we take sides?
