Podcasts about life eternal

Feb. 1's Sunday service livestream, bulletin/sermon notes/Life Group questions, the online Connection Card, and playlists of Sunday's music (Spotify and YouTube).

In this sobering conclusion to the "Kingdom Now" series on the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Karl closes Matthew 7:21–29 with Jesus' urgent call to authentic, obedient faith. He recaps the narrow gate—Jesus Himself as the exclusive way to the Father (John 10:9)—requiring self-denial and kingdom priority, a path few find because truth is non-negotiable. The terrifying warning follows: Not everyone who says "Lord, Lord" will enter the kingdom—only those who do the Father's will. Even miracle-workers may hear, "I never knew you; depart from me," underscoring that salvation demands an intimate, mutual relationship: truly knowing Jesus and being known by Him, not superficial confession or religious activity without heart surrender and obedience.Pastor Karl illustrates this with the parable of the wise and foolish builders: Everyone hears Jesus' words, but only doers build on the rock. Storms are certain—far beyond our strength—and they reveal the unseen foundation. Lives built on anything else crumble with great destruction. Hearing or studying the Word isn't enough; we must be doers (James 1:22) for transformed, fruitful lives. He shares the powerful story behind "I Have Decided to Follow Jesus," born from Nokseng's martyrdom in India, declaring unwavering commitment amid tragedy: "No turning back… though none go with me… the cross before me, the world behind me."The message ends with Jesus' astonishing authority as the Word incarnate and a solemn challenge: Will you follow—not with lip service, but with total devotion through the narrow gate? As the congregation is invited to stand and sing the hymn only if they can declare it personally, Pastor Karl urges genuine surrender, heart examination, and reaching out for prayer to confirm a true decision to follow Christ. A grace-filled, convicting call to move from profession to possession, building on the only foundation that endures the storm.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Abundant Life: Eternal Purpose: Ministry Partners (Part 1) Preached on 10/19/25  Pastor Damian Tibbs

In the cultural view, time is a scarcity. It is an asset that is a diminishing, that we are going to lose some day.  In this cultural view of time, time is running out. We have this sense of everything must produce something.  A view of productivity.  You are running out of time, so therefore you need to use your time well, and you need to stop wasting your time.

Series: Signs & GloryTitle: How can I know the way of Jesus?Subtitle: Scripture: John 14:1-14 NIVBottom Line: Because Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, we can trust His promises in the midst of our fears, follow His words, ways, and wisdom with confidence, see the Father clearly, and rely on Him to provide all we need for the mission.INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTSERMON OUTLINECONCLUSIONNOTESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDER DISCUSSION QUESTIONSMAIN REFERENCES USEDOpening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. INTRODUCTION“I'm sure that everyone reading this book has been touched by the death of a loved one. I have; by the mercy of God, both of my parents died at home in bed. My mother slipped away at night when I was asleep, but I was next to the bed, more than fifty years ago, when my father breathed his last. I watched death in front of my eyes, and in that moment I lost the person who meant more to me than any person on the face of the earth. When it happened, something stabbed my soul, causing me to say: “This is insane. This can't be real. He must merely be sleeping. O God, will he live again?” -R.C. SproulMoments like this leave us asking: Are we really prepared for what's ahead?His disciples faced a similar challenge 2,000 years ago, beginning with a turning point of cosmic proportions with the betrayal of Judas Iscariot.I submit that we should proceed as Jesus led his disciples to on the night of his arrest and the eve of his crucifixion.Bottom line: CONTEXTJesus's disciples are deeply troubled because they have just heard 3 things:One of them will betray Jesus,Jesus is about to leave them and go where they cannot go, and Peter will deny Jesus 3 times that night.On top of all of this, Jesus is still wanted for arrest and likely crucifixion for treason and blasphemy. If they are looking for him, they are likely looking for them as well. They're terrified.OUTLINE (w/ help from ChatGPT)Bottom Line: Because Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, we can trust His promises in the midst of our fears, follow His words, ways, and wisdom with confidence, see the Father clearly, and rely on Him to provide all we need for the mission.1. Jesus Calms Troubled Hearts (vv. 1–3)• Context: Jesus has announced His departure (13:33) and Peter's denial (13:38). The disciples are shaken.• Truth: “Let not your hearts be troubled.” The antidote to fear is faith.• Explanation:• Believe in God; believe also in Me → Jesus calls for the same trust we give to God.• In My Father's house are many rooms → heaven is real, personal, and prepared.• I will come again → the return of Christ guarantees our eternal presence with Him.• Application:• When anxiety rises, put your weight down on His promises.• We don't just long for a place (heaven) but a Person (Jesus).Illustration: A child afraid of the dark sleeps peacefully when she lies next to her parents bed because they are with her.2. Jesus Is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (vv. 4–7)• Thomas: “We don't know where you are going. How can we know the way?” (v. 5)• Jesus' Answer: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (v. 6)• Explanation:• The Way → He doesn't show the way; He is the way. The cross and resurrection open the road.• The Truth → Not one truth among many; the full reality of God revealed in Him.• The Life → Eternal life is only in Him (cf. John 11:25; 1 John 5:11–12).• Application:• In a culture that says “all paths lead to God,” Jesus insists: only one does.• Jesus is not just useful; He is essential.Illustration: GPS apps give different routes to the destination. Some take longer while others are easier. We won't all follow exactly the same way. But we do follow him his way rooted in his truth to true and lasting life.3. Jesus Reveals the Father (vv. 8–11)• Philip: “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” (v. 8)• Jesus' Reply: “Whoever has seen Me has seen the Father.” (v. 9)• Truth: Jesus is the full disclosure of God (cf. Col. 1:15; Heb. 1:3).• Application:• You don't have to wonder what God is like—look at Jesus.• If we're confused about God's character, we must return to Jesus' words and works.Illustration: Like a high-resolution picture bringing clarity where once it was blurry, Jesus brings the Father into perfect focus.4. Jesus Empowers His Followers (vv. 12–14)• Promise: “Whoever believes in Me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do.” (v. 12)• Explanation:• Not greater in quality but in extent—global reach through the Spirit.• Through prayer “in My name,” Jesus continues His work through us.• Application:• We are not powerless—we are prayerful participants in Jesus' mission.• Ask boldly in His name, aligning with His will.Illustration: A relay race—the baton of Jesus' mission is passed on, but with Spirit-powered expansion beyond what the disciples could imagine.Conclusion: Bringing It All Together• When your heart is troubled → Trust His promise (vv. 1–3).• When you wonder about the way → Follow Him as the only way (vv. 4–7).• When you want to know what God is like → Look to Jesus (vv. 8–11).• When you feel powerless → Pray in His name and live on His mission (vv. 12–14).Bottom Line: Because Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, we can trust His promises in the midst of our fears, follow His words, ways, and wisdom with confidence, see the Father clearly, and rely on Him to provide all we need for the mission.CONCLUSIONBottom Line: Because Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, we can trust His promises in the midst of our fears, follow His words, ways, and wisdom with confidence, see the Father clearly, and rely on Him to provide all we need for the mission.INVITATIONWhat about you? Peter puts it all in perspective in his first sermon:““Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭36‬-‭39‬ ‭NIV‬‬How do we respond? Answer 2 questions:Take out a card or piece of paper right now. Write down the answer to these questions: What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.Lord's Supper, 1 Cor 11:23-26 is good passage.Also, say something like, "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again." (past, present, and future)PrayNOTES“I'm sure that everyone reading this book has been touched by the death of a loved one. I have; by the mercy of God, both of my parents died at home in bed.

How do I get Eternal Life? | Eternal Life - Christ in You Series | Week 3 | Ps Chris Chipeio by Every Nation Dorado

If you are navigating the loss of a loved one, I truly believe you will be encouraged by Dan's openness.How do you understand "life eternal"?When Julia passed, Dan learned a lot about the importance of life insurance, and now wants to educate and equip others so they are more prepared.You can schedule a time to talk with him here:https://calendly.com/jdanielcoe17~Paul creates this as part of his full-time volunteer ministry.If you appreciate what God is doing through this podcast, you can help keep it going through financial support.

What is Eternal Life? | Eternal Life Series | Week 1| Ps Chris Chipeio by Every Nation Dorado

Jesus Christ alone has the power and authority to give us life eternal. It cost the death and suffering of Christ to pay our sin debt. Once you have asked God to forgive your sin and by faith trusted Christ alone for your soul's salvation, nothing else is needed. Everlasting life is an everlasting discovery of God. Because we know eternal life, we are to be witnesses of eternal life.

Day 9 – Life Eternal O Lord, infant Jesus, bring us to live eternal with You! Jesus, your nativity was not without purpose. Your purpose was to bring us to You. We pray that you will bring us to Life Eternal with you this Christmas. The post A Christmas Novena – Day 9 – Discerning Hearts Podcast appeared first on Discerning Hearts Catholic Podcasts.

Verse by verse study through the book of John Chapter Seventeen and Verse Three

Join us this Sunday as we explore the final lines of the Apostles' Creed: “the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.” How does God's relational love transform these ancient words into a living invitation for us? What if forgiveness is more than wiping the slate clean—what if it's an invitation to healing and liberation? How does affirming the resurrection of the body shape how we view our physical lives and the sacredness of creation? And what if life everlasting is not just about the future, but an invitation to live fully in the present? How might these beliefs shape the way we live and love in our world right now?

Is it a gift or a curse to be immune to death, to be chosen to live forever? An eternal life, unable to die, to be killed, to live on in perpetuity while all around you age and die...When Sergeant Rob Deakin is mortally wounded during the First World War, he is destined to become just another nameless casualty of a terrible conflict.However, a chance encounter with a mysterious stranger will change the course of Rob's life forever… Not only has he been healed, but he cannot die, and he will never age.

Most people will slowly save money throughout their careers for the day when they can't work anymore. Retirement is relatively new in human history but it has become a staple in the West. Workers will make financial sacrifices today to save and hopefully secure investment income later in life. Similarly, God's word teaches us that the worldly sacrifices we make today will produce an eternal reward later. Find the handout here.

I am Just Joe No Title, by the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit, preaching about Christians receiving what they pray for, and living with our Lord and Savior for eternity. 

Sermon notes

Sermon notes

A thought experiment on what life eternal could really mean.“This is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man” (Moses 1:39)“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17“Wherefore, do the things which I have told you I have seen that your Lord and your Redeemer should do; for, for this cause have they been shown unto me, that ye might know the gate by which ye should enter. For the gate by which ye should enter is repentance and baptism by water; and then cometh a remission of your sins by fire and by the Holy Ghost.“And then are ye in this strait and narrow path which leads to eternal life; yea, ye have entered in by the gate; ye have done according to the commandments of the Father and the Son; and ye have received the Holy Ghost, which witnesses of the Father and the Son, unto the fulfilling of the promise which he hath made, that if ye entered in by the way ye should receive” (2 Nephi 31:17–18).Am I “relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save”? (2 Nephi 31:19)“Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.” (2 Nephi 31:20)2 Nephi 31:21: “And now, behold, my beloved brethren, this is the way; and there is none other way nor name given under heaven whereby man can be saved in the kingdom of God. And now, behold, this is the doctrine of Christ, and the only and true doctrine of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, which is one God, without end. Amen.”Matthew 19:16, Mark 10:17, Luke 18:18Luke 10:25“And he [Jesus] said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.” (Luke 18:27) You found me!

In this last message of our Eternal Hope series, Pastor Zach reminds us of God's perfect plan for the future.

Today we use a Spanish lesson (the difference between saber and conocer) to better understand "Life Eternal."

1 John 1:1-4 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the Word of life— 2 the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us— 3 that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. 4 And we are writing these things so that our joy may be complete. Key Words: Word, Life, Manifest, Son, Father, Fellowship, Joy Keystone Verse: The life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us.
