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

In this sobering and soul-searching message, Pastor Karl dives deep into Matthew 5:17–48, where Jesus declares that He came not to abolish the Law but to fulfill it—and then raises the bar of righteousness far beyond anything the scribes and Pharisees ever imagined.Through six piercing examples—anger that murders the heart, lust that commits adultery in the mind, casual divorce, manipulative oaths, retaliation, and hatred disguised as justice—Jesus exposes the truth we all try to avoid: outward obedience is never enough. God judges the heart. Every single one of us stands guilty before His perfect standard.Yet the bad news is meant to drive us to the best news. Pastor Karl powerfully unpacks how Jesus' command in verse 48—“You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect”—is not a cruel impossible demand, but the very reason the Son of God came. We cannot achieve the righteousness God requires, so God freely gives it to us through faith in Christ. Jesus took our unrighteousness and imputes His perfect righteousness to all who repent and trust Him.A hard-hitting, heart-exposing sermon that leaves no room for self-righteousness, but ends with the liberating joy of the gospel: guilty sinners can be clothed in the very righteousness of God and stand before Him as if we had never sinned.

In this honest and weighty message kicking off the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Karl walks through the Beatitudes—the nine “blessed are” statements that reveal the heart attitudes Jesus demands of every true disciple. From spiritual poverty and mourning over sin to meekness, insatiable hunger for righteousness, mercy, purity of heart, peacemaking, and even rejoicing in persecution, these aren't optional extras; they're the non-negotiable “be-attitudes” that must mark every citizen of God's kingdom.When these attitudes shape us, we naturally become the salt of the earth and the light of the world—distinct from culture, preserving what is decaying, and shining so brightly that others see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven. A convicting reminder that following Jesus was never meant to look like the world around us.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

Ephesians 2:10

Jim Osman examines four Reformation gospel truths essential for understanding God's glorious grace in Ephesians 2:1-10. These biblical truths expose the fundamental divide between Protestant and Catholic theology. First, man is spiritually dead in trespasses and sins, enslaved to the world, Satan, and fleshly lusts, unable to please God or work toward salvation. Second, God demonstrates His rich mercy by making spiritually dead sinners alive in Christ through sovereign grace. Third, salvation comes by grace alone through faith alone, not by works, leaving no room for human boasting. Fourth, good works follow salvation as evidence, not as a means of earning favor with God. ★ Support this podcast ★

Ephesians 2: 8-10 Salvation by Grace by MVBC

Dr. Bern Zumpano continues the series on defending the Christian faith against cults by analyzing Mormonism. Previously, core doctrines—regarding God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit—were examined. In this session, the focus shifts to three additional doctrines: Original Sin, Salvation, and Atonement, concluding with the claim of biblical corruption put forth by the Mormon Church. Original Sin Mormonism teaches that Adam's sin was a necessary and beneficial part of God's plan. Dr. Bern Zumpano rejects this, referencing Romans 5 to argue that sin brought condemnation and death, not blessing. Genesis 1 establishes that God's covenant with humanity was already fulfilled before the fall, undermining the Mormon claim that Adam's sin was required. Salvation by Works The Mormon doctrine emphasizes obedience to church rituals for salvation. Dr. Bern Zumpano counters this with Ephesians 2:8–9, affirming that salvation comes by grace through faith—not by human effort or institutional compliance. Salvation is found in Jesus Christ alone, not any organization. Atonement Mormon teaching suggests that Christ's atonement benefits all people, regardless of belief, and needs to be supplemented by church rites. Dr. Bern Zumpano refutes this, citing John 3:36, 1 John 5:11–12, and Hebrews 9–10, which affirm that eternal life comes only through personal faith in Christ and the sufficiency of His sacrificial work. Claims that human actions contribute to atonement undermine the “finished” work of the cross and dishonor the Spirit of grace. Corruption of the Bible The Mormon Church asserts that the Bible has been corrupted, missing “plain and precious parts,” and is incomplete. Dr. Bern Zumpano rebuts this with scriptural affirmations of the Bible's sufficiency, permanence, and authority—citing John 17:17 (“Thy word is truth”), 2 Peter 1:21 (“living and abiding word of God”), and Ephesians 2:8–9 as a succinct statement of the complete gospel. Conclusion: Through seven core doctrines—three previously covered and four in this session—Dr. Bern Zumpano demonstrates, using Scripture, that Mormon teachings diverge fundamentally from biblical truth. He emphasizes that false doctrine equates to another gospel, warns of spiritual deception, and underscores the urgency of defending the faith with truth rooted in God's Word alone. The session concludes with a call to continue in the next segment to further uphold biblical integrity.

Salvation by Grace Alone

Pastor Jim explores the story of Naaman in 2 Kings 5, highlighting how God's mercy extends to even those perceived as outsiders or enemies. Through the humility of a young servant girl and Naaman's eventual surrender, we see that salvation comes not through power, wealth, or status, but through simple, obedient faith. Jim challenges listeners to lay down self-reliance and pride, receive God's free gift of grace, and become conduits of mercy, even toward those we consider enemies.

What is your world view? How do you interpret and make sense of how the world operates? How do you look at life and circumstances that come your way? We all have one – a perspective about the world – a world view. But what is the world view of the Bible believing Christian? How does a vital connection with the God of heaven influence our assessment of and interaction with the world around us?

In this sermon, Jim Osman explores the effectual call of God and its role in the salvation of sinners. Drawing from 2 Peter 1:3-4, he explains how salvation is not merely a result of hearing the gospel but of being irresistibly drawn by the power and glory of Christ. The effectual call of God transforms the heart, opening spiritual eyes and ears, leading to repentance, faith, and a desire for holiness. This call is central to the believer's new life and identity in Christ. ★ Support this podcast ★

n this episode of The Reformed Brotherhood, Jesse and Tony delve deep into Colossians 1:13-14, unpacking the Apostle Paul's rich theological message about being rescued from the domain of darkness and transferred into the kingdom of Christ. The discussion centers on the transformative power of God's grace, emphasizing the joy and beauty of redemption, forgiveness, and union with Christ. Through Christ alone, believers are qualified to share in the inheritance of the saints, receiving full access to the privileges of being children of God. Tony and Jesse explore the covenantal implications of the passage, showing how salvation is not based on human effort or merit but entirely on God's initiative. The conversation highlights the sufficiency of Christ in salvation, contrasting the gospel's message with works-based systems of theology. They also discuss how this passage reflects the broader themes of Pauline theology, including union with Christ, sanctification, and glorification. The hosts encourage listeners to embrace the good news of the gospel, reminding them that salvation is a gift received through Christ alone. They urge anyone who has not yet trusted in Christ to consider the beauty of being transferred into the kingdom of light. This episode is a theological feast, offering both encouragement and practical insights for living out the gospel. Key Points: Rescue and Redemption in Christ: Believers are delivered from the domain of darkness and transferred into the kingdom of God's beloved Son, emphasizing God's initiative in salvation.

Covenantal Theology: The passage underscores the covenantal framework of Scripture, showing how believers are brought into a new covenantal relationship through Christ. The Sufficiency of Christ: The episode highlights Christ's sufficiency in salvation, rejecting works-based systems and affirming that salvation is entirely a gift of grace. Questions for Reflection: How does understanding that salvation is entirely God's initiative impact your walk with Christ? What does it mean to you personally to be transferred from the domain of darkness into the kingdom of light? How does the concept of union with Christ shape your understanding of your identity as a believer?

The doctrine of Sola Gratia, or salvation by grace alone, is a central truth of the Gospel. Scripture is clear that we cannot earn forgiveness by our works, but only through the free gift of God's grace made available to use through faith in Christ. Listen to this sermon on Ephesians 2:1-10 as we consider the universal need for grace, the unearned gift of grace, and the ultimate result of grace.Ephesians 2:1-10And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.✉️ Subscribe to the Newsletter

In Ephesians 2:8-9, Paul wrote, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” Some Christians say these verses prove that practices such as baptism cannot be necessary for salvation because they are “works."
