He highlights the ongoing reality of spiritual warfare against unseen forces of darkness (Ephesians 6:12), seen in Scripture and in current testimonies from Cuba where Christ’s power delivers people from demonic oppression.\nThrough three healings—a leper cleansed by Jesus’ compassionate touch, a centurion’s servant healed by a word of command, and Peter’s mother-in-law restored to serve—Pastor Karl shows grace flowing freely from Jesus’ sovereign choice, overcoming contamination, demanding faith, and calling for obedient response.\nThe core truth: grace is free yet never cheap, and following Jesus is costly. Salvation is by grace through faith alone, but discipleship requires prioritizing the kingdom now, not later or with leftovers. Jesus challenges hearers: “You in?”—urging full surrender under His authority for cleansing, healing, and kingdom service.\n.\n\nWatch all our sermons on our youtube channel \"Flipside Christian Church\"\nJoin us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.\n37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636\nFor more visit us at flipside.church\nFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/-15b91ZN5YSTvcMaBg88Un0tBNj8bvuxIlVEwGcwztE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzYxMDAvMTU4Mzc4/MjMzNy1hcnR3b3Jr/LmpwZw.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
