The Great Tribulation And The Church - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Nov 15, 2015 · 1h 58m
The speaker draws lessons from Deuteronomy 6, emphasizing that teaching the next generation to fear and respect God is a profound responsibility that extends to grandchildren. True reverence for God is not based on fear of punishment, but rather on the fear of offending Him through one's actions or speech. The message concludes by referencing Leviticus 19:32, which speaks to honoring elders.

A Firm Foundation & A Fruitful Life - Santosh Poonen
Santosh Poonen · Oct 26, 2015 · 1h 18m
The speaker draws inspiration from Psalm 144, emphasizing that believers must be prepared to face life's 'giants'—representing personal sins or struggles—with the strength provided by God. He encourages the audience, particularly the youth, to develop a strong foundation, comparing them to corner pillars for a palace. The central message is that a passionate heart for God, like David's, is essential for spiritual warfare and building a life dedicated to God's purpose.

The speaker draws a lesson from Psalm 18:25, teaching that God treats people in the way they treat those below them socially or economically. He advises starting by treating others kindly as a transaction, but ultimately striving for the highest level: acting with kindness and mercy purely out of nature, expecting nothing in return, mirroring the nature of Jesus. He also notes that God affirms the wisdom of Elihu over the other three preachers in Job.

The speaker encourages church leaders to consistently preach foundational truths to both new converts and maturing members, citing the example of teachers who repeat basic lessons year after year. He emphasizes that repetition is necessary for understanding, referencing Charles Finney's experience that a truth often needs to be preached multiple times to truly resonate. The ultimate goal is to use all available technology to reach the entire world with the message of the Full Gospel.

The speaker emphasizes the necessity of total obedience to Scripture, arguing that true discipleship requires being willing to let people leave the church if they are offended by the teaching of God's Word. He uses historical examples and the concept of 'little commandments' to stress that the authority of Scripture must supersede cultural comfort or personal conviction. Ultimately, the message encourages believers to stand firm in proclaiming the truth, even when it causes division.

The speaker discusses the root cause of many sins and relational difficulties in Christians, comparing it to the insecurity felt by orphans. This deep-seated insecurity, which stems from a loss of perfect intimacy with God (like Adam losing God in Eden), leads to jealousy, possessiveness, and an inability to accept rebuke. The message ultimately points to the power and sufficiency found in Jesus' name and the reality of Christ's sacrifice.

A Burden For God's Name And His Kingdom
CFC Messages · Oct 23, 2015 · 55m
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant style of preaching, which involved standing, with the New Covenant style, which is likened to a family gathering where the head sits at the table. He emphasizes that the goal of the church is not merely to present sermons or gather accolades, but to build a family where God can dwell. Ultimately, the central focus must be on knowing the heart of God through deep scripture study, as this preserves the true glory of the Lord in the church.

The speaker compares the ministry of Jesus to other charismatic leaders of his time, such as John the Baptist, Theudas, and Judas of Galilee. He points out that while these other movements eventually failed and their followers scattered, the movement following Jesus, though facing persecution, is divinely protected. He concludes that the enduring nature of the Christian church, unlike the temporary movements of men, is evidence of God's plan.

The speaker discusses the importance of following Jesus Christ, noting that while Jesus was the first to say "follow me," the Apostle Paul also exemplified this by following Christ. He then quotes Paul's declaration of being "innocent of the blood of all men," clarifying that Paul meant he was free from the blood of those who would not hear the whole purpose of God, not merely those who were preached to.

The speaker discusses the distinctives of their church, drawing parallels to historical movements like Martin Luther's challenge to established practices. He focuses heavily on 1 Corinthians 3, emphasizing that while Christ is the only foundation, believers must be careful in how they build upon it. The core message is that God tests the *quality* of our work, not the *quantity*, urging believers to evaluate their motives and the lasting impact of their service.

The message emphasizes that true security and protection from the enemy come only from having the Lord as one's ultimate desire, surpassing all earthly ambitions or desires. The speaker cautions against serving any idol, including the desire for human honor, which can lead to spiritual injury and backsliding. Ultimately, one's calling is to fulfill their God-given ministry, whether it is healing, bearing fruit, or providing new wine, rather than seeking to rule over others.

Overcoming The World - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Oct 18, 2015 · 1h 18m
The speaker emphasizes that while the world presents many worldly measures of success (wealth, status), true greatness must be measured by one's standing in the sight of the Lord. He draws a parallel between earthly boasting and spiritual focus, urging the congregation to prioritize pleasing God above all else. The message concludes by referencing Jesus' promise of overcoming the world, suggesting that the anticipation of Christ's return is a key element in maintaining holiness.

The message emphasizes that what defiles a person is not what enters them from outside, but what proceeds out of their heart and thoughts. Evil thoughts, such as fornications, theft, and slander, originate internally, making the thought life the source of pollution. Therefore, true sanctification and victory over sin must begin with controlling one's thoughts.
