because if we use unbiblical words, we will get into an unbiblical way of thinking. So we need to come to scripture and see what the Bible calls the church. Then we have a proper concept about church.

God's grace is sufficient for every circumstance and trial we face, but His power is perfected in our weakness rather than our strength. When we become weak and stop relying on ourselves, we experience God's grace most fully and can live victoriously and peacefully, as demonstrated by the Apostle Paul who accepted his physical thorn as a means for God's grace to work through him.

The Christian life is a continuous process of spiritual warfare, likened to conquering the territory of Canaan by defeating various 'giants' representing sins like anger or dirty thoughts. True discipleship means purifying oneself until one resembles Christ, which involves both spiritual cleansing and active ministry. Ultimately, every believer is equipped by God for a specific, unique work they are called to finish before Christ returns.

The speaker compares Moses to a New Covenant person living in Old Covenant times, arguing that true spiritual understanding comes from receiving God's Revelation, which is different from mere intellectual knowledge. He emphasizes that humility is key to receiving this revelation, citing Moses' humility as an example. Furthermore, true revelation changes one's priorities, leading one to reject the honor of the world, the pleasures of sin, and the riches of earthly possessions.

The central message is that the church must be built in a place of genuine sacrifice, not cheaply or emotionally. Drawing parallels from the building of the temple and Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac, the speaker emphasizes that true devotion requires giving what costs us everything—time, comfort, reputation, or life—rather than what costs nothing. He advises believers to

Zac Poonen teaches that Christians must do everything for the glory of God, rejecting the spirit of Babylon—which seeks money, honor, and selfish pleasure—in favor of wholehearted devotion to Christ. He emphasizes the importance of immediately addressing sin through confession and repentance, just as one would urgently treat physical illness, and warns against living a double life with outward godliness but inward compromise.

Zac Poonen teaches that Christians must know Jesus in three progressive stages: as Savior (forgiveness from judgment), as Baptizer (filling with the Holy Spirit for victory), and as Forerunner (an example to follow in running the race of sanctification). True spiritual growth requires not merely believing in Christ but actively following Him—imitating His character, reactions, and way of relating to others—while living daily in God's presence.

The central message is that while salvation is secured by faith in Christ, the quality of one's life's work—not its quantity—will be tested by the fire of Christ's return. Just as wood, hay, and straw burn to ashes, works done apart from Christ will prove worthless, whereas works built on Christ will endure. Believers must live daily to please the Father, focusing on genuine devotion rather than worldly approval or impressive achievements.
