The Creation - The Creator or His Creation Part 3of4 by Zac Poonen (Malayalam)
Zac Poonen · Nov 5, 2010 · 14m
The sermon emphasizes that true worship must be directed solely to God, the Creator, rather than to His creation. Drawing parallels from the Garden of Eden, the speaker argues that the temptation to worship created things—whether it be beautiful objects, worldly pleasures, or even money—is a constant test. Ultimately, believers must make a conscious choice to worship God alone, recognizing that one cannot serve both God and created things.

The Creation - The Creator or His Creation Part 4of4 by Zac Poonen (Malayalam)
Zac Poonen · Nov 5, 2010 · 14m
The central message warns against the danger of giving worship to both the Creator and the created things, stating that such double worship leads to a double hell. The speaker emphasizes that true commitment must be solely to God, drawing parallels between this spiritual commitment and the exclusivity of a marriage covenant. He urges the audience to make a clear choice for Christ alone, warning that remaining attached to worldly desires or false doctrines constitutes being part of 'Babylon.'

Inward Righteousness Part 3of4 by Zac Poonen (Malayalam)
Zac Poonen · Nov 4, 2010 · 14m
The speaker emphasizes that true victory over sin, such as anger, comes from the indwelling work of the Holy Spirit, not just from following rules. He stresses the necessity of immediate repentance, advising listeners to confess their sins and ask for forgiveness from those they have wronged right away, rather than delaying. The core message is that the Holy Spirit empowers us to feel conviction and seek forgiveness, which is a key difference between the Old and New Covenants.

Seeking Righteousness Part 4of4 by Zac Poonen (Malayalam)
Zac Poonen · Nov 4, 2010 · 13m
The speaker emphasizes that God's standard of righteousness is impossibly high, meaning no one can keep all commandments perfectly. He argues that all people, regardless of how 'good' they feel, are equally sinful before God, comparing them to vessels with holes. True salvation comes only by accepting the complete righteousness of Christ, not by adding personal good deeds to it. Believers must approach God with empty hands, acknowledging their need for Christ's righteousness.

Being considerate for others like Jesus - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jun 8, 2010 · 5m
True Christianity is demonstrated through thoughtfulness and consideration for others, which the speaker equates to holiness. He uses Jesus' neatly folded napkin after the resurrection as an example of this consistent care. The core message is that accepting the crucifixion of our 'old man' (our sinful nature) is necessary to experience the heavenly life, rather than merely seeking earthly blessings.

Legalism is worse than adultery
Zac Poonen · Oct 20, 2008 · 10m
Drawing from the story of the woman caught in adultery, the speaker argues that judgmental legalism is worse than the sin itself. True spiritual growth requires individuals to stop accusing others and instead focus intensely on self-examination and deep repentance. The ultimate goal is to achieve a state of brokenness before God, mirroring the mercy shown by Jesus.

Contempt Or Pride & Accent of Heaven
Zac Poonen · Oct 20, 2008 · 5m
The central message warns against viewing others with contempt, comparing this behavior to that of the Pharisees. The speaker emphasizes that pride, whether stemming from intelligence, success, or material possessions, leads to God rejecting grace. Instead, believers must cultivate humility, seeing others through God's eyes and never despising anyone, regardless of their perceived shortcomings.

How To Identify The Righteousness From God
Zac Poonen · Oct 20, 2008 · 4m 37s
The central message contrasts self-produced righteousness with the righteousness that is a gift from God, using the test of pride. If you are proud of a quality—whether it's generosity, skill, or church growth—it proves that you produced it yourself. True divine nature, which comes from God, cannot be the source of pride, especially when compared to the incomparable sacrifice of Calvary.

The Deception Of The Self Righteous
Zac Poonen · Jul 27, 2008 · 3m 45s
The speaker warns against the deception of self-righteousness, which manifests as spiritual pride and selfishness. He uses the analogy of an onion to illustrate that self-justification has endless layers, and true humility is recognizing one's own need for grace. The central message is that instead of boasting about personal victories, one must continually humble oneself before God.
