Through The Bible - Tamil - 24 (Isaiah - 1) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 27, 2012 · 25m
The speaker introduces the book of Isaiah, noting its structure and key prophecies concerning judgment and comfort, particularly referencing Isaiah 6 and chapter 53. He contrasts the uncompromising truth of prophets like Isaiah with modern preaching, arguing that true prophets speak God's difficult truth rather than comforting lies. The message emphasizes that God's people, like Judah in Isaiah's time, can sink to a low level of spiritual understanding, and that prayer is ineffective without a clear conscience and confession of sin.

Zac Poonen · Aug 26, 2012 · 56m
The speaker discusses that while marriage is ordained for human beings, all aspects of life—including marriage—must be lived in a Christian way.

Discipleship And The New Covenant - Zac Poonen (15 July 2012)
Zac Poonen · Jul 25, 2012 · 1h 5m
The speaker emphasizes that the Great Commission requires two parts: preaching the gospel (Mark 16:15) and making disciples (Matthew 28:19-20). True discipleship involves more than just accepting Christ; it requires loving Jesus above all else, denying oneself daily, and prioritizing Christ over possessions. Furthermore, disciples must be taught to live by every command of Christ, including loving enemies and practicing radical obedience, rather than just hearing about salvation.

The Law Of The Spirit_2.The Law Of Brokenness by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jul 12, 2012 · 1h 0m
The speaker explains that the Old Testament Law's purpose was not to be perfectly kept, but rather to reveal humanity's need for God's grace. He focuses heavily on the Tenth Commandment—'Thou shalt not covet'—as the only internal law, noting that even outwardly righteous people, like the Rich Young Ruler, failed at this internal standard. True freedom comes not from keeping the law, but from honestly acknowledging our inability to keep it and turning to Christ for help, which leads to inward purity.

"Fellowship In the Body of Christ" by Zac Poonen (8 July 2012)
Zac Poonen · Jul 11, 2012 · 46m
The sermon emphasizes that the Church is meant to be a unified 'body' connected inwardly to Christ, unlike a mere 'congregation' of people with shared interests. True unity and function within the body depend not just on spending time together, but on the perfect, internal connection to the Head (Christ). To be an effective member, one must possess both spiritual health (freedom from sin) and power.

The Law Of The Spirit_1.The Law Of Life by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jul 10, 2012 · 54m
The sermon contrasts the Law of Moses, which served only to reveal humanity's sinfulness, with the Law of the Spirit. The speaker emphasizes that while the Law of Moses was a physical set of commandments, the Holy Spirit is personal. He argues that many Christians mistakenly live under the principle of the old law, evidenced by being defeated by sin, when they should instead live under grace, which brings freedom. True life comes not just from studying doctrine, but from coming to Christ.

The core message is that the true power of the Holy Spirit is to enable us to live like Jesus on earth.
