Zac Poonen · May 26, 2013 · 46m

United With Christ In His Resurrection - Zac Poonen (Telugu)
Zac Poonen · May 26, 2013 · 58m
The sermon emphasizes that true spiritual life comes not from mere knowledge of scripture or adherence to religious rules (the letter), but from being open to and guided by the Holy Spirit. The speaker uses examples from the Bible, such as Adam and Eve and the church in Laodicea, to illustrate that intellectual knowledge or outward religious activity can lead to spiritual death if pride is allowed to set in. Ultimately, believers must allow the Holy Spirit to convict them of sin rather than relying solely on their own understanding or study.

The sermon uses the story of Adam's failure in the Garden of Eden to illustrate the contrast between life lived through obedience and life brought about by disobedience.

Ultimately, the speaker points to the life of Jesus Christ as the ultimate example of perfect obedience.

Zac Poonen · May 26, 2013 · 55m
The sermon emphasizes that true wisdom requires the ability to discern good from evil, comparing this to a child who cannot distinguish between mud and playthings.

Zac Poonen · May 26, 2013 · 56m
The sermon emphasizes that believers must constantly focus on Jesus Christ as the most important person present. Drawing from Amos 5:14, the core message is to 'seek good and not evil' to live, as God's presence is contingent upon this pursuit.

Youth Conference - Coming To God -3 by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · May 13, 2013 · 1h 1m
The speaker advises that just as lambs must learn to recognize the shepherd's voice, believers must actively seek fellowship with godly people until they can discern Christ's voice independently. He stresses the necessity of making difficult choices in relationships, warning that one must be willing to cut off relationships (like a hand or foot) that cause stumbling in the walk with the Lord, even if it means going against family or worldly ties. True discipleship requires a radical commitment to following Christ above all else.

Youth Conference - Coming To God -2 by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · May 13, 2013 · 47m
The central message is that true Christian living requires abandoning the attitude that God or the church owes the believer something. Instead, one must approach God with profound gratitude, recognizing that they owe everything to Him. The speaker contrasts this with the prodigal son's entitlement, urging listeners to come to Christ as repentant thieves returning what rightfully belongs to Him, leading to a genuinely happy and useful Christian life.

Youth Conference - Coming To God -1 by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · May 13, 2013 · 45m
The speaker advises young people that true spirituality comes not from knowledge or eloquence, but from adopting a proper Christian value system that guides one's life. He stresses the importance of being willing to look 'odd' and different from worldly peers to follow Jesus' narrow way. The message uses the parables of the lost sheep and the prodigal son to illustrate that safety and restoration come from remaining within fellowship and submitting to God's authority.

The True Grace Of God - (2 of 2) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 29, 2013 · 1h 2m
The speaker argues that many Christians misunderstand the true scope of God's grace, focusing only on forgiveness of sin rather than its comprehensive nature. He explains that grace, symbolized by the seven colors of a rainbow, encompasses more than just pardon; it also brings victory over sin, leading to a life where sin cannot rule. To truly understand grace, one must acknowledge that all human understanding, including religious tradition, can be flawed and must submit to Scripture.

Abiding In Love - Vincent
CFC Messages · Apr 23, 2013 · 29m
The sermon emphasizes that the core of Christian life is abiding in God's love, mirroring the unconditional love Christ showed, even to Judas.

A Church Of Overcomers - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 23, 2013 · 1h 1m
The speaker emphasizes that the full purpose of God is not limited to personal piety but involves the church building itself. He argues that true understanding of the church must come from studying the New Testament concepts like 'fellowship' and 'worship in the spirit,' rather than relying on tradition or personal ideas. Ultimately, the speaker asserts that the saints, not the leaders, are responsible for building the body of Christ, citing Ephesians 4:11-12.

God Loves Doing The Impossible - Santosh Poonen & Zac Poonen
Santosh Poonen · Apr 23, 2013 · 1h 13m
God loves to display His glory, and He often achieves this by working in impossible or hopeless situations. The speaker emphasizes that whether God answers a prayer with 'yes' or 'no,' the ultimate goal is to manifest His glory, which is best seen through weakness. Therefore, believers should align their ambitions with God's goal of displaying His glory, recognizing the necessity of the Holy Spirit for accomplishing the impossible.

Revelation Of God As Our Father - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 23, 2013 · 1h 1m
The sermon emphasizes that understanding the full purpose of God requires recognizing that no single individual can manifest all of God's glory; this necessitates deep fellowship with the body of Christ. True knowledge of God and Jesus Christ, which defines eternal life, leads to a profound hatred of sin. The speaker argues that many believers are spiritually illiterate because they do not view sin—such as lust, gossip, or bitterness—with the seriousness they deserve, failing to grasp the gravity of Christ's sacrifice on the cross.

Discipleship And All That Jesus Taught - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 23, 2013 · 1h 1m
The speaker draws lessons from Paul's warning to the elders in Ephesus, emphasizing that true ministry requires declaring the 'whole purpose of God,' not just parts of it. He critiques modern evangelism for being shallow and overly reliant on human logic or psychology, arguing that genuine spiritual understanding comes from deep study of scripture and submission to the Holy Spirit's guidance, rather than clever reasoning. The core message is the necessity of comprehensive teaching to reflect the full glory of God.

Trembling At God's Word - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 23, 2013 · 24m
The speaker urges the audience to develop a deep reverence for God's word, comparing it to a fear greater than fear of law enforcement. He emphasizes that true discipleship requires pursuing peace with all people and sanctification, warning that without this, one cannot see the Lord. The message also touches on the necessity of acknowledging one's own degree of guilt in every conflict, no matter how much fault lies with another.

Two Repentances - Abraham Plammootil
Abraham Plammootil · Apr 23, 2013 · 21m
The message centers on understanding 'repentance without regret,' which the Bible states comes from sorrow according to God, unlike the sorrow of the world. The speaker contrasts two biblical accounts involving women anointing Jesus with expensive perfume—one in Luke 7 involving a known sinner, and another in John 12 involving Mary, the sister of Lazarus. By analyzing the context of these two distinct stories, the speaker aims to clarify what true, Godly repentance looks like.

Through The Bible - English - 29 (Hosea & Joel) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 10, 2013 · 54m
The sermon uses the book of Hosea to illustrate the theme of spiritual adultery and God's enduring love. Spiritual unfaithfulness is equated with loving anything other than God—such as money, worldly honor, or pleasure—which constitutes idolatry. The core message is that true prophetic ministry requires experiencing God's heart through personal suffering, mirroring how God taught Hosea through a painful marriage. Ultimately, ministry effectiveness comes not just from knowledge, but from enduring trials that allow one to feel God's compassion.

Through The Bible - English - 22 (Ecclesiastes) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 10, 2013 · 57m
The speaker argues that while Solomon's wisdom is evident, Ecclesiastes demonstrates the futility of relying on human cleverness to find God. True wisdom, which is divine, is found through humility, exemplified by the childlike nature Jesus referenced. The core message is that intellectual prowess is useless in spiritual matters; one must lay aside human cleverness and approach God with a humble heart.

Through The Bible - English - 18 (Job-2) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 10, 2013 · 54m
The speaker uses the Book of Job as an illustration, noting that it deals with the individual rather than a nation. He emphasizes that criticism from fellow believers can be more painful and damaging than opposition from unbelievers. The sermon warns against speaking truth without proper motive, stressing that God judges the spirit behind our words, not just their outward correctness.

Through The Bible - English - 25 (Isaiah-2) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 10, 2013 · 56m
The speaker uses Isaiah chapters, particularly focusing on passages related to John the Baptist's ministry and the Second Coming, to teach that the church's role is to prepare people for Christ's return. Key themes include encouraging those in despair (valleys lifted up), humbling pride (mountains brought low), and emphasizing that while earthly glory fades like grass, the Word of God endures forever. Ultimately, the message calls believers to rely on God's immense sovereignty and power when they feel weak.
