Zac Poonen · 10m · CFC Daily Devotions
Repentance is the defining mark of a truly born-again Christian. Without genuine repentance—a turning away from sin with changed behavior—one's claim to conversion is hollow and superficial.

8: Dividing Between Soul and Spirit — Zac Poonen — April 20, 2025
Zac Poonen · Apr 25, 2025 · 54m
The speaker advises listeners to emulate the simplicity of a child and the selfless service of a servant to draw closer to God's kingdom. He then delves into the tripartite nature of humanity—spirit, soul, and body—emphasizing that while the mind (soul) and emotions can be stirred, true spirituality requires yielding the will, which acts as the door into the spirit. This yielding is presented as the crucial, practical step for spiritual growth.

The Spirit Reveals Christ & Seeking to Glorify Jesus — David L & Allan C — March 16, 2025
CFC Messages · Mar 21, 2025 · 15m
The central message is that true knowledge of Christ and the glory of Jesus can only be revealed by the Holy Spirit. The speaker draws parallels from scripture, such as Genesis 24 and Paul's testimony, emphasizing that believers must actively seek the Spirit's revelation. Ultimately, this pursuit involves daily spiritual warfare—putting to death the deeds of the body by the Spirit's power—and focusing on seeking glory from God rather than from people.

The speaker identifies the greatest battle for Christians as the one waged between the soul and the spirit. He explains that the soul is cunning and can deceive one into thinking they are spiritually mature. The passage from Hebrews 4:12 is highlighted, emphasizing that the Word of God is living, active, and sharp, capable of discerning deep truths like those between bone and marrow.

The service is a worship session focused on praising God for His eternal faithfulness and glory. The message emphasizes that true worth is found not in earthly accomplishments but in the sacrifice of Christ on the cross. The speakers also pray for the church to be devoted solely to worship, and for God's power to break the spiritual bondage and works of Satan in individuals, marriages, and homes.

The speaker uses the analogy of being arrested by a policeman to explain the concept of God's judgment. He warns that the devil tries to make people view God's exposure of sin and subsequent discipline as an act of enmity rather than divine justice. The message suggests that God, like the policeman, is ultimately working for good, even when confronting sin.

The message emphasizes that when facing discouragement, fear, or temptation, God makes the defense personal. Just as a good shepherd places himself between the sheep and the wolf, Jesus consistently places himself between believers and the devil. This assurance is a reminder of Christ's protective intervention in our spiritual battles.

The central message is that the devil fears confronting Jesus because of the victory Christ achieved on the cross. When believers establish their faith on this victory and pray by making the battle personal with Jesus, the enemy is forced into a confrontation he cannot win. This shifts the focus from a personal struggle against the devil to a battle fought through Christ's authority.

The speaker advises listeners on how to handle accusations, whether from people or the devil, by bringing them directly before the Lord. Instead of accepting the accusation, one should ask God if there is any evidence of truth in it. The core message is to refuse to let accusations take root, remembering that God defends His children.

Santosh Poonen · Dec 15, 2024 · 1h 1m
The sermon emphasizes that the Christian life is characterized by defenselessness, drawing parallels from Nehemiah rebuilding the wall against mockery and Paul's weakness. The central message is that God's power is perfected in human weakness, encouraging believers not to rely on their own strength but to trust in God's sufficient grace. Speaking God's word, even through testimony, is presented as a powerful spiritual weapon against the enemy.

The speaker discusses Jesus' warning about being more afraid of those who can kill you than of those who can harm you in a minor way, like pulling out a single hair. He uses this analogy to illustrate that believers should live a life free from fear, regardless of the threat level.

The message uses the urgency of a life-or-death situation, like Jesus's journey, to illustrate that God's work for us goes beyond merely solving our immediate problems. The central focus is that God desires to deal with the deeper issue of fear in our lives, offering freedom from it.

The message warns against spiritual complacency, cautioning against merely 'cooling off' or coasting through life while waiting for Christ's return. True discipleship requires an active, running pursuit of Christ, rather than a passive waiting posture. The speaker emphasizes that believers should be eagerly running to meet Him when He appears.

The speaker emphasizes that believers must discipline their bodies and minds to make them slaves to the Holy Spirit's will, rather than allowing them to follow their own desires. He challenges the audience to consider if their body and tongue are truly under the Spirit's control, warning that failure to do so could lead to disqualification.

The speaker corrects the expectation that being filled with the Holy Spirit results in a life of effortless peace and joy. Instead, the Spirit prepares believers to actively fight and win by crucifying the flesh with its passions and desires. Therefore, a life filled with the Spirit requires active spiritual battle.

Christ Died to Free Us From All Fear — Santosh Poonen — August 18, 2024
Santosh Poonen · Aug 18, 2024 · 1h 4m
The speaker emphasizes that the first promise of the New Covenant is salvation, which is more than just forgiveness; it is the freedom from sin. He urges the congregation to take seriously both the promises and commands of the New Covenant, noting that failure to claim a promise or obey a command means missing out on a divine opportunity. Specifically, he focuses on the command, "Do not fear," arguing that Christians must treat this command with the same seriousness as other moral obligations, lest they become paralyzed by fear and anxiety.

Santosh Poonen · May 6, 2024 · 57s
The sermon emphasizes that while believers may experience losing individual battles in daily life, they should not despair because the ultimate war is already won by Jesus Christ. The outcome of this spiritual conflict was sealed at Calvary, where Jesus defeated the devil. Therefore, believers are encouraged to persevere and remain part of the victory that has already been secured.

Zac Poonen · Apr 9, 2024 · 59m
The speaker distinguishes between three states of being: natural (unbeliever), carnal (believer living by the flesh/soul), and spiritual (believer living by the Spirit). He emphasizes that true spiritual maturity requires understanding the distinction between the soul and the spirit, which the Word of God reveals. The ultimate goal is to move beyond merely 'drinking milk' of basic doctrine to 'eating meat' of deeper spiritual truth, exemplified by Jesus tabernacling among us.

Don't Be One Through Whom Satan Infiltrates the Church — Santosh Poonen — January 14, 2024
Santosh Poonen · Jan 15, 2024 · 1h 13m
The speaker urges the congregation to prioritize knowing the scriptures and understanding the power of God, warning that mere knowledge without power leads to a spiritually stagnant life. He emphasizes that as the revelation of God's holiness increases, believers must actively seek God's power to bridge the gap between what they learn and what they experience. Furthermore, he advises remaining silent and listening more, referencing Exodus 14:4, as a path to greater victory.

No Stalemate in the War Against Satan — Santosh Poonen — January 7, 2024
Santosh Poonen · Jan 8, 2024 · 23m
The speaker emphasizes that believers must maintain a 100% commitment to God, leaving no area of life unconquered by Satan's influence. Drawing parallels from scripture (2 Corinthians 10 and Joshua 1), he urges the congregation to view the coming year as a gift from God, requiring constant vigilance and spiritual warfare. The central message is to avoid a 'stalemate' in the battle against sin and the enemy.

Do Not Wrestle Against Flesh — David Bertsch — January 7, 2024
David Bertsch · Jan 8, 2024 · 18m
The speaker emphasizes the critical importance of continually paying attention to the Word of God to avoid drifting away, drawing parallels between the Israelites' need for divine vision and the church's need for the Lord's voice. He focuses heavily on 2 Corinthians 10, teaching that while believers walk in the flesh, they must not wage war after the flesh. He concludes by suggesting that the primary battle against the flesh and temptation occurs within the private sphere of the home, rather than in public settings like church.
