Zac Poonen · Jan 6, 2023 · 47m
The speaker emphasizes that true greatness is measured by God's opinion, not man's, drawing from the example of Zachariah's prophecy regarding John the Baptist. He contrasts the earthly kingdom of Israel with the heavenly kingdom (the Church/New Covenant), noting that the latter is attacked by Satan. Ultimately, he teaches that even the least among born-again believers in the Church can be greater than John the Baptist, urging the audience to focus on spiritual growth and God's favor.
