August 4 | Daily Devotion | The Mark Of New Covenant Blessing Is Not Wealth And Health | Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · 11m · CFC Daily Devotions
True blessing under the New Covenant is not measured by material wealth and health, but by spiritual transformation and union with Christ. The mark of God's blessing is internal holiness and a clear vision of Christ, not external prosperity.

Foolishness Destroys a Church -- Santosh Poonen -- September 29, 2021
Santosh Poonen · Sep 30, 2021 · 1h 6m
The speaker argues that the greatest danger to the church is not overt wickedness, but rather 'foolishness,' which he identifies as 'soulishness.' This foolishness manifests as misplaced priorities, such as caring more for earthly planning and possessions than for eternity. He emphasizes that true wisdom involves prioritizing the soul and eternal matters over worldly concerns.

Some Principles for Building the Church -- Zac Poonen -- August 15, 2021
Zac Poonen · Aug 17, 2021 · 1h 1m
The central message emphasizes that building the church requires more than just listening to sermons; genuine fellowship is crucial. Drawing an analogy from the body's joints, the speaker argues that individual parts must function together in love for the body to grow.

How to Encourage Others -- Zac Poonen -- August 8, 2021
Zac Poonen · Aug 10, 2021 · 49m
The central message is the necessity of believers recognizing that they are members of one another, requiring them to actively encourage one another daily. Drawing from Hebrews 3, the speaker warns against allowing an unbelieving heart to cause one to fall away from God. Encouragement should be a constant practice in all aspects of life, not just in church services, as this guards against the deceitfulness of sin. The speaker concludes by pointing to Jesus as the ultimate example of one who ran the race and overcame every temptation.

The central message emphasizes that true eternal life is not merely the forgiveness of sins, but rather knowing the Father and Jesus Christ, as defined in John 17:3. The speaker applies this concept of knowing God to three areas of life: personal, family, and church life. He concludes by encouraging the congregation to find safety and belonging in God's name, comparing the church to a strong tower (Proverbs 18:10), which offers refuge regardless of worldly status or rejection.

Strengthened Through Trials to Strengthen Others -- Zac Poonen -- March 3, 2021
Zac Poonen · Mar 4, 2021 · 58m
The sermon emphasizes that the Christian body, established by the Holy Spirit, is composed of many diverse members, each with a necessary function. It cautions against feeling insignificant or believing that only certain gifts (like preaching) are valuable, pointing out that even seemingly weaker members are crucial. True church life involves actively building up the local body through mutual encouragement and utilizing the gifts God has given every believer.

The sermon warns against being complacent in the church, referencing Amos 6:1. Drawing parallels from Daniel's account, the speaker emphasizes that true spiritual depth requires obedience in small matters, as demonstrated by Daniel's commitment to purity.

Building the Church as the Journey into the Most Holy Place - Santosh Poonen - September 27, 2020
Santosh Poonen · Sep 28, 2020 · 55m
The central message is that following Jesus means actively building His church, which involves making disciples and fulfilling the Great Commission. The speaker emphasizes that the ultimate ambition for believers, both in life and in heaven, must be to please the Lord, as all actions will be accounted for at the judgment seat of Christ. Therefore, building the church must be rooted in pleasing God personally, rather than merely belonging to a specific denomination or organization.

God's Original Plan for Church Leaders - Zac Poonen - September 26, 2020
Zac Poonen · Sep 26, 2020 · 1h 28m
The message emphasizes returning to God's original plan for the church, warning against misinterpreting scripture or allowing cultural trends to dictate doctrine. The speaker stresses that true leadership requires constant vigilance, prioritizing the glory of God above human opinion, and maintaining a pure focus on Christ's teachings. He uses the analogy of a ship's constant course correction to illustrate the need for leaders to continually guide the church back to its intended direction.

Building the Church God's Way - Zac Poonen - August 19, 2009 (Audio Only)
Zac Poonen · Sep 24, 2020 · 1h 0m
The central message is that achieving an 'indestructible life' and building the church according to God's will requires deep commitment and understanding of two great mysteries: living a godly life without sinning (mystery of godliness) and the oneness of the church. The speaker emphasizes that this unity, which transcends natural divisions, is achieved through Christ's work and requires surrendering one's own will to God's will, symbolized by the rending of the veil.

A Prophesying Church - Zac Poonen - August 19, 2009 (Audio Only)
Zac Poonen · Sep 23, 2020 · 49m
The sermon uses the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14-30) to teach that every believer has been given a specific gift or ability by God, regardless of how 'spectacular' it seems. The danger lies in burying these gifts out of fear, jealousy, or misunderstanding of God's will. The central message is that every individual part in the body of Christ has a necessary function, and believers must actively use what they have been given to build up the kingdom.

Santosh Poonen · Sep 14, 2020 · 48m
The speaker emphasizes that a church's purpose extends beyond mere social gathering; it must maintain a clear vision given by God. He draws parallels with Jesus' ministry, noting that true godliness is often offensive to many, and that the church's calling requires divine power to speak into people's deepest needs. Ultimately, the message challenges Christians to move beyond merely seeking forgiveness and instead embrace a life of radical discipleship, mirroring Christ's willingness to sacrifice for the Kingdom.

The speaker addresses questions regarding church discipline, stating that if a member rejects the church's discipline, they should be treated like an unbeliever, though fellowship can resume if repentance is evident. He clarifies that while sin is forgiven by Christ, believers still face the consequences of their actions.

The speaker emphasizes the absolute necessity of pursuing holiness, drawing parallels from Psalm 24 and Psalm 15, which require clean hands and a pure heart to dwell in God's presence. This pursuit of purity is linked to the church being built as a pure, blameless bride and is a continuous call to keep both the individual and the community—God's temple—clean from defilement. Ultimately, the message stresses that God's holiness remains absolute, demanding a life of purity in heart and action.
