A Good Conscience and Christs Return - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 3, 2015 · 57m
The speaker urges believers to take their spiritual inheritance in Christ seriously, comparing their lack of diligence to treating money. He emphasizes that spiritual stagnation suggests God is not a primary focus, and true seeking of God leads to finding Him. Furthermore, he warns that believers must live lives that do not give occasion to the enemy to blaspheme, and he contrasts two groups at Christ's return: those who will be bold and those who will shrink away in shame.

The speaker discusses the two parts of the Great Commission: preaching the gospel to all creation and the subsequent discipleship. He emphasizes that in unreached areas, preaching the gospel requires supernatural manifestations of God's power to convince people of Jesus's resurrection and divinity. Furthermore, he stresses the necessity of publicly reading scripture to teach people who have never encountered the Bible in their language.

The speaker emphasizes that Christian growth requires active 'pruning' to bear more fruit, which necessitates complete surrender to the Holy Spirit. This surrender means giving up personal control and allowing the Spirit to use one's body and life fully. True peace and rest are not derived from external circumstances but from choosing to come to Jesus and taking up His yoke.

The central message is that true spiritual growth comes not just from meditating on scripture, but from practicing simple, childlike obedience to what God reveals. The speaker emphasizes that applying plain biblical principles, such as working heartily for the Lord or being quick to listen and slow to speak, is the way to gain deeper understanding and build up the body of Christ.

Bobby McDonald - God's Presence And Our Will
Bobby McDonald · Aug 23, 2015 · 14m
The central message is that to experience God's presence, one must surrender their own will and ambitions, mirroring Jesus' life. The speaker draws parallels from Jesus' time in the temple and his quiet moments with God to illustrate that true closeness to God requires focusing solely on Him. Ultimately, the speaker equates the 'veil' separating humanity from God's presence with our own will, suggesting that crucifying our will is the way to enter into God's presence.

Santosh Poonen · Aug 1, 2015 · 57m
The speaker encourages young people to understand that true Christian power and faith are proven not in times of constant spiritual excitement, but in the mundane, lonely circumstances of daily life. Drawing from Jesus' words to the disciples, he asserts that it is actually to the believers' advantage when the 'youth conference' ends, because the genuine power of God is revealed in the darkness and solitude of everyday life. He urges the audience to test the reality of their faith when all the 'lights' of external support are turned off.

Bobby McDonald - The difference between love for God and devotion to Him
Bobby McDonald · Jul 13, 2015 · 11m
The speaker distinguishes between 'devotion to God' and 'love for God.' Devotion is defined as making one's life revolve around Jesus, exemplified by Mary choosing the 'good part' over Martha's many tasks. Love, conversely, is rooted in action for another's sake, citing John 15:13, and is best understood through keeping God's commandments (1 John 5:3) as a sacrifice. Ultimately, both concepts require centering life on Christ above all else.

The speaker emphasizes that the fullness of the Holy Spirit is necessary to truly build a foundation in Jesus Christ; otherwise, religious efforts are merely human work without divine power. He cautions that seeking the Holy Spirit's baptism should not become merely about gifts like tongues, but must instead make Jesus Christ more glorious in the hearer's sight. Furthermore, he addresses the need for believers to be sober-minded in all areas, using the warning against getting drunk with wine as an analogy for spiritual sobriety.

This imitation is modeled after the Holy Spirit, who speaks only what He hears, and the Father's work.

Zac Poonen · Jun 22, 2015 · 9m
