All That Jesus Taught (Bible Study – 14 of 80) - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 14, 2015 · 25m
The sermon interprets Jesus' teaching, 'You are the salt of the earth,' to mean that true disciples must retain the 'taste of Heaven' in their lives. This taste is characterized by bringing life, joy, and peace, contrasting sharply with the world's focus on earthly matters. The speaker emphasizes that the effectiveness of disciples is not measured by quantity but by the quality and radical commitment of a few, citing biblical examples like the need for just one righteous person to save a city.

Zac Poonen · Jan 14, 2015 · 25m
Jesus taught that peacemakers are blessed because they are called sons of God. The sermon emphasizes that maintaining peace requires actively avoiding grumbling, complaining, and disputing in all aspects of life. The speaker advises that when faced with conflict, one must prioritize pursuing peace by being willing to die to self and one's own rights, even if it means sacrificing deeper fellowship.

All That Jesus Taught (Bible Study – 12 of 80) - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 14, 2015 · 26m
The speaker emphasizes that fulfilling the Great Commission requires understanding everything Jesus taught, particularly the attitudes outlined in the Sermon on the Mount. He contrasts worldly desires (like self-confidence and wealth) with the spiritual virtues Jesus praises, such as being poor in spirit, mourning sin, and hunger for righteousness. True discipleship requires a desperate, all-consuming desire for God's will, not just a convenient adherence to rules.

Who Can Build God’s House? - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 13, 2015 · 4m 56s
The speaker uses the historical example of Solomon building the Temple on Mount Morah to illustrate a spiritual principle. He emphasizes that the location chosen for God's house was significant because it was the place where Abraham offered Isaac and where David offered sacrifices. The central message is that one must never offer God anything that costs nothing; true devotion requires sacrifice, whether it costs money, health, or inconvenience.

A Fragrant Offering and Sacrifice to God - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 13, 2015 · 7m
The message uses Mary's costly anointing of Jesus' feet to illustrate that the greatest sacrifice is giving one's body, eyes, and tongue to God. The speaker emphasizes making sacrifices and serving the Lord when the opportunity arises, as chances may pass. True spiritual impact comes from making sacrifices in secret, which God will repay openly, allowing the aroma of Christ to emanate from one's life and home.

Bobby McDonald - True discipleship
Bobby McDonald · Jan 12, 2015 · 17m
True discipleship is defined not by outward actions or visible sacrifices, but by the inward willingness to deny oneself and follow God's will. The speaker emphasizes that merely performing religious acts or serving others is insufficient if the motive is not pure. True discipleship requires a deep, internal commitment to Christ that supersedes all other desires, even when no one is watching.

Jeremy Utley - Being a student of Jesus in the school of discipleship
Jeremy Utley · Jan 12, 2015 · 23m
The central message is that Christian discipleship is like being a student in a school, requiring a commitment to learn lessons every single day. True discipleship is not about quantity but about the quality of seeking to be wholehearted, meaning one must be eager to learn from God's lessons in every circumstance, day or night. This requires maintaining an attitude of constant readiness to learn, regardless of whether the day feels eventful or challenging.

Jeremy Utley - Colossians 1:10
Jeremy Utley · Jan 12, 2015 · 10m
The sermon explores the meaning of being pleasing to God in all respects, drawing heavily from Colossians 1:10 and Romans 14. The central message is that Christian living should not merely avoid what is wrong (permissibility) but must be motivated by a conscious desire to please the Lord in every action. This requires examining daily habits, like eating or observing days, to ensure they are done out of genuine faith and dependence on God, rather than simply by default.

Brokenness And Fulness Of Faith - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 8, 2015 · 37m
The central message is that building the church must follow God's pattern exactly, as exemplified by the construction of the Tabernacle. The speaker uses examples from scripture, such as David's life and the Ark of the Covenant, to warn against adopting worldly methods, even if they seem more efficient. He concludes that when human methods or the influence of money (Mammon) replace God's ordained way, the glory of God cannot be experienced in the church.

Suffering and The Kingdom of God - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 6, 2015 · 49m
The central message is that entering the Kingdom of God is intrinsically linked to suffering and faithfulness, not earthly prosperity. The speaker contrasts the modern 'health and wealth gospel' with the New Testament teaching, citing the apostles' willingness to suffer and die rather than compromise their faith. True discipleship requires embracing tribulation, as the apostles exemplified, rather than expecting comfort or worldly success.

Zac Poonen · Jan 5, 2015 · 25m
The speaker continues the study of what Jesus taught, focusing on the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5-7. He emphasizes that these teachings were primarily for disciples, not just the masses, and that true disciples take them seriously. The session begins by defining 'poor in spirit' as someone who is constantly aware of their spiritual need, comparing this need to a beggar's daily physical need, and noting that such a person is the one who finds life and possesses the Kingdom of Heaven.

Zac Poonen · Jan 5, 2015 · 26m
The speaker reviews Jesus' teachings, emphasizing that the Great Commission is to make disciples and teach them, not to replicate Jesus' miraculous healing ministry. He clarifies that Jesus' healings were divine attestations of His identity as the Son of God, not a repeatable command for all believers. While signs like healing will accompany believers (Mark 16), the primary focus remains on preaching the gospel and making disciples, adhering strictly to the specific instructions given in Matthew 28 and Matthew 10.

Zac Poonen · Jan 5, 2015 · 25m
The central message is that true discipleship requires making people followers of Christ first, rather than simply teaching them doctrine. The speaker emphasizes that being a 'fisher of men' is not achieved through study or effort, but by following Jesus. Ultimately, this means leading people from the 'water' of the world into the 'land' of the Kingdom of Heaven.

Bobby McDonald - Colossians 1:9
Bobby McDonald · Jan 5, 2015 · 8m
The central message is that Christians are called not just to know God's will, but to deeply understand it to know His heart. The speaker contrasts this understanding with merely obeying out of compulsion, drawing parallels from Psalm 32 and Psalm 73. Ultimately, true understanding leads to a joyful, surrendered life where one desires only God's will, realizing that God's plan is always best.
