The Obedience Of Faith | विश्वास की आज्ञाकारिता | Zac Poonen | Hindi
Zac Poonen · May 24, 2021 · 56m
The central message emphasizes that the core of the Gospel, as seen in Romans, is not merely belief, but 'obedience of faith.' The speaker stresses that true faith must manifest as obedience to God's will, correcting the common misunderstanding that faith guarantees material blessings or physical healing. He warns against equating faith with receiving worldly goods, asserting that the ultimate goal of the New Covenant is leading believers to obedient action.

Discerning The Spirit Of Babylon | बेबीलोन की आत्मा को परखना | Zac Poonen | Hindi
Zac Poonen · May 21, 2021 · 1h 5m
The sermon discusses discerning the 'Spirit of Babylon' by contrasting it with the 'Bride of Christ' (the New Jerusalem). Babylon represents those who claim to be Christian but are not truly devoted to Christ, being worldly and spiritually unfaithful. True discipleship requires a deep commitment to Christ, rejecting the world's desires—such as lust, greed, and pride—and focusing instead on the knowledge that leads to eternal life.

Zac Poonen - What The Lord Expects From His Disciples
Zac Poonen · May 17, 2021 · 24m
To be a true disciple, one must be willing to sacrifice what is precious to them when following Jesus, as illustrated by examples where disciples were called to give up prior commitments. The core message emphasizes that discipleship requires immediate obedience to the Lord's call, without delaying it with personal priorities or plans. Ultimately, true discipleship is defined by doing the will of God, which requires denying one's own will.

How to be Ready for the Lord's Return -- Zac Poonen -- May 8, 2021
Zac Poonen · May 9, 2021 · 1h 14m
The speaker encourages listeners to develop the habit of memorizing hymns, noting that these can be spiritually strengthening, much like memorizing scripture. Regarding readiness for the Lord's return, he cautions that merely claiming to be Christian is insufficient; true readiness requires a deep, committed engagement to Christ, symbolized by being faithful to the covenant made at the outset. He warns against spiritual complacency, comparing it to the foolish virgins who were unprepared for the bridegroom's arrival.

Zac Poonen - Fellowship in Jesus' Body and Blood
Zac Poonen · May 3, 2021 · 11m
The sermon emphasizes that Christian fellowship is a deep reality, not merely a ritual, as seen in the breaking of bread. True fellowship requires believers to reflect Jesus' life by dying to their own self-will and carrying the 'dying of Jesus' daily, which is a process empowered by the Holy Spirit. This surrender eliminates inward demands on others, allowing for genuine bearing with one another and manifesting the life of Christ for God's glory.

Zac Poonen - The Most-Repeated Statement of Jesus
Zac Poonen · May 3, 2021 · 18m
The most repeated statement of Jesus in the Gospels is that whoever loses their life for His sake will find it. The speaker emphasizes that true Christian life requires more than just self-improvement or appearing godly; it demands a willingness to be despised and rejected for Christ. Ultimately, all actions, even mundane ones, must be done for the glory of God, which requires a profound brokenness, exemplified by Jacob wrestling with God.

Zac Poonen · May 2, 2021 · 1h 19m
The message warns believers against becoming self-appointed teachers, citing James 3:1, which warns that those who teach will face a stricter judgment. The speaker emphasizes that striving for Christian perfection must begin with controlling one's speech and tongue, advising believers to be careful in how they speak to family, colleagues, and others. He cautions against assuming expertise, whether in theology or medicine, simply from reading online.

Discerning the Spirit of Babylon - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 29, 2021 · 1h 6m
The message contrasts the 'harlot' Babylon with the 'bride,' which represents the faithful disciples of Jesus. Spiritual adultery is defined as claiming to be Christian while being unfaithful to Christ, often through friendship with the world system rather than devotion to Him. The speaker emphasizes that true discipleship means not loving the world—defined as the lust of the flesh, eyes, and pride of life—but instead doing the will of God, leading to spiritual life.

God wants to make us like Jesus : Perfect in love - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 29, 2021 · 44m
True eternal life, according to Jesus, is not about the length of life but about the quality of life—specifically, knowing God. The speaker emphasizes that believers must understand both the kindness and the severity of God, rather than focusing on just one aspect. Furthermore, living by faith in God's Word, rather than by feelings or sight, is crucial for a solid foundation and overcoming fear.

How Spiritual Decline Begins - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 28, 2021 · 58m
Spiritual decline is often preceded by a focus on knowledge over living out faith, exemplified by Adam and Eve choosing knowledge over life. The speaker draws parallels from the Old Testament, noting that when strong leadership fades, the people drift away, as seen with the Israelites after Joshua and Moses. True spiritual health, according to Paul's example in Ephesus, is demonstrated not by the eloquence of sermons, but by consistent humility and living before God.

The central message warns believers against becoming arrogant teachers or spreading gossip, cautioning that such behavior can lead to stricter judgment.

Global Online Meeting Q&A -- Zac Poonen -- April 10, 2021
Zac Poonen · Apr 13, 2021 · 1h 34m
The central message is that receiving the fullness of the Holy Spirit requires a radical, maximum-effort attitude of gratitude, rather than merely aiming for the minimum requirements to get to heaven. The speaker uses the analogy of a house with many rooms, emphasizing that believers must willingly open every area of their lives—including finances and habits—to the Spirit, as locking any door prevents the Spirit from filling that part of their life.

The message focuses on discerning the 'spirit of Babylon' using Revelation 17, contrasting it with the faithful 'New Jerusalem' or the bride who follows Christ.

Zac Poonen · Mar 17, 2021 · 20m
The sermon focuses on the danger of spiritual complacency, using the Laodicean church as an example of those who feel they have 'need of nothing.' The speaker emphasizes that true Christian hope is not merely seeing Christ at His return, but rather becoming completely like Him in thought, motive, and attitude. This requires a daily, purifying pursuit of Christ's standard, moving beyond self-satisfaction to a state of constant spiritual need.

Spiritual adultery is defined as claiming to be Christian while being unfaithful to Christ, often through friendship with the world system.

Zac Poonen - Breaking Of Bread - Being Detached From The World
Zac Poonen · Mar 8, 2021 · 17m
The central message is that true knowing of God goes beyond mere facts or theories; it requires an intimate, spiritual knowledge that is revealed through deep spiritual experience, symbolized by the breaking of bread. The speaker emphasizes that Christians must be detached from the world's attractions, recognizing that the cross of Christ is the only thing to boast in, which means having little interest in worldly things. This detachment is not about avoiding the world entirely, but refusing to be occupied by it.

Zac Poonen · Mar 8, 2021 · 21m
The central message is that fathers have the primary responsibility to raise their children in the ways of God, which involves discipline and instruction in the Word of God. The speaker contrasts the standards of the Old and New Covenants, emphasizing that in the New Covenant, the standard is higher, requiring fathers to actively teach their children at home rather than leaving it solely to church programs.
