Jeremy Utley - Two Questions That Changed My Life
Jeremy Utley · Apr 20, 2021 · 20m
The speaker shares two life-changing questions, focusing on the profound impact of asking, "What do you think God thinks of you?" He emphasizes that even with a good upbringing and knowledge of scripture, one can become discouraged or lose sight of God's kindness. The central message is to remain watchful and continually view God through the lens of His sweetness, mercy, and grace, rather than allowing our own expectations or perceived failures to create a hardened view of Him.

Zac Poonen · Apr 19, 2021 · 43m
True eternal life, according to Jesus, is not measured by the length of life but by the quality of knowing God. The speaker emphasizes that believers must understand both God's kindness and His severity, avoiding extremes in their understanding. Ultimately, living by faith—trusting God's word and provision—is the antidote to fear and anxiety.

The message encourages believers to overcome the urge to withdraw from fellowship due to feelings of unworthiness or sin. Drawing parallels from Leviticus regarding the cleansing of lepers and the consecration of the high priest, the speaker emphasizes that God restores those who feel cast out. Believers must grasp their justification in Jesus Christ, recognizing that through faith, they have boldness and confident access to God, regardless of how unclean they feel.

The message encourages believers to resist the temptation to seek approval from people, drawing parallels between Jesus's ministry and personal life. True fulfillment comes not from public recognition or ministry success, but from living for the approval of God alone. The speaker emphasizes that on the final day, only the Lord's opinion matters, urging the congregation to prioritize God's will over human praise.

Zac Poonen - God's Highest Purpose For Us In The New Covenant
Zac Poonen · Mar 29, 2021 · 58m
The central message is that Christians must maintain a balanced understanding of the New Covenant, moving beyond the lingering spirit of the Old Covenant. Specifically, the speaker emphasizes that believers must cease remembering past sins with condemnation, recognizing that God's promise is not that He has forgotten, but that He *chooses* not to remember them. True understanding of justification in Christ removes the need for constant reminders about sin and forgiveness.

You Cannot Glorify God if You Seek Man's Approval -- Santosh Poonen -- March 28, 2021
Santosh Poonen · Mar 29, 2021 · 52m
The central message is that true discipleship requires seeking God's approval rather than the applause or acceptance of people. The speaker draws parallels between Jesus's life and the Old Testament prophets, emphasizing that believers in the New Covenant must live at a higher standard, devoted solely to the Kingdom of Heaven. This devotion means prioritizing Christ above all earthly relationships, even family, and being willing to walk alone in faith.

The central message emphasizes that the devil's goal is to distort the true image of God and Christ in the hearts of believers. This distortion can manifest as misunderstanding God's love, which requires the Holy Spirit to reveal God's truth through experience, not just intellectual knowledge. The speaker repeatedly points to Romans 8, highlighting that Jesus is interceding for believers, and that the Spirit testifies with us that we are adopted children of God, allowing us to cry out 'Abba, Father.'

Freedom from the Fear of Death - Charles Banna
Charles Banna · Mar 26, 2021 · 57m
The speaker addresses the universal fear of death, drawing from Hebrews 2:14-15 to show that Jesus overcame death's power by becoming fully human. He emphasizes that life is fleeting, comparing it to mist or breath, and that all humanity, like Adam, is dust. The central message is to live ready for death by accepting Christ's salvation, as all earthly possessions and life itself are temporary.

A True Picture of God -- Ajay Chakravarthy -- March 21, 2021
Ajay Chakravarthy · Mar 22, 2021 · 53m
The central message is that our understanding of God dictates how we experience Him in our lives. If we operate from a flawed perception—such as viewing God as hard or exacting—our walk with Him will be painful. To correct this, we must look to Jesus, who perfectly reveals the Father's nature, which is characterized by unconditional love, as exemplified by the parable of the lost sheep. God's heart is to seek out and rejoice over the lost.

Zac Poonen · Mar 18, 2021 · 1h 36m
The speaker addresses self-condemnation by referencing Hebrews 8:12, emphasizing that God blots out sin completely, unlike the old covenant where sins were merely covered. He stresses that God sees us in the present, not based on past failures, and that confession should be made to God, not necessarily to people, unless the sin was committed against them. Regarding 'Babylon,' the speaker clarifies that it is not a specific church but a state of heart characterized by the love of pleasure, money, and self, which must be addressed internally rather than by changing congregations.

Zac Poonen - Jesus is our Example as an Overcomer
Zac Poonen · Mar 15, 2021 · 39m
The central message is that Christians must strive to be an exact reflection of Jesus Christ, who serves as the ultimate example of an overcomer.

Five Choices To Make | Choice 5: Choose to be a Christ Like Example | Santosh Poonen | Hindi
Santosh Poonen · Mar 10, 2021 · 11m
The central message emphasizes that life is defined by the choices we make, culminating in the choice to be a Christ-like example. The speaker uses the analogy of crossing a river to illustrate that mere knowledge of God's law (the Old Testament) is insufficient; one must live out the principles, just as Jesus lived and taught. Ultimately, believers are called to be visible examples of Christ's life, making their conduct the primary message for others.

Santosh Poonen · Mar 10, 2021 · 10m
The speaker emphasizes that every small decision determines the outcome of one's life, making the initial choice—choosing Christ—the most crucial. He uses the analogy of cancer in the soul to represent sin, stating that self-effort cannot cleanse this spiritual ailment. Salvation, and thus the ability to live a pure life, is only possible through the blood of Jesus Christ, which cleanses the soul.

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.

Santosh Poonen · Feb 22, 2021 · 57m
The central message emphasizes that being in Christ makes one a new creation, requiring a shift from living by sight to walking by faith. The speaker urges listeners to adopt a 'filter' when viewing circumstances, news, or people, refusing to judge based on outward appearances.

He concludes by urging believers to continually draw light and strength from Jesus.

The speaker encourages listeners to deeply ponder the question, "What is it that you are seeking?" Drawing from John 1:37-38, he emphasizes that simply claiming to follow Jesus is not enough; one must actively and honestly answer this question.

Jeremy Utley · Jan 26, 2021 · 19m

Zac Poonen - Be Thankful For The Way God Made You
Zac Poonen · Jan 25, 2021 · 30m
The central message is to be thankful for the unique way God has made each individual, resisting the temptation to compare oneself to others. Drawing from Psalm 73 and 1 Corinthians 12, the sermon emphasizes that every part of the body, no matter how visible or gifted, has a necessary and God-ordained function. True fulfillment comes from accepting one's unique role within the body of Christ rather than comparing oneself to others.
