4.Partaking Of God's Nature - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · May 6, 2014 · 59m
The sermon reviews God's promises, emphasizing that the ultimate goal is for believers to partake of God's nature. The speaker urges listeners to seek honor from God rather than man, cultivate a heart filled with heaven's virtues (righteousness, peace, joy), and remain humble to receive God's sufficient grace. True transformation into Christ's image requires complete submission to the Lordship of the Holy Spirit.

Testing Your Godliness - 1: Love Your Enemy - Santosh Poonen - May 4, 2014
Santosh Poonen · May 5, 2014 · 40m
The speaker emphasizes that true godliness is measured not by programs or activities, but by a deep, increasing love for God and for fellow believers. He argues that a genuine love for God is demonstrated through loving one's spouse, children, and church community self-sacrificially. The message warns against treating Christ or the church as a 'project' or a cause to be promoted, stressing instead that obedience must originate from the Lord's sovereign will.

CFC Messages · Mar 30, 2014 · 1h 14m
The sermon emphasizes that God judges not by outward appearance but by the heart, referencing the principle from 1 Samuel 16. It warns that everything we do, think, and say is recorded, comparing our memory to a divine video camera. This record is permanent and will be revealed before God, meaning we are accountable for our entire lives, not just what others know about us.

The speaker emphasizes that true holiness originates from within, residing in the heart and mind, rather than being merely external adherence to rules or outward displays. He contrasts this internal transformation with worldly distractions like music and money, asserting that the Holy Spirit's work is internal, leading to a life that reflects the glory of Jesus Christ. The message stresses that the greatest work of God is writing His law on the heart, which is the essence of true spiritual life.

The speaker emphasizes that true holiness and revival must come from within, not just from outward appearances or impressive church buildings. He draws a parallel between cleaning the inside of a house and the necessity of purifying the heart and life of believers. The central message is that genuine holiness is manifested in the private life, the home, and the ability to control one's inner self, which is only possible through the filling of the Holy Spirit.

The sermon emphasizes the importance of maintaining a pure heart and first love within the church, warning against complacency and spiritual routine. The speaker encourages members to remain serious in their commitment to Christ and to avoid judging or looking down upon other Christians or denominations. True spiritual growth requires self-examination and a continuous desire for purity before God.

7.Love (Part 2) - Santosh Poonen
Santosh Poonen · Feb 21, 2014 · 41m
The speaker emphasizes that love is a discipline toward God, drawing a parallel between Newton's third law of motion and spiritual life. He argues that the depth of one's love for God is proportional to the magnitude of sin one has been forgiven. True love, therefore, is the equal and opposite reaction to the grace received through forgiveness.

9.Enduring In Love - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 21, 2014 · 1h 0m
The central message is that readiness for Christ's return is more important than knowing the specific details of the end times. True readiness comes from the heart, which must be detached from the world's attractions. The sermon emphasizes enduring in love amidst increasing sin and deception, drawing parallels to the 10 virgins where the oil represents the sustained life of Christ's love.

2.Great Deception - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 21, 2014 · 57m
The central message is that true devotion to Christ, likened to a bride's love for her groom, should not be motivated by the fear of being caught in sin, but by a genuine, passionate love for Him. The speaker cautions against focusing excessively on end-times details, arguing that such intellectual curiosity can distract from living a godly life. True holiness comes from a deep, internal commitment to Christ, regardless of when He returns.

7.Purity In Us And Our Children - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 20, 2014 · 1h 0m
The central message is that God desires a 'pure testimony' over a merely 'large' one, contrasting the glory of Jerusalem with the superficiality of Babylon. True church building requires wholehearted commitment and adherence to the New Covenant, rather than relying on worldly trappings like money or music. Believers must focus on discipleship and maintaining spiritual purity, even when the church gains popularity.

3.Making wholehearted Disciples - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 20, 2014 · 1h 0m
The speaker argues that the human race is characterized by a lack of reverence for God, evidenced by the way people use their tongues to deceive and speak carelessly. True reverence leads to controlling one's speech, progressing from restraining oneself under the law to the divine nature taking over in the New Covenant. Furthermore, humanity is plagued by self-seeking interests, which the speaker contrasts with the reality of being truly born again and grafted into Christ.

2.A Witness For God On Earth - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 20, 2014 · 58m
The central message is that true worship goes beyond mere singing or ritual, requiring a deep, heartfelt attitude of devotion to God. The speaker emphasizes that the highest form of worship is found in spirit and truth, exemplified by a profound desire for God's presence above all else. He urges listeners to examine their worship practices, moving beyond rote memorization of songs to genuinely mean every word spoken to God.

1.The Burning Bush - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 20, 2014 · 1h 0m
The central message is that true Christian life requires maintaining a pure testimony, symbolized by the burning bush. This purity is achieved by controlling the tongue—abstaining from gossip, complaining, and murmuring—and desiring nothing on earth except Jesus. Ultimately, believers must strive to be constantly on fire for God, allowing God to dwell within them, which is the true measure of spiritual leadership and discipleship.

Why Another Church: 4.Discipleship and Obedience - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 31, 2014 · 58m
The speaker discusses the warning in 1 Timothy 4 that people will fall away from the faith by following deceitful doctrines. He emphasizes that true godliness is found in the mystery revealed through Christ—that God's word was made flesh—not through external practices like celibacy, extreme fasting, or dietary restrictions. True holiness is an inward reality achieved through faith and dependence on God, manifesting corporately in the church as the Body of Christ.

Why Another Church: 3.Coming Out Of Babylon - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 31, 2014 · 58m
The sermon explains that a 'why another church' arises when the established leadership fails to heed warnings from the Holy Spirit, leading the congregation into backsliding. This failure is often characterized by misuse of spiritual gifts for personal gain, doctrinal drift, pride, or neglecting true holiness. Ultimately, God withdraws His presence, causing the true remnant to gather into a new, authentic church.

The speaker emphasizes that Christians should focus on living the narrow way, following the path of the cross, rather than just listening to sermons. Drawing from Paul's ministry in Ephesus, he argues that people should judge a preacher not by the volume of their sermons, but by the consistency and integrity of their lived life. True discipleship requires observing both the teaching and the character of the messenger.

Blessed Are the Tamed - Santosh Poonen - December 1, 2013
Santosh Poonen · Dec 2, 2013 · 57m
The central message is that true meekness is not weakness or passivity, but rather the process of taming the wild, uncontrolled spirit within us. Drawing parallels to taming a powerful wild animal, the speaker argues that meekness, which is a fruit of the Holy Spirit, does not diminish our strength but channels our power for God's kingdom. This understanding shifts our perspective away from worldly definitions of meekness.

Sexual Temptation – Overcome It By Fearing God – Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Nov 20, 2013 · 7m
The central message is that overcoming sexual temptation requires nothing more than the fear of God, as exemplified by Joseph in Genesis 39. The speaker argues that excuses like lack of Holy Spirit filling or insufficient Bible study are insufficient; the root cause is a lack of reverence for God. Maintaining this fear of God is presented as the beginning of wisdom, which is necessary for a righteous life, including a happy marriage.

Zac Poonen - The Holy Spirit Show us Jesus - NCCF Conference Feb 2013
Zac Poonen · Nov 6, 2013 · 55m
The speaker emphasizes that true knowledge of Jesus requires recognizing Him as the Savior who forgives sin, rather than merely a 'forgiver' who addresses only outward sins. He contrasts the 'real Jesus' with a 'different Jesus' who offers earthly blessings but not freedom from sin. Furthermore, he distinguishes the Holy Spirit's work—which leads to holiness—from mere emotional displays, urging listeners to focus on the core gospel message found in the New Testament.

5.In our Obedience to the Scriptures - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Oct 18, 2013 · 1h 15m
The speaker emphasizes that true understanding of scripture cannot come from pre-conceived theological frameworks or 'molds' in our minds. Instead, one must allow the scripture itself to be the mold, allowing it to shape one's thoughts and understanding. He warns against spiritual complacency, urging listeners to pursue peace with all people and holiness, lest they fail to see the Lord. Furthermore, he cautions against despising God's grace, urging believers to live as spiritual royalty rather than as beggars.

3.The Glorious Calling of the Husband in Marriage - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Oct 18, 2013 · 1h 22m
The sermon emphasizes that the foundation for Christian life, whether in marriage, family, or the church, must be God's unconditional love. The speaker uses the analogy of a three-story building, arguing that without the foundation of God's love, the subsequent levels—personal walk with God, family life, and church community—cannot be properly built. He stresses that understanding God's love is prerequisite to loving others and maintaining a holy life.

What is Salvation?: Part 4 - Santosh Poonen - July 7, 2013
Santosh Poonen · Jul 10, 2013 · 1h 0m
The speaker emphasizes that true salvation is far more than just the forgiveness of sins; it is a profound, ongoing transformation. He stresses that salvation is a personal relationship with Jesus, a secret work of the Holy Spirit, and a process perfected through suffering and learning obedience, mirroring Christ's own experience. He concludes by addressing the complex theological debate regarding the loss of salvation, indicating it is a necessary topic to discuss.
