Jesus warned that fear will be a prominent characteristic of the last days, as people will become anxious about the future.

The speaker uses the analogy of a beggar woman and a wealthy prince to illustrate the incredible value of the Gospel.

Zac Poonen · Apr 1, 2020 · 3m 49s
The speaker encourages listeners to realize that many burdens they carry are self-imposed, not given by the Lord. He emphasizes that just as Jesus took the immense burden of sin, He is capable of lifting every other weight we carry.

The central message is that salvation requires both repentance and faith, as illustrated by the necessity of two connected wires to complete an electrical circuit.

Zac Poonen · Apr 1, 2020 · 1m 26s
The sermon uses the analogy of mountain climbing to illustrate the difference between receiving mercy after a fall and receiving grace in the moment of need. It emphasizes that while mercy forgives sin after the fact, grace is the proactive help that lifts us up when we are struggling and about to fail.

Zac Poonen · Apr 1, 2020 · 1m 5s
The speaker uses the analogy of stars and the sun to illustrate the relative magnitude of love. He argues that while love for family and church members is important, it must be compared to the love of Jesus. Just as the sun's brightness makes the stars nearly invisible, the overwhelming light of Christ's love should eclipse all other affections.

Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 4m 16s
The central message emphasizes valuing one's fellowship with the Father above all earthly possessions, health, or even life itself. The speaker uses Jesus's experience in Gethsemane, where he was offered a way to avoid the cross, to illustrate this point.

The speaker uses an illustration comparing the effort spent searching for a small coin versus a large sum of money to illustrate how people often treat God.

Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 3m 33s
The central message is that life is temporary, mirroring the illustration of a child visiting someone else's house. Just as the child must leave everything behind when the mother leaves, we must remember that we came into this world with nothing and must leave it all behind. True faith means living with open hands, recognizing that nothing we possess—be it money, property, or even relationships—is truly ours to grasp.

Arise, Shine! Your Time Has Come - Santosh Poonen - March 22, 2020
Santosh Poonen · Mar 23, 2020 · 46m
The speaker cautions against misusing scripture, citing Psalm 91 as an example of how the devil attempted to use God's Word against Jesus. He emphasizes that while God's Word is true, its application must align with God's ultimate desire and purpose, not merely personal desire or hope. True assurance comes from understanding that God's word will accomplish what He intends, as seen in Isaiah 55, and that our focus must remain on God's purpose rather than claiming verses for personal comfort.

New Covenant Faith - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Mar 20, 2020 · 1h 23m
The speaker emphasizes that true faith is based only on what God has explicitly promised in Scripture, not on things believers desire or that are merely given to them. He points to Genesis 15:6, noting that this is the first instance in the Bible where the word 'believed' appears, referencing Abraham's faith in God's promise despite his circumstances. The core message is to distinguish between God's promises and other blessings to avoid deception regarding the nature of faith.
