Through The Bible - English - 64 (Hebrews-4) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 10, 2013 · 55m
The sermon discusses the profound benefits of the New Covenant detailed in Hebrews. Key points include the fact that God no longer remembers our sins, the universal access to know God personally through Jesus, and God's promise to write His laws into our hearts and minds, granting both desire and ability. The speaker emphasizes that while God provides the means, human submission, like Mary's, is required to receive this new life.

Through The Bible - English - 68 (2 & 3 John, Jude) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 10, 2013 · 53m
The speaker analyzes 2 John, emphasizing that the core message is threefold: obeying God's commandments, loving one another, and confessing that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. He argues that while all three points are vital, the emphasis on Christ's incarnation is crucial because it serves as the mark of the Holy Spirit and the antidote to deception. Knowing this truth allows believers to discern right doctrine from error.

Through The Bible - English - 53 (Ephesians-1) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 9, 2013 · 55m
Paul's letter to the Ephesians emphasizes that true Christian life must be rooted in one's spiritual position in Christ, not merely external imitation of Christ's works. The speaker argues that believers must move beyond simply acknowledging forgiveness and focus on growing into spiritual maturity. He stresses that a life lived on earth must reflect a heavenly mindset, with the foundation of this life being found in the spiritual realities described in the first three chapters of Ephesians.

Through The Bible - Tamil - 43 (John - 1) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 6, 2013 · 50m
The passage explains that John's Gospel establishes Christ's eternal existence as the Word, which is the visible expression of the invisible God. It emphasizes that humanity cannot fully comprehend God, but Christ reveals God as love. The sermon stresses that true understanding of God comes through Christ, who embodies the perfect balance of grace and truth, unlike the incomplete teachings of other religions or the Pharisees.

Through The Bible - Tamil - 54 (Ephesians - 1) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 6, 2013 · 49m
The sermon emphasizes that the core theme of Ephesians is understanding what it means to be 'in Christ' and the blessings that grace provides. Paul structured the book to first detail what God has done for us (Chapters 1-3), which serves as the foundation, before discussing our response (Chapters 4-6). The speaker stresses that true Christianity is based on recognizing these spiritual blessings, such as being chosen before the foundation of the world and receiving forgiveness through Christ's blood.

Through The Bible - Tamil - 58 (Colossians) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 6, 2013 · 51m
The sermon emphasizes that Colossians is complementary to Ephesians, stressing the truth that Christ is in us. A major theme is understanding God's viewpoint, which diminishes the perceived importance of earthly things like money or status. By adopting this spiritual perspective, believers can walk in a manner pleasing to the Lord and treat all people, regardless of wealth or status, with equal regard.

Through The Bible - Tamil - 63 (Hebrews - 1) by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 6, 2013 · 51m
The speaker argues that Hebrews is a crucial book explaining the new covenant and the superiority of Jesus over the old covenant system. He emphasizes that the key to spiritual strength is looking unto Jesus and pressing on to perfection. Furthermore, the degree of anointing a believer receives is directly proportional to how much they love righteousness and hate iniquity.

Zac Poonen · Apr 6, 2013 · 50m
The sermon discusses Hebrews 4, focusing on Jesus Christ as our great high priest who passed through the heavens. Key themes include Jesus' ability to sympathize with our weaknesses because he was tempted like us, yet without sin. The speaker emphasizes drawing near to the throne of grace to receive both mercy for past sins and grace for future temptations, noting that Jesus prayed throughout his earthly life to be saved from spiritual death. Finally, the message highlights Christ's humility in accepting the priesthood according to Melchizedek's order.

Why God Delays Victory - Zac Poonen - March 13, 2012
Zac Poonen · Mar 15, 2013 · 53m
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant, which functioned as a 'Ministry of condemnation' through strict laws, with the New Covenant, which is a 'Ministry of righteousness.' While the law's purpose was to show humanity its need for a Savior, attempting to live by its standards leads to constant condemnation. The New Covenant, established by God, promises internal transformation—writing God's law on the heart—leading to liberation rather than condemnation.

6) Wisdom Is With The Humble - Zac Poonen (With Kannada Translation)
Zac Poonen · Feb 28, 2013 · 53m
The central message is that in Christ, all distinctions—such as caste, wealth, or education—are abolished, and God values humility above all else. The speaker emphasizes that God is the enemy of the proud and that true fellowship is found among the humble. The 'real church' is not the visible crowd but the small group of genuinely humble believers that God recognizes.

The Gospel Is The Power Of God - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 23, 2013 · 1h 1m
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant's focus on external sin with the New Covenant's emphasis on inward sin and heart purity. He argues that the Gospel encompasses more than just forgiveness of sins; it involves inheriting a spiritual inheritance purchased by Christ's sacrifice. The central message is that the Christian life must focus on sin and spiritual freedom, which is far more valuable than material wealth or even physical healing.

Zac Poonen - The Church Must Guard Her Connection To Christ (NCCF)
Zac Poonen · Feb 12, 2013 · 55m
The sermon emphasizes that the Christian life must reflect a continuous, upward trajectory of growth, like the sun's path, rather than settling for substandard spiritual experiences. True church fellowship is not about mutual care, but about each member maintaining a primary, deep, and active relationship with God. The speaker argues that a weak horizontal fellowship often stems from a neglected vertical relationship with the Lord.

The Equilibrium Point of Our Convictions - Santosh Poonen - February 10, 2013
Santosh Poonen · Feb 10, 2013 · 47m
The speaker emphasizes that God's Word is 'living and active' because it is inspired by God, a concept illustrated by the Greek word *theonustos* (God-breathed). He compares reading scripture to a vital conversation, not just reading a book, and uses the analogy of CPR to show that God breathes life into our struggles. Ultimately, he argues that our convictions must also be 'theonustos,' resting on the unshakeable foundation of Jesus Christ, even when denominations disagree on secondary issues.

Jesus Came To Make The Impossible Possible - Sanjay Poonen
Sanjay Poonen · Jan 31, 2013 · 27m
The central message is that Jesus's life and ministry demonstrate that God has the power to make the impossible possible throughout history, citing examples from creation, Abraham's lineage, Joseph's life, and the birth of Jesus. Ultimately, the most crucial transformation God makes possible is the change of the heart, which is achieved through the power of the Holy Spirit, as exemplified by Peter's transformation.

3.The Authority Of God's Children by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Dec 31, 2012 · 1h 5m
Jesus taught his disciples that their true joy should not come from the authority over demons, but from the fact that their names are recorded in heaven. The speaker emphasizes that the devil's power is proven throughout scripture, and Jesus's life and death demonstrated that by being fully surrendered to Christ, believers are impervious to the devil's attacks. Therefore, the only preparation for the uncertain future is leading children to total surrender to Christ's authority.

This message addresses the proper attitude believers should maintain regarding money.

The core message is about maintaining balance and ensuring that finances do not dictate our spiritual priorities.

6) The Most Important Thing In Life by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 23, 2012 · 59m
The most important focus in the Christian life is not merely reaching heaven, but being conformed to the image of Jesus Christ, which is God's predetermined destination for us. The speaker warns against 'majoring on minors'—focusing on secondary activities like evangelism without embodying Christ's character—which can distract from this ultimate goal. True Christian living requires aligning all aspects of life, including speech, actions, and even evangelism, with the likeness of Christ.

2) Knowing The Love Of God by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 23, 2012 · 55m
The central message is that true Christian love for God flows directly from recognizing and experiencing His perfect, unconditional love for us, as stated in 1 John 4:16-19. The speaker warns against lukewarm faith, suggesting that any element of fear or calculation in our relationship with God indicates we have not fully grasped the depth of His love. He contrasts the fear-based worship of heathen religions with the boundless, generous love of the biblical God.

Santosh Poonen · Sep 17, 2012 · 53m
The speaker cautions against the misconception that God's pleasure in using a person or ministry is determined by worldly success or recognition. He emphasizes that God can use anyone, even those He is not pleased with, to accomplish His purpose, citing examples like Pharaoh, Balaam, and Judas Iscariot. True measure of God's favor lies in the heart and life of the individual, not the visible ministry.

Sonship, Faith, and Worship - Santosh Poonen - July 15, 2012
Santosh Poonen · Jul 15, 2012 · 55m
The speaker compares the Old Covenant to a picture or shadow of the New Covenant, which is fully realized in Jesus Christ. He warns that focusing too much on analyzing the Word (the picture) can lead to bondage, while the true joy comes from relating to the living, present reality of Jesus. The message encourages believers to keep their focus on the living Bridegroom rather than getting lost in theological analysis of the Word.

02.Free Will And Conscience - Zac Poonen (With Tamil Translation)
Zac Poonen · Jun 24, 2012 · 26m
The passage explores the necessity of free will and conscience, arguing that these attributes are what give life true value, unlike programmed obedience. God desired beings capable of voluntary love and choice, even at the risk of disobedience, which is why He granted humanity free will and conscience. These capacities allow for genuine relationship, contrasting sharply with the perfect but unfeeling obedience of machines or planets.

05.The Heavenly And Earthly Pulls - Zac Poonen (With Tamil Translation)
Zac Poonen · Jun 24, 2012 · 27m
The speaker argues that while humans share physical similarities with animals, the unique element of humanity is the spirit, which is distinct from mere mind or feeling. This spirit is evidenced by the conscience, which reminds us of a higher power and our accountability. To live as God intended, one must actively listen to this conscience, as ignoring it causes us to regress to an animalistic state.
