Overcoming the Special Temptations of This Time - Zac Poonen - April 1, 2020
Zac Poonen · Apr 2, 2020 · 58m
The sermon applies the three temptations of Jesus in Matthew 4 to modern life, emphasizing that trials are guided by the Holy Spirit when one walks in God's will. The central message is that true survival and triumph in times of scarcity or crisis come not from physical provision (like bread), but from living by God's Word and remaining obedient to the Father's leading. Disciples must listen to God daily with the intent to obey, not merely to accumulate knowledge for preaching.

Live This Year Fixing Your Eyes On Jesus - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 1, 2020 · 31m
The speaker encourages a yearly spiritual checkup to ensure continuous progress in the Christian life. He draws parallels between the temptation in the Garden of Eden and modern temptations, warning against believing the devil's lies, such as that sin is not punished or that one can be like God. The central message is that true transformation and becoming like Christ must come through personal choice and direct connection with God, not through human mediators or false teachings.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - A Billionaire Leaving All His Riches
Zac Poonen · Apr 1, 2020 · 3m 50s
The speaker uses the illustration of a billionaire choosing to live and work with the limited resources of the poor in a slum to explain Jesus' life on earth. Just as the billionaire limited himself to the means of the poor, Jesus, despite having immense divine resources, lived using the resources and means available to the people, demonstrating how we can follow Him into a godly life.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - Set Your Mind On Things Above
Zac Poonen · Apr 1, 2020 · 5m
The central message warns against setting one's mind on earthly things, particularly money, which can become an idol and lead to spiritual failure. The speaker uses the analogy of a rubber band to illustrate that while Christians must engage with earthly responsibilities, their focus must ultimately spring back to heavenly things and God's Word. True discipleship means prioritizing God's kingdom and righteousness in all aspects of life.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - The Blackboard Of Encouragement
Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 1m 3s
The speaker advises that before correcting a brother, one must first offer encouragement. He uses the analogy of a blackboard: encouragement builds the board, allowing correction to be visible, whereas criticizing without prior encouragement is like writing in thin air that the person cannot see.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - The Blessing Of Abraham
Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 2m 13s
The central message is that the blessing of Abraham, which promises that all families of the earth will be blessed through one, is received when a person is filled with the Holy Spirit. This fullness is not primarily about speaking in tongues or physical healing, but rather equipping the believer to be a blessing to every family and person they encounter. The speaker compares this blessing to a noticeable, heavenly perfume that permeates every place the believer goes.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - The Cup That Jesus Drank
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. Ultimately, Jesus chose to drink the cup of broken fellowship to save Zacchaeus from eternal hell, highlighting the profound, never-to-be-lost wonder of God's love.

Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 1m 56s
The secret to remaining humble is to walk with Jesus Christ daily. The speaker emphasizes that by starting the day by connecting with Jesus, one can maintain a spirit of humility and brokenness. He encourages the audience to seek this constant companionship with Christ, as it prevents pride and keeps God's grace upon one's life.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - Three Spiritual Marriages
Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 6m
The sermon uses the metaphor of three 'marriages' to illustrate spiritual progress: first, being bound to the old self; second, being bound to the law, which demands impossible perfection; and finally, being married to Christ. While Christ's standards are also high, the key difference is that He works *with* us as co-workers, offering grace and partnership rather than simply demanding flawless adherence to rules.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - Two Types Of Christians
Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 1m 26s
The speaker illustrates two types of Christians using an analogy of exam scores. One type is content with simply knowing their sins are forgiven and heading to heaven, while the other is deeply concerned with perfecting their character, such as confessing small bitternesses against others. The speaker suggests that the second type, who seeks an indestructible life through self-examination, is the one who will build the church.

Zac Poonen Illustrations - We Bring Nothing Into The World And Take Nothing When We Leave
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.

Zac Poonen · Mar 31, 2020 · 1m 12s
The speaker uses the analogy of an angel trying to teach swimming to illustrate that Jesus's divinity makes Him unattainable to follow in a literal sense. He emphasizes that because Jesus is our forerunner and the author and finisher of our faith, we are called to follow Him by running the race toward Him.

The Jealousy of God - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Mar 30, 2020 · 40m
The central message is that God's jealousy is not about controlling our actions or service, but about demanding exclusive, total devotion of our spirit and heart. True discipleship means placing Christ above all other interests—including family, career, or even good works—as if one were a bride whose heart belongs only to her husband. This exclusive love is the fundamental aspect of the New Covenant.

The speaker urges the audience to seek the Lord and call upon Him while they are alive, emphasizing that there will be a time when God cannot be found. He draws from Isaiah 55:6 and 2 Corinthians 6:2 to stress the urgency of seeking God's presence. Furthermore, he advises believers to take diligent time to ensure their calling and election are solid by adding virtue, knowledge, and temperance to their faith.

Zac Poonen · Mar 29, 2020 · 2m 15s
The sermon emphasizes the believer's need to live under the guidance and power of the Holy Spirit rather than adhering strictly to the law. It contrasts the limitations of legalism with the freedom found in Spirit-led living. The core message is a call to walk by the Spirit's power.

The Sermon On The Mount (with Tamil translation) - Zac Poonen Illustrations
Zac Poonen · Mar 29, 2020 · 6m
The speaker argues that the Sermon on the Mount presents a standard far higher than the Old Testament Law, demanding internal transformation rather than mere outward adherence. He contrasts the law's prohibitions (e.g., don't murder) with Jesus' teachings (e.g., don't get angry), emphasizing that true discipleship requires following Jesus' radical standard, which is narrower and harder to walk than simply keeping religious traditions. The core message is that many Christians mistake outward observance for genuine discipleship, failing to embrace the challenging path taught by Christ.

Live this Year Fixing Your Eyes on Jesus - Zac Poonen - January 1, 2020
Zac Poonen · Mar 26, 2020 · 31m
The message encourages a yearly spiritual checkup, urging believers to progress in their Christian walk by examining past failures. Drawing parallels to the temptation in Genesis, the speaker warns against the devil's lies—specifically that sin won't be punished or that one can be like God. True spiritual growth requires recognizing that Christ is the sole mediator between God and man, and our ultimate calling is to be conformed to Christ's character of humility and love, not to rule over others.

Bobby McDonald - Being Like A Young Bride In A Married Land
Bobby McDonald · Mar 21, 2020 · 5m
The sermon uses the metaphor of a young bride to illustrate the ideal relationship with God. The central message is the need to maintain the initial eagerness and devotion of a young bride, rather than becoming complacent or distracted by worldly things. The speaker emphasizes that believers must be vigilant to catch unfaithfulness in their hearts early, recognizing that true devotion means finding God as the ultimate refuge.

The Jealousy of God - Zac Poonen - March 20, 2020
Zac Poonen · Mar 21, 2020 · 40m
The central message is that God's jealousy, as referenced in scripture, demands exclusive devotion—that the spirit must belong entirely to Him. True discipleship is not measured by activities, service, or good works, but by having no place in the heart for anything or anyone other than Christ. This requires a fervent, all-consuming love that makes Christ the absolute center of one's life.
