Zac Poonen - Judging Ourselves at The Breaking of Bread
Summary
Zac Poonen teaches that approaching the Lord's table requires honest self-examination and a humble, servant attitude toward others, exemplified by Jesus washing His disciples' feet. Rather than judging others' failings, Christians should examine themselves, reject superiority based on education or status, and recognize the fundamental equality of all believers in the body of Christ.

Zac Poonen - Judging Ourselves at the Lord's Table
Zac Poonen · Aug 6, 2024
Zac Poonen teaches that partaking of the Lord's Table requires honest self-judgment in two dimensions: vertically with God (examining our conscience for hidden sin and unrepentance) and horizontally with others in the church body (ensuring we have reconciled with fellow believers). He emphasizes that each person must judge only themselves, not others, and that this practice protects us from God's discipline and allows us to participate worthily in the bread and cup.
