Zac Poonen - The Spirit Reveals Jesus through His word - SPC2
Part of Zac Poonen · 345 of 379
Summary
The Holy Spirit is necessary to truly understand scripture, transforming a mere scribe into a disciple who receives life from the Word. The speaker argues that the Old Covenant law, while good, was fundamentally flawed because it could not bring people into a living relationship with God. True fulfillment of God's requirements, especially the tenth commandment against coveting, is only possible through being filled with the Holy Spirit, which empowers believers to live according to the Spirit rather than merely attempting to keep the law.
