A Firm Grip on the Christian Life: 4: The Way of the Cross - Zac Poonen - November 1, 2009
Part of Zac Poonen Sermons · 282 of 434
Summary
The speaker emphasizes that true holiness and spiritual growth require continuous, free choice, arguing that God cannot force repentance or spiritual fullness. He uses the example of Adam's test and Jesus' choice in Gethsemane to illustrate that genuine commitment involves a conscious decision, not just automatic programming. Understanding the depth of Christ's sacrifice—being forsaken by the Father—is crucial for a personal realization of His love.

Zac Poonen - A Solid Grip On The Christian Life (5) The Daily Cross
Zac Poonen · Aug 19, 2019
The central message is that following Jesus requires a daily commitment to taking up one's own cross, which means denying self-will. The speaker emphasizes that true discipleship is not merely believing in Christ's sacrifice but actively choosing to follow Him daily, mirroring Jesus' own life. This daily self-denial is presented as the key to a life free from sin and the grip of the devil.
