27th December 2015 - Settling Accounts With God and Man - Zac Poonen

The speaker emphasizes that understanding the Old Testament is crucial because it provides lessons from the mistakes of others, preventing us from repeating those errors. He stresses that God is almighty but does not despise anyone, contrasting this with the devil who despises all. True spiritual growth is marked by decreasing judgment of others and increasing humility, which is evidenced by bearing fruit in one's life. Finally, he warns against self-condemnation, reminding listeners that they are bought with Christ's blood and have inherent value before God.
