3.Having Authority Over Satan - Zac Poonen
Summary
Jesus taught that the church built on the confession of Christ is invincible to the powers of spiritual death, provided it has strong, appointed leadership. The speaker emphasizes that the church is meant to be a place of conflict where it always wins by following God's way, and that discipline, as taught in Matthew 18, is a loving process aimed at winning back a brother who has sinned.

Zac Poonen · Jun 9, 2014
The speaker emphasizes that the church built by Christ is indestructible by Satan, which requires strong, plural leadership rather than a one-man pastor system. He details that the church is meant to be a place of conflict and spiritual battle, requiring believers to proclaim Jesus' lordship to overcome opposition. Furthermore, the speaker stresses that discipline, as taught in Matthew 18, is a loving process aimed at winning a brother back, and if all else fails, the brother must be treated like an unbeliever.
