Summary
Zac Poonen contrasts God's earthly goals for man under the Old Covenant with His spiritual goal under the New Covenant—to make believers like Jesus Christ. He challenges listeners to test whether they have truly entered the New Covenant by asking if they are more disturbed by sin than sickness and whether they value and pursue heavenly riches over earthly ones. He emphasizes that God controls circumstances, wealth, and temptation to keep believers on track toward Christlikeness, empowered by the Holy Spirit.
