The New Covenant Spirit of Decreasing & Revelation from Christ — Santosh P & David L — May 11, 2025
Summary
The sermon contrasts the Old Covenant, where God promised to increase the kingdom, with the New Covenant, which is characterized by the believer decreasing so that Christ's government may endlessly increase. The speaker uses the analogy of a pencil to illustrate that as the pencil writes more (the mission increases), it gets smaller (the self decreases). This principle of self-emptying is presented as the hallmark of the new covenant life, exemplified by Paul's willingness to be afflicted and diminished for Christ's life to be manifested.

He Will Make Them Know His Covenant - Santosh Poonen - October 4, 2015
Santosh Poonen · Oct 4, 2015
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant with the New Covenant, emphasizing that Jesus represents the Word becoming flesh, which is a profound shift from the previous law. He warns against adopting an 'old Covenant mindset' in the New Covenant, cautioning that defining one's relationship with God by outward actions, possessions, or even specific spiritual gifts can be deceptive. True New Covenant life is defined by internal transformation initiated by God.
