Casting Away All Confidence In Self - Zac Poonen
Summary
The speaker argues that while the Old Covenant was fulfilled in Christ, understanding the Old Testament is crucial for grasping the New Testament. He emphasizes that the greatest barrier to experiencing God's presence is not merely overcoming specific sins like anger or dirty thoughts, but conquering one's inherent self-will, which is symbolized by the veil. True victory comes from denying one's self-will daily, allowing God to enter deeply into the heart.

The speaker emphasizes that the New Covenant is superior to the Old Covenant, arguing that true understanding means being more concerned with avoiding sin and escaping its power than merely escaping hell or going to heaven. He teaches that the greatest gift of the New Covenant is the ability to partake of God's divine nature, which leads to effortless victory over sin, contrasting this with the constant struggle of the old way. Ultimately, he stresses that apart from Christ, believers are incapable of anything.
