Building a New Covenant Home - Zac Poonen - May 26, 2018
Part of Zac Poonen Sermons · 315 of 434
Summary
The speaker argues that family life is given significantly more importance in the New Covenant compared to the Old Testament, where detailed laws regarding marital and family conduct are scarce. He points to the qualifications for an elder in 1 Timothy and Titus, noting the high standards required for a man to manage his own family well. Ultimately, the message is that the high value God places on family life—a theme absent in the Old Covenant—should guide believers' pursuit, regardless of whether they become elders themselves.

The speaker argues that a glorious family life is a key aspect of the new covenant, unlike the old covenant where family life was considered unimportant. He contrasts the standards for elders in the New Covenant (requiring good household management) with the Old Covenant, emphasizing that Christian commitment must manifest in both public preaching and private home life. The message concludes by contrasting the old covenant call to 'come and hear' with the new covenant call to 'come and see.'
