A collection of New Covenant teaching, gathered from publicly available YouTube sermons by Zac Poonen and related CFC messages.
The speaker discusses Paul's profound realization of his own sinfulness after growing closer to Jesus. Paul's deep understanding of sin, revealed by God, led him to view even minor sins, like speaking back to a high priest, as worse than heinous crimes. This illustrates the transformative power of knowing God's standard of holiness.

The speaker addresses the impossibility of forgetting sins when forgiving others, asserting that while memory is uncontrollable, one has control over their will to choose not to dwell on past wrongs. He then shifts to discussing the depth of the Atonement, arguing that the true price for sin is eternal separation from God, which only an infinite being (God) could pay. The speaker emphasizes that the greatest suffering Jesus endured was the three hours of being forsaken by the Father, which proves the depth of God's sacrifice.
