Questions & Answers - Zac Poonen - June 29, 2013
Part of Zac Poonen Sermons · 387 of 434
Summary
The speaker advises that approaching the Bible with humility, like a child, allows it to be a 'Tree of Life,' whereas a critical attitude treats it as a 'Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.' He uses Jesus' submission to his Father and to imperfect people like Joseph and Mary as an example of required submission in life, including to imperfect leaders. Furthermore, he teaches that sympathy must be Christ-like, encouraging believers to trust in God's sovereignty through verses like 1 Corinthians 10:13 and Romans 8:28, showing how even the worst events can work for good.

Knowing God the Father and His Values - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jul 11, 2022
The speaker argues that humanity's distorted sense of values stems from choosing the 'knowledge of good and evil' over the 'tree of life,' which is represented by Jesus Christ. True understanding of God's values, leading to eternal life, is not found merely through deep scriptural knowledge or adherence to rituals, but through a personal relationship with Jesus. The speaker warns that valuing things highly in the world, such as money or even religious knowledge, can be detestable to God.
