2.Not A Servant But The Bride - Zac Poonen
Summary
The speaker cautions against misinterpreting scripture, using the Pharisees' twisting of divorce laws in Matthew 19 as a primary example. He argues that people often twist verses to suit their desires rather than following God's true will. Ultimately, he contrasts the old covenant's legalistic relationship with God to the new covenant's desired 'bridal relationship,' which requires a soft heart over a hard one.

Zac Poonen · Jan 30, 2014
The speaker emphasizes that the New Covenant has fundamentally higher standards than the Old Covenant, particularly regarding marriage. He uses the discussion of divorce in Matthew 19 to illustrate how Christians often misquote or misunderstand scripture by failing to cross-reference passages with the Old Testament. The central message is the necessity of careful, diligent study of scripture to avoid doctrinal error in all areas of life, especially marriage.
