New Covenant Eldership - Zac Poonen - August 5, 2018
Part of Zac Poonen Sermons · 306 of 434
Summary
The speaker argues that the Old Covenant was abolished because God's ultimate plan required the Holy Spirit to dwell in man, which was impossible due to sin. He emphasizes that sin requires a definitive price, which Jesus paid on the cross. The New Covenant shifts the relationship from a governmental one to a familial one, where the church functions as the 'body of Christ'—a family where Christ is the head, requiring the cooperation of all members because no single human can perfectly manifest the glory of God.

Why the Old Covenant was Abolished - Zac Poonen - May 25, 2018
Zac Poonen · May 26, 2018
The speaker argues that many believers are living under the standards of the Old Covenant rather than the New Covenant established by Christ. He emphasizes that the New Covenant requires a deeper, ongoing transformation involving principles like rejoicing always and giving thanks in everything, which were not explicit commandments in the Old Testament. True Christian life requires continuous progression toward God's eternal purpose, which is to be conformed to the image of Christ through intimate fellowship with God.
