26th January 2020 - You Can Begin Now To Live As Jesus Lived - Zac Poonen
Summary
The central message emphasizes that one's inherent being or character ('what you are') before the Lord is more crucial than the actions one performs for God. Drawing from Acts 1, the speaker points out that Jesus' ministry pattern was to first *be* something and then *do* things, suggesting that service without a foundational identity in Christ can lead to hypocrisy.

The central message is that one's being—the character and life lived—is more important to God than what one does for Him. Drawing from Acts 1:1, the speaker emphasizes that Jesus' ministry was characterized by what He *was* before what He *did*. Believers are called to live a life that reflects Christ's character first, allowing that life to naturally lead to service, rather than becoming hypocritical by focusing only on visible accomplishments.
