14. Body-Life And Not Individual Life - Zac Poonen
Part of Zac Poonen · 272 of 379
Summary
The speaker contrasts the individualistic fellowship of the Old Covenant with the corporate life of the New Covenant, emphasizing that true Christian fellowship requires more than just good relationships or psychology. He stresses that both individuals must accept the cleansing of Christ's blood for sin and crucify their old, sinful nature. This shared acceptance of the cross is what breaks down the inherent enmity in the flesh, allowing for genuine, barrier-free fellowship.

The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant, where ministry was often done by single individuals, with the New Covenant, which emphasizes fellowship and ministry in pairs. He details the components of a solid grip on the Christian life—God's love, the blood of Jesus, the Word, the Holy Spirit, taking up the cross, and building fellowship—and stresses that genuine, healthy disagreement within a fellowship is beneficial, providing a fuller view of the body of Christ.
