Speaker: Zac Poonen Title: Knowing God - Our Father, our Forerunner, and our Helper Date: March 15, 2020 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The central message is that Christians must live in a constant, moment-by-moment dependence on God, mirroring the life of a branch connected to a tree. This continuous connection, facilitated by the Holy Spirit in the New Covenant, is what allows believers to bear fruit. Furthermore, true strength in the last days comes not from personal effort or good works, but from resting entirely on the imputed righteousness of Christ, which defeats the devil's accusations of guilt.
