Being Servants of Christ's Body | A Word to Elders | Zac Poonen
Summary
The central message emphasizes that Christians are called to be perfect, specifically by loving enemies and praying for persecutors, as commanded by Jesus. This requires a conscious, willful choice to forgive others, even when it is difficult, because unforgiveness hinders spiritual life and hearing God's word. The speaker stresses that true righteousness is done privately, not for public recognition.

Being Servants of Christ's Body: A Word to Elders - Zac Poonen - May 2, 2020
Zac Poonen · May 5, 2020
The central message emphasizes that Christians must strive for perfection, specifically by loving enemies, doing good to those who hate them, and praying for persecutors, as commanded by Jesus. This requires a clear conscience, as unforgiveness prevents one from being forgiven and hearing God's word. The speaker stresses that forgiveness is a deliberate exercise of the will, not merely a feeling, drawing parallels to Jesus' forgiveness on the cross.
