New Covenant Servants: 1.Motivated By Love - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · May 8, 2014
The speaker distinguishes between serving under the old covenant and serving under the new covenant. He explains that the old covenant operated on a basis of obedience to avoid curses and gain rewards, much like parenting. In contrast, the new covenant requires service motivated purely by love for Christ, as exemplified by Jesus's questioning of Peter. True service in the new covenant flows from an inner cleansing and relationship with the Holy Spirit, not merely adherence to external laws.
