Zac Poonen - UNDERSTANDING THE NEW COVENANT Part 9: Light on Satan's Tactics
Summary
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant and the New Covenant, emphasizing that under the New Covenant, believers are not ruled by sin but by grace, as stated in Romans 6:14. A key difference highlighted is the nature of spiritual warfare: the New Testament teaches that our struggle is against evil rulers and powers, not against 'flesh and blood' (human enemies). To overcome Satan's schemes, one must avoid arguing with people over earthly or doctrinal matters.

The sermon contrasts the Old Covenant, which was only up to Pentecost, with the New Covenant established by God. Key differences include that the Old Testament did not have the concept of cleansing from sin, whereas the New Covenant, through the blood of Jesus, cleanses sin completely. The speaker emphasizes that while God forgives sins confessed through faith (1 John 1:9), the sin of unforgiveness towards others is worse than adultery or murder, as it brings all past sins to account.
