Summary
The central message is that the defining characteristic of the Church must be its mission to save those who are lost, encompassing both those outside the faith and those who have backslid within it. The speaker warns against allowing the focus on personal piety, discipleship, and fellowship to become self-centered, urging the congregation to maintain the passion and burden that drove Jesus to leave heaven for humanity. Ultimately, every believer, regardless of their current comfort level, is a missionary in their immediate surroundings.

Keep Yourselves in the Love of God - Santosh Poonen - December 31, 2017
Santosh Poonen · Jan 1, 2018
The sermon emphasizes that the church's purpose is to save the lost, echoing Jesus' declaration that he came to save what was lost. It stresses that true Christian love, as described in 1 Corinthians 13, is the essential characteristic, and this love must guide how believers confront sin in their community. Ultimately, the church must maintain a burden for the lost world around them, recognizing that God's joy is greatest over the one who returns.
