Two Parts of the Word of the Cross - Zac Poonen - December 8, 2013
Summary
The word of the cross has two parts: one for unbelievers and one for believers. For unbelievers, it is the message that salvation is free through Christ's death and resurrection, which is foolishness to them because they prefer to earn forgiveness through works. For believers, the second part is the call to a god-centered life, recognizing that true discipleship means submitting one's will entirely to God's will, rather than merely living a morally upright, man-centered life.

The speaker explains that salvation involves three tenses—past, present, and future—and that the Word of the Cross is central to this process. He argues that the Word of the Cross is considered foolishness by both unbelievers and many believers who are content with a superficial understanding of faith. True salvation requires accepting that Christ's work is sufficient, which means turning from self-centeredness to being God-centered, as exemplified by Jesus' purpose to do the will of the Father.
