Summary
Zac Poonen emphasizes that apart from Christ, all human effort amounts to nothing, using John 15:5 as the foundation. He illustrates how works done without dependence on God may appear impressive but are ultimately worthless (wood, hay, and stubble), while only Spirit-empowered works endure for eternity. Poonen challenges believers to examine their true motives and inner attitudes, particularly regarding the love of money, and to recognize their complete dependence on God in all areas of life, ministry, and service.
