Zac Poonen - Reverence for God and Forgiveness
Speaker: Zac Poonen Title: Reverence for God and Forgiveness Date: 09/20/2020 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The central message is that Christians must strive to be an exact reflection of Jesus by purifying their motives, ensuring all actions are done to the glory of God, not for human reputation. The speaker warns against self-justification, comparing it to the Pharisees, and emphasizes that true spiritual growth requires constant self-examination with a reverence for God. This reverence is distinct from fear and is the foundation of wisdom.
