How Jesus Lived Under Grace -- Zac Poonen -- August 22, 2021
Summary
The speaker argues that grace is often misunderstood, asserting that it is not merely unmerited favor but a condition under which sin cannot rule. He uses Jesus' life on earth as an example, noting that Jesus lived by example, not by exercising his divine power. True grace, according to the speaker, is received by the humble, as scripture teaches that God opposes the proud. Therefore, overcoming sin requires embracing humility and acknowledging that one's ability to live righteously is dependent on God's grace.

The speaker corrects common misunderstandings about divine grace, arguing that it is not merely unmerited favor but a condition for living rightly, as exemplified by Jesus. He teaches that Jesus lived by relying on the grace of God, not his divine power, and that when a person is under grace, sin cannot rule over them. Ultimately, the speaker asserts that consistent humility, as taught in James 4:6, is the prerequisite for receiving God's grace.
