Summary
Zac Poonen teaches that maintaining a clear conscience is essential to assurance of being in the resurrection of the righteous. True salvation involves not just initial belief but ongoing obedience and reconciliation; it requires immediate confession of all sins (in thought, word, deed, attitude, and motive) to God, asking forgiveness from those we've hurt, and forgiving all who have hurt us.
