Looking at Jesus' Example — Zac Poonen — April 16, 2023
Summary
The sermon contrasts the miracles of the Old Testament with the superior provision found in Jesus Christ. The speaker argues that while Old Testament miracles were external and did not change inner lives, following Jesus—the author and perfecter of faith—is far better. The secret to the Christian life is keeping one's eyes fixed on Jesus, especially remembering what he endured on the cross, which defeated Satan.

The speaker advises listeners to follow Jesus' example, particularly regarding withdrawal when facing danger, rather than attempting to display bravery. He cautions against the modern tendency to overemphasize physical healing, noting that Jesus' miracles were attestations of his divine nature, not a model for imitation. Ultimately, the message emphasizes looking carefully at Jesus' life—specifically his non-quarreling nature and his quiet, powerful ministry—as the true standard for Christian living.
