All That Jesus Taught (Bible Study – 8 of 80) - Zac Poonen
Summary
The speaker emphasizes that fulfilling the Great Commission requires teaching every single thing Jesus commanded, not just basic conversion. He draws heavily on Jesus' example of emptying himself of divine privileges—such as immunity to temptation or fatigue—to become fully relatable to humanity. This self-emptying was necessary so that when Jesus commanded us to 'follow me,' it was an example we could realistically emulate, making Him a relatable High Priest who sympathizes with our struggles.
