Bobby McDonald - The New Covenant Good Samaritan
Summary
The speaker emphasizes that the goal of Christians is to reflect Jesus by growing in personal purity and functioning corporately within the church. He draws parallels from the Good Samaritan parable, arguing that spiritually, people are often robbed and beaten by Satan, leaving them spiritually incapacitated. Therefore, the ministry of the Good Samaritan today involves prayer and encouragement—literally 'picking people up' and carrying them to safety.

The speaker emphasizes that the ultimate goal for Christians is to be a reflection of Jesus, which requires both personal purity and functioning within the local church. He stresses that true discipleship means centering one's entire life and prayers around God's will, rather than personal desires. Furthermore, he argues that the most valuable work on earth is building up the church, which is achieved through obedience and the breaking of one's own will.
