Ultimately, it serves as a call to spiritual decision, urging unbelievers towards salvation through Christ and providing guidance for believers to live righteously and find victory.

The sermon highlights that the revelation of judgment is not a new concept, as it dates back to Enoch, the seventh from Adam. Enoch, who “walked with God,” prophesied about the Lord’s coming to execute judgment on the ungodly. This revelation was also given to other prophets like Moses and Daniel. The message states that God keeps a record of all ungodly deeds and that He is “angry with the wicked every day.” The sermon then presents a call to earnest repentance before this judgment comes. The story of Nineveh is used as an example of genuine repentance, where the king and his people humbled themselves and turned from their evil ways, and God in turn relented from the judgment He had planned. The message emphasises that God is more interested in granting forgiveness than in judging sinners.

Fearful judgment awaits those who commit sin to excess. This includes apostates who have “trodden under foot the Son of God” and reject the offer of salvation. The message warns against fearing those who can only kill the body and instead urges believers to fear God, who can cast both body and soul into hell.

The antichrist is mentioned as an example of one who “shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods” and will be judged for it.

In contrast, for those who are saved and sanctified, their speech is transformed. They are to avoid corrupt communication, bitterness, wrath, anger, and evil speaking, as these things grieve the Holy Spirit. Their speech should be “good to the use of edifying” and minister grace to others.

Those who remain unrepentant in their murmuring and complaining will face God’s speedy judgment. The Israelites who murmured were destroyed by serpents, and this serves as an admonition for believers today. God keeps destroyers away when people remain in His will.

Judgment will come to those who place their confidence in men instead of God, worshipping and serving the creature more than the Creator.

The sermon concludes by offering a contrast, stating that those who are meek, Christlike, and have their names written in heaven will experience supernatural joy. The fruit of the Spirit, such as love, joy, and peace, is a sign that a person is not condemned by the law.
