In this sermon, the speaker emphasizes the importance of the 40 days that Jesus spent on earth after His resurrection. He explains that during this time, Jesus trained His disciples to shift their focus from external things to internal revelation, from the flesh to the Holy Spirit, and from the law to life. The speaker shares a personal anecdote about a turbulent airplane ride to illustrate the need for Christians to rise above fear and rely on the Holy Spirit. He concludes by urging the audience to prioritize their personal encounter with the Lord and the experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit.

Zac Poonen contrasts the attitudes of Peter and Judas Iscariot towards money and correction. Peter, when called by Jesus, immediately left his fishing business to follow Him, prioritizing eternal wealth over earthly riches. In contrast, Judas Iscariot, although chosen as an apostle, failed the test of faithfulness by stealing money meant for the poor and betraying Jesus for personal gain. Peter embraced correction from Jesus, recognizing it as words of eternal life, while Judas, offended by correction, ultimately chose to betray Jesus. The sermon emphasizes the importance of humility in receiving correction and the eternal consequences of our responses.
