G. Campbell Morgan delivers a powerful sermon on 'The Message of Micah,' emphasizing the unmasking of false authority among civil, spiritual, and moral rulers who act for personal gain rather than the welfare of the people.

He calls for obedience to this true authority and encourages believers to live out and enforce His ideals while awaiting His return to establish perfect governance. The sermon ultimately underscores the importance of aligning with God's will to experience true peace and righteousness.
