Arno Clemens Gaebelein preaches about the alarming increase in the consumption of cigarettes and intoxicants, despite the efforts of reformers and prohibitionists, revealing the nation's moral decline and the ignorance of God's Word predictions. He also addresses lawlessness, violence, and murder, exemplified by the McNamara brothers' confession and the dangerous influence of Socialism in inciting class war. Gaebelein warns about the solemn lessons learned from the Titanic disaster, emphasizing God's warning to a boastful and defiant age. He discusses the rise of Socialism in Sunday schools, the spread of Socialism principles, and the hatred of the rich among the youth. Additionally, he touches on the hunger crisis in China, the socializing of Christianity, the increasing unrest in the world, the suffragettes' fire losses, the white slave traffic, the food problems, the influence of moving-picture shows on youth, and the rise of a socialistic preacher who became a mayor and faced criticism from his congregation.
