A.W. Tozer reflects on the contrasting perspectives of the seasons, particularly autumn, for those in and out of Christ. For the unsaved, autumn symbolizes impending doom and the end of life, while for Christians, it represents a time of preparation and peace, knowing they are secure in Christ. The sermon emphasizes the joy and assurance of salvation, as believers look forward to the resurrection and eternal life, free from the fears that accompany the changing seasons. Tozer encourages Christians to find comfort in their faith amidst life's uncertainties, trusting in the promise of eternal tomorrow.

To the man out of Christ, the fall of the year, in spite of its many charms, must surely bring with it a deep and hidden terror. For it speaks of the approaching end, the time when it may be said, ?The summer is ended, and we are not saved.? It would be good indeed if the autumn winds could preach to the lost soul of the brevity of life and the long winter ahead. The true Christian will not be saddened by the winds that herald the approach of winter. Like the wise ant he has made his preparation, and while the gusty tempest howls over him, he will sleep sweet in Christ while the circle of the heavens moves on toward the consummation of all things of which Moses and the prophets have spoken. Happy man who knows that everything is well with him and that he will be among the blessed in that day when the breath of Jesus, like a breeze of spring, shall stir the sleeping dead to life again after the long night.
