In this sermon, the preacher focuses on the fable of the tree mentioned in Judges' Capital Night. He first examines the historical facts presented in the passage and then explores the foreshadowing of prophetical events. The preacher emphasizes the importance of understanding the true spirit of rule according to God, rather than arbitrary and despotic rule. He highlights three features of this godly rule: a consciousness of God-given capacity, an unholy alliance between religion and evil forces, and the existence of an apostate mass willing to make a covenant with the enemy. The sermon encourages listeners to reflect on these lessons and be prepared to obey the word of the Lord.
