Phil Beach Jr. addresses the issues of division and carnality within the Corinthian church, emphasizing the importance of understanding one's role as a servant of Christ and steward of God's mysteries. He highlights how the Corinthians' failure to properly examine, judge, and praise led to divisions and a loss of focus on the centrality of the cross. Paul reminds them that true judgment comes from the Lord, not from human standards or preferences. The sermon calls for believers to recognize their unity in Christ and to avoid elevating one minister over another based on personal biases. Ultimately, the message encourages a return to the core of the Gospel and a focus on Christ rather than on individual personalities.

In this sermon, the preacher tells a story about a young man who is eager to experience the power of God. However, he gets distracted by worldly pleasures and neglects to apply the blood of the lamb to the doorpost, symbolizing his lack of commitment to God. The preacher emphasizes the importance of playing to please God rather than ourselves. He urges the congregation to seize the opportunity for salvation and shares his own personal journey of searching for fulfillment before finally accepting Jesus as his savior.
