Art Katz explores the significance of Zion as the city of God, emphasizing its importance to God and the church's need to understand and love it. He challenges believers to reflect on their relationship with Zion and the eternal purposes of the church, urging them to move beyond a privatized faith to a communal, sacrificial love for God's purposes. Katz warns against complacency and the dangers of worldly identification, calling for a church that stands for righteousness and supports the Jewish people in times of trouble. He highlights the need for a deeper engagement with the mysteries of faith, including sonship and bridal identity, and concludes with the joy that comes from recognizing that all blessings flow from God. The sermon calls for a radical commitment to the values of Zion and a prophetic voice in the world.

Phil Beach Jr. emphasizes the critical need for the church to align with God's original intention, as exemplified in the life of Abraham. He warns that deviation from God's word puts the church in danger of being set aside, and stresses the importance of a holy calling that reflects God's desires. The sermon highlights that judgment will begin in the house of God, focusing on the need for true believers to be distinguished from mere professors of faith. Beach calls for a recovery of the church's identity as a chosen generation, royal priesthood, and holy nation, urging believers to live in a way that honors Christ as Lord. Ultimately, he encourages a deep, transformative relationship with God that leads to a life fully surrendered to His will.
