A.W. Tozer emphasizes that truth is not something we must search for, but rather a Person—Jesus Christ—who actively seeks us. He illustrates this through biblical examples, showing that God consistently takes the initiative in seeking out humanity, from Adam in the Garden to the prophets of the Old Testament and ultimately in the New Testament with Jesus. Tozer highlights that while many sought Jesus for physical needs, few sought Him for the truth, underscoring the reality that the truth is pursuing us, yet many do not respond. The sermon calls attention to the divine pursuit of lost souls and the importance of recognizing and responding to this truth.

C.H. Spurgeon emphasizes the extraordinary grace of God in seeking out the lost, illustrating that while many may seek what is lost, God goes further by seeking us out from the depths of our sin and despair. He compares our condition to precious gold lost in filth, highlighting the relentless pursuit of God as He searches for us amidst our struggles. Spurgeon marvels at the infinite love and power of God, who does not give up on His chosen ones, ensuring that they are not only sought but effectively found and restored. He concludes with a call to praise God for His sovereign love that grants us the title of 'Sought out.'
