In this sermon, the speaker describes a meeting where evidential material was presented and questions were answered about heaven. Many people believed and confessed their deeds, and those who practiced occult arts brought their books together and burned them. The speaker suggests that this is an accurate picture of the state of Christianity in America and around the world, as Satan has infiltrated the ranks of God's people with demonic influences. The sermon also references biblical passages, such as Mark 13, where Jesus warns against false prophets and the signs and wonders they perform to deceive people.

Smith warns against the trivialization of these practices, emphasizing the potential for demonic possession and the loss of control that can result from dabbling in the occult. He urges believers to shun all forms of occultism, seek forgiveness for past involvement, and rely on the power of Jesus Christ for victory over darkness.
