John Nelson Darby emphasizes the distinction between being under the law and living in grace, explaining that Christ's death and resurrection freed believers from the law's condemnation. He argues that while the law reveals our responsibility, it does not define our relationship with God, as we are united with Christ who fulfilled the law. Darby warns that many Christians mistakenly place themselves under the law, which hinders their peace and understanding of redemption. He also reflects on the Epistle to the Philippians, highlighting the apostle's afflictions and the importance of grace in the church's struggles. Ultimately, he encourages believers to grasp the significance of Christ's resurrection to fully enjoy their new life in Him.

R.A. Torrey explores the significance of Jesus' appearances to His apostles after His resurrection, focusing on the initial encounter with the disciples when Thomas was absent, and later, His personal interaction with Thomas. The sermon emphasizes how Jesus brings peace to fearful hearts and the importance of faith, especially in the face of doubt, as exemplified by Thomas's initial unbelief and eventual declaration of faith. Torrey highlights that true belief comes from the Word of God rather than physical evidence, and he encourages believers to share their experiences of Christ with others. Ultimately, the message underscores that faith in Jesus as the Christ and Son of God is essential for eternal life.
