Horatius Bonar emphasizes that the central theme of all prophecy is Jesus Christ, asserting that the Holy Spirit inspires prophets to testify about Him. He explains that the Bible, history, Psalms, and prophecies all point to Jesus, who is the answer to humanity's deepest needs. Bonar highlights Jesus' dual role as both the subject of prophecy and the one who fulfills it through His work as Prophet, Priest, and King. He calls for believers to search the Scriptures for Jesus and to bear witness to His glory, especially in a world that often overlooks Him. Ultimately, Bonar urges the Church to boldly proclaim the testimony of Jesus as the spirit of prophecy.

T. Austin-Sparks emphasizes the transformation of Christianity from its original spiritual essence to a more formal and institutionalized structure by the end of the apostolic age. He highlights the Apostle Paul's letters to Timothy as a call to recover the true nature of the Church, which is a spiritual entity governed by the Holy Spirit, rather than a mere organization. Sparks argues that the Church exists to embody the testimony of Jesus, demonstrating His living presence and victory over death. He stresses the importance of viewing the Church from Heaven's perspective, where it is seen as a unified body of believers rather than divided sects. Ultimately, the Church's mission is to express the nature of Christ and maintain the testimony of Jesus in a world that seeks to undermine it.
