In this sermon, the preacher focuses on the warning against hardening one's heart. He emphasizes that falling away from a truly spiritual position to an external and sacramental system is a dangerous path. The preacher highlights the importance of knowing and standing on God's declared facts rather than relying on personal feelings. He also warns against psychical exaggerations and excesses, particularly the persistent longing for the ways of Egypt. The sermon references the book of Hebrews and the story of Moses and the Israelites in Egypt to illustrate these points.

In this sermon, the speaker emphasizes the importance of receiving God's testimony through His word, His Son, and the Holy Spirit. He compares this process to a sales pitch, where the goal is to make the listener say "yes" to each point. The speaker shares his personal experience of initially hearing the gospel but not truly understanding it until the Spirit of God revealed it to his heart. He also discusses the concept of the unpardonable sin, suggesting that it refers to a point where someone refuses to accept all five testimonies of God at once.

R.A. Torrey explores the concept of the unpardonable sin as presented in Mark 3:20-35, emphasizing how Jesus was misunderstood by both His friends and enemies. He highlights the eagerness of the crowds to hear Jesus, the accusations from the scribes claiming He was in league with the devil, and the painful misunderstanding from His own family. Torrey explains that the unpardonable sin, blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, stems from a hardened heart that refuses to repent, making it impossible for such individuals to seek forgiveness. Ultimately, he reassures that all who come to Christ will be received, contrasting this with the grave warning about the unpardonable sin. The sermon concludes with the affirmation that true kinship with Christ is found in obedience to God's will.
