Summary

The speaker draws lessons from the prophets, noting that each delivered a specific, necessary message, which was always to repent. He emphasizes that a true servant of God has a burden for the people, like Jeremiah, and that God's work often requires first 'plucking up, breaking down, destroying, and overthrowing' false ideas and traditions before building. He warns that attempting to build upon a flawed foundation will fail, urging believers to allow the Holy Spirit to dismantle unbiblical practices in their lives.
