Summary
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant style of preaching, which involved standing, with the New Covenant style, which is likened to a family gathering where the head sits at the table. He emphasizes that the goal of the church is not merely to present sermons or gather accolades, but to build a family where God can dwell. Ultimately, the central focus must be on knowing the heart of God through deep scripture study, as this preserves the true glory of the Lord in the church.

The speaker emphasizes that the true goal of Christian ministry is not merely presenting correct doctrines or sermons, but building a family where God can dwell. He draws parallels between Jesus teaching in a family setting (sitting) versus Old Testament prophets standing, arguing that the New Covenant church should embody the spirit of a family. Ultimately, preserving the glory of the Lord requires studying scripture not for knowledge, but to see and feel the heart of God, making Christ the center of the church's life.
