The sermon centers on the redemptive power of Christ's crucifixion as the ultimate fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham, revealing that salvation comes not through adherence to the law but through faith alone. It emphasizes that Christ, by becoming a curse on the cross—fulfilling Deuteronomy's warning that 'cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree'—fully bore the penalty of sin for all who believe, thereby redeeming both Jews and Gentiles from the curse of the law and the original curse of Adam's disobedience. Through a detailed examination of Scripture, the preacher underscores the infinite worth and divine-human nature of Christ, whose substitutionary sacrifice was both costly and complete, securing eternal redemption for all who trust in Him. The message culminates in a telescopic view of redemptive history, showing how Calvary's tree reverses Eden's failure, restoring access to the tree of life and establishing Christ as the second Adam who perfectly obeyed where the first failed. Ultimately, the sermon calls believers to rest in the finished work of Christ, to reject all attempts to add to His sacrifice, and to live in the joy and assurance of a salvation secured by grace alone.

The sermon centers on the stark contrast between life under the law and life through faith in Christ, drawing from Galatians 3 to reveal that all who rely on their own obedience to the law are under its curse, for no one can perfectly keep every commandment at every moment. It emphasizes the impossibility of justification by works, exposing the futility of human effort—even the most devout—when measured against God's perfect standard, and underscores that even one sin renders a person guilty of breaking the entire law. In contrast, the sermon exalts Jesus Christ as the only one who perfectly fulfilled the law in every detail, moment by moment, and thus became the curse-bearer so that the blessing of Abraham might come to the nations through faith. The message calls all listeners—whether self-righteous or spiritually weary—to abandon the futile pursuit of merit and instead embrace Christ alone as the complete and sufficient Savior, whose finished work on the cross secures eternal blessing for all who believe.
