The sermon theme is discerning true apostles by their validation through God's power and miracles, referencing Christ and the apostles as examples. It emphasizes knowing only Christ crucified, as Paul did, and contrasts this with Nero's destructive reign and scapegoating of Christians. The takeaway is to hold to the true gospel and the authority of God's messengers, distinguishing them by divine authentication.
