The sermon explores the attribute of God being near. It discusses how nearness was experienced in the Garden of Eden but sin separates us from God. While the tabernacle, temple, and sacrificial system helped restore nearness, it ultimately became empty words and deeds. However, nearness was fully restored through Jesus, who draws people near to God. The sermon encourages earnestly desiring God's nearness.
