The text for this last sermon is Luke 8:35 (Audio):

"Then they went out to see what was done, and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind."

The following quote is from Pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892):

"Christ is meek, as opposed to the ferocity and bigotry of zealots. Take for example the false prophet Muhammad. The strength of his cause lies in the fact that he is not meek. He presents himself  before those he claims as disciples and says: 'Take my yolk upon you and learn of me, for I am neither meek nor lowly in heart; I will have no patience with you; there is my creed, or there is the scimitar. Death or conversion, whichever you please."
