Piggin speaks on Solomon's temptation of relying on his own intelligence, rather than on God, from 1 Kings 4:20-28, and 10:14-29. He shows that there is history, propaganda and what God wants us to believe. Piggin argues that the historical accounts are pointed at Solomon, and shows that these are self-serving systems that leads to destruction. He compares this to Australia's dependance on the government. Piggin questions whether Solomon's efficency was rich towards himself or towards God, calling on his audience to also critique their desires. He shows that God is not fooled by appearances. Piggin explores Solomon's motivation and who he is serving. He compares this to church and work programs, and shows that the system is not the solution. Piggin challenges the audience to consider what Christianity can do for the good of Australia.
