Wondering where to start in the wealth of treasure...Yes it is a wealth of treasure, may I humbly suggest that you start with two very good series of sermons that are classic Sparks, they deal with entering the rest of Christ and with coming into the full purpose of God for our lives so that the life of Christ may flow to those around us.The two series of sermons are;Vocational Fellowship(6 part series)Ye Are Come to Zion(8 part series)In Christ,Ron
What is Vocational Fellowship about?Interesting title.Grace,Doug
From what I have heard/read by Bro. Sparks. To me one of the best is the series on "Men whose eyes have seen the King". Josiah

It is really good. I am just finished part 4. There is some wonderful and precious truths in this series and each sermon builds on the previous sermon.I second this recommend.
Do any of you know which of Spark's sermons United 4 Truth used for the Revival Hymn?Thanks
Truth in the inward partsHighly recommended
Dear everyone,Taco is right, this is a very sobering message!Now you can read it as you listen to it.Manfred
Taco and Manfred:Taco, This message is indeed dynamite -- with shoutings of “Grace, grace!” (“Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it” Zech. 4:7) Thanks so much for sharing it.Manfred,The written transcript is a great blessing. It appears to end at about 27:45 of the recorded message which continues a few minutes longer in which TAS says:“Well, I think that’s all that I dare take time to say on this matter this morning But we ought to leave it at the point where we do recognize that God has provided for this in sending the Holy Spirit: ‘When He, the Spirit of Truth is come….’ It’s all a matter of the Holy Spirit as Lord within us. Having His place as absolute Lord. Over intellect, over our own moral pride, conceit, satisfaction. “Oh, let me come back where I started: The Holy Spirit will take this thing right down, thank God. Thank God. “Oh, what are you hoping in? Are you hoping in something in yourself, the man in Psalm 1? Or are you hoping in the law and the ritual and the ceremonies and the sacrifices--man in Psalm 32? And yes, you get God’s mercy and grace there if you can satisfy Him on either of those grounds at all-- there’s a blessing. But, God is not going to stop there. And thank God He doesn’t.“Do I say too terrible a thing when I say that God will bring us to the place of complete despair on all other grounds than His mercy in order that He might reach His end, reach His end, which is His own satisfaction in us-- that no flesh should glory in His presence. He that glorieth shall glory in the Lord. So our Psalm is of mercy and of grace, boundless beyond, beyond anything that ever has been provided for in the old economy. It is provided for in Jesus Christ.”Anyone who is blessed by this message, will find reverberations of it in Art Katz’ book, The Spirit of Truth. http://benisrael.org/OnlineBooks/spirit_of_truth/contents_SoT.htmWith T. Austin-Sparks and Art Katz, it’s a matter of ‘Deep calling unto deep’ -- which happens when the words are coming out of the mouths of crucified men -- not speaking their own words, but the Word of God, which comes out of His mouth.Roger
Roger,The transcript is the full content of the booklet published by Emmanuel Church. They may have felt led not to include the last bit. But this does not take anything away from the force of this message!Manfred
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, hope maybe others will give it a listen as well, you got my interest...Also, sorry Stephen, didn't see this request before regarding the Revival Hymn, at work right now but will see if I can't do some diging around later.
Manfred,Thanks for the clarification. I listened to the message this morning and was so impressed that I decided to transcribe a part of it so I might give a taste of it here at SI.I didn't have much time, so I decided to start near the end, summarizing the first part. Took several hours, and when I returned to SI I found your contribution.The amazing thing is that I began almost precisely where the Emmanuel Church people left off.We should never be astonished at anything our God does, but I don't think I'll ever get over how He works. (And to tell the TRUTH, I'm kind of glad that I won't!). :-)Roger
Ron, Adam, Mike and others--Some time ago Mike (crsschk) expressed an interest in looking for audio messages which would link up with written transcipts.But Ye Are Come Unto Mount Zion is one such instance. Mike, I have found it worthwhile to read and listen at the same time. It can bring a message so much more "alive". And it gives time to think about it.The book may be found at the usual austin-sparks.net website, and it is available also from Emmanuel Church (address under "Resources" at the same place).R.
