But Ye Are Come Unto Mount Zion
by
T. Austin-Sparks
Publisher's Preface
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ:
Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus! Again we come to
you, placing into your hands a series of messages given
by T. Austin-Sparks. Again, we are sure that you will
reap a great spiritual harvest from these messages shared
at a Bible conference not so many years ago. We find them
to be still fresh with the dew of the Spirit, and,
surely, they are “seed left over for
planting”
The reader should put himself in the place of one who is
attending a Bible conference and read this volume from
that vantage point. Also, it will be of great benefit to
the reader, before beginning this book, to read Hebrews
1:1–2 and Hebrews 12:18–29.
The punctuation used in preserving these messages from
tape was not used to adhere so much to the correctness of
English grammar, but was used, we trust, to facilitate
the spiritual message given: we were not so much thinking
of literary accuracy as we were praying to the Lord to
preserve and pass on the spiritual content of these
meetings by the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
“Strong meat” was, and is, given in
these sessions where “Zion gathered.”
We are sure there was much Holy Spirit conviction upon
these words as they were shared amongst the Lord’s
people, for it is a message of strong words concerning
the much-needed spiritual apprehension of Christ. There
is much here to encourage, to invigorate, and to
strengthen the Body of Christ as it walks in the truth: “Ye
have come to Mount Zion.” But, also, there is
much “shaking” in these messages: “the
removing of those things . . . as of things that are
made”; and, as our brother said to the brethren
at that conference then, so now we say to all who read:
“Be ready for a crisis.”
Your brethren in Christ
