God's Method and Means in Times of Special Peril

by T. Austin-Sparks

Transcribed from conference messages given in August 1955. The spoken form has been retained verbatim. This series was also published as Part 2 of a book in 1956 by Witness and Testimony publishers titled "God's Reactions to Man's Defections".

God’s Method and Means in Times of Special Peril - how God meets particular perils at particular times. There are such times in every connection, the Bible contains many times of particular and peculiar peril in the life of the people of God and shows us how God moved to meet the situation at such times. And there are such times in the life of the Lord’s people continually, times when things have come to a turning point, a crisis. That is true in the history of the church again and again, even since New Testament times, and it is true in the life of any company of the Lord’s people locally when, for some reason, the situation is critical. A turning point has been reached. And at such times it is very important to know how the Lord would meet such situations and such need.
