Episode 83 The Holy Spirit came to create a new order
Why did God send the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost? How did
the working of God change on that day? Have we really comprehended
the significance to us of the Promise of the Father that brought
God within each believer? Today we continue with the ministry of T.
Austin-Sparks from Paul’s letter to the Galatians. Here is his
introduction:
This morning we come to what I feel to be one of the most important
messages that we have been giving. We have been seeing that the
Letter to the Galatians is a concentration of the great change
which took place with the coming of the Lord Jesus. That is, that
the coming of Christ into this world changed the dispensations, and
changed the whole nature of things. So that Christ stands as the
dividing of two whole systems. The whole system of Judaism which
had existed up to the time of His coming was set aside when He
came. From that time, as He said, a new order was introduced, and
that is represented by His repeated phrase, "The hour cometh and
now is." Now this morning, we are going to consider the essential
nature of that great divide. How the new dispensation and the new
order differs from the old. This is a matter of supreme importance
for us here this morning, and for all Christians if only they would
accept it, because Christianity as we know it has been largely
constituted on the old dispensation. The great difference between
the old and the new has not been fully recognized.
