Priesthood and Life

by T. Austin-Sparks

Date messages given unknown. Edited and supplied by the Golden Candlestick Trust.

We are all, from God's standpoint, intended to be priests... we are intended to be ministers of Life, divine Life, God's own Life to others who are needing that Life. You and I, if we have really come into the hand of God, into the grip of the Holy Spirit, are every day of our lives being made priests and kings. We are spiritually coming to the throne every day if we are in the hands of the Holy Spirit. And any reigning with Christ or sitting down with Him in His throne will but be the consummation of a spiritual process and not some sudden act by appointment. Beloved, that which you and I are going through under the hand of God in these lives of ours on this earth is explained by these two words: priesthood and the throne.
