    T. Austin-Sparks emphasizes the revolutionary nature of the Church's recognition, which must stem from a spiritual crisis rather than mere tradition. He discusses the concept of Divine Discontent, highlighting that true spiritual progress arises from an inward dissatisfaction with the status quo, leading individuals to seek a deeper connection with God. The sermon stresses that the Church should not merely be a gathering but a response to God's dissatisfaction, embodying the fullness of Christ. Sparks warns against the intrusion of natural man into the spiritual realm, asserting that the Cross must govern the Church's foundation and expression. Ultimately, he calls for a community of crucified individuals, led by the Holy Spirit, to reflect the true essence of the Church.
