A Kingdom That Cannot Be Shaken

Theodore Austin-Sparks (1888–1971) was a British evangelist and author. Born in London, he became a Christian at seventeen while listening to street-preachers in Glasgow, and was ordained a Baptist minister at twenty-four. In 1926 he left the denomination and, with like-minded Christians, founded a conference and training centre at Honor Oak in south-east London. From there he published the free magazine "A Witness and A Testimony" until his death, and his conference ministry took him across Europe, North America and Asia. He asked that his messages be shared freely and word for word. Source: Wikipedia (summarized; CC BY-SA)

About this book

Austin-Sparks reads Hebrews as a revelation of God’s purpose in “a kingdom that cannot be shaken,” opening with the coming age, Jesus as its eternal pattern, and believers already receiving its spiritual life. He connects the kingdom’s sure foundation with Christ’s righteousness and authority in God’s house, and calls Christians to leave spiritual infancy, turn from earthly shadows to heavenly realities, and press on to maturity.
