"But Ye Are Come to Mount Zion"

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

Opening with the crisis of changing dispensations in Hebrews, Austin-Sparks follows the contrast between Sinai and the believer’s coming to Mount Zion, the heavenly Jerusalem. He presents Zion as embodying the spiritual values of Jesus Christ and considers the kingdom that remains through a final shaking. The message calls readers to hear and obey God speaking in His Son, and to receive eyes opened to know Christ. Transcribed from conference messages given in 1969. This is a literal transcription, words which have been added for clarity are indicated by square brackets [].
