Redeeming God's Family

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 Jesus’ words in John 14, “He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father,” Austin-Sparks traces God’s purpose to form a family that shares His life and reigns with Him, and how Christ’s redeeming work brings that purpose into view. From Isaiah 53 and Hebrews 2, he also considers the paradox of human greatness and sin, calling readers to see God’s revelation of both Father and man in Christ.
