Rivers of Living Water

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’ promise in John 7:37–39, “Rivers of Living Water” traces the river of life through Eden, Ezekiel’s house and altar, and Revelation’s throne, showing its relation to the Holy Spirit and the risen Christ. It presents abundant life as God’s provision for those who come to Christ, and calls the reader to drink, live by the Spirit, and become a channel of life to others. First published by "Witness and Testimony Publishers" in 1957. This version is from the book published by "Witness and Testimony Literature Trust".
