"That They May All Be One, Even As We Are One" - Volume 1

by T. Austin-Sparks

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’ prayer in John 17, Austin-Sparks explores the unity Christ desires for His people: that they may be one by being brought into fellowship with the Father and the Son. Through the Lord’s Table, the kingdom parables, Israel’s story, and the work of the Holy Spirit, he calls readers beyond outward religious forms to spiritual understanding, worship in spirit and truth, and a life together shaped by Christ’s presence and pattern. First through Twenty-Second Meeting, Manila Philippines, 1964.
