The Holy Spirit in Relation to the Glorified Christ

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

“The Holy Spirit in Relation to the Glorified Christ” explores how the Spirit’s work makes known the exalted Lord Jesus, whose name and rule unite what sin has disordered. Beginning with Acts and John’s teaching, Austin-Sparks considers the Spirit’s inward work in believers and His display in the church, then turns to Acts 19 and the necessity of a life in the Spirit. It calls readers to yield to the Spirit’s control so Christ may be manifested and glorified.
