The Letter to the Hebrews

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 Letter to the Hebrews” presents sonship in Christ as a heavenly calling: believers share the life of the Son and are formed for responsibility and fullness in God’s house. Opening with Hebrews’ declaration that God has spoken in a Son, Austin-Sparks connects Israel’s history, spiritual understanding, and the inheritance of God’s promises. The message calls readers to an undivided heart, faithful service, and maturity through the discipline of suffering.
