2010 Reprint of 1943 edition. Albert Benjamin Simpson, founder of The Christian and Missionary Alliance was born December 15, 1843 in Prince Edward Island, Canada. At an early age he felt the call of God on his life to preach and later experienced a dramatic conversion to faith in Jesus Christ. After discovering a line in Walter Marshall's Gospel Mystery of Sanctification "The first good work you will ever perform is to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ," Simpson committed his life to "Jesus Only"-the anthem that also ignited an unquenchable passion in his heart to reach the lost. This biography by Tozer is one of the few works on this inspirational figure.
