A. W. Pink was born in Great Britain and immigrated to the U.S. to study at Moody Bible Institute. He pastored churches in Colorado, California, Kentucky, and South Carolina before becoming an itinerant Bible teacher in the 1920s. From 1925-1927 he Pastored in Sydney, Australia and later returned to his native land, taking up residence on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland, in 1940, where he remained until his death. Most of his works first appeared as articles in Studies in Scriptures, a monthly magazine concerned solely with the exposition of Scripture.
Pink was virtually unknown and certainly unappreciated in his day. Independent Bible study convinced him that much of modern evangelism was defective. When Puritan and reformed books were generally disregarded by the Church as a whole, he advanced the majority of their principles with untiring zeal. The progressive spiritual decline of his own nation (Britain) was to him the inevitable consequence of the prevalence of a “gospel” that could neither wound (with conviction of sin) nor heal (via regeneration). After his death, beginning in the 1960s and through the efforts of the Banner of Truth, his writings began to be rediscovered and Pink has now become one of the most influential Reformed and Baptist authors of the 20th and 21st centuries.
