Description
Introduction
Tozer is
as popular today as when he was living on the earth. He is respected right
across the spectrum of Christianity, in circles that would disagree sharply
with him doctrinally. Why is this?
A. W.
Tozer was a man who knew the voice of God. He shared this experience with every
true child of God. With all those who are called by the grace of God to share
in the mystical union that is possible with Him through His Son Jesus. It is
hard for anyone to deny the spiritual power which Tozer experienced and exercised
on a daily basis. It was so clearly evidenced in his life and actions. It may
be he neglected other areas of his life that were just as important, but we
must be careful to never lift any man up to level of sainthood. Tozer was a
man, he had faults. But he loved God and he loved His Church and he fought for
both.
Tozer
fought against much dryness and formality in his day. Considered a mighty man
of God by most Evangelicals today, he was unconventional in his approach to
spirituality and the time, and had no qualms about consulting everyone from
Catholic Saints to German Protestant mystics for inspiration on how to
experience God more fully. While some are criticized for doing so today, many
look up to Tozer. Many times a prophet is rejected by his own and revered in
later times. Let us be careful we are not rejecting the movement of God’s
spirit in our times, by labelling as heresy that which has God’s blessing on
it.
Tozer,
just like his Master, doesn’t fit neatly into our theological boxes. He was a
man after God’s own heart and was willing to break the rules (man-made ones
that is) to get there.
Here is a
writing by Tozer that touches on the heart of this goal. Total Commitment to Christ: What is it?. It was given by Tozer
shortly before his passing and transcribed shortly thereafter.
This is
meat to sink your spiritual teeth into. Tozer’s writings will show you the way
to satisfy your spiritual hunger.
