'I fear we shall never see another Tozer. Men like him are not college-bred but Spirit-taught.' Leonard Ravenhill, 20th century British evangelist. Pastor A. W. Tozer, author of the Christian classics The Pursuit of God and The Knowledge of the Holy, was a complex, intensely private, deeply spiritual man, and a gifted preacher whose impact for the kingdom of God is immeasurable. In this thoughtful biography, bestselling author Lyle Dorsett traces Tozer's life from his humble beginnings as a Pennsylvania farm boy to his heyday as a Chicago pastor- when hundreds of college students would travel to his South Side church to hear him preach and thousands more heard his Sunday broadcasts on WMBI- to his final pastorate in Toronto. From his conversion as a teen to his death in 1963, Tozer remained true to one passion: to know the Father and make Him known, no matter what the cost. The price he paid was loneliness, censure from other, more secular-minded ministers of the times, and even a degree of estrangement from his family. Read the life story of a flawed but gifted saint, whose works are still impacting the world today.
Tozer was a man who was not afraid to 'tell it like it is' and never compromised his beliefs. A man whose life and spiritual legacy continue to draw many into a deeper knowledge of God. Tozer walked a path in his spiritual life that few at- tempt, characterized by a relentless and loving pursuit of God. His life is, perhaps, best summed up by Leonard Ravenhill who once said of him.. "I fear that we shall never see another Tozer. Men like him are not college bred but Spirit taught.""Quoting Scripture leads you to the fountain, but only if you plunge in and come up wet will I know that you are a Christian." - A.W. Tozer"I fear that we shall never see another Tozer. Men like him are not college bred but Spirit taught." - Leonard Ravenhill"'A 20th Century Prophet' so he was called in his life-time. His writings have left a permnant mark of blessing to the body of Christ and my life with Christ has never been the same since I picked up a Tozer volume." - Greg Gordon "A. W. Tozer had the gift of taking a spiritual truth and holding it up to the light so that, like a diamond, every facet was seen and admired." - Warren Wiersbe
It is by the Spirit that God works His mighty work. A.W. Tozer Dr. A.W. Tozer (1897-1963) was a twentieth-century prophet with keen insight into spiritual things, especially the nature of the Church at large. He spoke with prophetic precision about issues within the Church that he believed were crippling the Church spiritually. Mystery of the Holy Spirit is a collection of sermons that reveal Tozers prophetic insights into this crucial topic. These sermons on the Holy Spirit represent Dr. Tozer at his best. Tozers critique of the Church is as relevant today as when he first preached it from his pulpit in Chicago more than a half-century ago. These powerful messages exude the timeless fragrance of Gods anointing, pinning us down and piercing our hearts. We have grieved the Holy Spirit, Dr. Tozer warned, and He has withdrawn His anointing from many Christians. The greatest sin within the Evangelical church, according to Dr. Tozer, is neglecting the Holy Spirit and not allowing Him to be Lord in the Church. In these sermons we are challenged to confess this sin and invite the Holy Spirit to resume His rightful place of Lordship in our churches and in our lives today. In an era when many extremes are being promoted in the name of the Holy Spirit, Dr. Tozers cautious warnings are more than aproposthey are an urgent call to action.
Straight talk about the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit is confined to creeds, the church becomes like a land with no water or a kite with no wind. In his life and writings, A.W. Tozer was insistent that the church reclaim a practical theology of the Holy Spirit—that it actually know Him. The Counselor will help you cultivate sweet communion with God. Gifted at bringing lofty thoughts down low, Tozer explains clearly who the Spirit is and what it means to know Him. His words will leave you with a deep longing to be filled with the blessed Spirit, to have joy, peace, life, and power in Him. "[The Holy Spirit] wants to be Lord of your life, to possess you so that you are no longer in command of the little vessel in which you sail.”
Though much work has been done in the fields of Catholic and Oriental spirituality, Protestant spirituality has often been neglected. After a brief biography of A.W. Tozer, this study compares Tozer's mysticism to 35 mystical classics he recommended, such as John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, etc. The focus is on the nature of contemporary Protestant mysticism and the examination of a 20th-century figure operating within a very conservative section of Protestantism who was influenced by mystical prayer. The position which Tozer reached may be of value to others also having to cope with the pressures of contemporary life in a metropolitan environment.
