B04066 - Jesus Author Of Our Faith - PB
Tozer, A W - WingSpread Publishers
Based on sermons that Tozer preached from the final chapters of the letters to the Hebrews. The author underscores the necessity of an active, abiding faith in Jesus Christ so we can live lives pleasing to God. From the back cover: Often quoted by Chuck Swindoll, Charles Stanley, Billy Graham and other great preachers, A.W. Tozer's words are being heard and read by millions today--words like: "We must make our choices even as Enoch did. Enoch refused to walk in agreement with the ungodly multitude of his generation." -Chapter 2, Enoch: Faith Takes Us to the Rapture "I hope I never hear any Christian bragging even a little bit about what he or she gave up and how much it cost him or her to answer the call of God. Anything that we were or any abilities that we possessed were as nothing compared to what God has called us into as His believing children." -Chapter 4, Faith Answers When God Calls If I am tempted to copy someone whom I admire as a Christian believer, I will probably succeed only in copying his or her eccentricities and not that person's spirituality at all. -Chapter 6, Faith Is Finding God for Ourselves The chapters of this book were originally preached as sermons at Avenue Road Alliance Church in Toronto. Whether spoken or written, Tozer's words were designed to "promote personal heart religion" among God's people. "If a sermon can be compared to light, then A.W. Tozer released a laser beam from the pulpit, a beam that penetrated your heart." - Warren Wiersbe "A 20th century prophet" they called him even in his own lifetime. For 31 years he was pastor of Southside Alliance Church in Chicago, where his reputation as a man of God was citywide. Concurrently, he became editor of ALLIANCE LIFE, a responsibility he fulfilled until his death in 1963. His greatest legacy to the Christian world has been more than 40 books, including this one.
