Daily reading required! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is a book about the attributes of God. Tozer does an outstanding job of pointing us to God by recalling those things which the Bible says are true of God Almighty.

A few ideas Tozer repeats throughout the book. These ideas are:

1) Modern man has lost the vision of the majesty of our God, and the first step to aquiring it is to determine to "Aquaint ourselves with God".

2) In attempting to see God the way that He truly is, we must believe in order that we may understand, not the other way around.

3) That God is unitary in His being and that all of His attributes work together perfectly without conflict with each other. Also, since God is infinite then all of His attributes are infinite as well.

I read a chapter from this book daily, and my hunger for His presence has certainly increased as a result. This book has helped me to see how futile I am in myself and how pride and worldliness are my biggest hinderences to drawing near to the Lord. This book will help you to see that nothing else in life really matters in comparison to our Almighty God.

Editorial Review:

Pursuit of God Study Guide 4 out of 5 stars.
5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

Tozer's The Pursuit of God is a deep, deep writing. Each reading reveals more of God and His purpose in our lives. The study guide, while faithfully following the format of the text, falls short of plumbing the depths of the text. It is a good starting point, but needs to be supplemented with teaching and discussion led by one who can reach into the depths the study guide leaves unexplored.

God Almighty, Lord of Glory! 5 out of 5 stars.

Wow! I love this book & I am not finished with it yet. I am reading it slowly and savoring every word. I will read it again & again. I do not even want to use the study guide but intend to study this book with Scriptures by my side.

Food for the Soul 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

If I could recommend only one book besides the Bible, this book would be it. Written in 1949, it is a classic, and often quoted by more contemporary authors. Tozer provides practical insights and encouragement to those who hunger and thirst for God. His words are moving, inspiring, relevant, and profound. Once you have read this book, you will want to keep it handy and refer to it often.

Editorial Review:

A classic best-seller. "Lord, I must speak of Thee" wrote Tozer, "lest by my silence I offend against the generation of Thy children."

This Version--Terrible Edition 1 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

The book is amazing and should be read by believers in Jesus, as well as people who "just go to church." This edition, however, is edited badly and unreadable at times. :( I've only gotten through the introduction.

The Pursuit of God 4 out of 5 stars.

The book itself, The Pursuit of God, is wonderful and powerful. There were a few editing errors that I found distracting. Also, other editions have discussion questions that were missing in this edition. I always appreciate having those.

Editorial Review:

Beautiful cloth version of this Tozer classic. Whether you are thirsting for more of God or do not yet know of the "mighty longing after God" that so consumed A.W. Tozer's life and ministry, The Pursuit of God will draw you into a deep, abiding relationship with the One who "nourishes the soul." This spiritual masterpiece exposes the roadblocks that keep us from fully knowing God, reveals our responsibility of the pursuit, and ultimately leads us into the very presence of God Himself. From the Publisher This new edition has been published with a beautiful new cover to reach a whole new generation of readers. Also available: God's Pursuit of Man, Tozer's profound prequel to The Pursuit of God.

Just a Closer Walk with Thee. 5 out of 5 stars.
13 of 13 people found this review helpful.

AW Tozer's works have one aim in sight; that the believer walk with God in Spirit and in Truth. His holy zeal is for nothing more than for the believer to have an experience with the living God, and not be content with what Paul called "having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof."

It is fitting that Rev. Tozer would begin this work with the scripture from Ecclesiastes, Chapter 12 v. 12 "And further, by these, my son, be admonished : of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh."

One merely has to go to their Christian bookstore and see that there is an endless supply of spiritual books, promising everything from wealth and riches in this life, deliverance, a Godly marriage, prayer, etc. However Rev. Tozer's writings are on an altogether higher spiritual plain. His Christianity is without pretense or promises. His one aim is to "know Him in the power of His resurrection and in the fellowship of His sufferings." Tozer's words cut to the quick. You can see that as he received his insight by revelation it required that he go to the same Cross he is pointing the rest of us to.

Tozer spares not what he calls "the Adamic ego." Whether we refer to this as "the flesh," or the "old man," the fact remains that there MUST be a death if we are to ever become what God ordained us to be.

Tozer is a firm believer in prevenient grace; God is on the throne at all times. Approaching this great and august Being presumptuously is to do so in vain. To Tozer, God was not an inference, a deduction, but rather a reality.

I can honestly say that I can only read a page or two of Tozer's writings at one sitting. He condenses spiritual truth so that if you do not read in a prayerful way, it is easy to miss his point, it is that sublime.

I have long recommended his works to those who want a closer walk with the Lord. Tozer's book "The Pursuit of God" was written first; this book is billed as a prequel written two years later. Both are worthy of intense study and incorporation into your daily quiet time.

You won't be disappointed. I know what Tozer's works have done for me.

Editorial Review:

Tozer's profound "prequel" to The Pursuit of God. Previously published as The Divine Conquest and The Pursuit of Man, WingSpread Publishers has released this book with a new title that better describes Tozer's original intention for this book. Although written two years after the publication of The Pursuit of God, Tozer's God's Pursuit of Man speaks fervently of God's desire for man to be saved and the action He takes as He "invades" the human soul. A beautiful new cover will reach a whole new generation of readers.

A Must Have 5 out of 5 stars.
28 of 28 people found this review helpful.

I am so glad to see these two books (The Attributes of God Vol. 1 and Vol. 2) re-released to the public after having gone out of print. J.I. Packer once wrote, "Theology is for doxology", simply put; the study of God should lead us to praise Him forevermore. Few people lead us down that path as skillfully as A.W. Tozer. While I recommend all Tozer's books, these two books in particular, are vitally important in today's age where true knowledge of God seems to be disappearing at a rapid pace in favor of a "have God your own way" mentality. But the truth is this; God is (as He is and who He is) infinitely more wonderful and beautiful than we could ever have imagined Him on our own. There is no higher activity that the human mind can engage in than the study of God's character - Tozer helps us with this plus invites our hearts to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord.

Volume One contains the following chapters; God's Infinitude; God's Immensity; God's Goodness; God's Justice; God's Mercy; God's Grace; God's Omnipresence; God's Immanence; God's Holiness; and God's Perfection.

This book is not just intended to be merely read, but also to be pondered deeply upon and prayed through. You will find it time well spent as you ask the Holy Spirit to take that which belongs to the Lord and make it known to you (John 16:14).

Editorial Review:

What is God like? For A.W. Tozer, there is no question more important. In fact, Tozer's desire to know God and His fullness consumed his entire life and ministry. Originally preached as sermons at Southside Alliance Church in Chicago, this first volume of the Attributes of God examines ten attributes: God's infinitude, immensity, goodness, justice, mercy, grace, omnipresence, immanence, holiness and perfection.

A study guide is included for an in depth look at each attribute.

Nothing but the Cross 5 out of 5 stars.
28 of 30 people found this review helpful.

This is simply a Great book by a Great author about a Great subject. This book is written for Christians that either want to be inspired or be reminded of the Christian Cross to stir up the passions within one's soul.

A concern was that the writing may be stilted, dated or out of style and therefore a drudgery to read but that was the furtherest from the truth. This book will certainly cause you to view the Cross with a passion that you may never have experienced and I write as a minister with over 30 years experience.

There are 7 sections each with 4 or 5 chapters that stand alone and therefore could be read as a devotional that is dedicated to the Radical Cross.

Chapter titles such as: The Cross is a Radical Thing; No One Wants to Die on a Cross; Coddled or Crucified; Dead in Christ and What Easter is About.

I challenge ANY believer to read this book that would like to have a new fire in their faith because it will be impossible not to be affected with this author's writing and understanding.

This is not a theological book, though there is theology, this is an inspirational book.

Read it and be inspired!!!

Editorial Review:

"The cross of Christ demands from each of us identification. It is of no use to us unless we make it our own and enter into his death and resurrection." A. W. Tozer

The Radical Cross is a powerful compilation of A. W. Tozer's inspired impressions on the cross of Christ. Arranged thematically, this thought-provoking book discusses The Radical Cross and its promises, its price, its purpose, its pain, its provisions and its paradox. It is a book that will challenge you to make the cross your own and to live the passion of Christ.

The high, clear call of the Spirit in a deadly quiet world. 5 out of 5 stars.
33 of 34 people found this review helpful.

"I believe we are under positive spiritual obligation to pray effectively till the present veil is torn away and the face of God is seen again by believing men," Tozer writes.

There is an irony that A.W. Tozer is more prolific and widely-read today than when he was alive. How I wish I could sit at his elbow and ask him about today's events, the future of the church, the coming King...In some ways, he answers those questions in "Keys to the Deeper Life."

Smith Wigglesworth once referred to the gifts of salvation, baptism of the Holy Spirit, and the deeper life as "Good, better, best." I think Tozer would agree.

Never afraid to speak truth, the first chapter sets the tone for the enitre book: "Leaning into the wind". Just like him. Eschewing the hypocritical, the false glory found in man's praise, and the shallow life, Tozer puts the trumpet to his lips to issue a clear call of the Spirit, to engage God at a deeper level. He urges believers to "1.)surrender, 2.)ask, 3.) obey, and 4.)believe in order to recieve the fullness of God, the Holy Spirit.

In the chapter, "Touching Heaven in Prayer", Tozer writes:
"What then shall we do?
We must deny self, take up the cross and count ourselves expendable.
We must cease to exercise the world's judgements and try to think God's thoughts after Him.
We must rekon ourselves dead to gain and glory and allow ourselves to become inextricably invloved with the cross of Christ and the high honor of God."

Putting God first and ourselves dead last.
What a concept.
Sounds like Christ.

Editorial Review:

In this revised and expanded collection of Tozer's most popular essays readers will discover the way to a vital, personal Christianity as they read commentary on revival, renewal, and much more.

More of a Good Thing 5 out of 5 stars.
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

Tozer writes, "We've lost the awe, the wonder, the fear and the delight. Why? Because we've lost God, or at least we've lost our high and lofty concept of God - the only concept of God that He honors". And so it is today; we can hear the great men and women of old calling to us, "Your God is too small!" What is needed is the strong medicine that comes from an intense gaze upon the Godhead. Tozer has done this and has written in a way that you and I can easily understand. This book encourages us to do the same - to come to know God for who He is and not just for whom we think He might be.

Volume Two contains the following chapters; God's Character; God's Self-Existence; God's Transcendence; God's Eternalness; God's Omnipotence; God's Immutability; God's Omniscience; God's Wisdom; God's Sovereignty; God's Faithfulness; and God's Love.

If some of these chapter titles sound a bit heavy or boring, take heart! They are not. I think you will find them to be life-giving water in the midst of a spiritual desert and a very real source of peace as God's Name is lifted up and magnified from cover to cover in this book. Yes! How great is our God!

Clear. Strong. Compelling. Convicting. 5 out of 5 stars.
9 of 9 people found this review helpful.

MYSTERY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT is a collection of sermons delivered by A.W. Tozer about the Holy Spirit: who He is, what He is like, how to know Him, how to be filled with Him and other truths. Mature believers will relish these delectable treasures as Tozer clearly and compellingly whets the appetite to know more of Him.

Tozer knew of whom he spoke. He was deeply and fully acquainted with the Holy Spirit and writes with the breath-taking candor and clarity of one who knows his subject intimately.

Tozer is not bashful about speaking his mind, especially when it concerns the modern church: "We expect [to live our lives] and we just want the Lord to have the chariot ready when we are ready to die."

"Some people consider church to be a social place with spiritual overtones. It is not. It is a spiritual place with social overtones."

Tozer speaks longingly, even achingly of fellowship with the Holy Spirit:

"The Holy Spirit is a living person. And as He is a living person, you can know Him and fellowship with Him; whisper to Him and have is voice whisper back to you in some love text that you know, or some love hymn, and whisper back to you, so that walking with the Spirit can become a habit with you."

And of Jesus Christ:

"Oh, that voice of the Shepherd, tender as a lullaby, strong as a wind and as mighty as the sound of many waters. The voice of Jesus, that healing, musical, solemn, beautiful voice of Jesus in His church."

"Nobody loves the world quite enough. The man who loved the world enough to die for it, died for it."

And of the saints:

"Everybody has as much of God as he desires to have."

"We need a loneliness for God..."

The editor, James Snyder writes that this book sends the reader first to his knees and then to our Bibles.
