The Attributes of God
The Attributes of God
Volume One
A Journey Into the Father's Heart
AW Tozer
Often quoted by Chuck Swindoll, Charles Stanley, Billy Graham and other great preachers, AW Tozer's words are being heard and read by millions today - words like:
God is infinite!... We mean by infinite that God knows no limits, no bounds and no end. What God is, He is without boundaries.
Christianity at any given time is strong or weak depending upon her concept of God. And I insist upon this and said it many times, that the basic the trouble with the Church today is her unworthy conception of God . . . Our religion is weak because our God is weak.
All God's reasons for doing anything lie inside God - that is, they are what God is . . . Nothing has been added to God from eternity. And nothing has been removed from God from eternity . . . He has never changed in any way, because He is the unchanging God.
The chapters of this book were originally preached as sermons at Southside Alliance Church in Chicago. Whether spoken or written, Tozer's words were designed to "promote personal heart religion" among God's people.
'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.
