W. Tozer seldom used an unnecessary word. His sentences were plain and vivid, connecting with readers like an electrical circuit. Listen to this Tozer paragraph: \u201cOne great concern I have is that many of today\u2019s Christians are not taking the Word of God seriously. For whatever reason, the Scriptures do not have authority in the Christian\u2019s life in the way that is necessary for him or her to live a life to the glory of God.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">God and His Word are the only immovable shelters in a world of uncertainty.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Do you have that sense of urgency right now about eternity? Do you realize that the date of your death is a fixed date on God\u2019s calendar? There is not one thing you can do to postpone it. And every second that passes moves you closer and closer to that inevitability. A wise person is one who acts quickly to make preparation for the future. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">Anytime I talk to somebody about their relationship with Christ, there is one question that to me determines whether they are saved or lost: If you were to stand before God, and He were to ask you, \u201cWhy should I let you into heaven?\u201d what would you say? Most people would say, \u201cI live by the Golden Rule,\u201d or, \u201cAlthough I am not perfect, I am good enough.\u201d That is what most people are banking on: that they are good enough to enter God\u2019s presence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Professions of faith without expressions of faith mean there is no possession of faith. It does not matter what you say you believe; the true evidence of your faith is your obedience to God.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you want to manifest the fruit of the spirit &#8211; love, joy, peace, kindness, gentleness, etc,,, and other attributes of Christ, you must be rooted in Him, watered and pruned by His Word.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">One of the greatest mistakes Christians make is believing we get an exemption from problems in life. \u00a0Being a follower of His does not exempt you from problems. Yet many Christians are absolutely shaken to their foundation when problems enter their lives. \u201cBeloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Until you are willing to accept God\u2019s evaluation of yourself and your sinfulness, you will never be ready to accept God\u2019s gift of forgiveness.
