Until the day he died, A. W. Tozer never ceased to exhort the Church to walk as those who truly belong to the kingdom of God. Although he never toned down his criticism against what he called "churchianity," forged around spectacle, he believed that the Church was ready for renewal, and longed to see it return to what it once was, to that model typified by the early Church, full of the Holy Spirit, humble and loving.
If you have ever wondered why the Church has little influence in the world and, similarly, how your personal life could more clearly constitute the powerful testimony that characterized the first Christians, Tozer's stern and blunt words will remind you of what you are missing, and will challenge you to renounce the superficial so that you can walk toward authentic faith.
