Synopsis

From the Introduction:"Someone said that while Dr. A. W. Tozer always sought to introduce sinners to their Savior, he longed to help saints to see the greatness of God and to experience the life of victory and joy through surrender and faith. This theme—recognizing God for who He is, giving Him the worship and honor due Him—was particularly dominant in Dr. Tozer's late writings.To know God requires first of all a right relationship to Him. It requires time, and this we must give. It requires also faith and knowledge, and this God gives us as we humbly seek Him. And because we cannot know God apart from the illuminating Holy Spirit, we must welcome Him, allowing Him to indwell and possess us.The reader will find each chapter in this book complete in itself, and one may speak to him more than another. There is, however, progression, and the greater profit will come from at least one consecutive reading.The chapters were selected to instruct the heart that seeks to "follow on to know the Lord." Such a life may not be always easy, but at last it will be all that really matters.— Anita M. Bailey, former managing editor, the Alliance Witness

Goodreads review by Kent

This is a collection of Tozer's editorials that he wrote for The Alliance Witness in the early 1960s. The book begins with the title essay, "That Incredible Christian," which details the wonderful paradoxes that are true of the believer in Christ. It ends with "Meditating on God," an activity to whi......more

Goodreads review by Nathan

I feel, after having read this short but very worthwhile book, that this book somehow has the wrong title.  Although the author has a lot of very pointed things to say about what makes someone an incredible Christian, that does not appear to be the main focus of this book.  Rather, this book consist......more
