Description
The story of pity and mercy and redeeming love are all here in two words: “He came.”
– A. W. Tozer
The Christian view of life is that we are living in the shadow of a crisis made by mankind, caused by his spurious rejection of God.
And that God comes, with unfathomable humility, as Man to fix it.
In Divine Humility, Tozer, a revered preacher, puts forth the foundational ideas of redemption:
– Humanity was created for a supreme and glorious purpose by its Creator
– We rebelled against that divine purpose
– This rejection caused a deep rift to open up between Creator and creature, a rift we could not hope to breach
– God, in indescribable mercy and grace, took our punishment upon Himself in the Incarnation
– The only appropriate response for any sinful man is to receive this gift and begin a right relationship with his Maker.
