Customer Reviews

Mystery of the Holy Spirit helpful in study

I was researching the Holy Spirit to teach a 9-week course. Tozer's views are so helpful.

DEF Worth The Read

I bought this book to learn more about the Holy Spirit and to "dive deeper." This book was well worth reading. It was compelling and kept me turning the pages. Tozer is challenging and inciteful. It's a book that can easily be read in a few days, but the content of the book is so thought provoking and "meaty" that it must be put down and thought through, so it takes longer to read in order to digest all that he is feeding you. This is a sermon written down for a book and I found myself hearing it preached from a pulpit as I was reading it. If you are looking for a challenge as well as a good read, then this is a book for you. Dive Deeper!

Clear. Strong. Compelling. Convicting.

MYSTERY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT is a collection of sermons delivered by A.W. Tozer about the Holy Spirit: who He is, what He is like, how to know Him, how to be filled with Him and other truths. Mature believers will relish these delectable treasures as Tozer clearly and compellingly whets the appetite to know more of Him. Tozer knew of whom he spoke. He was deeply and fully acquainted with the Holy Spirit and writes with the breath-taking candor and clarity of one who knows his subject intimately. Tozer is not bashful about speaking his mind, especially when it concerns the modern church: "We expect [to live our lives] and we just want the Lord to have the chariot ready when we are ready to die." "Some people consider church to be a social place with spiritual overtones. It is not. It is a spiritual place with social overtones." Tozer speaks longingly, even achingly of fellowship with the Holy Spirit: "The Holy Spirit is a living person. And as He is a living person, you can know Him and fellowship with Him; whisper to Him and have is voice whisper back to you in some love text that you know, or some love hymn, and whisper back to you, so that walking with the Spirit can become a habit with you." And of Jesus Christ: "Oh, that voice of the Shepherd, tender as a lullaby, strong as a wind and as mighty as the sound of many waters. The voice of Jesus, that healing, musical, solemn, beautiful voice of Jesus in His church." "Nobody loves the world quite enough. The man who loved the world enough to die for it, died for it." And of the saints: "Everybody has as much of God as he desires to have." "We need a loneliness for God..." The editor, James Snyder writes that this book sends the reader first to his knees and then to our Bibles.

Tozer: Mystery of the Holy Spirit

A must read for all those seeking to learn and know more about the Third PERSON of the Godhead. Tozer does not wax eloquent in this book, but his "speaking voice" still carries sound Biblical and foundational teaching necessary, at a time in Church History, in which, the Holy Spirit is often presented as one who embraces every kind of fanatcism now running the gammet in Pentecostal circles.
