Review Summary: Daily reading required!	Date: 2008-05-04


Details: This is a book about the attributes of God. Tozer does an outstanding job of pointing us to God by recalling those things which the Bible says are true of God Almighty. A few ideas Tozer repeats throughout the book. These ideas are: 1) Modern man has lost the vision of the majesty of our God, and the first step to aquiring it is to determine to "Aquaint ourselves with God". 2) In attempting to see God the way that He truly is, we must believe in order that we may understand, not the other way around. 3) That God is unitary in His being and that all of His attributes work together perfectly without conflict with each other. Also, since God is infinite then all of His attributes are infinite as well. I read a chapter from this book daily, and my hunger for His presence has certainly increased as a result. This book has helped me to see how futile I am in myself and how pride and worldliness are my biggest hinderences to drawing near to the Lord. This book will help you to see that nothing else in life really matters in comparison to our Almighty God.

Review Summary: Good	Date: 2008-04-16


Details: This is a classic work. It is short and still covers many attributes of God. What's so good about this book, is authors ability to give comprehensive and interconnected view of divine attributes; to show how they are connected and do not oppose each other. I would recommend this book for everybody. It's easy to read and will cause you to rethink your relationship with God for better.

Review Summary: The Knowledge of the Holy, a Must Read for Every Christian	Date: 2008-04-13


Details: The Knowledge of the Holy by Tozer is a must read for every Christian. He seems to see into the heart of God and knows, as we all should, that God wants us to know Him and in knowing Him worship and serve Him. The book has short chapters each on something "True about God" and the essential first chapters explain why we need to think rightly about God, anything short is idolatry. As I said, the book is essential reading with an open Bible next to it for all Christians, young and old. In Jesus steve

Review Summary: Anthropomorphic!	Date: 2008-02-03


Details: AW Tozer is the best at anthropomorshism, which is the abilit to explain the unexplainable in terms understandable. This concept is almost beyond reason but after reading "The Knowlege of the Holy" I have experienced it. This is the best book for those wanting to better understand God. It's also perfect for those who are struggling with their spiritual life. Tozer' gift is the ability to explain God's attributes in very simple terms. It's a timeless book. I keep several copies on hand and use them for spontaneous gifts.

Review Summary: not so mystical	Date: 2008-01-23


Details: some have marked Tozer as a writer and theologian who took a rather "mystical" look at God and the things of God, but this book's beautiful prose serves not to mystify God but to make Him more understandable to the human mind. It helped me in seeing what it meant that He is lovely.
