una Cruz Nueva en Tiempos Modernos
Enlace de Lectura: La vieja y la nueva cruz: " Por A.W. Tozer
Sin anunciar y casi sin ser detectada, ha entrado en el círculo evangélico una cruz nueva en tiempos modernos. Se parece a la vieja cruz, pero no lo es; aunque las semejanzas son superficiales, las diferencias son fundamentales. Mana de esa nueva cruz una nueva filosofía acerca de la vida cristiana, y de aquella filosofía procede una nueva técnica evangélica, con una nueva clase de reunión y de predicación. Ese evangelismo nuevo emplea el mismo lenguaje que el de antes, pero su contenido no es el mismo como tampoco lo es su énfasis.

And in this case the faults are almost shocking.Tozer was a man who loved Scripture and loved nothing more than preaching its truths to all who would listen. “A.W. Tozer heralded biblical truth. He loved the Bible and unflinchingly preached what he believed people needed to hear, regardless of what they wanted.” Yet he was a man who neglected the mission field in his home. “On and off over the years, Aiden exercised his role as head of the family by encouraging times of family devotions. These never lasted more than a few weeks. As one son explained, the children just did not want it and they were seldom all together for extended periods in any case.”
Tozer was a man who dedicated himself to reading, study and prayer and who delighted to be in the presence of God.
