A.W. Tozer maintained that a theologian's message must be 'both
timeless and timely', a sentiment borne out in the fact that his
writing on worship still acts as an urgent warning today. Tozer is
primarily concerned with the loss of the concept of 'majesty' from
the popular mind and more importantly from the thinking of the
church. He sees the church as having surrendered her once lofty
concept of God - not deliberately, but little by little and without
her knowledge. With this comes a further loss of religious awe and
a sense of the divine presence, of an appropriate spirit of worship
and of our ability to withdraw inwardly to meet God in adoring
silence. Tozer addresses this problem, to go back to the causes of
the decline and to understand and correct the errors that have
given rise to our devotional poverty. 'It is impossible to keep our
moral practices sound and our inward attitudes right while our idea
of God is erroneous or inadequate,' he tells us. What is needed is
a restoration of our knowledge of the holy.
