The story of pity, mercy, and redeeming love is 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.
