A Small Dose of Tozer

October 26, 2006

‘Our constant effort should be to reach as many persons as possible
with the Christian message, and for that reason numbers are
critically important. But our first responsibility is not to make
converts but to uphold the honor of God in a world given over to
the glory of fallen man. No matter how many persons we touch with
the gospel we have failed unless, along with the message of
invitation, we have boldly declared the exceeding sinfulness of man
and the transcendent holiness of the Most High God. They who
degrade or compromise the truth in order to reach larger numbers,
dishonor God and deeply injure the souls of men.

The temptation to modify the teachings of Christ with the hope that
larger numbers may “accept” Him is cruelly strong in this day of
speed, size, noise, and crowds. But if we know what is good for us,
we’ll resist it with every power at our command.’
