DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

A.W. Tozer emphasizes the profound beauty in God's approach to humanity,
illustrating how salvation is offered through a humble Man who invites
everyone to follow Him. This invitation is universal, highlighting the
freedom of choice each individual possesses in responding to God's call.
Tozer points out that every person, regardless of their status, holds
the power to determine their own destiny through their choices. The
quiet yet powerful voice of God beckons us to listen and respond, as our
decisions shape our eternal future. Ultimately, Tozer reminds us that
God has entrusted much of Himself to humanity, allowing us to choose our
path.

CONTENT
------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a strange beauty in the ways of God with men. He sends
salvation to the world in the person of a Man and sends that Man to walk
the byways, saying, "If any man will come after Me!" No fanfare; no
tramp of marching feet! A kindly Stranger walks through the earth, and
so quiet is His voice that it is sometimes lost in the hurly-burly; but
it is the last voice of God, and until we become quiet to hear it, we
have no authentic message. "If any man," He says, and teaches at once
the universal inclusiveness of His invitation and the freedom of the
human will. Everyone may come; no one need come, and whoever does come,
comes because he chooses to.

Every man thus holds his future in his hand.

Not the dominant world leader only, but the inarticulate man lost in
anonymity is "a man of destiny!" He decides which way his soul shall go.
He chooses, and destiny waits on the nod of his head. He decides, and
hell enlarges itself, or heaven prepares another mansion! So much of
Himself has God given to man!
