A.W. Tozer emphasizes that preaching Christ transcends mere emotional expressions of love; it requires an informed and intelligent understanding of faith. He argues that while creeds can be recited without conviction, true worship necessitates a foundational knowledge of God, which forms an implicit creed. Tozer insists that worship must be rooted in both spirit and truth, highlighting that knowledge of God is essential for meaningful worship. He warns against the notion that mystical experiences alone can suffice without doctrinal understanding. Ultimately, Tozer calls for a balance between heartfelt devotion and intellectual engagement in our faith.
