    Being and Doing

    By A.W. Tozer

    GEN 1:27PSA 8:5EPH 2:10COL 3:23

    A.W. Tozer emphasizes the distinction between 'being' and 'doing,' arguing that society often defines individuals by their occupations rather than their inherent humanity. He asserts that a person's true worth lies in their identity as a human being created in the image of God, rather than in their job or achievements. Tozer highlights that, apart from sin, all work is good and natural, and that one's essential humanity remains unchanged regardless of their profession. He illustrates this by comparing a prince walking through a field, which elevates the ordinary path by his presence, symbolizing how humanity can elevate work through their inherent dignity. Ultimately, Tozer calls for recognition of our fundamental identity as God's special creation, beyond the roles we fulfill in society.
