The work of Christ on the cross did not influence God to love us, did not increase that love by one degree, and did not open any fount of grace or mercy in His heart. He had loved us from eternity, and needed nothing to stimulate that love. The cross is not responsible for God’s love; rather it was His love which conceived the cross as the one method by which we would be saved.”

Amen! I love Tozer’s work. I’m going to revisit some of his books in my library. Thanks.
Rev. Debby:
Thanks for your comments. I love Tozer’s work as well. His writing is so anointed.
Blessings to you.
