Este mundo: ¿campo de recreo o campo de batalla?: Un Llamado Al Mundo Real de Lo Espiritual

by A.W. Tozer

¿Qué visión tenemos del mundo en el que vivimos?Hubo un tiempo, dice Tozer, cuando el cristianismo ejerció una influencia dominante sobre el pensamiento de nuestros antepasados, cuando sabían que el mundo era un campo de batalla. La gente de hoy, sin embargo, piensa en el mundo, se lamenta Tozer, no como un campo de batalla, sino como un patio de recreo; el mundo se ha convertido en un lugar para divertirse, no en un lugar para luchar.

There was a time, Tozer says, when Christianity exercised a dominant influence over the thinking of our forefathers, when they knew the world was a battlefield. People today, however, think of the world, Tozer laments, not as a battleground, but as a playground; the world has become a place to frolic, not a place to fight.

About the author

Aiden Wilson Tozer was an American evangelical pastor, speaker, writer, and editor. After coming to Christ at the age of seventeen, Tozer found his way into the Christian & Missionary Alliance denomination where he served for over forty years. In 1950, he was appointed by the denomination's General Council to be the editor of "The Alliance Witness" (now "Alliance Life").

Born into poverty in western Pennsylvania in 1897, Tozer died in May 1963 a self-educated man who had taught himself what he missed in high school and college due to his home situation. Though he wrote many books, two of them, "The Pursuit of God" and "The Knowledge of the Holy" are widely considered to be classics.

A.W. Tozer and his wife, Ada Cecelia Pfautz, had seven children, six boys and one girl.
