PROPHETIC WORD FROM 50 YEARS AGO - A. W. TOZER

"Let me go out on a limb a little bit and prophesy. I see the time coming when all the holy men whose eyes have been opened by the Holy Spirit will desert worldly Evangelicalism, one by one. The house will be left desolate and there will not be a man of God, a man in whom the Holy Spirit dwells,left among them."

"I hear Jesus saying...Mat 23:37-38: "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to her, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not! Behold, your house is left to you desolate"

"As the Church now stands, the man who sees this condition of worldly evangelicalism is written off as somewhat fanatical. But the day is coming when the house will be left desolate and there will not be a man of God among them. I would like to live long enough to watch this develop and see how things turn out. I would like to live to see the time when the men and woman of God-holy, separated and spiritually enlightened - walk out of the evangelical church and form a group of their own; when they get off the sinking ship and let her go down in the brackish and worldliness and form a new ark to ride out the storm."(END)

I just got this from a friend by email. I'm not a anti-church man but I thought I would share it. There's so much going on these days in the church for good and for bad.

"As the Church now stands, the man who sees this condition of worldly evangelicalism is written off as somewhat fanatical. But the day is coming when the house will be left desolate and there will not be a man of God among them."

Tozer was certainly speaking prophetically when he wrote that. We may pray to God that we are not the ones who are doing the writing off rather that we would be the ones considered fanatical...........bro Frank

Did Tozer ever write about coming out of the worldly church? This is the "sinking ship". Satan's counterfeit church, the religious system of Babylon. Did he ever echo the words of Jesus Christ to "come out of her, come out of her my people, and don't be partakers of her sins and plagues"?

Does anyone know if he ever preached or wrote on Rev 18:4?

I am curious as to what he wrote.

There is much confusion in the Church today because of all the blurred lines.

Brothers David...and Frank,

thank you for that grievous, terrible prophecy, I would comment what's on my heart, but I have come to realize thru bitter tears, and a broken spirit, that even commenting on this forum, is of little profit, and much loss, a loss of grace, etc.....and I would rather enjoy even the precious fellowship that brother Frank and I enjoyed, via the phone, not one hour ago. Such precious fellowship I have come to regard as a Gift of God, and I thank God for that.
in Jesus love, neil
