The Christian Book of Mystical Verse

Information on The Christian Book of Mystical Verse from the publisher:

The term "mystic" conjures up various meanings by contemporary Christians: persons who may be emotionally unstable, visionary, self-deceived, of unsound doctrine, accepting of the bizarre, etc.Tozer, however, referred to the evangelical mystic as one "who has been brought by the gospel into intimate fellowship with the Godhead."Intimate fellowship with God. The phrase was descriptive of Tozer's relationship with Deity--and that of those whose works he has gathered here "to make available to present-day Christians a rich spiritual heritage which the great number of [us] for various reasons do not now enjoy."

Description of A.w. Tozer, author of The Christian Book of Mystical Verse:

A.W. Tozer used the term "mystic" to mean "spiritual experience common to the saints of Bible times and well-known to multitudes of persons in the post-biblical era." Personally selected by Tozer himself, these poems will instill a longing for the same deeper knowledge of God the early saints enjoyed.
