For reading and praying during coming Holidays
***
Dear Friends and Intercessors,
For men and women who like to spend holidays reading and praying, there are a few things available in bookshops, libraries and in the book shelves of friends to buy and borrow.
We would like to make a suggestion – try Tozer. . .
For this Christmas and New Year we offer
“JESUS IS VICTOR!”
Twelve chapters on the coming Messiah, our King and Saviour.
Dear Friends and Intercessors,

Twelve chapters on the coming Messiah, our King and Saviour.
The foreword to this item:
AIDEN WILSON TOZER is remembered by many as an effective preacher of God’s written Word. And those who knew him best testify to his consistent practice of the truths he proclaimed. In the years since his death in 1963, there has been in conservative Christianity a growing wave of respect and gratitude for this Spirit-taught prophet of our century.
When, upon his death, it was discovered that Tozer had left no unpublished book manuscripts, the editors at Christian Publications turned to the depository of his weekly sermons, electronically recorded both in Chicago and Toronto. From those sermons have come many of the posthumous books bearing the Tozer byline.
This volume is the last from that source. In Toronto in 1961, Tozer preached a series of messages from the book of Revelation. Unfortunately only fourteen tapes, covering the first ten chapters of Revelation, can be located. That explains why this volume of twelve chapters cannot be considered an exposition of the entire book. Rather, it should be received as a volume of still timely spiritual lessons discovered and preached by Tozer in the mature years of his long public ministry.
Surely it would have been the author’s desire that all who pursue the truth in Revelation determine to be among the “overcomers”—resting their faith on the goodness and grace of a loving and just Creator God.

The introduction to JESUS IS VICTOR:
The following paragraphs are the thoughts and words of the author, A.W. Tozer, as he explained to his Toronto congregation his own approach to the Revelation.
THE REVELATION IS A GREAT BOOK because it is the revelation of Jesus Christ! It is not, as some suppose, a book just for theologians, scholars and historians. Although the book presents a complex message, it was written for ordinary people like us.
We have choices as to what we will do with the Revelation. I warn you that it is entirely possible to turn the Revelation into a source of blight to your soul. On the other hand, it is possible to find in this Revelation a great source of light and blessing.
As far as I am concerned, we are dealing in the Revelation with the Word of God. To try to plumb divine mysteries and to learn divine truth without sorrow in our hearts and tears in our eyes is vanity and futility ten times multiplied.
Revelation raises questions that none of us can answer. There are many details in God’s plan for the end of this age that we do not know. Admittedly, some preachers seem able to preach wonderful sermons about things they do not know, but I refuse to be placed in that category.
Here is the method that I must follow as we proceed in our study:
I will not attempt to interpret or explain all of the symbols and figures of speech as they appear.
I will not arbitrarily force every passage to fit some prophetic pattern or idea. (If you want to take that route—which, I repeat, I will not take—I warn you that you may do it at the terrible expense of spiritual dishonesty! Or, short of that, you will narrow down your mind to a point where you can never expand or grow—where the Lord can find nothing further to say to you.)
I will freely admit that there are symbols, personalities and figures that I cannot understand or explain.
Positively, I will identify the main points to discover the underlying spiritual lessons.
I will emphasize the great central truth that dominates the Revelation: the truth that when God in heaven gets enough of this world’s sin and rejection, violence and rebellion, He will wait no longer. He will do something about it!
We need not decipher and decode mysterious symbols to determine the outcome of this conflict of the ages. There is a plain and radiant theme from the beginning to the end of the Revelation: Jesus is Victor!
That theme will be our theme in these meditations.
