The Root of Righteousness
Week Six

Recently, I have been reading a book by A. W. Tozer entitled Root of Righteousness. This book, written in 1948, is a collection of essays he penned on the state of the church in that day. He writes (on page 9) "A tree can weather almost any storm if its root is sound, but when the fig tree which the Lord cursed 'dried up from the root' (Matthew 21:19) it immediately withered away. A church that is soundly rooted cannot be destroyed, but nothing can save a church whose root is dried up. No stimulation, no advertising campaign, no gifts of money and no beautiful edifice can bring back life to the rootless tree ..."

The whole Bible and all the great saints of the past join to tell us the same thing ... Open your hearts and search the Scripture.

A man shall not be established by wickedness; but the root of righteous shall not be moved. Proverbs 12:12
