A.W. Tozer once wrote, "For a long time I have believed that truth, to be understood, must be lived; that Bible doctrine is wholly ineffective until it has been digested and assimilated by the total life.  The essence of my belief is that there is a difference, a vast difference, between fact and truth.  Truth in the Scriptures is more than a fact.  A fact may be detached, impersonal, cold and totally disassociated from life.  Truth, on the other hand, is warm, living and spiritual!"
