More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
The Church has surrendered her once lofty concept of God and has substituted for it one so low, so ignoble, as to be utterly unworthy of thinking, worshiping men. This she has not done deliberately, but little by little and without her knowledge and her very unawareness only makes her situation all the more tragic.

The various elements of truth stand in perpetual antithesis, sometimes requiring us to believe apparent opposites while we wait for the moment when we shall know as we are known.

Our walk by faith, if it is true biblical faith, will get us in trouble.

What is of man uses manipulation to conform. What is of #God uses implantation to transform.

The only cross in all of history that was turned into an altar was the cross on which Jesus Christ died. It was a Roman cross. They nailed Him on it, and God, in His majesty and mystery, turned it into an altar. The Lamb who was dying in the mystery and wonder of God was turned into the Priest who offered Himself. No one else was a worthy offering.

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.

Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its environment, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.

It requires a serious mind and a determined heart to pray past the ordinary into the unusual.

We tend by a secret law of the soul to move toward our mental image of God.

We Christians must simplify our lives or lose untold treasures on earth and in eternity.

God doesn't need anything nevertheless He wants worshipers.

God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.

It is dangerous to be so busy that you have no time to wait on God.

The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him.

Truth is a glorious but hard mistress. She never consults, bargains or compromises.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God wants us to worship Him. He doesn't need us, for He couldn't be a self-sufficient God and need anything or anybody, but He wants us. When Adam sinned it was not he who cried, 'God, where art Thou?' It was God who cried, 'Adam, where art thou?'

The history of mankind will probably show that no people has ever risen above its religion, and man's spiritual history will positively demonstrate that no religion has ever been greater than its idea of God.
