More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Save me from the error of judging a church by its size, popularity or the amount of its yearly offerings.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We fear extremes and shy away from too much ardor in religion as if it were possible to have too much love or too much faith or too much holiness.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Hope is the music of the whole Bible, the heartbeat, the pulse and the atmosphere of the whole Bible.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To me, it has always been difficult to understand those evangelical Christians who insist upon living in the crisis as if no crisis existed. They say they serve the Lord, but they divide their days so as to leave plenty of time to play and loaf and enjoy the pleasures of the world as well. They are at ease while the world burns.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Complacency is the deadly enemy of spiritual progress. The contented soul is the stagnant soul.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A Christian should put away all defense and make no attempt to excuse himself either in his own eyes or before the Lord. Whoever defends himself will have himself for his defense, and he will have no other. But let him come defenseless before the Lord and he will have for his defender no less than God Himself.

The experiences of men who walked with God in olden times agree to teach that the Lord cannot fully bless the a man until He has first conquered him. The degree of blessing enjoyed by any man will correspond exactly with the completeness of God's victory over him.

It is probably impossible to think without words, but if we permit ourselves to think with the wrong words, we shall soon be entertaining erroneous thoughts for words, which are given us for the expression of thought, have a habit of going beyond their proper bounds and determining the content of thought.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When we try to focus our thought upon One who is pure uncreated being we may see nothing at all, for He dwelleth in light that no man can approach unto. Only by faith and love are we able to glimpse Him as He passes by our shelter in the cleft of the rock.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is dangerous to be so busy that you have no time to wait on God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God is never satisfied with anything less than all.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
No one can know the true grace of God who has not first known the fear of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To be right with God has often meant to be in trouble with men.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If the envious, the defamers and the backbiters were taken out of the average church, there would be revival overnight.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God dwells in eternity but time dwells in God. He has already lived all our tomorrows as He has lived all our yesterdays.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The low view of God entertained almost universally among Christians is the cause of a hundred lesser evils everywhere among us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The best preparation for worship is not a rehearsal, but surrender.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The idea that the Man Christ Jesus has absolute and final authority over the whole church and over all of its members in every detail of their lives is simply not now accepted as true by the rank and file of evangelical Christians
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side it is a seizing upon, an apprehending, a conquest by the Most High God. Our 'accepting' and 'willing' are reactions rather than actions. The right of determination must always remain with God.
