Christianity takes for granted the absence of any self-help and offers a power which is nothing less than the power of God.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
One of the most popular current errors, and the one out of which springs most of the noisy, blustering religious activity in evangelical circles, is the notion that as times change the church must change with them.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I think a new world will arise out of the religious mists when we approach our Bible with the idea that it is not only a book which was once spoken, but a book which is now speaking.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Progress in the Christian life is exactly equal to the growing knowledge we gain of the Triune God in personal experience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The abuse of a harmless thing is the essence of sin.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God is so vastly wonderful, so utterly and completely delightful that He can, without anything other than Himself, meet and overflow the deepest demands of our total nature, mysterious and deep as that nature is.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A spiritual kingdom lies all about us, enclosing us, embracing us, altogether within reach of our inner selves, waiting for us to recognize it. God Himself is here awaiting our response to His presence. This eternal world will come alive to us the moment we begin to reckon upon its reality.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is altogether doubtful whether any man can be saved who comes to Christ for His help with no intention to obey Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I find that when people haven't found God and do not know the new birth and the Spirit is not on them, yet they have the ancient impulse to worship something. If they're not educated they kill a chicken and put a funny thing on their head and dance around. If they are educated they write poetry.

What good is all our busy religion if God isn't in it? What good is it if we've lost majesty, reverence, worship-an awareness of the divine? What good is it if we've lost a sense of the Presence and the ability to retreat within our own hearts and meet God in the garden?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Let every man abide in the calling wherein he is called and his work will be as sacred as the work of the ministry. It is not what a man does that determines whether his work is sacred or secular, it is why he does it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are at opposite sides of the same coin.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Wherever we find Jesus is the perfect place to worship.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Only the redeemed have the ability to like what God likes and to be pleased with what pleases God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A man by his sin may waste himself, which is to waste that which on earth is most like God. This is man's greatest tragedy and God's heaviest grief.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God answers our prayers not because we are good, but because He is good.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Christian liberty is freedom from sin, not freedom to sin.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He IS that standard.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Though the cross of Christ has been beautified by the poet and the artist, the avid seeker after God is likely to find it the same savage implement of destruction it was in the days of old. The way of the cross is still the pain-wracked path to spiritual power and fruitfulness.

The author squares man's depravity with still being made in the image of God with this word picture. A vase that has held beautiful roses though now broken, will nevertheless hold something of the fragrance it once contained.
