The sacred page is not meant to be the end, but only the means toward the end, which is knowing God Himself.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Repentance isn't only sorrow for past sins, it's also a determination to now do the will of God as He reveals it to us
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth. Acute desire must be present or there will be no manifestation of Christ to His people. He waits to be wanted. Too bad that with many of us He waits so long, so very long, in vain.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Nothing's easier to talk about than surrendering ourselves and dying on the Cross. Nothing's harder than actually doing it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I am a Bible Christian and if an archangel with a wingspread as broad as a constellation shining like the sun were to come and offer me some new truth, I'd ask him for a reference. If he could not show me where it is found in the Bible, I would bow him out and say, I'm awfully sorry, you don't bring any references with you
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Apart from God nothing matters. We think that health matters, that freedom matters, or knowledge or art or civilization. And but for one insistent word they would matter indeed. That word is eternity.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The poor quality of Christian that grows out of our modern evangelistic meeting may be accounted for by the absence of real repentance accompanying the initial spiritual experience of the converts. And the absence of repentance is the result of an inadequate view of sin and sinfulness held by those who present themselves in the inquiry room.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Is it ever possible to overdo the talking about the glory of Christ? Is it ever too often to be in God's presence?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God did not write a book and send it by messenger to be read at a distance by unaided minds. He spoke a Book and lives in His spoken words, constantly speaking His words and causing the power of them to persist across the years.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Most Christians don't hear God's voice because we've already decided we aren't going to do what He says.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Most of us go through life praying a little, planning a little, jockeying for position, hoping but never being quite certain of anything, and always secretly afraid that we will miss the way. This is a tragic waste of truth and never gives rest to the heart.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The man who remains in his sin will be damned just as surely as the sun comes up in the east and goes down in the west.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We Christians must simplify our lives or lose untold treasures on earth and in eternity. Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. The need for solitude and quietness was never greater than it is today.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Such words as amen, hallelujah, glory and others of like sacred association are repeated endlessly and meaninglessly in the apparent belief that they have in them some strange power for good. This can be no more than high-grade magic. It will pay us to search our own hearts thoroughly to discover just why we use these words.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Before there can be fullness there must be emptiness. Before God can fill us with Himself we must first be emptied of ourselves.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Man doesnt have the patience or the power to wait. But God does. He has all eternity to accomplish His purposes.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We have been snared in the coils of a spurious logic which insists that if we have found Him we need no more seek Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God is running the universe. We ought not think like scientists, but think like psalmists.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We may say simply that in the sight of God we are judged not so much by what we do as by our reasons for doing it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God cannot use a man or woman greatly until he wounds them deeply.
