There is scarcely anything so dull and meaningless as Bible doctrine taught for its own sake. Truth divorced from life is not truth in its Biblical sense, but something else and something less.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
True obedience is the refusal to compromise in any regard our relationship with God, regardless of the consequences.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Made as we were in the image of God we scarcely find it strange to take again our God as our All. God was our original habitat and our hearts cannot but feel at home when they enter again that ancient and beautiful abode.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We can afford to follow Him to failure. Faith dares to fail. The resurrection and the judgment will demonstrate before all worlds who won and who lost. We can wait.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Where God and man are in relationship, this must be the ideal. God must be the communicator, and man must be in the listening, obeying attitude. If men and women are not willing to assume this listening attitude, there will be no meeting with God in living, personal experience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We are in an age of religious complexity. The simplicity which is in Christ is rarely found among us. In its stead are programs, methods, organizations, and a world of nervous activities which occupy time and attention but can never satisfy the longing of the heart.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
And what kind of habitation pleases God? What must our natures be like before he can feel at home within us? He asks nothing but a pure heart and a single mind. He asks no rich paneling, no rugs from the Orient, no art treasures from afar. He desires but sincerity, transparency, humility, and love. He will see to the rest.

To be right with God has often meant to be in trouble with men. This is such a common truth that one hesitates to mention it, yet it appears to have been overlooked by the majority of Christians today.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To expose our hearts to truth and consistently refuse or neglect to obey the impulses it arouses is to stymie the motions of life within us and, if persisted in, to grieve the Holy Spirit into silence.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Let a man set his heart only on doing the will of God and he is instantly free. No one can hinder him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We might be wise to follow the insight of the enraptured heart rather than the more cautious reasoning of the theological mind.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Most Christians would rather be happy than feel the wounds of other peoples' sorrows.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Mans nature indicates that he was created for three things: To think, to worship and to work. But thinking is not enough. Men are made to worship also, to bow down and adore in the presence of the Mystery inexpressible.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If you want to be changed, read a good book.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I remind you that there are churches so completely out of the hands of God that if the Holy Spirit withdrew from them, they wouldn't find it out for many months
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If you have believed but not obeyed, you have postponed your Christian life.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Many things about our salvation are beyond our comprehension, but not beyond our trust.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God is looking for men in whose hands His glory is safe.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
An honest man is strange when he is among dishonest men, but it is a good kind of strangeness.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith in God is to be demonstrated, not defined.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We get our moral bearings by looking at God. We must begin with God. We are right when, and only when, we stand in a right position relative to God, and we are wrong so far and so long as we stand in any other position.
