More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
To great sections of the church the art of worship has been lost entirely, and in its place has come that strange and foreign thing called the 'program.' This word has been borrowed from the stage and applied with sad wisdom to the type of public service which now passes for worship among us.

The faith of Christ offers no buttons to push for quick service. The new order must wait the Lord's own time, and that is too much for the man in a hurry. He just gives up and becomes interested in something else.

People who are crucified with Christ have three distinct marks: 1. they are facing only one direction, 2. they can never turn back, and 3. they no longer have plans of their own.

Everything is wrong until Jesus sets it right.

The church that is not jealously protected by mighty intercession and sacrificial labors will before long become the abode of every evil bird and the hiding place for unsuspected corruption. The creeping wilderness will soon take over that church that trusts in its own strength and forgets to watch and pray.

What is wrong with Christians today is that we have the gifts of God but have forgotten the God of the gifts.

Low views of God destroy the gospel for all who hold them.

The more highly we think of ourselves-our abilities and talents-the less God can use us.

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 man who has been taught by the Holy Spirit will be a seer rather than a scholar. The difference is that the scholar sees and the seer sees through and that is a mighty difference indeed.

When you kill time, remember that it has no resurrection.

I want to be in a place where I have to have God in everything I do . . . where God is indispensable to me.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
But the sons of this world have not God they have only each other, and they walk holding to each other and looking to one another for assurance like frightened children.

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.

It is no sin to doubt some things, but it may be fatal to believe everything.

After my study of today's church, my conclusion is that the church is politely bored with God.
