More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
We're here to be worshipers first and workers only second
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who is above, and his true position will be exposed. Let him be forced into making a choice between God and money, between God and men, between God and personal ambition, God and self, God and human love, and God will take second place every time.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We must invite the Cross to do its deadly work within before we can be free.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
As Christians, we are not to be people without feelings.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When God justifies a sinner, everything in God is on the sinner's side. All the attributes of God are on the sinner's side. It isn't that mercy is pleading for the sinner and justice is trying to beat him to death. All of God does all that God does.

Let me never become a slave to crowds.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If you cannot worship the Lord in the midst of your responsibilitie s on Monday, it is not very likely that you were worshiping on Sunday!

The only cross in all of history that was turned into an altar was the cross on which Jesus Christ died. It was a Roman cross. They nailed Him on it, and God, in His majesty and mystery, turned it into an altar. The Lamb who was dying in the mystery and wonder of God was turned into the Priest who offered Himself. No one else was a worthy offering.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Every ransomed man owes his salvation to the fact that during his days of sinning, God kept the door of mercy open.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we insist upon trying to imagine Him, we end with an idol, made not with hands but with thoughts and an idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.

...revivals (or any other spiritual gifts and graces) come only to those who want them badly enough. It may be said without qualification that every man is as holy and as full of the Spirit as he wants to be. He may not be as full as he wishes he were, but he is most certainly as full as he wants to be.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Because we are the handiwork of God, it follows that all our problems and their solutions are theological.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Yes, I believe you can be right with God and still not like the way some people behave. Our admonition is to love them in a larger and more comprehensive way because we are all one in Christ Jesus. This kind of love is indeed a Christian virtue!
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When we become too glib in prayer we are most surely talking to ourselves.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Trying to be happy without a sense of God’s presence is like trying to have a bright day without the sun.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we possess nothing, God will allow us to have plenty.

Whatever keeps me from my Bible is my enemy, however harmless it may appear to be.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Man for all his genius is but an echo of the original Voice, a reflection of the uncreated Light.
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
What I am anxious to see in Christian believers is a beautiful paradox. I want to see in them the joy of finding God while at the same time they are blessedly pursuing Him. I want to see in them the great joy of having God yet always wanting Him.
