More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Our error today is that we do not expect a converted man to be a transformed man, and as a result of this error our churches are full of substandard Christians. A revival is among other things a return to the belief that real faith invariably produces holiness of heart and righteousness of life.

You win them to what you win them with.

Our most pressing obligation is to do all in our power to obtain a revival that will result in a reformed, revitalized, purified church. Each generation of Christians is the seed of the next, and degenerate seed is sure to produce a degenerate harvest.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Real faith never disappoints because it is in God, grounded on His character, promises, covenant and oath.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
One hundred religious persons knit into a unity by careful organizations do not constitute a church any more than eleven dead men make a football team. The first requisite is life, always.

Gratitude is an offering precious in the sight of God, and it is one that the poorest of us can make and be not poorer but richer for having made it.

Christians must understand most emphatically that the world around us is in conflict with the Word within us.

The purpose of God isn't to save us from Hell. The purpose of God is to make us like Christ.

Leadership requires vision, and whence will vision come except from hours spent in the presence of God in humble and fervent prayer?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For it is not mere words that nourish the soul, but God Himself, and unless and until the hearers find God in personal experience they are not the better for having heard the truth.

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
We operate by faith, which means that we have confidence in what God says, whether we fully understand it or not
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Wherever we find Jesus is the perfect place to worship.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Until we believe that we are as bad as God says we are, we can never believe that He will do for us what He says He will do. Right here is where popular religion breaks down.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We know nothing like the divine holiness. It stands apart, unique, unapproachable, incomprehensibl e and unattainable... Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He is that standard.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Prayer is the most sacred occupation a person could engage in.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God doesn't work through us because we're flawless rather, He works through us in spite of our imperfections.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is either all of Christ or none of Christ! I believe we need to preach again a whole Christ to the world - a Christ who does not need our apologies, a Christ who will not be divided, a Christ who will either be Lord of all or will not be Lord at all!
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The sacred page is not meant to be the end, but only the means toward the end, which is knowing God Himself.
