Until self-effacing men return again to spiritual leadership, we may expect a progressive deterioration in the quality of popular Christianity year after year till we reach the point where the grieved Holy Spirit withdraws - like the Shekinah from the temple.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
