More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Worship is to feel in your heart and express in some appropriate manner a humbling but delightful sense of admiring awe and astonished wonder and overpowering love in the presence of that most Ancient Mystery, that Majesty which philosophers call the first cause, but which we call our Father which art in heaven.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God created our souls to be satisfied only with the divine everlastingness of the Word made flesh.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
In coming to Christ we don't bring our old life up to a higher plane we leave it at the cross.

God expects of us only what He Himself has supplied.

The man with a cross no longer controls his destiny he lost control when he picked up his cross. That cross immediately became to him an all-absorbing interest, an overwhelming interference. No matter what he may desire to do, there is but one thing he can do that is, move on toward the place of crucifixion.

God calls us to worship, but in many instances we are in entertainment, just running a poor second to the theaters. That is where we are, even in the evangelical churches, and I don't mind telling you that most of the people we say we are trying to reach will never come to a church to see a lot of amateur actors putting on a home-talent show.

We get the odd notion that God is showing mercy because Jesus died. No. Jesus died because God is showing mercy.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Yes, worship of the loving God is man's whole reason for existence.

To me, it has always been difficult to understand those evangelical Christians who insist upon living in the crisis as if no crisis existed. They say they serve the Lord, but they divide their days so as to leave plenty of time to play and loaf and enjoy the pleasures of the world as well. They are at ease while the world burns.

Progress in the Christian life is exactly equal to the growing knowledge we gain of the Triune God in personal experience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For this reason the gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he is his deep heart conceives God to be like.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Shall it be a religion or shall it be Christ? Shall it be churchianity or shall it be Jesus Christ? Shall it be pride or shall it be humility in Jesus Christ?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When I understand that everything happening to me is to make me more Christlike, it resolves a great deal of anxiety.

If Jesus Christ isn't the central figure in our lives and in our churches, we're only fooling ourselves.
