The basic trouble with the church today is her unworthy concept of God... Our religion is weak because our God is weak... Christianity at any given time is strong or weak depending on her concept of God.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Coming before God in quietness & waiting upon Him in silence often can accomplish more than days of feverish activity.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians... The 'worship' growing out of such a view of life is as far off center as the view itself - a sort of sanctified nightclub without the champagne and the dressed-up drunks.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Unbelief is actually perverted faith, for it puts its faith not in the living God, but in dying men.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If I empty out half of my life, God can only fill half...God will fill as much of us as we allow Him to fill.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Because we have shut out the Holy Spirit in so many ways, we are stumbling along as though we are spiritually blindfolded.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Many Christians are satisfied with their destination but they neglect the journey.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When God would make His Name known to mankind He could find no better word than I AM. When He speaks in the first person He says, I AM when we speak of Him we say, He is when we speak to Him we say, Thou art. Everyone and everything else measures from that fixed point. I am that I am, says God, I change not.
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
Nothing's easier to talk about than surrendering ourselves and dying on the Cross. Nothing's harder than actually doing it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul's paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Go to church once a week and nobody pays attention. Worship God seven days a week and you become strange!
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Repentance isn't only sorrow for past sins, it's also a determination to now do the will of God as He reveals it to us
Aiden Wilson Tozer
True worship, worship that is pleasing to God, radiates throughout a person's entire life.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Whenever God begins something, we have the assurance that He will finish it. Nothing will stand in the way of Him accomplishing His purpose in this world and in our lives. What God starts, He finishes, and nobody can hinder Him. Sure, delays will happen. Just remember, God is in charge of the delays as well as the progress.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We get our moral bearings by looking at God. We must begin with God. We are right when, and only when, we stand in a right position relative to God, and we are wrong so far and so long as we stand in any other position.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Thinking carries a moral imperative. The searcher for truth must be ready to obey truth without reservation or it will elude him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I have no doubt that historians will conclude that we of the twentieth century had intelligence enough to create a great civilization but not the moral wisdom to preserve it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It's time for us to rise up, get out of the rut and routine, and begin to take our Christian faith seriously.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To pray without expectation is to misunderstand the whole concept of prayer and relationship with God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To truly know God we must long for Him without any other motive than reaching God Himself.
