The complacency of Christians is the scandal of Christianity.

Aiden Wilson Tozer
A man by his sin may waste himself, which is to waste that which on earth is most like God. This is man's greatest tragedy and God's heaviest grief.

We operate by faith, which means that we have confidence in what God says, whether we fully understand it or not
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To men and women everywhere Jesus says, Come unto me, and I will give you rest. The rest He offers is the rest of meekness, the blessed relief which comes when we accept ourselves for what we are and cease to pretend.

Whoever will listen will hear the speaking heaven. This is definitely not the hour when men take kindly to an exhortation to listen, for listening is not today a part of popular religion. We are at the opposite end of the pole from there. Religion has accepted the monstrous heresy that noise, size, activity and bluster make a man dear to God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Retire from the world each day to some private spot. Stay in the secret place till the surrounding noises begin to fade out of your heart and a sense of God's presence envelops you. Deliberately tune out the unpleasant sounds and come out of your closet determined not to hear them. Listen for the inward voice till you learn to recognize it.

Faith, as Paul saw it, was a living, flaming thing leading to surrender and obedience to the commandments of Christ.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
You will never be more than a common Christian until you give up your own interest and cease defending yourself.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Any manipulation of the Scriptures to make them speak peace to the natural man is evil and can only lead to ruin.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God does not stop at rescuing us the purpose of that rescue is to enjoy fellowship with us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer

God wants the whole person and He will not rest till He gets us in entirety. No part of the man will do (101) - The Pursuit of God
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Genuine Christian experience must always include an encounter with God Himself.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The labor of self-love is a heavy one indeed... The heart's fierce effort to protect itself from every slight, to shield its touchy honor from the bad opinion of friend and enemy, will never let the mind have rest.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If the Lord's people were only half as eager to be filled with the Spirit as they are to prove that they cannot be filled, the church would be crowded out.
