God and I here is the beginning and the end of personal religion.

We often try to put God in a box. The God who fits in our boxes isn't the God & Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

As mercy is God's goodness confronting human misery and guilt, so grace is his goodness directed toward human debt and demerit.

May not the inadequacy of much of our spiritual experience be traced back to our habit of skipping through the corridors of the Kingdom like children in the market place, chattering about everything, but pausing to learn the value of nothing.

In the Bible, the race of life is never considered from the viewpoint of speed... We are to run it with patience.

Genuine Christian experience must always include an encounter with God Himself.

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?

For the Christian, humility is absolutely indispensable. Without it there can be no self-knowledge, no repentance, no faith and no salvation.

I remind you that there are churches so completely out of the hands of God that if the Holy Spirit withdrew from them, they wouldn't find it out for many months

Religion is interested primarily in the One who is the source of all things, the master of every phenomenon.

Nothing that comes from God will minister to my pride of self-congratulation. If I am tempted to be complacent and to feel superior because I have had a remarkable vision or an advanced spiritual experience, I should go at once to my knees and repent of the whole thing. I have fallen victim to the enemy.

The Christian church was designed to make sinners sweat. I have always believed that, and I still believe it. The messages preached in our churches should make backslidden Christians sweat. And if I achieve that objective when I preach, I thank God with all of my heart, no matter what people think of me.

It is necessary for God to use the hammers, the file, and the furnace in His holy work of preparing a saint for true sainthood. It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until He has hurt him deeply.

Rules for Self Discovery: 1. What we want most 2. What we think about most 3. How we use our money 4. What we do with our leisure time 5. The company we enjoy 6. Who and what we admire 7. What we laugh at.

Most Christians would rather be happy than feel the wounds of other peoples' sorrows.

The experiences of men who walked with God in olden times agree to teach that the Lord cannot fully bless the a man until He has first conquered him. The degree of blessing enjoyed by any man will correspond exactly with the completeness of God's victory over him.

We are saved to worship God. All that Christ has done in the past and all that He is doing now leads to this one end.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Image
The yearning to know what cannot be known, to comprehend the incomprehensible, to touch and taste the unapproachable, arises from the image of God in the nature of man. Deep calleth unto deep, and though polluted and landlocked by the mighty disaster theologians call the Fall, the soul senses its origin and longs to return to its source.
