More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
God dwells in His creation and is everywhere indivisibly present in all His works. He is transcendent above all His works even while He is immanent within them.

God never uses anyone greatly until He tests them deeply.

We desperately need seers who can see through the mist- Christian leaders with prophetic vision. Unless they come soon it will be too late for this generation. And if they do come we will no doubt crucify a few of them in the name of our worldly orthodoxy.

The veil of money has never been about how much money you have but about how much money has you.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Acquaint thyself with God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Jesus Christ never thinks about what we have been! He always thinks about what we are going to be.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What has the church gained if it is popular but there is no conviction, no repentance, no power?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When I understand that everything happening to me is to make me more Christlike, it resolves a great deal of anxiety.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its environment, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When we yield ourselves completely to God, He gives Himself completely to us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
No one need fear to listen to the voice of God unless he has already made up his mind to resist it.
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.
