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.

Whom God would use greatly He will hurt deeply.

A scared world needs a fearless church.

After my study of today's church, my conclusion is that the church is politely bored with God.

Distractions must be conquered or they will conquer us. So let us cultivate simplicity let us walk in the Spirit.

Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who is above, and his true position will be exposed. Let him be forced into making a choice between God and money, between God and men, between God and personal ambition, God and self, God and human love, and God will take second place every time.

To be entirely safe from the devil's snares the man of God must be completely obedient to the Word of the Lord. The driver on the highway is safe, not when he reads the signs but when he obeys them.

It is no sin to doubt some things, but it may be fatal to believe everything.

Our most pressing obligation is to do all in our power to obtain a revival that will result in a reformed, revitalized, purified church. Each generation of Christians is the seed of the next, and degenerate seed is sure to produce a degenerate harvest.

By nature, worship is not some performance we do, but a presence we experience.

We must of necessity be servant to someone, either to God or to sin. The man who surrenders to Christ exchanges a cruel slave driver for a kind and gentle master whose yoke is easy and whose burden is light.

A church can wither as surely under the ministry of soulless Bible exposition as it can where no Bible is given. To be effective the preacher's message must be alive it must alarm, arouse, challenge it must be God's present voice to a particular people. Then, and not till then, is it the prophetic word and the man himself a prophet.

If JESUS cannot control you, HE cannot save you. And if HE cannot control ALL of you HE cannot control any of you.

We must never allow the majority to overrule the clear teaching of the Word of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Unselfish love does not exploit its object and it does not ask for anything in return.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We get the odd notion that God is showing mercy because Jesus died. No. Jesus died because God is showing mercy.
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When our Lord looked at us, He saw not only what we were -- He was faithful in seeing what we could become! He took away the curse of being and gave us the glorious blessing of becoming.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Jesus will never qualify or compromise anything he has said.

True religion is removed from diet and days, from garments and ceremonies, and placed where it belongs - in the union of the spirit of man with the Spirit of God.
