More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
An honest man is strange when he is among dishonest men, but it is a good kind of strangeness.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We are in an age of religious complexity. The simplicity which is in Christ is rarely found among us. In its stead are programs, methods, organizations, and a world of nervous activities which occupy time and attention but can never satisfy the longing of the heart.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side it is a seizing upon, an apprehending, a conquest by the Most High God. Our 'accepting' and 'willing' are reactions rather than actions. The right of determination must always remain with God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.

What I am anxious to see in Christian believers is a beautiful paradox. I want to see in them the joy of finding God while at the same time they are blessedly pursuing Him. I want to see in them the great joy of having God yet always wanting Him.

Beauty is in the eye of the Creator.

Aiden Wilson Tozer
Pray and as you pray, surrender and as you surrender, believe.

Cultivating quietness is a missing discipline today...the quietness needed to nurture an inner life hid in Christ.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We must meet the uncertainties of this world with the certainty of the world to come.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God is never satisfied with anything less than all.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The poor quality of Christian that grows out of our modern evangelistic meeting may be accounted for by the absence of real repentance accompanying the initial spiritual experience of the converts. And the absence of repentance is the result of an inadequate view of sin and sinfulness held by those who present themselves in the inquiry room.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We pursue God because, and only because, He has first put an urge within us that spurs us to the pursuit.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When a person, yielding to God and believing the truth of God, is filled with the Spirit of God, even his faintest whisper will be worship.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
America is laughing her way to Hell.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When we have the Holy Spirit we have all that is needed to be all that God desires us to be.

In every generation the number of the righteous is small. Be sure you are among them.
