More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Christian theology teaches the doctrine of prevenient grace, which briefly stated means this, that before a man can seek God, God must first have sought the man.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Unbelief is actually perverted faith, for it puts its faith not in the living God, but in dying men.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
[Prayer] takes no time, but it occupies all our time.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Thinking carries a moral imperative. The searcher for truth must be ready to obey truth without reservation or it will elude him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Holiness, as taught in the Scriptures, is not based upon knowledge on our part. Rather, it is based upon the resurrected Christ in-dwelling us and changing us into His likeness.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We modern Christians are long on talk and short on conduct.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Everything God does has purpose and intention behind that design. It is a master design, and every little thing has its proper place and function.

Maybe God is calling you to do something extraordinary that isn't on your calendar something to revive your soul!

The main thing is this: we should never blame anyone or anything for our defeats. No matter how evil their intentions may be, they are altogether unable to harm us until we begin to blame them and use them as excuses for our own unbelief.

Faith is not a once-done act, but a continuous gaze of the heart at the Triune God. Believing, then, is directing the hearts' attention to Jesus. It is lifting the mind to 'behold the Lamb of God,' and never ceasing that beholding for the rest of our lives.

Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. It wears us out by multiplying distractions and beats us down by destroying our solitude, where otherwise we might drink and renew our strength before going out to face the world again.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We must never allow the majority to overrule the clear teaching of the Word of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Without doubt, the mightiest thought the mind can entertain is the thought of God, and the weightest word in any language is its word for God.
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
Nobody ever got anything from God on the grounds that he deserved it. Haven fallen, man deserves only punishment and death. So if God answers prayer it's because God is good. From His goodness, His lovingkindness, His good-natured benevolence, God does it! That's the source of everything.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Peace of heart that is won by refusing to bear the common yoke of human sympathy is a peace unworthy of a Christian. To seek tranquility by stopping our ears to the cries of human pain is to make ourselves not Christian but a kind of degenerate stoic having no relation either to stoicism or Christianity.

Faith is not a once-done act, but a continuous gaze of the heart at the Triune God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Only the blood of Jesus can cleanse us, yet if we withhold ourselves from that blood, we will be unclean forever.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The labor of self-love is a heavy one indeed. Think whether much of your sorrow has not arisen from someone speaking slightingly of you. As long as you set yourself up as a little god to which you must be loyal, how can you hope to find inward peace?
