Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
men thinking mind
Were we able to extract from any man a complete answer to the question, "What comes into your mind when you think about God?" we might predict with certainty the future of that man.
thinking self discovery
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.
christian-inspirational relax nerves
God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.
stars thinking opera
I can't sing a lick but that's nobody's business. God listens when I sing to Him and He thinks I am an opera star.
biblical dull sake
There is scarcely anything so dull and meaningless as Bible doctrine taught for its own sake. Truth divorced from life is not truth in its Biblical sense, but something else and something less.
successful forever pursuit
Our pursuit of God is successful just because He is forever seeking to manifest Himself to us.
mean heaven treasure
Whoever seeks God as a means toward desired ends will not find God. The mighty God, the maker of heaven and earth, will not be one of many treasures, not even the chief of all treasures. He will be all in all or He will be nothing. God will not be used.
lying knowing earth
If God is the Supreme good then our highest blessedness on earth must lie in knowing Him as perfectly as possible.
real men giving
I find that many men and women are troubled by the thought that they are too small and inconsequential in the scheme of things. But that is not our real trouble -- we are actually too big and too complex, for God made us in His image and we are too big to be satisfied with what the world offers us! ....Man is bored, because he is too big to be happy with that which sin is giving him. God has made him too great, his potential is too mighty.
heart space capacity
The widest thing in the universe is not space, it is the potential capacity of the human heart
religious advice understanding
The church has lost her testimony. She has no longer anything to say to the world. Her once robust shout of assurance has faded away to an apologetic whisper. She who one time went out to declare now goes out to inquire. Her dogmatic declaration has become a respectful suggestion, a word of religious advice, given with the understanding that it is after all only an opinion and not meant to sound bigoted. Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its culture, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.
men storm church
I would like to live to see the time when the men and woman of God - holy, separated and spiritually enlightened - walk out of the evangelical church and form a group of their own; when they get off the sinking ship and let her go down in the brackish and worldliness and form a new ark to ride out the storm.
rise-above reason rise-above-it
Faith never goes contrary to reason -- faith simply ignores reason and rises above it.
faith-in-god defined
Faith in God is to be demonstrated, not defined.
