Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
mirrors purpose reason
You are a mirror of the Almighty...this is the reason you were created...your purpose.
salvation comprehension
Many things about our salvation are beyond our comprehension, but not beyond our trust.
talking glory christ
Is it ever possible to overdo the talking about the glory of Christ? Is it ever too often to be in God's presence?
church done today
In the conduct of our public worship where is the authority of Christ to be found? The truth is that today the Lord rarely controls a service, and the influence He exerts is very small. We sing of Him and preach about Him, but He must not interfere; we worship our way, and it must be right because we have always done it that way, as have the other churches in our group.
liberty pleasure periods
Any nation which for an extended period puts pleasure before liberty is likely to lose the liberty it misused.
christian feelings want
It appears that too many Christians want to enjoy the thrill of feeling right but are not willing to endure the inconvenience of being right.
unique men thinking
We cannot grasp the true meaning of the divine holiness by thinking of someone or something very pure and then raising the concept to the highest degree we are capable of. God's holiness is not simply the best we know infinitely bettered. We know nothing like the divine holiness. It stands apart, unique, unapproachable, incomprehensible and unattainable. The natural man is blind to it. He may fear God's power and admire His wisdom, but His holiness he cannot even imagine.
believe mean men
Faith never means gullibility. The man who believes everything is as far from God as the man who refuses to believe anything.
christian lonely loneliness
Most of the world's great souls have been lonely. Loneliness seems to be one price the saint must pay for his saintliness... Always remember: you cannot carry a cross in company. Though a man were surrounded by a vast crowd, his cross is his alone and his carrying of it marks him as a man apart. Society has turned against him; otherwise he would have no cross. No one is a friend to the man with a cross.
christian prayer blessed
While we are looking at God we do not see ourselves-blessed riddance.
christian prayer humble
Leadership requires vision, and whence will vision come except from hours spent in the presence of God in humble and fervent prayer?
sympathy christian pain
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.
change horse men
Plain horse sense ought to tell us that anything that makes no change in the man who professes it makes no difference to God, either.
devil theologian stills
The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still.
