Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
ideas perception aim-of-education
Perception of ideas, rather than the storing of them, should be the aim of education.
christian lust trying
Christians alone are in a position to rescue the perishing. We dare not settle down to try to live as if things were 'normal.' Nothing is normal while sin and lust and death roam the world, pouncing upon one and another till the whole population has been destroyed.
jesus ifs
If JESUS cannot control you, HE cannot save you. And if HE cannot control ALL of you HE cannot control any of you.
men holy holy-man
A holy man isn't aware that he's holy..As soon as we begin to talk about how holy we are, we aren't holy any more.
world toys forget
The more fascinated we become with the toys of this world, the more we forget that there's another world to come.
blessing faithful saws
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.
attitude real heart
Worship is to feel in the heart . . . it is an attitude and a state of mind. It is a sustained act, subject to varying degrees of intensity and perfection . . . Real worship is, among other things, a feeling about the Lord our God . . . It is in our hearts. And we must be willing to express it in an appropriate manner. If we love the Lord and are led by His Holy Spirit, our worship will always bring a delighted sense of admiring awe and a sincere humility on our part.
forgiving desire sin
God desires to reveal to us that His capacity to forgive is bigger than our capacity to sin.
love-is self heavy
The labor of self-love is a heavy one indeed.
writing funny-things people
I find that when people haven't found God and do not know the new birth and the Spirit is not on them, yet they have the ancient impulse to worship something. If they're not educated they kill a chicken and put a funny thing on their head and dance around. If they are educated they write poetry.
worship performances
By nature, worship is not some performance we do, but a presence we experience.
kings would-be thrones
One thing is certain: the call of Christ is always a promotion. Were Christ to call a king from his throne to preach the gospel to some tribe of aborigines, that king would be elevated above anything he had known before. Any movement toward Christ is ascent, and any direction away from Him is down.
voice may speak
If you would follow on to know the Lord, come at once to the open Bible expecting it to speak to you. Do not come with the notion that it is a thing which you may push around at your convenience. It is more than a thing, it is a voice, a word, the very Word of the living God.
discipline missing today
Cultivating quietness is a missing discipline today...the quietness needed to nurture an inner life hid in Christ.
