Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
men gone compromise
You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody.
expectations goodness
Always God’s goodness is the ground of our expectation.
gods-will plenty ifs
If we possess nothing, God will allow us to have plenty.
trying arms throwing
We please God most, not by frantically trying to make ourselves good, but by throwing ourselves into His arms.
ocean heaven buckets
He fills heaven and earth as the ocean fills the bucket that is submerged in it, and as the ocean surrounds the bucket so does God in the universe He fills. "The heaven of heavens cannot contain Thee." God is not contained: He contains.
heart effort trying
It is astonishing, how many difficulties clear up without any effort when the inner life gets straightened out. If half the time we spend trying to fix up outward things were spent in getting our hearts right, we would be delighted with the result. Strange as it may seem, harmony within our hearts depends mostly upon our getting into harmony with God.
kings real men
If man had written the Gospels - say Shakespeare or Eugene O'Neill - the story of the gospel would have been drastically different. They would have placed the prince in halls and palaces and had him walking among the great. They would have had him surrounded by the important and significant of the time. Potentates and kings would have been His companions. But how sweetly common was the real God-man; though He had inhabited all eternity, He had come down and was subject to the rising and the setting of the sun.
jesus feet path
We can take whatever path in worship we choose, but not all paths will end at the feet of Jesus.
teaching majority clear
We must never allow the majority to overrule the clear teaching of the Word of God.
heart people feelings
God is more concerned with the state of people's hearts than He is with the state of their feelings.
waiting busy dangerous
It is dangerous to be so busy that you have no time to wait on God.
christian exclusion bible-study
Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.
jesus humility pride
Shall it be a religion or shall it be Christ? Shall it be churchianity or shall it be Jesus Christ? Shall it be pride or shall it be humility in Jesus Christ?
want may spirit
I want to live so fully in the Spirit that...every act of my life may be an act of worship.
