Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
opposites errors obedience
To escape the error of salvation by works we have fallen into the opposite error of salvation without obedience.
faith spring opposites
The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are at opposite sides of the same coin.
men opposites heaven
Whoever will listen will hear the speaking heaven. This is definitely not the hour when men take kindly to an exhortation to listen, for listening is not today a part of popular religion. We are at the opposite end of the pole from there. Religion has accepted the monstrous heresy that noise, size, activity and bluster make a man dear to God.
spiritual opposites numbers
To square the records, however, it should be said that if the Calvinist does not rise as high, he usually stays up longer. He places more emphasis on the Holy Scriptures which never change, while his opposite number (as the newspapers say) tends to judge his spiritual condition by the state of his feelings, which change constantly. This may be the reason that so many Calvinistic churches remain orthodox for centuries, at least in doctrine, while many churches of the Arminian persuasion often go liberal in one generation.
believe opposites waiting
The various elements of truth stand in perpetual antithesis, sometimes requiring us to believe apparent opposites while we wait for the moment when we shall know as we are known.
christian religious exercise
I say that a Christian congregation can survive and often appear to prosper in the community by the exercise of human talent and without any touch from the Holy Spirit! All that religious activity and the dear people will not know anything better until the great and terrible day when our self-employed talents are burned with fire and only that which was wrought by the Holy Ghost will stand forever!
spiritual soul enemy
Complacency is the deadly enemy of spiritual progress. The contented soul is the stagnant soul.
expectations sacred looks
With a sacred expectation, I look for God in ALL of the circumstances of my day.
father eye world
O God and Father, I repent of my sinful preoccupation with visible things. The world has been too much with me. Thou hast been here and I knew it not. I have been blind to Thy Presence. Open my eyes that I may behold Thee in and around me. For Christ's sake, Amen.
sick
Where God is not glorified, that place is sick
religious knowing people
It's hard to rest knowing that millions of people merely carry on religious traditions but don't actually reach God.
preparation rehearsal worship
The best preparation for worship is not a rehearsal, but surrender.
monday way worship-god
If you're not worshiping God on Monday the way you [did] the day before, perhaps you're not worshiping Him at all.
faith heart journey
Faith is not merely a journey for the feet, but it is also a journey for the heart.
