A.W. Tozer Quotes: 16

  • What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.

  • I can safely say, on the authority of all that is revealed in the Word of God, that any man or woman on this earth who is bored and turned off by worship is not ready for heaven.

God’s already put me so far in debt that if I were to live one million millenniums I couldn’t pay Him for what He’s done for me.

    Man The Dwelling Place Of God
  • When we try to focus our thought upon One who is pure uncreated being we may see nothing at all, for He dwelleth in light that no man can approach unto. Only by faith and love are we able to glimpse Him as He passes by our shelter in the cleft of the rock.
