Millions call themselves by His name, it is true, and pay some token homage to Him, but a simple test will show how little He is really honored among them. Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who or what is ABOVE, and his true position will be exposed. Let him be forced into making a choice between God and money, between God and men, between God and personal ambition, God and self, God and human love, and God will take second place every time.

This she has not done deliberately, but little by little and without her knowledge; and her very unawareness only makes her situation all the more tragic. Aiden Wilson Tozer
One hundred religious persons knit into a unity by careful organization do not constitute a church any more than eleven dead men make a football team. Aiden Wilson Tozer
Aiden Wilson Tozer quote: "Unbelief is actually perverted faith, for it puts its faith..."
Unbelief is actually perverted faith, for it puts its faith not in the living God, but in dying men. Aiden Wilson Tozer
Hardly anything else reveals so well the fear and uncertainty among men as the length to which they will go to hide their true selves from each other and even from their own eyes. Aiden Wilson Tozer
Eschatology is the dustbin into which we sweep everything we don't want. To believe. We believe that the Lord will manifest Himself to men, but He'll do it tomorrow, or the day after, or the next millennium. Aiden Wilson Tozer
If I understand this correctly Christ taught here the alarming doctrine that the desire for honor among men made belief impossible. Aiden Wilson Tozer
