Quote by A. W. Tozer

Christianity takes for granted the absence of any self-help and offers a power which is nothing less than the power of God.

Christianity takes for granted the absence of any self-help

Summary

This quote suggests that Christianity assumes that personal effort and self-help are insufficient in achieving spiritual growth or salvation. Instead, Christianity relies on the power of God to bring about transformative change in individuals' lives. It implies that Christians must rely on divine intervention rather than relying solely on their own abilities or efforts. This power, associated with God, is seen as superior and capable of achieving what human effort alone cannot.

and soon enough his head would be swimming with tales of derring-do and high adventure, tales of beautiful maidens kissed, of evildoers shot with pistols or fought with swords, of bags of gold, of diamonds as big as the tip of your thumb, of lost cities and of vast mountains, of steam-trains and clipper ships, of pampas, oceans, deserts, tundra.

A myriad of men are born; they labor and sweat and struggle; ...they squabble and scold and fight; they scramble for little mean advantages over each other; age creeps upon them; infirmities follow; ...those they love are taken from them, and the joy of life is turned to aching grief. It comes at last--the only unpoisoned gift earth ever had for them--and they vanish from a world where they were of no consequence, ...a world which will lament them a day and forget them forever.
