More quotes by Paul Washer

Image
Salvation is a work of God to show His glory. That’s why He’s not going to let it fail.
Paul Washer
Image
God does not call men to make Jesus Lord (as though they had such power), but to live in absolute submission to the Lord He has made.
Paul Washer
Image
I have given God countless reasons not to love me. None of them has been strong enough to change Him.
Paul Washer
Image
If Jesus Christ isn't strong enough to motivate you to live biblically, you don't know Him at all.
Paul Washer
Image
If the devil walks in and starts pointing out all kinds of things about you, you yawn. And you go, 'You don’t even know the half of it.'
Paul Washer
Image
The moment when you take your first step through the gates of hell, the only thing you will hear is all of creation standing to its feet and applauding and praising God because God has rid the earth of you. That's how not good you are.
Paul Washer
Image
The evidence that a person has truly opened their life to Christ is continued fellowship with Christ.
Paul Washer
Image
We cannot convince a man to believe any more than we can raise the dead. Such things are the work of God's Spirit. Men are brought to faith only through the supernatural working of God, and He has promised to work-not through human wisdom or intellectual expertise, but through the preaching of Christ crucified and resurrected from the dead!
Paul Washer
Image
The evidence of justification by faith is the ongoing work of sanctification through the Holy Spirit.
Paul Washer
Image
Possessing a correct interpretation of each individual doctrine is not sufficient we must also learn to hold each doctrine in harmony with the others.
Paul Washer
Image
If we judge our lives by what we know or by what we say, we can easily deceive ourselves into thinking that we are something we are not it is wiser to evaluate ourselves by the amount of truth we actually live. This is very humbling.
Paul Washer
Image
Christ's lordship is a blessed hope for some & a terrifying nightmare for others. Regardless of our response, it is an unalterable reality.
Paul Washer
Image
Instead of telling them God has a wonderful plan for their life - tell them who God is.
Paul Washer
Image
Again, the moment a person calls on the Lord he is saved. But the evidence is not that one time in their life they were sincere when they prayed a prayer. The evidence of their salvation is ... is there genuine repentance? Is there faith? And do both those evangelical graces continue on in their life and grow?
Paul Washer
Image
It [salvation] is not this flu shot mentality of an invitation of the Gospel.
Paul Washer
Image
The question is not whether you would like to pray this prayer and ask Jesus to come into your heart - after all, you know, the handle to your heart is on the inside and if you do not open it Jesus cannot come in. My friend, Jesus is Lord of your heart and if He wants to come in, He will kick the door down.
Paul Washer
Image
Tell them that everything in their life is going to have to bend to His will. Repent and believe.
Paul Washer
Image
We deal five minutes with a person and their conversion and then we spend the next fifty years trying to disciple a goat into a sheep. I'm not saying this because I'm angry. I'm saying this because countless people are being deceived.
Paul Washer
Image
We have taken that truth, that if you truly believe and you confess Christ even if it costs you your life ... we have taken that beautiful truth and reduced it down to, If you pray a little prayer before a bunch of people in a church in America, you can be guaranteed you were saved if you think you were sincere.

God saved you for Himself God saved you by Himself God saved you from Himself.
