Maybe that is why there are not a whole lot of problems between the church and worldly culture today, because we are not confronting the culture around us.
Paul Washer
Image
Entering in the narrow gate is allowing Him to define your life, and not in general terms. See, there's your problem. 'Oh, Jesus is everything to me, and Jesus is Lord.' Okay, specifically though, explain to me what that means: what has it cost you, how have you changed your life from the course the rest of the world is walking in?
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
The problem is, even when we preach the Gospel correctly, then we go to this thing on how to invite men and it's not biblical or historical. We get them to jump through some evangelical hoops and say, yes to the appropriate questions and we pope-ishly announce them to be saved.
Paul Washer
Image
I would not trade the difficult years for all the prosperity in the world. God knows what each one of us must suffer in order to be conformed to the image of Christ.
Paul Washer
Image
But I got saved that way! No, you got saved in spite of that way not because of that way.
Paul Washer
Image
If following Jesus Christ doesn't cost you anything, it's because you've bought into 'American Christianity.'
Paul Washer
Image
You love to listen to the very same things that nailed your supposed Savior to the tree?
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
Can you honestly tell me that your great desire is to be holy? Can you honestly tell me your great desire is to not be like the world, but to be like Jesus Christ? Because if you cannot, you should be afraid. Those who love the world do not have the love of the Father (1 John 2:15).
Paul Washer
Image
All the decisions you makehow many of those decisions are based on you doing simply what's right in your own eyes, and how many times specifically have you gone to Scripture looking for the answer, with regard to anything?
Paul Washer
Image
A man is saved only by faith ... only by faith.
Paul Washer
Image
Jesus ... HIS sheep, they know His voice and they follow Him whether you disciple them or not!
Paul Washer
Image
All my weak days have a common cause - I have neglected communion with God through my neglect of the Scriptures & prayer. When will I learn?
Paul Washer
Image
Anytime your banner becomes anything other than Jesus Christ you ought to be afraid of Hell. If your banner is “I'm a Calvinist”, if your banner is “I'm a homeschooler”, if your banner is this, that, or anything else, if you're rallying under any other name than Jesus Christ you're in danger. You are in danger!
Paul Washer
Image
You are a steward of every moment, of every talent, of every gift, of every resource that God has given you. Chose wisely what you do today!
Paul Washer
Image
The devil would gladly give a Bible to every man and promote obedience to its commands if in exchange we would surrender to him the Gospel
Paul Washer
Image
Everywhere......everyone you meet....is a potential brother or sister in CHRIST.
Paul Washer
Image
I don't want revival...I WANT CHRIST! And if we have Christ, there will be a revival.
Paul Washer
Image
We are given so few years on this earth, and there are so many good things that get in the way of the best things. We must live for eternity.
Paul Washer
