The question is not, Do you want to go to heaven? The question is, Do you want God?
Paul Washer

When Jesus Christ comes back, it is not the liberal politicians who ought to be trembling, it's the pastors…because so many men have built their 'ministries' on the dry dead bones of unconverted church members.
Paul Washer

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.

How could we have such a low view of the gospel of Jesus Christ that we have to manipulate men psychologically to get them to come down and pray a prayer? …How many times have I heard evangelists say, “It’ll only take five minutes.”? No my dear friend, it will take your life–all of it!

Instead of telling them God has a wonderful plan for their life - tell them who God is.

Everywhere......everyone you meet....is a potential brother or sister in CHRIST.

A man is saved only by faith ... only by faith.
Paul Washer
Image
If you're going to choose your friends, you better choose them well, because when you look at your friends, you're looking at a mirror reflection. You're looking at you you are looking at you.
Paul Washer

When we realize what we were before Christ and what we deserved in that state, it further magnifies the enormity of the gospel for us.
Paul Washer
Image
When preachers teach biblically and clearly about the judgment of God and the dangers of hell, men begin to see that their greatest need is to be saved from eternal condemnation, and the more practical needs of this present age become trivial in comparison.
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!

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!
