Paul Washer
Image
AMEN, let Him take it all! He’s worthy!
Paul Washer
Image
It [salvation] is not this flu shot mentality of an invitation of the Gospel.
Paul Washer
Image
The truth is this: I am a Southern Baptist, and the great majority of Southern Baptists are lost.
Paul Washer
Image
Your children will go to public school and they will be trained for somewhere around 15,000 hours in ungodly secular thought. And then they'll go to Sunday school and they'll color a picture of Noah's ark. And you think that's going to stand against the lies that they are being told?
Paul Washer
Image
I now understand more of our calling. The weakest instruments are chosen to do the greatest works so that the glory might go to God.
Paul Washer
Image
If Jesus Christ isn't strong enough to motivate you to live biblically, you don't know Him at all.

How can you learn unconditional love if you’re married to a woman who meets all your conditions?
Paul Washer

We find or invent the cleverest means of attributing our sins to anything or anyone outside of ourselves.
Paul Washer
Image
The great truths of Christianity do not belong to the professional theologians alone, but to every person who calls upon the name of Christ.
Paul Washer
Image
You may say, 'God doesn't hate anybody. God is love.' No, my friend. You need to understand something. Jesus Christ taught, the prophets taught, the apostles taught this: that apart from the grace of God revealed in Jesus Christ our Lord the only thing left for you is the wrath, the fierce anger of God because of your rebellion and your sin.
Paul Washer
Image
You cannot learn doctrine well until you follow the doctrine you learn!
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
Jesus ... HIS sheep, they know His voice and they follow Him whether you disciple them or not!
Paul Washer
Image
What can not be overcome in prayer? Answer me! What cannot be done by the hand of the Almighty? Answer me! What can be done by your feeble arms!? ANSWER ME! He can take down the iron curtain in a day, He CAN convert a nation in an hour. Call upon Him, believe Him.
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
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
Don't touch the ark of God! It is the God of Israel who is wounding people with regards to their sin. Do NOT comfort the soul that God is breaking.
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?
