Image
If Jesus Christ isn't strong enough to motivate you to live biblically, you don't know Him at all.
Paul Washer
Image
Next, they'll say, Do you want to go to heaven? Have you ever had anybody say, No, I'd rather go to hell. My friend, understand this, everyone wants to go to heaven. They just don't want God to be there when they get there.
Paul Washer
Image
The evidence of justification by faith is the ongoing work of sanctification through the Holy Spirit.
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
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
How many people do you know believe they're going to heaven because, they're not trusting so much in Christ as they are the sincerity of the decision they made a long time ago?
Paul Washer
Image
Holiness is not merely a feeling, state of mind, or good intention. It involves practical separation from sin and real separation unto God.
Paul Washer
Image
The evidence of conversion is not a decision card filled out, it's a life being lived out.
Paul Washer
Image
AMEN, let Him take it all! He’s worthy!
Paul Washer
Image
If following Jesus Christ doesn't cost you anything, it's because you've bought into 'American Christianity.'
Paul Washer
Image
A man is saved only by faith ... only by faith.
Paul Washer
Image
This country is no more saved than well ... it's as lost as they say in Alabama, ... as lost as a ball in tall grass.
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
Instead of telling them God has a wonderful plan for their life - tell them who God is.
Paul Washer
Image
If someone is truly converted, they will publicly confess Christ in word and deed. That does not mean presenting them in front of the church on the night of their supposed conversion.
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
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
Most people today in our churches are lost, and they demonstrate that they are lost because their entire Christianity is nothing more than, 'They made a decision.'
Paul Washer
Image
People tell me judge not lest ye be judged. I always tell them, twist not scripture lest ye be like satan

In the history of extra-biblical study and research tools there has never before been a resource as useful as the Puritan Hard Drive.
