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?

Image
Everywhere......everyone you meet....is a potential brother or sister in CHRIST.
Paul Washer
Image
Those who would send out thousands of questionnaires asking the unconverted what they would desire most in a worship service should realize that ten thousand unanimous opinions of carnal men do not carry the authority of one jot or tittle of God's Word.
Paul Washer

A $50 haircut, cool glasses, skinny jeans and a tattoo does not a prophet make.
Paul Washer
Image
The evidence that a person has truly opened their life to Christ is continued fellowship with Christ.
Paul Washer
Image
We find or invent the cleverest means of attributing our sins to anything or anyone outside of ourselves.
Paul Washer
Image
People who only listen to preachers have a tendency to put them on a pedestal, but those who live with preachers recognize that they are just common men.
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
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
Remember this: you must always be growing in the gospel and your knowledge of it. It is not Christianity 101, but Christianity from A to Z. You have not mastered the gospel, nor will you master it, but it will master you!
Paul Washer
Image
It is absurd to think that a man can believe in Christ, with his heart, and it not have a radical affect on the rest of his life.
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
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 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
A man is saved only by faith ... only by faith.
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
The Christian ministry is difficult, and we must not be lazy or trite. However, we often place burdens upon ourselves and make demands upon ourselves that are not according to the will of God. The more I know God and understand His perfect work on my behalf, the more I am able to rest.
Paul Washer
Image
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
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!
Paul Washer

The evidence of conversion is not a decision card filled out, it's a life being lived out.
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?
