In the history of extra-biblical study and research tools there has never before been a resource as useful as the Puritan Hard Drive.
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
American Christianity is based more on a godless culture than it is the word of God.
Paul Washer
Image
We have taken the glorious gospel of our blessed God and reduced it down to four spiritual laws and five things God wants you to know, with a little superstitious prayer at the end and if someone repeats it after us with enough sincerity, we popishly declare them to be born again. We've traded regeneration for decisionism.
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
People tell me judge not lest ye be judged. I always tell them, twist not scripture lest ye be like satan
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
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
A true Christian will be sensitive to the sin in their life and it will lead them to brokenness and genuine confession, but the person who says they are a Christian and are not sensitive to sin, it does not lead them to confession, a person who is that way is not a Christian.
Paul Washer
Image
God is an inexhaustible source of all we need. Our unbelief is discovered in how little we avail ourselves of this infinite fountain
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.

A $50 haircut, cool glasses, skinny jeans and a tattoo does not a prophet make.
Paul Washer
Image
Everybody wants to go to heaven. They just don't want God to be there when they get there.
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
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
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 Lord continues to empty us in order to teach us to lay aside all self-reliance, that we may cling to Christ alone.
Paul Washer
Image
I have never met an old saint who regretted having spent too much time in prayer, but I have met many who regretted having spent too little!
Paul Washer
Image
The truth is this: I am a Southern Baptist, and the great majority of Southern Baptists are lost.
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?
