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!

More quotes by Paul Washer
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
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
Then they ask, Do you want Jesus to come into your heart? Does it bother anyone that this formula or language is not found in the New Testament?
Paul Washer
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
A Christian is not somebody who stays away from all the wicked things he loves and clings to all the righteous things he hates so that he can go to heaven. The fear of the Christian is not going to hell. The fear of the Christian is being separated from Christ.
Paul Washer
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?
Paul Washer
I don't want revival...I WANT CHRIST! And if we have Christ, there will be a revival.
Paul Washer
Possessing a correct interpretation of each individual doctrine is not sufficient we must also learn to hold each doctrine in harmony with the others.
Paul Washer
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
Christ is not knocking on the door of a sinner's heart, but on the door of a wayward church.
Paul Washer
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
If following Jesus Christ doesn't cost you anything, it's because you've bought into 'American Christianity.'
Paul Washer
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
But I got saved that way! No, you got saved in spite of that way not because of that way.
Paul Washer
We find or invent the cleverest means of attributing our sins to anything or anyone outside of ourselves.
Paul Washer
If a Work of God does NOT Continue, it was NEVER a Work of God.
Paul Washer
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
Jesus ... HIS sheep, they know His voice and they follow Him whether you disciple them or not!
Paul Washer
We are given so few years on this earth, and there are so many good things that get in the way of the best things. We must live for eternity.
Paul Washer
Maybe that is why there are not a whole lot of problems between the church and worldly culture today, because we are not confronting the culture around us.
Paul Washer
