Image
The work is hindered. The glory of God is tarnished and it is because the people of God no longer know how to discern the things of God.
Paul Washer
Image
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
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
Your best friend is the one who tells you the most truth.
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
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

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

A $50 haircut, cool glasses, skinny jeans and a tattoo does not a prophet make.
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
When Jesus Christ comes back, it is not the liberal politicians who ought to be trembling, it's the pastors…because so many men have built their 'ministries' on the dry dead bones of unconverted church members.
Paul Washer
Image
The question is not, Do you know you are a sinner? the question is this, As you have heard me preach the Gospel, has God so worked in your life that the sin you once loved you now hate?
Paul Washer
Image
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
Image
In that moment of salvation, of belief, they are opening their lives to the person of Jesus.
Paul Washer
Image
Over the epitaph of this generation it will say ENTERTAINED TO DEATH.
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
Everybody wants to go to heaven. They just don't want God to be there when they get there.
Paul Washer
Image
Why would we want fame, when God promises us glory? Why would we be seeking the wealth of the world when the wealth of heaven is ours? Why would we run for a crown that will perish with time, when we're called to win a crown that is imperishable?
Paul Washer
Image
American Christianity is based more on a godless culture than it is the word of God.
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.

The question is not, Do you want to go to heaven? The question is, Do you want God?
