Quote

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.

More quotes by 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
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
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
We must refuse to lean upon the broken staff of human wisdom & cling to the gospel alone as the power of God to save a hardened humanity.
Paul Washer
Image
Look to the fields white unto harvest pray for the fields prepare for the fields go to the fields or support those who go.
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
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
It [salvation] is not this flu shot mentality of an invitation of the Gospel.
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
Jesus ... HIS sheep, they know His voice and they follow Him whether you disciple them or not!
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
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
Image
We deal five minutes with a person and their conversion and then we spend the next fifty years trying to disciple a goat into a sheep. I'm not saying this because I'm angry. I'm saying this because countless people are being deceived.
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
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
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
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
You cannot learn doctrine well until you follow the doctrine you learn!
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
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
