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.

Image
I don't want revival...I WANT CHRIST! And if we have Christ, there will be a revival.
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
Everybody wants to go to heaven. They just don't want God to be there when they get there.
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
Your best friend is the one who tells you the most truth.
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
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!

If a Work of God does NOT Continue, it was NEVER a Work of God.
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
The evidence of conversion is not a decision card filled out, it's a life being lived out.
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
The judgment of God against this nation will not be turned by a more conservative President, but by the repentance of its people.
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
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
It [salvation] is not this flu shot mentality of an invitation of the Gospel.
Paul Washer
Image
In that moment of salvation, of belief, they are opening their lives to the person of Jesus.
Paul Washer
Image
God saved you for Himself God saved you by Himself God saved you from Himself.
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 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
Christ's lordship is a blessed hope for some & a terrifying nightmare for others. Regardless of our response, it is an unalterable reality.
