Quote

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.

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
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
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
We cannot convince a man to believe any more than we can raise the dead. Such things are the work of God's Spirit. Men are brought to faith only through the supernatural working of God, and He has promised to work-not through human wisdom or intellectual expertise, but through the preaching of Christ crucified and resurrected from the dead!

You cannot learn doctrine well until you follow the doctrine you learn!
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
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
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
When we realize what we were before Christ and what we deserved in that state, it further magnifies the enormity of the gospel for us.
Paul Washer
Image
If following Jesus Christ doesn't cost you anything, it's because you've bought into 'American Christianity.'
Paul Washer
Image
You are a steward of every moment, of every talent, of every gift, of every resource that God has given you. Chose wisely what you do today!
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.'

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
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.

The truth is this: I am a Southern Baptist, and the great majority of Southern Baptists are lost.

People tell me judge not lest ye be judged. I always tell them, twist not scripture lest ye be like satan
Paul Washer

Those who would send out thousands of questionnaires asking the unconverted what they would desire most in a worship service should realize that ten thousand unanimous opinions of carnal men do not carry the authority of one jot or tittle of God's Word.
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!

A man is saved only by faith ... only by faith.
Paul Washer

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?
