"Oh, that God would raise up missionaries. I don’t wish the same things your parents want for you. They want for you security and insurance and nice homes. They want for you cars and respect.

And he cries out, 'Jesus Christ is Lord!' Even if it costs my son his life.

Oh when he’s 18 years old, if he says to me the same thing I said when I was a young man. “I’m going into the mountains. I’m going into the jungle.” And they say, “You can’t go there. You’re insane. It’s a war. You’re going to die.” When that little boy puts on his backpack, I’m going to pray over him and say, “Go! Go! God be with you. And if you die, my son, I’ll see you over there and I’ll honor your death.” Paul Washer

It comes down to the fact that the biggest problem in America is NOT

‎"When you're walking through a field and you can look down at a mud puddle and see a bunch of tadpoles swimming around in that mud puddle, and it causes you to fall on your knees and worship God with reverance - you're walking with God." ~ Paul Washer

‎'I don't have a vision except for Jesus Christ. I don't want to be anything. I don't want to be a bigshot. I don't want to be important. I don't want to conquer the world. I just want to be pleasing to God today and that is enough. That is enough, and strive as I might, I ...haven't obtained that goal so why should I look for another?' Paul Washer

“A little boy… Andrew Meimann… the Muslim shot him five times through the stomach and left him on a sidewalk simply because he cried out, ‘I am so afraid but I can not deny Jesus Christ. Please don’t kill me but I will not deny Him!’ And he... died in a pool of blood. And you talk about being a radical Christian because you wear a t-shirt… because you go to a conference! I’m talking about holiness! I’m talking about godliness!”

“I wish… you know what a move of God would be in this place? If all of you came under conviction… If I myself came under conviction of the Holy Spirit… We fell down on our faces and weeped! Because we watched the things that God hates… because we wear the things God hates! Because we act like the world, look like the world, smell like the world! Because we do the very things… and we know not that we do these things because we do not know the Word of God!” Paul Washer

‎"One of the signs of Christians is that they are not entrapped and enslaved to things of this present evil age, but they are set free to seek Christ in his glory and follow him." Paul Washer

‎"there is one gate; there is one God; there is one mediator between God and man; and His name is Jesus Christ. It’s not multiple choice.
Not every road leads to Rome. As a denomination, we have always told people what Jesus told people: I a...m the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through me. So, I praise God for that, that the only way any human being on this earth will ever be saved is through Jesus Christ, and that is all. Because you need to realize the Bible says, For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, and you have no idea what that means, that we were born radically depraved and God hating, that we would have never sought God, never come to God. We have rebelled against God, broken every law. It’s not just an issue that you have sinned. The issue is you’ve never done anything but sinned. The Bible says in the prophets that even our greatest works are like filthy rags before God. And because of that, you know what we deserve? The wrath of God. The holy hatred of God." Paul Washer

"He says here, as we go on, verse 16: You will know them by their fruits. How will you know a false prophet? In the wider application here and all of Scripture, how will you know if someone is a genuine Christian? By their fruit. By their ...fruit, my dear friend. Look at your life. Look at the way you walk. Look at the way you talk. Look at the passions of your heart. Is Jesus in there somewhere? Or is He just some accessory that you add on to your life? Is He just something that you do on Wednesday or Sunday? Is He something that you give a mental assent to? Is He an accessory or is He the very center of your life? And what is the fruit that you’re bearing? Do you look like the world? Act like the world? Do you have and experience the same joys that the world experiences? Can you love sin and relish it? Can you love rebellion and relish it? Then you know not God. You will know them by their fruit. God has the power to change them." Paul Washer

"What you need to know is that Salvation is by faith and faith alone in JESUS CHRIST. And faith alone in Jesus Christ is proceeded and followed by repentance." Paul Washer

"Many of the things that you love to do god hates ,did you know that?" Paul Washer

"You stand upon Christ or you do not stand upon anything at all." Paul Washer

‎"God saved you from God. It was God who was arrayed in the armour and weaponry of a soldier. Coming after you. In His holiness, and His justice. God coming after you. To do vengeance against you. To cause you to pay for all that you have d...one against Him, and He is able to return His sword to the sheath now because Christ has died. Christ saved you from the wrath of an almighty God. Hell is just a revelation of that. I always tell people this. God saved you from Himself, God saved you for Himself and God saved you by Himself." Paul Washer

"Judgement is not for sinners, it's for sinners who will not repent." Paul Washer

‎"Do you wonder about the trials in your life? Well let me just let you know the purpose of them is to cut away everything in your life, so that Jesus does become your life, and its worth it." Paul Washer

"Preaching is not the end, it is a means to the end, and the end is worship in true holiness. You say, "Oh just singing songs." No. Worship is walking. Worship is talking. Worship is living. Worship is loving. Worship is dying to self and being a servant. We need preaching, but ...preaching without transformation is just clutter. Paul Washer

‎"What does it mean to recieve Jesus? Its a scandal thats what it means! It means to eat His flesh and drink His blood. It means to take Him in. You receive Him as the very substanance of your life. He is not an accessory. He is not a part ...of your life He is not a thing you do. He is your life. Now how does that apply to you? Be honest. Do you go buy a fine piece of clothing or dress or some sort of thing and then you go out and immediately your looking for accessories. Shoes and belts and buckles bags to put things in. I want you to know if i were to write what i see i would have to say that is the relationship many people have, so called professors of faith, the relationship they have with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Hes like an accessory. And let me just step back for a moment." Paul Washer

‎"Yes you have problems, yes you have needs. There are complex things going on in your life no one knows about.They're addressed in Scripture and there is wisdom you need to learn and wisdom you need to obey. But at the same time all of this must be built upon the person of Jesus Christ...or its nothing more than legalist self-centered principles." Paul Washer

‎"We must base our lives on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Why must i love my wife? Because Christ has died. Why must she be more important to me than the ministry? Because Christ has died. Why must i be truthful in my dealings with other men? Because Christ has died.When my world is rocked and the very foundations human props are pulled out why must i be strong? Christ has died. Yea he has Risen again. So it is all based upon that, and that is where we must go." Paul Washer

‎"I cant stand it when preachers talk about getting practicle. they will talk about theological Truths as though were some pie in the sky unrealistic thing that could effect no ones life and then they'll move on and say, "now lets get onto the stuff thats really going to effect our life." Well you can get alot of people in a building that way but you cant build a Church that way. You must understand the Gospel and spend the rest of your life understanding that Gospel." Paul Washer

‎"God cannot simply forgive. The law.. the righteous Law.. demands that the
sinner die. It demands it; you just can't push that away....The only way that God can forgive sinful men , is if God who made the Law, and God who demands satisfaction, if He Himself comes down and pays the ...penalty.God in order to forgive the wicked and still be just, He must die in the wicked's place." Paul Washer

‎"Jesus is all we need!" (man)"Young man, Jesus is all we have. Outside of Christ, you have nothing to do with God. And God has nothing to do with you, except judgement." (Paul Washer)

‎"If you're a Christian, you're not a Christian because when Jesus Christ was on that cross - the Romans and Jews beat Him up. If you're a Christian - your sins are paid for, because when He was on that tree, He bore the sins of His people. And God, His own Father, crushed Him under the full force of His wrath - all the wrath that should have been poured out on you; God crushed His only begotten Son in your place." Paul Washer

‎"You say, 'The most important thing on the face of the earth is to know Jesus Christ.' That is not true. The most important thing on the face of the earth is that Jesus Christ knows you! Do you know Jesus? Does Jesus know you?" Paul Washer

"A strange sense of security comes over you when your life is put at risk for the sake of the gospel that would make you want to fight hell with a water pistel." Paul Washer

You know how to tell people about 5 spiritual laws and how to lead people in decisions even though God is a million...miles from what you're doing...but you don't know much about the Gospel" Paul Washer

is the person who is an absolute slave to an absolutely perfect master." Paul Washer

"One of the greatest distinguishing marks of a false prophet is that he will
always tell you what you want to hear, he will never rain on your parade. He will get you clapping, he will get you jumping, he will make you dizzy, he will keep you entertained, and he will present a ...Christianity to you that will make your church look like a six flags over Jesus!" Paul Washer

‎"Salvation is not so easy a caveman could do it. Our salvation is so difficult that only GOD can do it." Paul Washer

"People say, 'The cross is a sign of how much man is worth.' That is not true. The cross is a sign of how depraved we really are." Paul Washer

The greatest privilege of a Christian is to be like Jesus Christ" Paul Washer

"The question is not whether you would like to pray this prayer and ask Jesus to come into your heart — after all, you know, the handle to your heart is on the inside and if you do not open it Jesus cannot come in. My friend, Jesus is Lord of your heart and if He wants to come in, ...He will kick the door down." Paul Washer

‎"The greatest heresy in the American evangelical and Protestant church is that if you pray and 'ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart', He will definitely come in." Paul Washer

‎"Jesus said you will know Christians by their fruit. As soon as someone says that I always see someone in the congregation and their just thinking theyre going, "Judge not lest ye be judged", and I always go, "and twist not Scripture lest ...ye be like Satan." Because thats exactly what youre doing. The only verse that most people ever memorize and that out of context. Judge not lest ye be judged means don't be a pharisee who with hatred jealousy and religious animosity in your heart you criticize everyone in hopes of tearing them down so you can step on theyre broken bodies and achieve a greater renown in your religion. Cause the same Jesus who said judge not lest ye be judged says you will know them by their fruit you will know them by their fruit. And Paul the apostle said test yourself." Paul Washer
