The Father did not turn away from His Son because He...

"The Father did not turn away from His Son because He lacked the fortitude to witness His sufferings, but because our sin was laid upon Him." Paul Washer

Jesus promises you two things:...

"Jesus promises you two things: A cross to die on and eternal life. He's everything or He's nothing." ~Paul Washer

Three indispensable disciplines

Paul Washer: 'For the young Christian -There are three indispensable disciplines -the Word, Prayer, and Separation.'

The Cross

"The cross is not a sign of our great worth, but of our great depravity... that we were so evil that the only way we could be saved is by God's Son being crushed under the full force of the wrath that was due us."
-Paul Washer

Cultural Sensitivity- To The Wind With It

"All this emergent church stuff, much of the church growth stuff, all the cultural sensitivity throwing out the window biblical sensitivity, it's just a bunch of little boys wanting to play church without the power of God on their life, and I'll stand on that statement. It's a lesser than David trying to fit himself in Saul's armor. To the wind with it. The more you trust in the arm of the flesh, the less you're going to see of the power of God."
-Paul Washer

Laboring For Reformation

"There is little need for the devil and evil men to oppose a man praying for revival unless he is also laboring for reformation."
-Paul Washer

The Inspiration and, equally important, Sufficiency of the Scriptures

"I'm going to tell you this, on judgment day, I would rather be standing in the group of liberal politicians waiting to receive my judgment than I would be wanting to stand in the group with conservative pastors in the United States of America, and I mean that.

You can thump this bible all day long, you can talk all sorts of things, but when you stand up and you can't even give a biblical invitation do not talk to me about the inspiration of Scripture. When you deal with men's hearts with trivial little credal prayers and superstitious nonsense, dont talk to me about the infallibility of Scripture unless you're going to also say its sufficient to teach me how to invite men to Christ."
-Paul Washer 

An Age of Relativism

"We live in an age of relativism, a belief system based on the absolute certainty that there are no absolute certainties. We hypocritically applaud men for seeking the truth but call for the public execution of any man who believes he has found it."
-Paul Washer 

Is It Lived Out?

"Be careful... those of us who concern ourselves with theology. The young men who think theology is extremely important... and they are right... but be very, very careful. With all your learning... what is your opinion of Jesus... and is that opinion lived out? Is it lived out?"
-Paul Washer

Our Times Are In His Hands

"You are absolutely immortal until God decides it's time for you to go home. Not all the armies in the world, their combined strength, can take out the life of one believer until God decrees it is time."
-Paul Washer

Predestination and the Sovereignty of God

For those whom He foreknew... (Romans 8:29)

"Before the foundations of the earth He knew you, and it's not because He looked in some crystal ball, or down the corridors of time and saw you in the future.The bible never speaks of a crystal ball, and it never speaks of corridors of time or God looking into a book that talks about the future... it never does. It never talks about God looking into the future.

God does not know the future because He's looked ahead and seen it... God knows the future because He's Lord over it, and directs every molecule, every fiber of being, every bit of matter towards the purpose He has ordained.

That is a God my friend.

Not a god who looks into the future and then reacts, not a god who makes choices based on choices of other men He's seen in the future.

No.

A god who is The God and Lord and Author of the future."

-Paul Washer

What can save the Church in America?

The only thing that’s going to save the Church in America–there’s only two possibilities: One is total reformation in our preaching, in our study of the word of God. Or the other is fierce horrifying persecution. That’s the only thing that’s going to save the Church in America. ~ Paul Washer
