Paul David Washer

"There is no such thing as a great man of God, only weak, pitiful, faithless men of a great and merciful God."

"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?"

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

"Idolatry is when you become the source of your own joy. Poverty of spirit is a wonderful thing."

"The greatest sin you could commit is to break the greatest commandment: to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength."

"It is only against the pitch blackness of man’s radical depravity that we can begin to see the glories of the gospel."

"Men and women who are used of God, if I had only a few words to describe them, they are the passionate-weak, they are the violently-desperate."

"God does not call men to make Jesus Lord (as though they had such power), but to live in absolute submission to the Lord He has made."

"The goal of the Christian life is the pursuit of an intimate knowledge of God that leads to a greater estimation of His worth."

"We don’t have a lot of churches in America; we have a lot of really nice brick buildings on finely manicured lawns!"

"If Jesus Christ isn’t strong enough to motivate you to live biblically, you don’t know Him at all."

"Our weaknesses are not as negative as we may believe. They make us rely upon God’s grace and power for greater Christlikeness."

"Everybody wants to go to heaven. They just don’t want God to be there when they get there."

"The true convert does not receive the gospel as an addition to his previous life, but in exchange for it."

"The evidence of justification by faith is the ongoing work of sanctification through the Holy Spirit."

"Your best friend is the one who tells you the most truth."

"Submitting our lives to the Word of God is not radical Christianity, it’s basic Christianity."

"We should never present Christ to the unbeliever as the cherry on top of an already wonderful life."

"Salvation is by repentance and faith, and if you have truly believed unto salvation, you have been regenerated."

"The mark of spirituality is the fragrance of Christ in our lives and in every aspect of who we are as a person."

"There is no such thing as a continuously carnal Christian."

"The person who loves you most will tell you the most truth."

"Your weakness is a catalyst to push you to grab harder onto Christ so that you might be filled."

"In the Apostolic invitation we see, ‘Repent and believe.’"
