I thought i knew the truth and was saved since age 10, but when i heard Paul Washer preach, it was so hard, but I now am truly saved. I truly now know that it's so much more than a sinners prayer. It's Ezekiel 36.. it's the TRANSFORMING POWER OF GOD that saved me. Not my efforts. And in response to Him changing me, and saving me I live to glorify Him in everything I do.
Many followed him just to see his Miracles and be healed Then many turned away Only his disciples stayed Where would we go thou has the Words of eternal life!
It's a very powerful message. Paul Washer is one of the best preachers of our times and he is brave enough to tell you the truth. You should listen all of his teachings. Holy Spirit is working in him, there is no doubt about it. If only there were more men like him in our churches.
Pastor Washer , you are a great preacher, needed more than ever in these times of disbelief and sin, thank you for your teachings that speak many truths.📖✝️🙏
What a wonderful, amazing and true message. Thank you Paul for all you are doing. I was granted to know what it means and how it feels to be rejected by God and it was the most horrible, paralysing and unimaginable experience I ever had. The feeling of rejection was so hard to stand that I could not even breathe. There is nothing most horrible in life than to be rejected and cursed by God Himself. Believe and trust Paul Washer, he is teaching the true Gospel.
He is truely a vessel of God..takes no short cuts, truth be told,isn't always easy to hear,but it's what we need to hear and know.hard core truth..if all preachers can do this,sooo much more people will be saved..he leaves no stone unturned when it comes to speaking the harsh reality of the Bible..
When on earth, a person in front of the judge is sentenced “guilty” and faces death, if someone comes and pleads the judge to let him be the substitutionary person to die in the place of the guilty and fulfill the sentence for him, and is allowed to do so, he dies but is not the real criminal, he is not called criminal , he is still an innocent person who is paying the sentence for the real one. He doesn’t become a criminal, he becomes an innocent , loving savior. And the real criminal will walk out of the court, not righteous , still a criminal, but a forgiven criminal saved by the grace of an innocent man.!📖✝️❤️🙏
I'm trying to be Christian (maybe I am) but I struggle to grasp the idea of our sins being imputed to Christ or his righteousness being imputed to us. I am somewhat able to comprehend one explanation, but I'm not sure it's accurate: That our faith in Christ gives us the space/time/motivation/means to actually become righteous in the hereafter. Thoughts?
Hey, it's all about the significance of the blood. God created us that way. Blood represents life in the spiritual realm. This is why in the old testament, when people sinned, they spiritually died. In order for them to be alive again ( spiritually) they need to kill a living thing in order to take its life. However since we humans are much more important and valuable than animals, the life of an animal would bring us back to life spiritually, but only for a small period of time. We can imagine than a person, when giving a sacrifice, clings to the life of that sacrifice. So for animal sacrifices, we'd be clinging to that animal's life, which isn't enough to fully redeem a human being's dead life. Then comes Jesus. Since He was perfect, He was the perfect sacrifice. By dying on the cross as a sacrifice, He offers us His ETERNAL life. This is why we can now have an eternal life and not a short temporary earthly life like the animal's. So to answer your question, all the "benefits" of living a perfect sinless life like Jesus, are related to the value of His blood, that was shed for us to cling unto its life. So by accepting His sacrifice and by clinging more and more to Him, we get to benefit from all that His pure blood gets to offer us. God now sees us righteous because when He looks at us, He now sees in us the life of Jesus to which we had access through the blood shed by his sacrifice. I hope this was helpful, I tried my best :)
David stopped following and obeying God for Bathsheba..... He SUFFERED consequences WONT WE? God DOESNT change. Consequences for Sin WONT either. On Earth or getting into Heaven.
I need some help with this...If Jesus asked for all the debts, then why did he ask "Why have you forsaken me?"...and if our sins were imputed onto Christ, who can He remain the spotless lamb of God...would Jesus then be tainted with our sin?? I ask in sincerity, not blasphemy.
He didn’t personally sin. He was treated the way every sinner who He died for deserved. Essentially the LORD Jesus Christ took the infinite suffering of hell. Repeatedly. For EVERY sinner who He purchased. He didn’t sin himself. Imputation is to treat as if it belonged to you. Jesus was imputed sin. The believer is imputed righteousness. What’s more. His perfect life sacrificed this way is the true sacrifice that never needs to be repeated It cleansed the believer from all their sin. Actual cleansing and actual dealing with the guilt. God has dealt with the punishment. God has created real righteousness. The matter was settled with Almighty Finality by the savior. He commands you and I to repent and believe. Even you. Even I
@whosedoingwhat i feel sorrow 4 you, u obviously do not truly know JESUS personally, because if u did, u wouldnt be ranting and arguing with these people, and pauls message wouldnt offend you. all good things come from above which makes your arguing/strife is not from above. knowing JESUS is pure joy! ill pray 4 u, dont bother trying to coax me into a ridiculous debate, i wont waste my time, my time is for the LORD praise Him!
@fedja17 Iv died many times. I just can't remember. So have you. Look in the mirror and ask yourself. Who am I?Everything is bullshit. Ask yourself are you really truelly Free. I know your not. Religion,Corperation,Government, and Money. These are the problem we have on earth. Take all this away. You will see the true you inside and out. There is no equality in this world. We need equality for all humanity. No border, let the animals free. Stop killing and destroying. There will be nothing.
@evandrigor Sorry to hear about your painful experience. But have you ever wondered why it takes the death of a loved one for one to even PONDER the purpose and existence of God? Btw, Jesus was not a 'white man', please don't let the opinions of MAN represent God. Why don't you try talking to God yourself? Seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened :)
@fedja17 In my view your Greed will get the best of you. Thats the reality of it. Simple to see. Why thank you. For a Christian why do you act like the devil. Don't you repect other. Or do you do that in a church.
@171Family Check out this website carm( . )org/questions/about-jesus/why-did-jesus-cry-out-my-god-my-god-why-have-you-forsaken-me ..your 2nd question...The punishment for our sins were imputed to Jesus although He never sinned himself while on earth which satisfied & pleased God but it did not taint Him. He just took our place and had to die because the wages of sin is death. Also going by scripture, He later rose from the grave bc He never sinned Himself (death could not hold Him!)
@SmileLoveForgive Well what do we have here?-- yet another a laboratory specimen of deluded, brainwashed Christian cultist dementia. You need serious deprogramming for you really seem lost in your cartoon fantasy land. There is no Satan, cosmic foes, gods or any other such cartoon characters depicted in your book of mythology. It's all fabricated bullshit that has seized control of your mind. Don't be a willing slave or a victim of fraud; reality is always there waiting for you to rediscover.
@Gook987 sounds like you've witnessed hatred from Christians. who hasn't. But I wouldn't make the extremely sad mistake of putting every passionate Christian in that box. If you are truly a passionate Christian, Love will not allow you hate anyone. And, if u really believe in the Bible, there is simply no such thing as taking it too seriously... =)
@adtc No, I don't because their is no point in doing so. It is impossible for a Christian to convince a non-believer to accept Christ. It takes a movement of God to do that. 90% of the so called Atheists I deal with are dogmatic, arrogant, rude and want nothing but to stomp out Christianity in place of their beliefs.
@Gook987 Homosexuals is part of the reason why Jesus Christ died. Because of the sin of homosexuality. God DOES hate homosexuality. And He hates it enough that He destroyed 2 entire cities because of it. If you do not repent, you will soon find out how much He hates homosexuality and sin....
the bible says don't be wise in your own eyes, that are stripped naked by sin. Just as Adam and Eve were stripped naked because they ate the apple of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil but didn't take heed to GOD's instruction.
The judgement for rejecting the only BEGOTTEN not made Son of God! Their hope of salvation! We are to be in the ministry of reconciliation IICor.5:18-20 Read Eph.all, Eph3:6;Eph.3:9; Eph.3:11
satan's gosple is being preached today because of those stupid prospardy preachers(pimps). When it comes to worshipping GOD it is so hard why because we are really under attack the GOD breathed gosple is now a scandel.
@camaro02girl I'ts a beautiful message of hope actually.. if you are saved by Christ you will rejoice in this message, if not... well then you will be condemned by this messege, and therefore hate it.
since when is it any person's business to judge a person just because they're not proper or morally correct with this world SO WHAT! isn't it Jesus who we struggle to know and honor and reverence.
@jeremyroxursox Well, you certain implied you were an Atheist with your little rant. In the video it looks like Paul Washer is preaching in a church. Are you drunk or something?
@GetMurked88 Why are you here? It doesn't look to me like your living to the fullest...it looks to me like God is calling you and you don't wanna answer! Wake up!!
Jesus didn't die on the cross for everyone who believes in him. He taught that obedience is required to enter his kingdom: Matthew 12:46-50 says: "While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.” He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” Jesus also warned: Matthew 5:30 "And if your right hand causes you to stumble, (sin) cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell." Remember also that the five foolish virgins believed in Jesus, but he rejected them.
Jesus also said that on that day many will say Lord Lord didn't i cast out demons in your name, heal the sick in your name etc.. and He said to them depart from me you workers of iniquity, The only ones getting in at the ones who keep their ear to His heart, have a close relationship and do the will of His Father. To know the will of God requires intimacy, dying to self, loving Him more than anything. And many want the spotlight in service but few want the humble contrition of crucifixion of the flesh daily to seek the will of God the Father.
I cannot understand how people think that because they pray the sinners prayer that they don't have to follow anything but the 10 commandments. And they don't want to truly follow them. Anything the Lord said You will NOT means we shouldn't even look at it or listen to it. But we watch the old westerns on tv, full of murder and hatred , robbery and rape, and defrauding others and think because we aren't doing it that we are innocent. We are not even supposed to look on those things. We should WANT to give our lives consecrated to Him for His use not out of duty but out of heartfelt devotion and gratefulness for His love.
The Holy Spirit is the one that works in us to help cleanse us of our unrighteousness. We can follow Law as much as we want but without change of heart Law is works and we do not get saved by works "lest anyone should boast". We are saved by Grace through faith in Our Lord Jesus Christ. Plus righteousness was imputed to us like Paul Washer says based upon the work of Our Lord Jesus.
I need help repenting I'm weak. I ask God to help but my sins and iniquities stand imbetween my prayers and God. Someone please help me to understand how to fix this. Please before its too late
I read your comment my friend and it hurt my heart. I too struggle with fear and anguish over being able to truly repent. Please try to realize that you have to cry out to God, I mean quite literally, cry out to Him, beseech Him, ask Him for exactly what you need. Don't hold back, tell Him in prayer you are afraid if you are, tell Him you don't know what to do, tell Him you want to be saved, tell Him you want to repent and you need Him to give you what it is that you need in order to for you to be able to do this. To take away the complacency, the apathy, the pride, the hard heartedness. Remember, it is He that will accomplish these things in you, but you must seek Him. Seek Him fervently, meaning pray honestly, pray from your heart. Neither you or I will ever be able to repent of our sins without His redeeming work in us, therefore we must ask Him. I know you said that you have done that and I truly understand there must be times when you feel there is no hope. Please keep trying, be as the woman Jesus speaks about who persistently petitioned the judge for justice until she finally got it. I say this as much to you as I do myself because I struggle with this too. My heart goes out to you friend, please put your faith and trust in Jesus, you cannot fix this. Neither can I, only He can.
@Brightstarblog7 Amen! Jesus said that if you love Him you will keep His commandments (John 14:15). That does not leave room for sin. The true believer loves Jesus and keeps His word (John 14:23).
27:51 I think it's interesting that even when Jesus Christ became a curse for us that he could still see GOD that his eyes were still able to peer into heaven before he died because he was sinless. Before Adam sinned and was cast out of the garden of eden he was also sinless doesn't it seem funny that our culture takes the sinless perfection Adam instead of GOD's son Jesus Christ.
You recognize you're weak and need help. Jesus Christ is your savior. Your definition of repenting needs clarification. You agree with God in your heart and mind about your condidtion. Good. Now this is the work of the Father, to believe on Him whom the Father has sent. Trust in Christ, never stop, no matter what happens, no matter what you go through. Pray for help, read your Bible, never stop, seeking Him. If you seek Him with your whole heart then He will be found.
@claptonstratgreen1 Have you accepeted Jesus as your saviour? If not, please read the Bible. KJV preferible. But read all the new testament 1st. Read everything Jesus did and his still doing. 1st you have to understand the puspose of Jesuschrist in our life. Why we need to repent and why he is the only way. I know it has been 3 months since yor comment. I am here to help . God Bless You!!!
George Carlin - Religion Is Bullshit (watch it) I feel bad for all of the patheticly preyed upon losers that fall for this bullshit. Get your heads out of your asses and live life, religion is nonsense and isn`t relevant in the 21st century. Sure, it helped people in the past, and it held civilizations together, but holy SHIT people take this stuff too seriously. Im sure it makes some people feel all warm and fuzzy inside, but grow the fuck up and make your own decisions in life. Jesus.
@shandy068 You take the bible seriously? Could you demonstrate that? It's interesting to see that you make believing the bible as conditional to being a Christian. So.... John 14:12 Seriously.
2:55 - "You must be filed with the Holy Spirit and then witnessing won't be a work, it will be an outflow of that great power moving within you.." Amen!
We just don't get it. He drank the cup! Thank you so much for another convicting and powerful message from my favorite preacher. We need more like him to preach the real Gospel of Jesus Christ.
@Sofa3301 Well you're right on one thing, Christianity is completely incapable of fitting in with this world's views. It is rejected, hated, it doesn't "tolerate" or come in a "light version". I do not agree with, "I am holier than you" bashing- but if what you speak of is a person whom proclaims the true gospel- well you're anger makes sense and I am glad that it provoked something in you.
Don't anyone follow Christ who has not been called out of this world by Him. If you follow Christ without being called you're waisting your time and life. Guys with ties try to build kingdoms (churches) with the uncalled and they then "teach" them how to be Christians.....it's all deception. Most Christians have not been called and are in for a big surprise after death. Sunday school, christian schools and colleges are false convert factories.
Wow! Thanks be to my Lord and savior that He stepped in, became sin to take judgement in my place, and saved me from the wrath of God! Its so easy to neglect the very essential details of what Christ had to endure for the souls of humanity. My God!!! How sinful i am!!! Thank you for legally seeing me as righteous! Please keep the at the fore of my mind always...not 1 is a righteous being...NOT 1!
They look at the way Adam was so perfectly made that they focus on that instead of the destructive affects of sin and that Adam also fell from grace after he sinned, his life was no longer perfect but was cursed untill he eventually drifted away from GOD instead of returning to the father he chose to play in his iniquity with Eve and feeling the passions and lusts of the flesh untill he became spiritually dead.
@TrustkillProductionz You coudn't be more confused and ill taught and WRONG. By whose authority and word do you speak this? NOT the bible! To be saved by Grace through Faith is to trust in the FINISHED work on the cross, too rest in Christ from your works. If it be works then it is no more Grace(unmerited favor with God).
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. James 1:27 a religious person is someone who is not influenced by the world but goes around helping those in need :)
This is so true it is all about Christ. Talking people into repeating a prayer is like Jim Jones talking people into mass suicide. Saying the prayer is like drink the koolaid. It is about true faith in Christ thats it. And that faith will bring about great works.
People who haven't repented of their sins and given their life to Jesus Christ to be covered by his blood in this New Marriage Covenant are still under God's Wrath!! Because God can't see you through Jesus Christ's blood like when Father looks at those in Christ. God said without blood their is no forgiveness, that's why Jesus gave us his pure blood, so now God's wrath is replaced by blessings and the curses are taken away. No more deliberate sins.
@Gook987 I was wondering what made you go from being a Christian or Catholic to Not believing in God at or Atheist? Just wondering...was it something you read,heard? Or is it a result of your experiences? Thanks
pugandspencer1 pt2 We follow Pauls Gospel as you can read in His letters start with Eph.3 we are "The Body of Christ, He(Christ) is the Head and God is making one new man Jew & Gentile through this period of Grace. A new man in one no partition and Jesus the Head . We are FILLED with the Holy Spirit at the time of our Trust/Belief in Jesus's deity as the Son of God and finished work on cross and Resurrection sitting on Right hand of God(power & authority) Who's arguing w/anyone? ICor.13: 1-13
2) Which works will you stand on since God says all our works are filthy rags. It is the shed blood and resurrection sitting at the right hand of God...The Godman, Very God and Very man who sits there waiting until Grace has ended(last person enters the body of Christ Eph.3 hidden in God before the foundations of the earth The Mystery) and judgement on the Jews and world begins.
Paul washer is right it is a superficial age we are living in but we are still to pursue GOD and stop admiring men and following them in that darn vanity fair and listen to the words of the LORD our GOD.
On 51:39, "Abraham called that place YHVH (Jehovah) Jireh" (Genesis 22:14). Yet, hundreds of years later, Jehovah told Moses, "I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by my name YHVH (Jehovah) I did not make myself known to them" (Exodus 6:3).
i always say to myself, Christ must be glorified not a may not should but must. What he did not even Angels can explain. oo GLORY TO GOD, JESUS CHRIST BE GLORIFIED, BE GLORIFIED. I AM NOT AFRAID TO TESTIFY OF YOUR GLORY. AMEN. LORD TAKE IT ALL, TAKE IT ALL
The bible is enough nothing else even if you die for it at least some will listen and take heed to the spirit of GOD and will follow GOD in repentance and faith. The ones who don't listen never wanted to know GOD because they loved themselves more than GOD.
when abrahams son put up no struggle it was the hands of GOD on both abraham and issac that whole time, issac saw the faith his father had and trusted his father the whole way even to death the same goes with us and our GOD's faith in us.
The sign of Yeshua at the cross. They put a sign on the cross above Him. It gave His name and the crime He had committed, “Yeshua of Nazareth, and King of the Jews” in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. In the Hebrew, there are four words to say this. The first letter of those four words is Yod, Hey, Vav, Hey. That spells the name of God announced to Moses at the burning bush. God said that was His memorial name that was not be taken in vain. God also told Moses that he was to declare “I AM” had sent him to the children of Israel. When Yeshua spoke of His future death, He said that when He was lifted up (the crucifixion) that they would see I AM. Yeshua was saying that He was the God who spoke to and sent Moses to Egypt. When opportunity to speak with my Jewish brethren, I would ask them if they believe that God sent Moses-do they believe that God gave him signs to confirm him being sent. When they answer yes, I then ask why don’t they believe in Yeshua then; He did the same signs. Author Monty Judah.
this preaching speaks about the cost of not following GOD from the video name itself... THIS IS TRUE! EVERYONE BE PREPARED FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD IS NEAR!
Am glad to have accepted Jesus Christ and to have the Grace to turn to Him In Prayer Sanctification is a life long process and God is so patient and loving to me. God bless you Paul.
fail...he preaches that the gospel is enough, but he forgets that good works must also be done (James 2:21 "faith without works is dead")...all I've heard so far are his preaching but where are his works...there is more to Christianity than just being evangelistic...imagine if Jesus' parable about the good samaritan instead being not a helper but some other choice of decision...what would happen to the dying man...now dont get me wrong,
pugandspencer1 you are doing the one thing you are NOT to do, judge a believer's faih. God will sperate the wheat from the tares! I have no idea what you are talking about. My point is we are not the Jews, the sign people, the covenant people. They are NOT the church, but they are the assemblies(poorly translated "churchs"=Rev.)
With all due respect, if your relationship with Christ is not to be expired by fear, and instead, made of the strongest element that we have not yet encountered (LOVE ALL HIS CHILDREN MORE THAN YOURSELF), they will NOT be ashamed they will not be afraid they will not worry about what men and women will think of them because they're strong hold is with God because they are leaning fully on God they will not be ashamed they went there with good intention and it will continue to do that until they die and that's true Faith with all due respect I do listen to you but please consider the possibility. They will have angels protecting them. Tey will die in the fire before letting fear bring on the sin, shame. I'd wash their feet for trying and I believe protection savior would too. GOD IS LOVE.❤
ever thought of being different be depentant on God on the word of God as Tim Conway said "Get off the middle" and he's right we are so conserned about not offending people around us that we are slowly being like them demesticated civialized "respected', we are God's children not the world's children not caught in the media vortex the manipulation abounds all around us and we should be ashamed that we would trust in Any thing other than Jesus Christ.
This is the first time that I find fault in pastor Washer, that He is not bothered by this verse that makes Jesus sinner . That did not see the difference between in Him with on Him. Isa. 53:12 ;1 Peter2: 24 ; Matt.8:17. Jesus bore on Him not in Him our sins, He never defiled His Spirit in Him with sins!
@jackofnowhere I'm not trying to badmouth Mr. washer but the problem is that he focuses too much on one aspect of the bible and neglects the other key parts of it
I wonder if Mr washer speaks in tongues because the congregation I fellowship with ask me if I've received the holy Ghost that I should be speaking in tounges
What Paul washer has to do with speaking in tongue’s?? That’s not the topic here but those who believe that a saved person needs to speak in tongues are a bunch of heretics mouthpieces for satan!!
Speaking in tongues is a spiritual gift, and spiritual gifts are dispersed throughout people differently; but the fact that they think you SHOULD be speaking in tongues tells me that they haven't read 1 Corinthians 12 and probably do not too well know their Bible; not to condemn them by saying that, but I think you need to find a more biblically understanding group to fellowship with
I thought i knew the truth and was saved since age 10, but when i heard Paul Washer preach, it was so hard, but I now am truly saved. I truly now know that it's so much more than a sinners prayer. It's Ezekiel 36.. it's the TRANSFORMING POWER OF GOD that saved me. Not my efforts. And in response to Him changing me, and saving me I live to glorify Him in everything I do.
Amen
Praise the Lord
Wonderful sermon! God used to to encourage me because I was feeling down/depressed the other day- needed to hear this---God Bless
"God saved you FROM Himself, God saved you FOR Himself, God saved you BY Himself".
Love that !!
Many followed him just to see his
Miracles and be healed
Then many turned away
Only his disciples stayed
Where would we go thou has the
Words of eternal life!
❤
It's a very powerful message. Paul Washer is one of the best preachers of our times and he is brave enough to tell you the truth. You should listen all of his teachings. Holy Spirit is working in him, there is no doubt about it. If only there were more men like him in our churches.
Pastor Washer , you are a great preacher, needed more than ever in these times of disbelief and sin, thank you for your teachings that speak many truths.📖✝️🙏
Love how the lord will hide his message from those with deaf ears and a hard heart ❤️ who can't get this message from a worker of the lord
Please pray i soften and get ears to hear☹️
He explains the gospel better then any preacher I’ve ever heard in my life
WOW! The Gospel the way it must be preached. I needed to hear this.
What a wonderful, amazing and true message. Thank you Paul for all you are doing. I was granted to know what it means and how it feels to be rejected by God and it was the most horrible, paralysing and unimaginable experience I ever had. The feeling of rejection was so hard to stand that I could not even breathe. There is nothing most horrible in life than to be rejected and cursed by God Himself. Believe and trust Paul Washer, he is teaching the true Gospel.
He was such an edification and a joy to hear last month at the National G3 conference.
2 Cor 5:21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
Only few words come to my mind... HalleluJah! And Thank You Jesus!
When i hear him preach the Holy Spirit convicts me. Amen . Thank you God for your grace.
We are blessed only because He died cursed. Wow. Truly powerful.
we are so comfortable in our iniquity and sin that we've forgotten what it means to be laboring in the spirit of GOD.
❤❤..Galatians. 2:20...Thank You Lord..You are my Life..❤❤
Praise God, a true presentation of the Gospel of Christ! No other man could have drank from that cup but Christ Jesus our Lord!
Absolutely awesome message !
He is truely a vessel of God..takes no short cuts, truth be told,isn't always easy to hear,but it's what we need to hear and know.hard core truth..if all preachers can do this,sooo much more people will be saved..he leaves no stone unturned when it comes to speaking the harsh reality of the Bible..
How we/I need the Gospel message day by day
We deserved that cup of wrath of GOD but Jesus drank it.
Great message. The man preaches repentance, judgment, and holiness...all marks of a man filled with the Holy Ghost.
When on earth, a person in front of the judge is sentenced “guilty” and faces death, if someone comes and pleads the judge to let him be the substitutionary person to die in the place of the guilty and fulfill the sentence for him, and is allowed to do so, he dies but is not the real criminal, he is not called criminal , he is still an innocent person who is paying the sentence for the real one. He doesn’t become a criminal, he becomes an innocent , loving savior. And the real criminal will walk out of the court, not righteous , still a criminal, but a forgiven criminal saved by the grace of an innocent man.!📖✝️❤️🙏
I'm trying to be Christian (maybe I am) but I struggle to grasp the idea of our sins being imputed to Christ or his righteousness being imputed to us. I am somewhat able to comprehend one explanation, but I'm not sure it's accurate:
That our faith in Christ gives us the space/time/motivation/means to actually become righteous in the hereafter.
Thoughts?
Hey, it's all about the significance of the blood. God created us that way. Blood represents life in the spiritual realm. This is why in the old testament, when people sinned, they spiritually died. In order for them to be alive again ( spiritually) they need to kill a living thing in order to take its life. However since we humans are much more important and valuable than animals, the life of an animal would bring us back to life spiritually, but only for a small period of time. We can imagine than a person, when giving a sacrifice, clings to the life of that sacrifice. So for animal sacrifices, we'd be clinging to that animal's life, which isn't enough to fully redeem a human being's dead life. Then comes Jesus. Since He was perfect, He was the perfect sacrifice. By dying on the cross as a sacrifice, He offers us His ETERNAL life. This is why we can now have an eternal life and not a short temporary earthly life like the animal's. So to answer your question, all the "benefits" of living a perfect sinless life like Jesus, are related to the value of His blood, that was shed for us to cling unto its life. So by accepting His sacrifice and by clinging more and more to Him, we get to benefit from all that His pure blood gets to offer us. God now sees us righteous because when He looks at us, He now sees in us the life of Jesus to which we had access through the blood shed by his sacrifice.
I hope this was helpful, I tried my best :)
@chloesarkis8837 thank you,, praise God
David stopped following and obeying God for Bathsheba.....
He SUFFERED consequences
WONT WE?
God DOESNT change.
Consequences for Sin WONT either.
On Earth or getting into Heaven.
I need some help with this...If Jesus asked for all the debts, then why did he ask "Why have you forsaken me?"...and if our sins were imputed onto Christ, who can He remain the spotless lamb of God...would Jesus then be tainted with our sin?? I ask in sincerity, not blasphemy.
He didn’t personally sin. He was treated the way every sinner who He died for deserved.
Essentially the LORD Jesus Christ took the infinite suffering of hell. Repeatedly. For EVERY sinner who He purchased.
He didn’t sin himself. Imputation is to treat as if it belonged to you.
Jesus was imputed sin. The believer is imputed righteousness. What’s more. His perfect life sacrificed this way is the true sacrifice that never needs to be repeated
It cleansed the believer from all their sin. Actual cleansing and actual dealing with the guilt. God has dealt with the punishment.
God has created real righteousness. The matter was settled with Almighty Finality by the savior.
He commands you and I to repent and believe.
Even you.
Even I
Spellbiff, we were blessed to have him at our church today, here in Austin, TX. I pray that he would come to your church too.
@whosedoingwhat i feel sorrow 4 you, u obviously do not truly know JESUS personally, because if u did, u wouldnt be ranting and arguing with these people, and pauls message wouldnt offend you. all good things come from above which makes your arguing/strife is not from above. knowing JESUS is pure joy! ill pray 4 u, dont bother trying to coax me into a ridiculous debate, i wont waste my time, my time is for the LORD praise Him!
Those who deny Christ don't like this message
@fedja17 Iv died many times. I just can't remember. So have you. Look in the mirror and ask yourself. Who am I?Everything is bullshit. Ask yourself are you really truelly Free. I know your not. Religion,Corperation,Government, and Money. These are the problem we have on earth. Take all this away. You will see the true you inside and out. There is no equality in this world. We need equality for all humanity. No border, let the animals free. Stop killing and destroying. There will be nothing.
@evandrigor Sorry to hear about your painful experience. But have you ever wondered why it takes the death of a loved one for one to even PONDER the purpose and existence of God? Btw, Jesus was not a 'white man', please don't let the opinions of MAN represent God. Why don't you try talking to God yourself? Seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened :)
@fedja17 In my view your Greed will get the best of you. Thats the reality of it. Simple to see. Why thank you. For a Christian why do you act like the devil. Don't you repect other. Or do you do that in a church.
i thank god for giving a wounderful message through his servant,now i understood about the cup
@171Family Check out this website carm( . )org/questions/about-jesus/why-did-jesus-cry-out-my-god-my-god-why-have-you-forsaken-me ..your 2nd question...The punishment for our sins were imputed to Jesus although He never sinned himself while on earth which satisfied & pleased God but it did not taint Him. He just took our place and had to die because the wages of sin is death. Also going by scripture, He later rose from the grave bc He never sinned Himself (death could not hold Him!)
@SmileLoveForgive Well what do we have here?-- yet another a laboratory specimen of deluded, brainwashed Christian cultist dementia. You need serious deprogramming for you really seem lost in your cartoon fantasy land. There is no Satan, cosmic foes, gods or any other such cartoon characters depicted in your book of mythology. It's all fabricated bullshit that has seized control of your mind. Don't be a willing slave or a victim of fraud; reality is always there waiting for you to rediscover.
@Gook987 sounds like you've witnessed hatred from Christians. who hasn't. But I wouldn't make the extremely sad mistake of putting every passionate Christian in that box. If you are truly a passionate Christian, Love will not allow you hate anyone. And, if u really believe in the Bible, there is simply no such thing as taking it too seriously... =)
@adtc
No, I don't because their is no point in doing so. It is impossible for a Christian to convince a non-believer to accept Christ. It takes a movement of God to do that. 90% of the so called Atheists I deal with are dogmatic, arrogant, rude and want nothing but to stomp out Christianity in place of their beliefs.
@Gook987 Homosexuals is part of the reason why Jesus Christ died. Because of the sin of homosexuality. God DOES hate homosexuality. And He hates it enough that He destroyed 2 entire cities because of it. If you do not repent, you will soon find out how much He hates homosexuality and sin....
Paul Washer tries so hard
the bible says don't be wise in your own eyes, that are stripped naked by sin.
Just as Adam and Eve were stripped naked because they ate the apple of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil but didn't take heed to GOD's instruction.
The judgement for rejecting the only BEGOTTEN not made Son of God! Their hope of salvation! We are to be in the ministry of reconciliation IICor.5:18-20 Read Eph.all, Eph3:6;Eph.3:9; Eph.3:11
satan's gosple is being preached today because of those stupid prospardy preachers(pimps).
When it comes to worshipping GOD it is so hard why because we are really under attack the GOD breathed gosple is now a scandel.
@camaro02girl I'ts a beautiful message of hope actually.. if you are saved by Christ you will rejoice in this message, if not... well then you will be condemned by this messege, and therefore hate it.
since when is it any person's business to judge a person just because they're not proper or morally correct with this world SO WHAT! isn't it Jesus who we struggle to know and honor and reverence.
@jeremyroxursox
Well, you certain implied you were an Atheist with your little rant. In the video it looks like Paul Washer is preaching in a church. Are you drunk or something?
@GetMurked88 Why are you here? It doesn't look to me like your living to the fullest...it looks to me like God is calling you and you don't wanna answer! Wake up!!
Jesus didn't die on the cross for everyone who believes in him.
He taught that obedience is required to enter his kingdom:
Matthew 12:46-50 says:
"While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.”
He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers.
For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
Jesus also warned:
Matthew 5:30
"And if your right hand causes you to stumble, (sin) cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell."
Remember also that the five foolish virgins believed in Jesus, but he rejected them.
Oh, so you have never sinned? Wish I could obey like that!
Jesus also said that on that day many will say Lord Lord didn't i cast out demons in your name, heal the sick in your name etc.. and He said to them depart from me you workers of iniquity, The only ones getting in at the ones who keep their ear to His heart, have a close relationship and do the will of His Father. To know the will of God requires intimacy, dying to self, loving Him more than anything. And many want the spotlight in service but few want the humble contrition of crucifixion of the flesh daily to seek the will of God the Father.
I cannot understand how people think that because they pray the sinners prayer that they don't have to follow anything but the 10 commandments. And they don't want to truly follow them.
Anything the Lord said You will NOT means we shouldn't even look at it or listen to it. But we watch the old westerns on tv, full of murder and hatred , robbery and rape, and defrauding others and think because we aren't doing it that we are innocent. We are not even supposed to look on those things. We should WANT to give our lives consecrated to Him for His use not out of duty but out of heartfelt devotion and gratefulness for His love.
The Holy Spirit is the one that works in us to help cleanse us of our unrighteousness. We can follow Law as much as we want but without change of heart Law is works and we do not get saved by works "lest anyone should boast". We are saved by Grace through faith in Our Lord Jesus Christ. Plus righteousness was imputed to us like Paul Washer says based upon the work of Our Lord Jesus.
Define "believes in Him"
I need help repenting I'm weak. I ask God to help but my sins and iniquities stand imbetween my prayers and God. Someone please help me to understand how to fix this. Please before its too late
How are you?
I read your comment my friend and it hurt my heart. I too struggle with fear and anguish over being able to truly repent. Please try to realize that you have to cry out to God, I mean quite literally, cry out to Him, beseech Him, ask Him for exactly what you need. Don't hold back, tell Him in prayer you are afraid if you are, tell Him you don't know what to do, tell Him you want to be saved, tell Him you want to repent and you need Him to give you what it is that you need in order to for you to be able to do this. To take away the complacency, the apathy, the pride, the hard heartedness. Remember, it is He that will accomplish these things in you, but you must seek Him. Seek Him fervently, meaning pray honestly, pray from your heart. Neither you or I will ever be able to repent of our sins without His redeeming work in us, therefore we must ask Him. I know you said that you have done that and I truly understand there must be times when you feel there is no hope. Please keep trying, be as the woman Jesus speaks about who persistently petitioned the judge for justice until she finally got it. I say this as much to you as I do myself because I struggle with this too. My heart goes out to you friend, please put your faith and trust in Jesus, you cannot fix this. Neither can I, only He can.
@Brightstarblog7 Amen! Jesus said that if you love Him you will keep His commandments (John 14:15). That does not leave room for sin. The true believer loves Jesus and keeps His word (John 14:23).
27:51 I think it's interesting that even when Jesus Christ became a curse for us that he could still see GOD that his eyes were still able to peer into heaven before he died because he was sinless.
Before Adam sinned and was cast out of the garden of eden he was also sinless doesn't it seem funny that our culture takes the sinless perfection Adam instead of GOD's son Jesus Christ.
@alecphen Amen...it's called OBEDIENCE.
May we all be bold to proclaim the Gospel this way.
You recognize you're weak and need help. Jesus Christ is your savior.
Your definition of repenting needs clarification.
You agree with God in your heart and mind about your condidtion.
Good.
Now this is the work of the Father, to believe on Him whom the Father has sent.
Trust in Christ, never stop, no matter what happens, no matter what you go through.
Pray for help, read your Bible, never stop, seeking Him. If you seek Him with your whole heart then He will be found.
@claptonstratgreen1 Have you accepeted Jesus as your saviour? If not, please read the Bible. KJV preferible. But read all the new testament 1st. Read everything Jesus did and his still doing. 1st you have to understand the puspose of Jesuschrist in our life. Why we need to repent and why he is the only way. I know it has been 3 months since yor comment. I am here to help . God Bless You!!!
KJV is not preferable, especially not for a new believer and scholars don't even use it for studying
NASB1995 and ESV are the most accurate
George Carlin - Religion Is Bullshit (watch it)
I feel bad for all of the patheticly preyed upon losers that fall for this bullshit. Get your heads out of your asses and live life, religion is nonsense and isn`t relevant in the 21st century. Sure, it helped people in the past, and it held civilizations together, but holy SHIT people take this stuff too seriously. Im sure it makes some people feel all warm and fuzzy inside, but grow the fuck up and make your own decisions in life. Jesus.
Religion is BS
- George Carlin
"George Carlin is dead"
-God
@shandy068 You take the bible seriously? Could you demonstrate that? It's interesting to see that you make believing the bible as conditional to being a Christian. So.... John 14:12 Seriously.
if u don't believe the Bible is the inerrant Word of God that was written by men who were inspired by the Holy Spirit, you're not a Christian
each of our move has it's cost.. if you do sin... you will go to hell... read the passage from the bible and you'll understand what the sermon says...
2:55 - "You must be filed with the Holy Spirit and then witnessing won't be a work, it will be an outflow of that great power moving within you.." Amen!
Wake up and study Gods word, 5:30
Thank God and praised be His name!
We just don't get it. He drank the cup! Thank you so much for another convicting and powerful message from my favorite preacher. We need more like him to preach the real Gospel of Jesus Christ.
This video changed my life.
Praise God 🙏
@Sofa3301 Well you're right on one thing, Christianity is completely incapable of fitting in with this world's views. It is rejected, hated, it doesn't "tolerate" or come in a "light version". I do not agree with, "I am holier than you" bashing- but if what you speak of is a person whom proclaims the true gospel- well you're anger makes sense and I am glad that it provoked something in you.
Don't anyone follow Christ who has not been called out of this world by Him. If you follow Christ without being called you're waisting your time and life. Guys with ties try to build kingdoms (churches) with the uncalled and they then "teach" them how to be Christians.....it's all deception. Most Christians have not been called and are in for a big surprise after death. Sunday school, christian schools and colleges are false convert factories.
Wow! Thanks be to my Lord and savior that He stepped in, became sin to take judgement in my place, and saved me from the wrath of God! Its so easy to neglect the very essential details of what Christ had to endure for the souls of humanity. My God!!! How sinful i am!!! Thank you for legally seeing me as righteous! Please keep the at the fore of my mind always...not 1 is a righteous being...NOT 1!
They look at the way Adam was so perfectly made that they focus on that instead of the destructive affects of sin and that Adam also fell from grace after he sinned, his life was no longer perfect but was cursed untill he eventually drifted away from GOD instead of returning to the father he chose to play in his iniquity with Eve and feeling the passions and lusts of the flesh untill he became spiritually dead.
@TrustkillProductionz You coudn't be more confused and ill taught and WRONG. By whose authority and word do you speak this? NOT the bible! To be saved by Grace through Faith is to trust in the FINISHED work on the cross, too rest in Christ from your works. If it be works then it is no more Grace(unmerited favor with God).
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
James 1:27
a religious person is someone who is not influenced by the world but goes around helping those in need :)
This is so true it is all about Christ. Talking people into repeating a prayer is like Jim Jones talking people into mass suicide. Saying the prayer is like drink the koolaid. It is about true faith in Christ thats it. And that faith will bring about great works.
People who haven't repented of their sins and given their life to Jesus Christ to be covered by his blood in this New Marriage Covenant are still under God's Wrath!!
Because God can't see you through Jesus Christ's blood like when Father looks at those in Christ.
God said without blood their is no forgiveness, that's why Jesus gave us his pure blood, so now God's wrath is replaced by blessings and the curses are taken away.
No more deliberate sins.
@Gook987 I was wondering what made you go from being a Christian or Catholic to Not believing in God at or Atheist? Just wondering...was it something you read,heard? Or is it a result of your experiences? Thanks
pugandspencer1 pt2 We follow Pauls Gospel as you can read in His letters start with Eph.3 we are "The Body of Christ, He(Christ) is the Head and God is making one new man Jew & Gentile through this period of Grace. A new man in one no partition and Jesus the Head . We are FILLED with the Holy Spirit at the time of our Trust/Belief in Jesus's deity as the Son of God and finished work on cross and Resurrection sitting on Right hand of God(power & authority) Who's arguing w/anyone? ICor.13: 1-13
2) Which works will you stand on since God says all our works are filthy rags. It is the shed blood and resurrection sitting at the right hand of God...The Godman, Very God and Very man who sits there waiting until Grace has ended(last person enters the body of Christ Eph.3 hidden in God before the foundations of the earth The Mystery) and judgement on the Jews and world begins.
Paul washer is right it is a superficial age we are living in but we are still to pursue GOD and stop admiring men and following them in that darn vanity fair and listen to the words of the LORD our GOD.
On 51:39, "Abraham called that place YHVH (Jehovah) Jireh" (Genesis 22:14).
Yet, hundreds of years later, Jehovah told Moses, "I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by my name YHVH (Jehovah) I did not make myself known to them" (Exodus 6:3).
i always say to myself, Christ must be glorified not a may not should but must. What he did not even Angels can explain. oo GLORY TO GOD, JESUS CHRIST BE GLORIFIED, BE GLORIFIED. I AM NOT AFRAID TO TESTIFY OF YOUR GLORY. AMEN. LORD TAKE IT ALL, TAKE IT ALL
The bible is enough nothing else even if you die for it at least some will listen and take heed to the spirit of GOD and will follow GOD in repentance and faith.
The ones who don't listen never wanted to know GOD because they loved themselves more than GOD.
when abrahams son put up no struggle it was the hands of GOD on both abraham and issac that whole time, issac saw the faith his father had and trusted his father the whole way even to death the same goes with us and our GOD's faith in us.
The sign of Yeshua at the cross. They
put a sign on the cross above Him. It gave
His name and the crime He had committed,
“Yeshua of Nazareth, and King of the Jews”
in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. In the Hebrew,
there are four words to say this. The first letter
of those four words is Yod, Hey, Vav, Hey. That
spells the name of God announced to Moses
at the burning bush. God said that was His memorial name that was not be taken in vain.
God also told Moses that he was to declare “I AM”
had sent him to the children of Israel.
When Yeshua spoke of His future death, He
said that when He was lifted up (the crucifixion) that they would see I AM. Yeshua was saying that He was the God who spoke to and sent
Moses to Egypt.
When opportunity to speak with my Jewish brethren,
I would ask them if they believe that God sent
Moses-do they believe that God gave him signs
to confirm him being sent. When they answer
yes, I then ask why don’t they believe in Yeshua
then; He did the same signs.

@XXXFirebird76XXX
tell me you're not pushing your beliefs on others, or at least wanting to do so.
this preaching speaks about the cost of not following GOD from the video name itself... THIS IS TRUE! EVERYONE BE PREPARED FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD IS NEAR!
when i read the gosple i have very little knowledge of the world around me but the GOD of heaven comes down on me and directs my eyes to his word.
Am glad to have accepted Jesus Christ and to have the Grace to turn to Him In Prayer
Sanctification is a life long process and God is so patient and loving to me.
God bless you Paul.
@camaro02girl Im not talking to one person. Christainaty as a whole. Everyone is different.
@coppurt
Epicurus missed the cross. Jesus has saved mankind from their sins.
@Brightstarblog7 Jesus is not a god or lord. wake up your brainwash.
fail...he preaches that the gospel is enough, but he forgets that good works must also be done (James 2:21 "faith without works is dead")...all I've heard so far are his preaching but where are his works...there is more to Christianity than just being evangelistic...imagine if Jesus' parable about the good samaritan instead being not a helper but some other choice of decision...what would happen to the dying man...now dont get me wrong,
ok works salvationist, stop trying to add good works to faith
faith alone saves, your works are dirty rags to the holy God
pugandspencer1 you are doing the one thing you are NOT to do, judge a believer's faih. God will sperate the wheat from the tares! I have no idea what you are talking about. My point is we are not the Jews, the sign people, the covenant people. They are NOT the church, but they are the assemblies(poorly translated "churchs"=Rev.)
everyone who believes in Christ is the church
have you ever read the Bible? the gentiles have been grafted in, read Romans 11
@candiceevans1 warning you MAY be having a psychotic episode and/or a shroom trip.
Thanks chunkutuff for sending this to me!!
God bless.
With all due respect, if your relationship with Christ is not to be expired by fear, and instead, made of the strongest element that we have not yet encountered (LOVE ALL HIS CHILDREN MORE THAN YOURSELF), they will NOT be ashamed they will not be afraid they will not worry about what men and women will think of them because they're strong hold is with God because they are leaning fully on God they will not be ashamed they went there with good intention and it will continue to do that until they die and that's true Faith with all due respect I do listen to you but please consider the possibility.
They will have angels protecting them. Tey will die in the fire before letting fear bring on the sin, shame.
I'd wash their feet for trying and I believe protection savior would too.
GOD IS LOVE.❤
God is love but He’s also righteous. God isn’t an universalists.
ever thought of being different be depentant on God on the word of God as Tim Conway said "Get off the middle" and he's right we are so conserned about not offending people around us that we are slowly being like them demesticated civialized "respected', we are God's children not the world's children not caught in the media vortex the manipulation abounds all around us and we should be ashamed that we would trust in Any thing other than Jesus Christ.
This is the first time that I find fault in pastor Washer, that He is not bothered by this verse that makes Jesus sinner . That did not see the difference between in Him with on Him. Isa. 53:12 ;1 Peter2: 24 ; Matt.8:17. Jesus bore on Him not in Him our sins, He never defiled His Spirit in Him with sins!
When did he say that? He says Jesus never became defiled
They spat in his face and said prove it and I already had
Then come. What do you have that is worth more than Christ?
@bgjrpr2525 When you die. You won't see god and heaven. You will see you. Its so simple.
got any proof for that?
@jackofnowhere I'm not trying to badmouth Mr. washer but the problem is that he focuses too much on one aspect of the bible and neglects the other key parts of it
@jeremyroxursox
Geez, I wish you Atheists would stop pushing your dogmatic beliefs on me.
don't listen to atheists, they are fools, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom
Wow.. meth heads really have a difficulty expressing themselves in a meaningful way..
it's called the Holy Spirit
when Christ makes you alive, you will act like a live person, not a dead person
very profound sermon
study your Bible better
I wonder if Mr washer speaks in tongues because the congregation I fellowship with ask me if I've received the holy Ghost that I should be speaking in tounges
Not everyone has the gift of tongues.....God gives us each varying gifts.
What Paul washer has to do with speaking in tongue’s?? That’s not the topic here but those who believe that a saved person needs to speak in tongues are a bunch of heretics mouthpieces for satan!!
Speaking in tongues is a spiritual gift, and spiritual gifts are dispersed throughout people differently; but the fact that they think you SHOULD be speaking in tongues tells me that they haven't read 1 Corinthians 12 and probably do not too well
know their Bible; not to condemn them by saying that, but I think you need to find a more biblically understanding group to fellowship with
41:27 the girl was correct all along
