I grew up in church with the knowledge of who Christ was. Prayed that prayer and believed I was saved. Not until later in life when I was so lost and stuck addicted to drugs did I encounter Him. He found me. All I cried out was God help me. I cannot describe it in words but my eyes were opened. I knew that He was my salvation. He gave me the strength to get sober and stay sober. I don't know where I would be without Him. Thank you Lord.
When king David was anointed he went back to attending sheep. It was years down the road before he became the leader of Israel. All don't know how or just aren't ready to present their body a living sacrifice. No 2 people have the exact same rebirth on how God worked with them
@Iknowaboutroaches3350 and many didn’t, the point being Christ provided their needs and there was no gratitude- the came to take FROM the hand of Jesus not TAKE HIS HAND. They came for what they could get not fit who he was (& still is).
Powerful pure gospel preaching! To quote Leonard Ravenhill “A man who is intimate with God is not intimidated by man.” May we be intimate with Him so that we will declare the truth at whatever cost - family, friends, job, even our lives ...
Paul Washers name has popped up here and there over the years. Never took the time to listen. I’m amazed at his ability to communicate the truth in such a direct way. Nice to hear the truth of the gospel for a change. Amen 🙏🏻 Amen
@@meatseth7823he reminds me of his namesake, the apostle Paul, his parents knew what they were doing when they named him that Paul says "imitate me as I imitate Christ' and Paul washer does a great job of that
I love Paul Washer. Listened to him in Rehab when I was first getting clean, listen to him now 3 years later while still clean from Heroine. He preaches God's Word, which never changes, even as we do.
The secret of Paul Washer's preaching is that he has already died to the systems of the world. He is therefore able to speak truth with no care of what the world thinks.
You can clearly see the difference between Paul Washer and the ministers we have today. Compare him with a Copeland, Johnson (Bill), Brown and all the other "Christians"
Roy, you said it. Isn't that what Jesus Christ preached, that we must die and it's no longer we who live but Christ. This has been and I still long to die like Paul Washer so that I'm no longer conformed to the standards of the world instead it is no longer I who live but Christ.
I asked Jesus into my heart at the age of 12. And again at 14, and probably 2-3 times after that. I kept doing it because I never felt changed. I lived the Christian life -- believed in Jesus, went to church, prayed every day -- except I wasn't truly saved. Five and a half years ago, after my divorce and while I was living with my fiance, God came for me. He opened my eyes to the time we are living in and gave it to me straight: I was lukewarm. Either I would get red hot, or He would spit me out. There was no church involved. It was just God saying, "I stand at the door and knock." I know Pastor Washer says that applies to churches, but that day God applied it to ME. I opened the door, and He filled me with His Spirit. I give my testimony where I can now, because I believe that there are a lot of deceived people out there who don't even KNOW what they don't know. There is a major difference between decision and regeneration, and I'm living proof.
I have just started watching this, but wish to agree with your comment. Revelation 3.20 is Jesus speaking to the individual "if any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to him". So it is a promise to each man or woman.
Actually you and pastor Paul are saying same thing. If you were born again and fell into some type of sin, that verse refers to a wayward Christian. You responding to that knock would show that you are alive(regeneration) in the first place as the Bible says the unbeliever is dead in sin and I'm pretty sure no matter how loud you knock, a dead body can't get out of their coffin. Make sense?
For all the people living in divorce and remarriages and other sexual sins… Please please please turn away from them and get out of them. And turn to Jesus with all your heart. Put faith in him and realize he paid the fine. Believe and keep believing. He is the son of God, He came to die for our sins. He paid the price with his shed blood. “For if we go on willfully and deliberately sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice [to atone] for our sins [that is, no further offering to anticipate], but a kind of awful and terrifying expectation of [divine] judgment and THE FURY OF A FIRE and BURNING WRATH WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES [those who put themselves in opposition to God]. Anyone who has ignored and set aside the Law of Moses is put to death without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much greater punishment do you think he will deserve who has rejected and trampled under foot the Son of God, and has considered unclean and common the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and has insulted the Spirit of grace [who imparts the unmerited favor and blessing of God]? For we know Him who said, “V ENGEANCE IS M INE [retribution and the deliverance of justice rest with Me], I WILL REPAY [the wrongdoer].” And again, “T HE LORD WILL JUDGE H IS PEOPLE.” It is a fearful and terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God [incurring His judgment and wrath].” Hebrews 10:26-31 AMP “Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people-none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. You say, “I am allowed to do anything”-but not everything is good for you. And even though “I am allowed to do anything,” I must not become a slave to anything. You say, “Food was made for the stomach, and the stomach for food.” (This is true, though someday God will do away with both of them.) But you can’t say that our bodies were made for sexual immorality. They were made for the Lord, and the Lord cares about our bodies. And God will raise us from the dead by his power, just as he raised our Lord from the dead. Don’t you realize that your bodies are actually parts of Christ? Should a man take his body, which is part of Christ, and join it to a prostitute? Never! And don’t you realize that if a man joins himself to a prostitute, he becomes one body with her? For the Scriptures say, “The two are united into one.” But the person who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him. Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-20 NLT Divorce and remarriage scriptures Proverbs 6:26 NLT, For a prostitute will bring you to poverty, but sleeping with another man’s wife will cost you your life. “And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him. And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away. And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.” Mark 10:2-12 KJV “And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 7:10-11, 39 KJV “Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.” Luke 16:18 KJV “For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.” Romans 7:2-3 KJV
I thank the Lord for all the great work He has done and is still doing in the lives of Paul Washer and Ray Comfort. Two of my favorite pastors, alongside Jeff Durbin, John MAc Arthur, Steven Lawson and Alistair Begg.
10yrs down the road and the LORD just opened my eyes to this truth 😭. I have no words but I thank God that led me here. Mr Paul Washer I pray God guards your life and that of your family🤲. Thank you for sticking to the truth.
Yep, i think he's right we need more preaches to blast the sleeping backslidden church here in America, where we are only somewhat Christians on Sunday.
WHERE are the churches whereby this powerful teaching and preaching is found??? I have YET to find one ,ANYWHERE ... in ANY state in which I have lived! Oh, how I appreciate brother Paul! GLORY!!!
Try Times Square Church NY NY if possible. Or Pastor John Piper of Desiring God based in Minneapolis Minnesota. The Word of God is preached in its proper context by these people as well.
I clapped after finishing to watch a sermon on RUclips. Praise God for that truth. May God help us to be faithful. 1 Corinthians 4:2 - The Lord has called us to be faithful in His work, not our work.
@@sheridanfalkenberry5611 His most famous line - lol! Everytime I watch a Washer sermon I feel like I've been whacked around the head with a bag of wet sand.
I did not grow up in a church. God drew me to myself and despite the church I started going to, God worked on me (outside of the church). The church did exactly what is preached here, but it was God bringing me to the end of myself. Since, I have such a heart for people who grew up in the church and think they are saved but don't show signs of fruit. I have a heart for them because they have never experienced that moment where God did a work and you knew he did. I Thank God because He is who is He. It is so hard to convince someone that maybe was baptized at 10 (my brother) and didn't really know what they were doing and never read the Bible and live opposite of it to convince them that they have not been regenerated. It's incredibly hard for me but not for God. I must keep praying.
The best sermon I have ever heard. I'm 50. HE IS NOT LIKE YOU OLD MAN. Luvit. Absolute Gospel Gold. GOD BLESS Paul Washer. PRAISE YOUR HOLY NAME LORD MASTER JESUS CHRIST 🙌🏼 🙏🏻
He talks about all the stuff I've ever questioned about churches and their "procedures" and never gotten an answer. I need to rethink a lot of stuff. Thank you for telling it like it is.
I have been a combat soldier having fought in the 1968 Tet Offensive. I was wounded in action and almost bled to death. The Lord saved me. The point I want to make is that I have seen and experienced my own depravity, The Spirit of the Lord gave me the faith to believe that Jesus Christ is the only righteous One. He is the "I Am."
It is so good to hear the ministry of the word of God, His truth! We need more Paul Washers in the church ministering the word of God, nothing else, but God's Way.
Amen brother Nathan! We are chosen by Him not us choosing Him. That still attempts to have autonomy. Submit and worship is the call. I pray God grants repentance for anyone that comes to Him with their whole heart! And if He does then I will worship Him for them as well.
Siri Bright Absolutely correct sister. You are 100% correct. There is a verse in scripture that says choose this day who you will serve. Being saved is more than just merely choosing Christ. Sure, we have to choose, but it's useless if it isn't followed by repentance. :) it's totally and entirely about submitting to Christ. We don't find him. He finds us and draws us. We have a choice to either choose him which means we turn from our sins and repent or we choose to reject him. Trusting in the sinners prayer is a way to reject Christ and serve bail. God only chooses the ones under his terms of peace, and we must repent and believe. This is what Paul Washer is talking about.
Me on October 3rd, 2021, after seeing images of the crown of thorns on His head in my mind, I fell on the side of my bed and wept, "If He wants to save me, LET HIM SAVE ME!!" Crying, knowing it was eternally settled. Then after my crying was done, looking around my room at all my possessions, realizing I must forsake them now. Sinner's prayer doesn't work. Talking to God does.
Wow, wow wow. Wise rebuke will make us who strive to walk in righteousness and have a contrite heart to be still wiser. “Do not comfort the soul that God is breaking” YESSS and Amen
I can sure use the prayer. At age of 5 I got saved, said prayer and understood. I lived for Jesus for 16 years. Then I went way far astray. I have asked Jesus into my heart since then. In case it wasn't real. I lived for Him for years again. Then stopped going to Church, stop showing fruit of The Spirit. I am still unsure of Salvation because of it. I am convinced of my sins so that's what makes me believe that I am saved.
Steven: If it was not for the fact that God elects certain people to salvation then absolutely no one would be saved. Salvation in every aspect is fully of God alone. As when God made the covenant with Abraham, if we had anything at all to do with it then we would most certainly lose our salvation within the first hour. Truly He who began the good work in us will complete it.
S. Nathan have you even read the NEW TESTAMENT??? It began with the birth of the Son of God. Jesus is the Son of God, the center of the ages, the Lord of Glory, the Bright and Morning Star, His name is Life, in Whom God has bestowed upon Him the Name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD to the glory of God. You will find these passages in the New Testament. Matthew, Philippians, etc. Happy reading! 😊
@@timothyhodges705 even the demons in hell will bow before the King of Kings, how could they not? There is no universal salvation: for many are called but few are chosen.
Are you preaching calvanism? "Calvanism tries to maintain and protect the integrity of God's sovereignty at the cost of his righteousness."- by a believer in Christ whose name I'll never know.
The Majority of the churches in now-a-day is Business Halls. I do not say this with Joy, but sadness for the Souls of those that are their Customers. I will continue to Pray for this deplorable condition. May God have mercy on our innocent offspring.
So refreshing !!!! SPEAK THE TRUTH . Tired of milk and powder puff . Give me meat !!!!!! You are RIGHT ON. I am an orphan who was loving God so much that the 5 churches tried to beat ME BACK TO DRY BONES! GoD Forgive the damage the Church has done
If there is anyone in Perth, Western Australia, who is watching this, who attends a fellowship where this kind of Biblical truth is still believed and preached, please can you let me know where. Every church I go to is trying to emulate Hillsong and it's kind. Are there any church gatherings faithful to the true Gospel and the right dividing of God's word in Perth? All suggestions welcome. Thanks.
Linda C. I hope you would see this reply. Please contact pastor Robert Clancy on the Narrow Path Ministry website or his you tube page...He has a small but growing fellowship. LFCC at Innaloo (has other branches) is a bigger church. I pray that the Lord would lead you and provide for all your needs. (Please contact me on sv4jc18@gmail.com if you need). God bless.
I wish I could ask Pastor Washer himself. I've had so many "conversions." Everytime I hear the gospel truly preached, I feel like I've never truly believed before. I even spent two years reading the Bible for 2 hours every morning and yet, even now, I feel like I'm hearing the true gospel for the first time. And the more it happens, the more I'm convinced I must not be truly saved, because if I was, I'd have understood long ago and would be a far more mature Christian.
😂don't worry I guess you're growing in faith. Usually as days go by we get more opened to the truth and repentance is not a one day event it's a daily thing until that beautiful day we meet Christ and the saints on the golden shore
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If *anyone* hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me".... Jesus Christ...Revelation chapter 3
FYI, I do agree with our brother Paul that the "sinner's prayer" is very dangerous... I know many pastors and evangelist that will have people repeat a prayer that they say and then welcomes them to the family of God... The repentant prayer must be a true apology from our heart to God's.
Jesus is the only way by which mankind can be save. He has full authority and rule over all of creation. His Kingdom will remain long after time has expired. There is no other option, choice, or power that is Greater than YHWH. Thank you Lord for Fulfilling each requirement and We your people stand in your accomplishments with gratitude and fearful respect.
Oswald J. Smith says the following: " Beware lest you be converted but not regenerated! “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Cor. 5:17). You have gone to the inquiry room, but are you “in Christ”? You have responded to the invitation but are you “in Christ”? What change has taken place? Do you hate what you used to love and love what you used to hate? Do you love the people of God, the house of God, the work of God? Do you have a testimony and do you love to give it? Do you love to pray and study your Bible? Do you love to sing the Gospel hymns? Does your heart burn with love for the Lord Jesus? Is He real to you? Do you have the witness of His Spirit? (Romans 8:14-16). Or, do you still love the old life? Is your heart still in the world? Do you go to the same shows and the same dances, the same card parties and the same dances, the same worldly amusements? Do you still love your sin? In what way are you different? What evidence is there that you have passed from death unto life? “Ye shall know them by their fruits” (Matt 7:16). Has there been a change? Taken from article written by Oswald J. Smith: You Have Gone To The Inquiry Room, But Are You A New Creature In Christ -A New Creation?
One thing I find out from many Christians is that when God wants to break someone, they argue, they fight, they resist. They blame the devil and people come rushing in to comfort that soul until the hand is removed. They don't want God to disrupt their lives, just to bless them.
I know that there are different "theological schools" of thought and I don't really think that this will end it, but I wish to try so that we all can be with one accord and have better unity and understanding. I know that I still have a lot to learn, but am willing to dialogue with anyone else that is willing. God bless you all.
Steven Rivera In the world will never unity regarding the teaching of the word of God .Because God not plans to save every human being in the whole world. He save only those who He plan to save.
Evidence that you are saved Romans 10 (KJV) 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Matthew 13 (KJV) 23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Even though Brother Washer may not have an impressive appearance or approach ... he raises very good points and is a great encouragement ... Much like the Apostle Paul or Moses ... with fear ...or stuttering ... but the Lord is always magnified greater than those with eloquent speech
Thank you brother Paul for this message. Towards the middle of this video, I felt God speaking. I feel I heard God, and felt HE used, when YOU spoke God's message to us, His people. God bless you. I think the beginning of the video, while it appears you were reading from Joel Olsteen's book, it was for information on how he relays the word of God or God's will as he interprets it, I feel to see it might cause confusion. May God continue to bless you in the name of Jesus. Abrazo!
My Belorussian Bible college roommate showed me Shocking Youth Message sometime in 2008. After Bible college, I got mad at God and left church. CS Lewis referred to the mindset he put himself into to write the Screwtape Letters as a place where all is dust and grit and thirst and itch. That has been my experience ever since.
The modern Salvation scheme, used by modern evangelism today, has the Holy Trinity bowing at the almighty feet of mans' free will, admitting that " We have done all we can to save you; won't you allow Us to come in?", and , in fact, reduces the Creator to begging the creation for " allowance " into the creations' heart. The worship of mans' free will will be the cause of myriads of souls being eternally separated from God, and is the epitome of human pride.
As I heard some where else... how much freedom does a dead man have? Dead in our sins. Dry bones. Explain the freedom you have in that. There is a mystery that I can not explain. Somehow we participate. Maybe we participate by working against our so-called free will, I don't know. But I dare not teach anything but the sovereignty of God. He knows how it works.
Dude, what a combo, EZ and Paul on the same convention? I need to learn to share the Gospel like these guys do but if I do it like brother Paul does on his Sermons. Well, that's not how he says you're supposed to do it with non-converts. But I love it. I really need to learn. If I do it like EZ and Ray do on the street, it seems too soft. i've tried both and a combination. I really don't know what I'm doing. I haven't seen a change. Yes I've even read Tactics. Get them to first base. All I've gotten is either rejection, or indifference or silence. It's up to God.
Stayed and helped the man???????? Wow!!!!!! Cancelled his flight!!!!! My husband hung himself in my closet with a electrical cord ….. I had a 3 year old in the house. The mega church I donated my tithe to every week, my printing company donated full color over the top bulletins, missions, . No one came to my house to pray. No one came with a dish of food. No one came to help with my child. 25 years ---- never met the “senior pastor” the church ……. A very dangerous place. One of 5 horrific “church” experiences.
49:05 makes you wonder how they can take the word receive and turn it into a mans decision of some sort. Thats why Gods word has more verses for the context. John 1:12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
To receive something you have to make a decision ~ A Choice to receive or to reject. God gave us a choice and then told us what choice was the best one. Deu_30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Jos_24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Salvation is a gift its not a predestinated right. Salvation is by grace but we only get it by faith. Eph_2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: However each person is given a measure of faith Rom_12:3 according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. So when Jesus says I if I be lifted up will draw all men to me, then how can he do that? He can do that by the fact that everyone has a measure of faith that Christ uses to draw us to Him, when we hear the word of God our faith is increased. We don't get to choose if we have faith or not we all have it what we get to choose is weather or not we will allow our mind to hear the word of God and let that faith grow.. Rom_10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. So then Grace is received through faith and even that faith is not of our own, but it is a gift. But no one can be saved without making a decision to exercise that faith we have by allowing the drawing power of Christ to bring us into a closer view of Jesus on the cross.
@@darwinwhite2091 You say on one hand that you receive Salvation through faith (as making a decision to believe) and on the other hand you say that Jesus gave the faith in the first place. Now, either it's yours or is from Jesus. Hebrews says it clear that it's Jesus who is the Author and the Finisher of our faith so, based on Scripture (Heb 12:2) even the faith we have is from Jesus. Yeah, you choose, but you choose according to YOUR NATURE! and what do you choose? Well, Ephesians 2 says it clearly but you skipped that part And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which *you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air* , the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves *in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind* , and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others. Ephesians 2:1-3 NKJV Yeah you choose, but because you are *DEAD* you can *ONLY CHOOSE* what a dead person can choose: stay dead and play dead (as in go on corrupting yourself in all that flesh corruption brings) *BUT GOD!!* what did God do? Offered you a way? Well yeah, in a sense but *FIRST* He Made You Alive (He brought you from death to life and gave you a New identity by making you alive with Christ). Now, it clearly says (I will not quote it, just read the *WHOLE* Chapter 2 of Ephesians) that from your death He brought you to Life. It doesn't say that He showed you a way so that you may choose to make yourself alive did He? It is God Who in His Love While you we're *dead* gave His only begotten Son as a Propitiation for your sin so that He might gave you His rightousness in order to have a relationship with A Holy God instead of the death penalty that rests upon your head. It Was His initiative not yours! You were just dead and just sat there in corruption, powerless awaiting your total destruction! You cannot make yourself alive nor can choose anything because you have no breath in you. That's the Grace! That's His Love! That's His Salvation!
Is it normal to hate myself and my own sin? Like it’s hard for me to think of myself and my sin. And hard for me to forgive myself of my sin toward others
Paul speaks the truth here from more or less the office, gifting and position of a prophet. What we desperately need are evangelists that understand this truth and live it. Ray comfort is one of the few I've run across. Unfortunately at least 90% of church house preachers I've ever heard use some version of the unbiblical Finney formula. Sometimes it makes me wonder if they themselves have ever even been saved. I'd like to know how to reach these preachers with the truth.😢
I'm still struggling with assurance! And speaking of Jesus at the door. If u ever look at the pic u will notice the only door know is on ur side. He can't open door and walk in uninvited
You make ONE decision to believe in Christ for salvation. Upon believing, we are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. We are baptized into the Body of Christ, through his death, burial, and resurrection. We are justified, glorified, and seated with Christ in the heavenlies. We are heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. By the Spirit we are released from the bondage of fear. We cry "Abba, Father." The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
I was done that exact way at the age of 13 and I was dead my whole life then he came to me and it was something that when I try to explain it to people they look at me like in crazy and that’s ok and I have ran from him since then and he called me to repentance and that gave me even more reassurance That I am not of this world Jesus Christ is Lord and he calls
I grew up in church with the knowledge of who Christ was. Prayed that prayer and believed I was saved. Not until later in life when I was so lost and stuck addicted to drugs did I encounter Him. He found me. All I cried out was God help me. I cannot describe it in words but my eyes were opened. I knew that He was my salvation. He gave me the strength to get sober and stay sober. I don't know where I would be without Him. Thank you Lord.
Praise God.
Amen and amen Jesus chose us we don’t choose him
AMEN BROTHER! IT IS A MARVEL HOW THAT OPENING FEELS! THE TRUE WORKS OF GOD CAN NEVER BE EXPLAINED, ONLY EXPERIENCED!
Wonderful testimony!
When king David was anointed he went back to attending sheep. It was years down the road before he became the leader of Israel. All don't know how or just aren't ready to present their body a living sacrifice. No 2 people have the exact same rebirth on how God worked with them

I asked Jesus into my heart at the age of 12. And again at 14, and probably 2-3 times after that. I kept doing it because I never felt changed. I lived the Christian life -- believed in Jesus, went to church, prayed every day -- except I wasn't truly saved. Five and a half years ago, after my divorce and while I was living with my fiance, God came for me. He opened my eyes to the time we are living in and gave it to me straight: I was lukewarm. Either I would get red hot, or He would spit me out. There was no church involved. It was just God saying, "I stand at the door and knock." I know Pastor Washer says that applies to churches, but that day God applied it to ME. I opened the door, and He filled me with His Spirit. I give my testimony where I can now, because I believe that there are a lot of deceived people out there who don't even KNOW what they don't know. There is a major difference between decision and regeneration, and I'm living proof.
I have just started watching this, but wish to agree with your comment. Revelation 3.20 is Jesus speaking to the individual "if any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to him". So it is a promise to each man or woman.
@@anselman3156 -- Since churches consist of individuals, any message addressed to a church is necessarily addressed to the individual persons in it.
Actually you and pastor Paul are saying same thing. If you were born again and fell into some type of sin, that verse refers to a wayward Christian. You responding to that knock would show that you are alive(regeneration) in the first place as the Bible says the unbeliever is dead in sin and I'm pretty sure no matter how loud you knock, a dead body can't get out of their coffin. Make sense?
It's important to understand that the sinner's prayer is missing from Scripture. This video touches on it. ruclips.net/video/MsgGyAwMdd4/видео.html
For all the people living in divorce and remarriages and other sexual sins… Please please please turn away from them and get out of them. And turn to Jesus with all your heart.
Put faith in him and realize he paid the fine. Believe and keep believing. He is the son of God, He came to die for our sins. He paid the price with his shed blood.
“For if we go on willfully and deliberately sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice [to atone] for our sins [that is, no further offering to anticipate], but a kind of awful and terrifying expectation of [divine] judgment and THE FURY OF A FIRE and BURNING WRATH WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES [those who put themselves in opposition to God]. Anyone who has ignored and set aside the Law of Moses is put to death without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much greater punishment do you think he will deserve who has rejected and trampled under foot the Son of God, and has considered unclean and common the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and has insulted the Spirit of grace [who imparts the unmerited favor and blessing of God]? For we know Him who said, “V ENGEANCE IS M INE [retribution and the deliverance of justice rest with Me], I WILL REPAY [the wrongdoer].” And again, “T HE LORD WILL JUDGE H IS PEOPLE.” It is a fearful and terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God [incurring His judgment and wrath].” Hebrews 10:26-31 AMP
“Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people-none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. You say, “I am allowed to do anything”-but not everything is good for you. And even though “I am allowed to do anything,” I must not become a slave to anything. You say, “Food was made for the stomach, and the stomach for food.” (This is true, though someday God will do away with both of them.) But you can’t say that our bodies were made for sexual immorality. They were made for the Lord, and the Lord cares about our bodies. And God will raise us from the dead by his power, just as he raised our Lord from the dead. Don’t you realize that your bodies are actually parts of Christ? Should a man take his body, which is part of Christ, and join it to a prostitute? Never! And don’t you realize that if a man joins himself to a prostitute, he becomes one body with her? For the Scriptures say, “The two are united into one.” But the person who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him. Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.”
1 Corinthians 6:9-20 NLT
Divorce and remarriage scriptures
Proverbs 6:26 NLT, For a prostitute will bring you to poverty, but sleeping with another man’s wife will cost you your life.
“And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him. And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away. And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.”
Mark 10:2-12 KJV
“And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.”
1 Corinthians 7:10-11, 39 KJV
“Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.”
Luke 16:18 KJV
“For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.”
Romans 7:2-3 KJV
Men who were born to preach, one of the breathtaking preachers whose sermons have impacted my life.
Uncompramised true man of God. This is powerful.
I thank the Lord for all the great work He has done and is still doing in the lives of Paul Washer and Ray Comfort. Two of my favorite pastors, alongside Jeff Durbin, John MAc Arthur, Steven Lawson and Alistair Begg.
Thats a great lineup, sister!!!
@@meganbell6492 It is. Thank you!!
Add Voddie and John piper to that list!
@@busa4mee was gonna say the exact same thing lol
And Dr. James White
my heart is bursting with joy listening this preaching.... Glory to God in the highest
Joy Kobayashi is such a cool name!
10yrs down the road and the LORD just opened my eyes to this truth 😭. I have no words but I thank God that led me here. Mr Paul Washer I pray God guards your life and that of your family🤲. Thank you for sticking to the truth.
Yep, i think he's right we need more preaches to blast the sleeping backslidden church here in America, where we are only somewhat Christians on Sunday.
If you haven't seen the shocking youth message by Paul Washer you should watch it, it's the sermon that made him famous.
@@daveyingram8934 I have. And all his teachings made me take my salvation seriously. I thank God for teachings like these.
WHERE are the churches whereby this powerful teaching and preaching is found??? I have YET to find one ,ANYWHERE ... in ANY state in which I have lived!
Oh, how I appreciate brother Paul! GLORY!!!
Try Times Square Church NY NY if possible. Or Pastor John Piper of Desiring God based in Minneapolis Minnesota. The Word of God is preached in its proper context by these people as well.
CFC India, go to their channel
Paul is preaching what is called Reformed Theology. You might try googling "reformed churches near me".
Hope Baptist church in Wake Forest, NC
I can't even begin to say what hearing this message did to me.
JESUS LIVES!!!!!
AMEN YES HE DOES!!!!
Amen He lives therefore we will live
Paste Washer is SO ALIGNED, SO ON IT!!
He blows me away EVERY TIME!!
Thank The Lord Our God and His Holy Spirit.
I clapped after finishing to watch a sermon on RUclips. Praise God for that truth. May God help us to be faithful. 1 Corinthians 4:2 - The Lord has called us to be faithful in His work, not our work.
"I don't know why you're clapping, I'm talking about you" 😂
@@sheridanfalkenberry5611 His most famous line - lol!
Everytime I watch a Washer sermon I feel like I've been whacked around the head with a bag of wet sand.
All praise and glory be to God! Always love listening to your messages brother!
This sermon needs to be heard far and wide!
this is by far one of the most amazing sermons i've heard from this guy... the other one is the holiness of god.
Please give respect and show reverence, god is different from God.
my thoughts exactly! such boldness and truth from God’s word 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is what gospel preaching is supposed to be-all glory to GOD!! ❤
ALL PRAISE AND GLORY TO GOD.
I did not grow up in a church. God drew me to myself and despite the church I started going to, God worked on me (outside of the church). The church did exactly what is preached here, but it was God bringing me to the end of myself. Since, I have such a heart for people who grew up in the church and think they are saved but don't show signs of fruit. I have a heart for them because they have never experienced that moment where God did a work and you knew he did. I Thank God because He is who is He. It is so hard to convince someone that maybe was baptized at 10 (my brother) and didn't really know what they were doing and never read the Bible and live opposite of it to convince them that they have not been regenerated. It's incredibly hard for me but not for God. I must keep praying.
„Do not comfort the soul god is breaking“. One of the most powerful statements I’ve ever heard. Definitely helps my tendency to fix ppl.
I am guilty of this as well.
That definitely gut checked me as well! I'm guilty of that so know I will pray for restraint in these situations.
The best sermon I have ever heard. I'm 50.
HE IS NOT LIKE YOU OLD MAN. Luvit. Absolute Gospel Gold. GOD BLESS Paul Washer.
PRAISE YOUR HOLY NAME LORD MASTER JESUS CHRIST 🙌🏼 🙏🏻
This man is PREACHING THE TRUTH!
He talks about all the stuff I've ever questioned about churches and their "procedures" and never gotten an answer. I need to rethink a lot of stuff. Thank you for telling it like it is.
I have been a combat soldier having fought in the 1968 Tet Offensive. I was wounded in action and almost bled to death. The Lord saved me. The point I want to make is that I have seen and experienced my own depravity, The Spirit of the Lord gave me the faith to believe that Jesus Christ is the only righteous One. He is the "I Am."
It is so good to hear the ministry of the word of God, His truth! We need more Paul Washers in the church ministering the word of God, nothing else, but God's Way.
I'm thankful that the lord is full of forgiveness and how he changes people inside and out
Minute 45. Goosebumps. Serious goosebumps.
Amen amen. God bless going brother.
Thank you Lord for this message
I watched this whole message...truly the best sermon on the gospel I have ever heard.
One of the greatest Gospel preacher on the planet earth to the Glory of the Father!
It's not the preacher who is great, it is the Gospel he preaches that is great.
Amen brother Nathan! We are chosen by Him not us choosing Him. That still attempts to have autonomy. Submit and worship is the call. I pray God grants repentance for anyone that comes to Him with their whole heart! And if He does then I will worship Him for them as well.
Siri Bright Absolutely correct sister. You are 100% correct. There is a verse in scripture that says choose this day who you will serve. Being saved is more than just merely choosing Christ. Sure, we have to choose, but it's useless if it isn't followed by repentance. :) it's totally and entirely about submitting to Christ. We don't find him. He finds us and draws us. We have a choice to either choose him which means we turn from our sins and repent or we choose to reject him. Trusting in the sinners prayer is a way to reject Christ and serve bail. God only chooses the ones under his terms of peace, and we must repent and believe. This is what Paul Washer is talking about.
Now I understand what Paul Washer is saying wow 🙆🏽♀️ I just watched a service on RUclips and its exactly what Paul Washer said. Wow.
what a powerful God pleasing message..pure, genuine, serious, truth
Thank you for sharing. May God's Grace be with us.
Amen.
Amen!
Absolutely
Me on October 3rd, 2021, after seeing images of the crown of thorns on His head in my mind, I fell on the side of my bed and wept, "If He wants to save me, LET HIM SAVE ME!!" Crying, knowing it was eternally settled. Then after my crying was done, looking around my room at all my possessions, realizing I must forsake them now. Sinner's prayer doesn't work. Talking to God does.
Praise the Lord!
That’s exactly a year ago. May Gods love and blessings be with you on this day and always.
Praise Jesus for this man bringing forth God's Word. Pure direct and biblical.
One of my all time favorite sermons. God bless you brother Paul.
Wow, wow wow. Wise rebuke will make us who strive to walk in righteousness and have a contrite heart to be still wiser. “Do not comfort the soul that God is breaking” YESSS and Amen
God will stand with you Brother Paul, and so will I -with all that is within me.
I pray that everyone would be able to watch this specially evangelical churches.
One of my favorite contemporary pastors/theologians.
Tq brother Paul Washer.God bless you all 🙏🙏🤲
I am a Southern Baptist. Years ago, repentance was strongly preached from pulpits. But not today. We have lost our way.
Run don't walk
I know this is truth! Personally still being regerated, i was baptised 5 yrs ago, the father didnt start regerating me for 4 yrs.
Fire Preaching , Lord raise up more of these messengers. Leonard Ravenhill, Damon Albert, David Wilkerson, Paul Washer.
And it's amazing that they sound the same as the Bible despite belonging to various denominations
I can sure use the prayer. At age of 5 I got saved, said prayer and understood. I lived for Jesus for 16 years. Then I went way far astray. I have asked Jesus into my heart since then. In case it wasn't real. I lived for Him for years again. Then stopped going to Church, stop showing fruit of The Spirit. I am still unsure of Salvation because of it. I am convinced of my sins so that's what makes me believe that I am saved.
Praise God for Paul Washer, a John the Baptists/Elisha of our day.
Paul Washer, don't have the audience clap, urge them to cry, and rejoice.
Steven: If it was not for the fact that God elects certain people to salvation then absolutely no one would be saved. Salvation in every aspect is fully of God alone. As when God made the covenant with Abraham, if we had anything at all to do with it then we would most certainly lose our salvation within the first hour. Truly He who began the good work in us will complete it.
Amen!
S. Nathan have you even read the NEW TESTAMENT??? It began with the birth of the Son of God. Jesus is the Son of God, the center of the ages, the Lord of Glory, the Bright and Morning Star, His name is Life, in Whom God has bestowed upon Him the Name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD to the glory of God. You will find these passages in the New Testament. Matthew, Philippians, etc. Happy reading! 😊
@@timothyhodges705 even the demons in hell will bow before the King of Kings, how could they not? There is no universal salvation: for many are called but few are chosen.
Are you preaching calvanism?
"Calvanism tries to maintain and protect the integrity of God's sovereignty at the cost of his righteousness."- by a believer in Christ whose name I'll never know.
@@JohnGodwin777 Calvinism is a cult.
The Majority of the churches in now-a-day is Business Halls. I do not say this with Joy, but sadness for the Souls of those that are their Customers. I will continue to Pray for this deplorable condition. May God have mercy on our innocent offspring.
So refreshing !!!! SPEAK THE TRUTH . Tired of milk and powder puff . Give me meat !!!!!! You are RIGHT ON. I am an orphan who was loving God so much that the 5 churches tried to beat ME BACK TO DRY BONES! GoD
Forgive the damage the Church has done
Wow!!!!!!!! If Paul the apostle living today,,, im sure he preached like brother Paul!!! Powerful preaching!
If there is anyone in Perth, Western Australia, who is watching this, who attends a fellowship where this kind of Biblical truth is still believed and preached, please can you let me know where. Every church I go to is trying to emulate Hillsong and it's kind. Are there any church gatherings faithful to the true Gospel and the right dividing of God's word in Perth? All suggestions welcome. Thanks.
Linda C. I hope you would see this reply. Please contact pastor Robert Clancy on the Narrow Path Ministry website or his you tube page...He has a small but growing fellowship. LFCC at Innaloo (has other branches) is a bigger church. I pray that the Lord would lead you and provide for all your needs. (Please contact me on sv4jc18@gmail.com if you need). God bless.
I wish I could ask Pastor Washer himself. I've had so many "conversions." Everytime I hear the gospel truly preached, I feel like I've never truly believed before. I even spent two years reading the Bible for 2 hours every morning and yet, even now, I feel like I'm hearing the true gospel for the first time. And the more it happens, the more I'm convinced I must not be truly saved, because if I was, I'd have understood long ago and would be a far more mature Christian.
😂don't worry I guess you're growing in faith. Usually as days go by we get more opened to the truth and repentance is not a one day event it's a daily thing until that beautiful day we meet Christ and the saints on the golden shore
Thank you Jesus
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If *anyone* hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me".... Jesus Christ...Revelation chapter 3
FYI, I do agree with our brother Paul that the "sinner's prayer" is very dangerous... I know many pastors and evangelist that will have people repeat a prayer that they say and then welcomes them to the family of God... The repentant prayer must be a true apology from our heart to God's.
Where in the scriptures does it teach to say the sinners prayer?
@@j.d.auwerda4795
It doesn't
The sinner's prayer was started by Charles Finney. Check this video. ruclips.net/video/MsgGyAwMdd4/видео.html
Its not just an apology. It's a change of mind and a change of living.
Got something in my eye at 1:03:43
Jesus is the only way by which mankind can be save.
He has full authority and rule over all of creation.
His Kingdom will remain long after time has expired.
There is no other option, choice, or power that is Greater than YHWH.
Thank you Lord for Fulfilling each requirement and We your people stand in your accomplishments with gratitude and fearful respect.
Best sermon ever!
Oswald J. Smith says the following: "
Beware lest you be converted but not regenerated!
“If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Cor. 5:17). You have gone to the inquiry room, but are you “in Christ”? You have responded to the invitation but are you “in Christ”? What change has taken place? Do you hate what you used to love and love what you used to hate?
Do you love the people of God, the house of God, the work of God? Do you have a testimony and do you love to give it? Do you love to pray and study your Bible? Do you love to sing the Gospel hymns? Does your heart burn with love for the Lord Jesus? Is He real to you? Do you have the witness of His Spirit? (Romans 8:14-16).
Or, do you still love the old life? Is your heart still in the world? Do you go to the same shows and the same dances, the same card parties and the same dances, the same worldly amusements? Do you still love your sin? In what way are you different? What evidence is there that you have passed from death unto life? “Ye shall know them by their fruits” (Matt 7:16). Has there been a change?
Taken from article written by Oswald J. Smith: You Have Gone To The Inquiry Room, But Are You A New Creature In Christ -A New Creation?
Wow thank you
Why has this great sermon not gone viral?
One thing I find out from many Christians is that when God wants to break someone, they argue, they fight, they resist. They blame the devil and people come rushing in to comfort that soul until the hand is removed.
They don't want God to disrupt their lives, just to bless them.
56:45 big difference of what it means to confess Jesus as Lord
who's that in your profile pic?
I know that there are different "theological schools" of thought and I don't really think that this will end it, but I wish to try so that we all can be with one accord and have better unity and understanding. I know that I still have a lot to learn, but am willing to dialogue with anyone else that is willing. God bless you all.
Steven Rivera In the world will never unity regarding the teaching of the word of God .Because God not plans to save every human being in the whole world. He save only those who He plan to save.
Evidence that you are saved
Romans 10 (KJV)
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Matthew 13 (KJV)
23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
He’s right. What more could I add?
Awesome God. Yes praise him.
Even though Brother Washer may not have an impressive appearance or approach ...
he raises very good points and is a great encouragement ...
Much like the Apostle Paul or Moses ... with fear ...or stuttering ... but the Lord is always magnified greater than those with eloquent speech
Thank you brother Paul for this message. Towards the middle of this video, I felt God speaking. I feel I heard God, and felt HE used, when YOU spoke God's message to us, His people. God bless you. I think the beginning of the video, while it appears you were reading from Joel Olsteen's book, it was for information on how he relays the word of God or God's will as he interprets it, I feel to see it might cause confusion. May God continue to bless you in the name of Jesus. Abrazo!
My Belorussian Bible college roommate showed me Shocking Youth Message sometime in 2008.
After Bible college, I got mad at God and left church.
CS Lewis referred to the mindset he put himself into to write the Screwtape Letters as a place where all is dust and grit and thirst and itch.
That has been my experience ever since.
🔥🔥🔥🔥LORD thank you for the breath of life. Destroy my atonomy. thank you
Please pray 🙏 for my children and I
I really needed to hear this message. Praise God
God has not called us in ungodliness but in holiness.
Amen ❤ ❤ only love that brought King of kings to surrender to cross...
If you don't see the wrath of the Holy God against our sin, you've never seen the Cross.
PAUL WASHER IS THE BEST PREACHER IN MODERN TIMES.
THIS IS GOSPEL PREACHING.!!
The modern Salvation scheme, used by modern evangelism today, has the Holy Trinity bowing at the almighty feet of mans' free will, admitting that " We have done all we can to save you; won't you allow Us to come in?", and , in fact, reduces the Creator to begging the creation for " allowance " into the creations' heart. The worship of mans' free will will be the cause of myriads of souls being eternally separated from God, and is the epitome of human pride.
As I heard some where else... how much freedom does a dead man have? Dead in our sins. Dry bones. Explain the freedom you have in that. There is a mystery that I can not explain. Somehow we participate. Maybe we participate by working against our so-called free will, I don't know. But I dare not teach anything but the sovereignty of God. He knows how it works.
Dude, what a combo, EZ and Paul on the same convention? I need to learn to share the Gospel like these guys do but if I do it like brother Paul does on his Sermons. Well, that's not how he says you're supposed to do it with non-converts. But I love it. I really need to learn. If I do it like EZ and Ray do on the street, it seems too soft. i've tried both and a combination. I really don't know what I'm doing. I haven't seen a change. Yes I've even read Tactics. Get them to first base. All I've gotten is either rejection, or indifference or silence. It's up to God.
Please pray for me I need your intercession
Praying now! Lord attend to the person’s greatest need. Now and forevermore amen 🙏
Christ is the only Mediator between God the Father and mankind.
Amen! Amen! Amen! ✝️🙏🏻❤️
🥺🥺😢😭 thank you for this video!!!

Well bro Paul practices what he preach. God is no respecter of persons right..?
Stayed and helped the man???????? Wow!!!!!! Cancelled his flight!!!!! My husband hung himself in my closet with a electrical cord ….. I had a 3 year old in the house. The mega church I donated my tithe to every week, my printing company donated full color over the top bulletins, missions, .
No one came to my house to pray. No one came with a dish of food. No one came to help with my child.
25 years ---- never met the “senior pastor” the church ……. A very dangerous place. One of 5 horrific “church” experiences.
You’re tough. I thank God for the strength he has given you.
49:05 makes you wonder how they can take the word receive and turn it into a mans decision of some sort.
Thats why Gods word has more verses for the context.
John 1:12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
To receive something you have to make a decision ~ A Choice to receive or to reject. God gave us a choice and then told us what choice was the best one. Deu_30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Jos_24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Salvation is a gift its not a predestinated right. Salvation is by grace but we only get it by faith. Eph_2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: However each person is given a measure of faith Rom_12:3 according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. So when Jesus says I if I be lifted up will draw all men to me, then how can he do that? He can do that by the fact that everyone has a measure of faith that Christ uses to draw us to Him, when we hear the word of God our faith is increased. We don't get to choose if we have faith or not we all have it what we get to choose is weather or not we will allow our mind to hear the word of God and let that faith grow.. Rom_10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. So then Grace is received through faith and even that faith is not of our own, but it is a gift. But no one can be saved without making a decision to exercise that faith we have by allowing the drawing power of Christ to bring us into a closer view of Jesus on the cross.
You realize, I hope, that that is the most badly translated verse in the NIV.
@@darwinwhite2091 You say on one hand that you receive Salvation through faith (as making a decision to believe) and on the other hand you say that Jesus gave the faith in the first place.
Now, either it's yours or is from Jesus. Hebrews says it clear that it's Jesus who is the Author and the Finisher of our faith so, based on Scripture (Heb 12:2) even the faith we have is from Jesus.
Yeah, you choose, but you choose according to YOUR NATURE! and what do you choose? Well, Ephesians 2 says it clearly but you skipped that part
And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which *you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air* , the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves *in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind* , and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
Ephesians 2:1-3 NKJV
Yeah you choose, but because you are *DEAD* you can *ONLY CHOOSE* what a dead person can choose: stay dead and play dead (as in go on corrupting yourself in all that flesh corruption brings)
*BUT GOD!!* what did God do? Offered you a way? Well yeah, in a sense but *FIRST* He Made You Alive (He brought you from death to life and gave you a New identity by making you alive with Christ).
Now, it clearly says (I will not quote it, just read the *WHOLE* Chapter 2 of Ephesians) that from your death He brought you to Life. It doesn't say that He showed you a way so that you may choose to make yourself alive did He?
It is God Who in His Love While you we're *dead* gave His only begotten Son as a Propitiation for your sin so that He might gave you His rightousness in order to have a relationship with A Holy God instead of the death penalty that rests upon your head. It Was His initiative not yours! You were just dead and just sat there in corruption, powerless awaiting your total destruction!
You cannot make yourself alive nor can choose anything because you have no breath in you.
That's the Grace! That's His Love! That's His Salvation!
Is it normal to hate myself and my own sin? Like it’s hard for me to think of myself and my sin. And hard for me to forgive myself of my sin toward others
Paul speaks the truth here from more or less the office, gifting and position of a prophet. What we desperately need are evangelists that understand this truth and live it. Ray comfort is one of the few I've run across. Unfortunately at least 90% of church house preachers I've ever heard use some version of the unbiblical Finney formula. Sometimes it makes me wonder if they themselves have ever even been saved. I'd like to know how to reach these preachers with the truth.😢
Are there any resources specifically geared to/for false converts; for those that have 'made a decision' earlier in their life?
I want to go to heaven and be with Christ.
I'm still struggling with assurance! And speaking of Jesus at the door. If u ever look at the pic u will notice the only door know is on ur side. He can't open door and walk in uninvited
Oh, how I wish Washer had listed his sources, esp. through about minute 16:00! Anyone know?
You make ONE decision to believe in Christ for salvation. Upon believing, we are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. We are baptized into the Body of Christ, through his death, burial, and resurrection. We are justified, glorified, and seated with Christ in the heavenlies. We are heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. By the Spirit we are released from the bondage of fear. We cry "Abba, Father." The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
I was done that exact way at the age of 13 and I was dead my whole life then he came to me and it was something that when I try to explain it to people they look at me like in crazy and that’s ok and I have ran from him since then and he called me to repentance and that gave me even more reassurance That I am not of this world Jesus Christ is Lord and he calls
Yup there’s nowhere to go once he’s got you.
He never presented the Gospel. He just preached that other people don't preach the Gospel.
