I've backslide and stopped attending the church. I though it was okay. During that time I've committed atrocious sins and now seeing how my pride invited the devil to tempt me to succumb to sin again and again. I am now repenting from all the things I've done and I've been praying for God's guidance and mercy towards me. This message opens my eyes to all the things I refused to see back then. I know I may be stranger to all of you but I would like to ask for prayers from each of you. Thank you
I'm praying for you. You can cry out to Jesus, right where you are. Repent and ask Jesus to lead you to the right church. He's faithful to hear your cries. May God bless you with the grace to be reconciled to Christ, right away. He loves you more than you could ever understand. Be encouraged 🕊️✝️🙏🏽
@@baconchannel2501 I know that my salvation is true. And I know that God is a just and merciful God and He had already forgiven me. I was, at the beginning, the one who cannot forgive myself. Thank you for the prayers. I really need it. I hope and pray that God may continue to bless and protect you.
@@ylp3able Thank you for the prayers. I understand it now. I was thankful to God that I was surrounded with His people that continues to encourage and to pray for me. I am at peace right now. I know that the Devil will try to tempt me again or question God's word as well as my repentance but I will continue on. I am at peace with my church as well. Thank you.
@@tony1685 we are not Jews with Jesus. Get out of religion we are His adopted Sons and Daughters. His Mercy reached into all the world for whomever wants it and repents and trusts in Him, and OBEYS, not a specific group bro........
@@TheDivineCallingofJesusChrist so you're saying it's now ok to ignore God's Ten Commandments , Sir? you wrote: _'we are not Jews with Jesus.'_ - 2 problems: 1 - _'Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham.'_ - Gal 3:7 2 - the Sabbath is no more 'jewish' than the other 9 Commandments. you then wrote: _'His Mercy reached into all the world for whomever wants it and repents...'_ - 'repents' of what? sin? then logically, you'd keep His Commandments - see 1 John 3:4
@@tony1685 my friend the Jews of Abraham turned into a religion there was always the bloodline hence is why we had Jesus through David, they understood what animal sacrifices men it was never about keeping the law but for being righteous through Christ the sacrificial lamb that has yet to come Abraham knew who the Lord was! The Lord is whom talk to Abraham and talk to Moses talk to can talk to Adam and Eve in Garden. The Gospel of Jesus Christ has not changed since the Garden of Eden symbolically we are to take of the tree of Life Jesus Christ. Jesus gave us two great commandments that hang all the law of the prophets which in all honesty there is a little bit more responsibility than the Mosaic law because it has to do with living a moral life not that of religious one friend.. John the Baptist was calling out to all and especially those vipers that ended up coming in, they knew they had done wrong they knew they needed repentance because they were charging people for scriptures they were tithing or they were oppressing the system they were Romans of seeking baptism because they understood what was going on to some degree that they needed God's forgiveness it has never changed since the Garden of Eden. Through Christ we can live a righteous life he freed us from the bondage of sin 2000 years ago and now we are to walk accordingly not in sin! Sacrifice on the cross allowed us to be freed from the bondage of sin it does not involve practicing mosaic laws it involves following Jesus Christ and what he said in the 4 Gospel friend.
@@tony1685 The ten commandments that were given unto Moses was to teach the Israelites that they were in need of a savior and that none of them could follow it to a t unlike Jesus Christ on cross ❤️ only through Jesus are we righteous in the eyes of God not by following the Mosaic Law that Jesus fulfilled the law that's why we follow Him!
Thank the Lord for providing technology that allows people like us all the way from Africa to still benefit from the wisdom and experience God has given to Pastor Paul.
I agreed. From America's to THE Africa I'm thankful for this technology to watch what wiser people than Brian has to say on how we can follow God more precisely and fight evil. Amen brother
Unfortunately it’s rare to hear a brother in Christ give instructions like this. With a pure heart, really trying to help. I love you Paul. God bless you
@@thomascoffin5267yes for sure but not enough Christian people men and women and the olde the youggins speak about what we ought. Not what we should. But what we get to do. And although it's as Paul washer Is composing all the parts of a TV and selling it to us in good format I know it's convenient and practically good that a human know precisely how a TV should become by one single human. Its effectiveness is low. But millions of people who do their job and remember other events in life more than the specific pieces of hundreds in a TV is more meaning fully filled. And honestly I don't think that's bad what Paul washer in how he does it because at God's greatest he provides with great men as he. I'm sure Paul washer works his hands too. As we all should. Especially Christians should never seem lazy much less become lazy because we have the most reasonable faithful rational and loving as to why we ought get to do it.
@@thomascoffin5267 Romans 4:5. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on Him who Justifieth the UNGODLY, His faith is counted for HIs perfect righteousness. Just as David describeth the blessedness of the man to whom the Lord imputeth righteousness, APART FROM WORKS. Blessed is the man whose sins are covered, Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. Colossians 2:13. He has forgiven us ALL trespasses. Second Corinthians 5:21. For He who knew no sin, Jesus, became sin for us, so that we might be made the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Him. Acts 16:31 Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved from hell for ever. John 3:18. Believers are no longer condemned to hell, but UNBELIEVERS are condemned already because they have not believed on the name of the Son of God. Romans 1:16. For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, (First Corinthians 15:1-4) For it is the POWER of God unto salvation to everyone that BELIEVETH, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Jesus paid our sin debt in full, so we can never ever be condemned again. John 3:18. Standing on the promises of God my savior. John 6:47. God cannot lie. John 3:16.

And grieve not the Holy Spirit in whom ye are SEALED UNTO THE DAY OF REDEMPTION.
Agreed, but Not in old school Pentecostal churches Holiness and separation were a prerequisite for genuine power to accompany the preaching of the gospel That’s why they see God heal and deliver much more But nobody wants to pay the cost of setting oneself apart and being broken and purged
Paul Washer is misguiding you, he is telling the lies of the devil at the beginning. Paul Washer misused the Word of God at the beginning "If we say we have no sin.." (1. John). This counts for people with their mind on the flesh, not for us children of God who walk in the spirit. In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother." If you want to get free of ongoing sin you should start to live in the spirit and accept that you are a new pure creation in Jesus if you are reborn in Jesus. You can't sin and be in Jesus at the same time, if you sin you must have left Jesus before. Stop believing the lies of the devil who wants you to believe you are still (in) your flesh and you have to do what you don't want to do. Your flesh is dead (for all children of God), it has no more power over you, read Romans 8. In Romans 7 you can find out how it is to live in the flesh and at the end the way out of this mess = grace. In Romans 8 you then read that we children of God are not in the flesh anymore, we are in the spirit and we do not walk in flesh we walk in the spirit = free of the mess. But the devil wants your mind on the flesh so you walk in the flesh again so you do what you don't want to do again. And God wants you to lead your mind by the spirit. Getting right your mind is important: "6 The sinful human mind results in death, but having the mind led by the Spirit results in life and peace." The holy spirit shows us the truth, we children of God are a new pure creation in Jesus and able to resist all temptations. We are pure, which means we do not need to bathe again, only our feet need to be cleaned so we walk in truth. We do not have to do what we don't want to do if we live according to our new creation in Jesus. Believe and trust in Jesus, his holy spirit within you and let yourself guide by the spirit so you are able to love Jesus. And to love Jesus means to do what God tells you through the holy spirit.
I've been a Christian for several years and every time I get more involved in the Word of God or the Church, the devil attacks. Christianity is harder than atheism by a long shot but the rewards of eternity in Christ will be well worth it
Very true. When you stand with The Messiah in all efforts to walk His way, the spiritual attacks can be relentless until you learn how to intercede with warfare prayers. We need to remember that if satan isn't attacking us, we are doing his work just fine. When he is attacking us, we know we are a threat to his kingdom and he wishes to tear that down. We gotta stand firm, even at the cost of these earthly bodies. 2 Corinthians 5: 6-8 6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 7 (for we walk by faith, not by sight:) 8 we are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

7:08 “If you’re going to neglect your study of scripture, memorization, meditation of scripture. Then you’re opening your life to less and less conformity and more and more sin.”
Ironic what you said regarding sin, that hopefully it will be a lot less as we grow. As I've grown, I am becoming more and more aware how much I sin and how helpless and hopeless I am without Christ. I think the most important thing I've learned over the years, is that walking in the Spirit is not learning to be 'self sufficient', but becoming completely dependent on the Holy Spirit. like a child who is truly dependent on their parents, completely trusting.
@@UserBR-v6l All of us have sin for which we are not aware. Our own pride blinds us to it. As we walk with Christ the truth of the spirit works in us. Some things might be obvious but some are well hidden. Remember God's standards are not our own standards. Remember the words of Jesus. Matthew 5:28 "But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." Many of us have unforgiveness. Many of us do not love enough other people; particularly our enemies. Perhaps you are far advanced and forgotten the difficulties of contesting with your flesh. Perhaps like most if not all of us; some of your own sin is yet hidden. Only God knows. I wish you well.
Look to everyone who struggles with sin, just know that I have fallen further then almost all christians in my life, so far down I fell to fentanyl about a year ago. So remember lust, pride, addictions, hate, lies, porn and every sin no matter how great or small Jesus can forgive. I have turned my life back to Jesus and I feel he has forgiven me for my many sins, I have a freedom in Jesus that only comes from sincerely completely turning back to God. As soon as I repented (really repented) I felt that I was sanctified and set free again and immediately god convicted me on some wrongs I needed to right. The holy spirit of God and Jesus is so wonderful in his grace, to forgive our sins and remember them no more. peace from canada,,Jesus reigns
Love to see confession and repentance. Something we (I myself) have lost the art of consistent practice. We also need to practice amongst a local community. Praise to Jesus brother. See you in the Kingdom!
@@JustHuman87 Amen GOd is great. I find my conscience is clearer when I confess my sins to my fellow man and especially to God. I have my many faults, (past addictions, lust pride etc) however apologising is one gift God gave me and for some its refreshing. THanks for your encouragement. Funny thing is in scripture Jesus seems to say in parables those who "beat their breast and realise and admit their sins" are better then those who sin less and act like they have no sin. what an amazing savior we have, I could brag about him all day and I try to, unfortunately so many despise or reject God including family. To me Jesus is more real than my own breath. see you around online or in paradise. Peace from Canada.
@trinitywright7122 God has always been in the business of salvation. All that ever lived and were saved. were saved by faith, BY HIS GRACE. From, Adam to the last man that would ever believe. No man has ever accomplished the perfection and sinlessness of the LORD JESUS CHRIST. WE HAVE ALL FALLEN SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD. WE ARE LIVING IN THE DAY OF SALVATION, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEART. TODAY IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE THE FREE GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES. MY FRIEND, IF YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON, YOU ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. IF YOU ARE A RELIGIOUS PERSON, YOU ARE NOT RELIGIOUS ENOUGH. IF YOU ARE A FAITHFUL PERSON, YOU ARE NOT FAITHFUL ENOUGH. IF YOU ARE A DEDICATED PERSON, YOU ARE NOT DEDICATED ENOUGH. IF YOU ARE A COMMITTED PERSON, YOU ARE NOT COMMITTED ENOUGH. IF YOU STOP SINNING, YOU HAVEN'T STOP SINNING ENOUGH. IF YOU ARE RIGHTEOUS MAN, YOU ARE NOT RIGHTEOUS ENOUGH. DO I HAVE TO CONTINUE? YOU ALSO HAVE FALLEN SHORT, AND ARE IN NEED OF A SAVIOR. THE JEWS THAT WERE BLIND CRUCIFIED HIM, THE JEWS THAT COULD SEE WORSHIP HIM, EVERY RELIGION ON EARTH HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH HIM RATHER THEY ACCEPT HIM OR REJECT HIM. JESUS HIMSELF, ASKED THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION EVER. WHOM DO YOU SAY THAT I AM? HE DID ALL THE THINGS THAT ONLY GOD CAN DO, AND HE DID THEM IN THE FLESH. HE SAID IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME BELIEVE THE WORKS THAT I DO. I BELIEVE IN JESUS THE SON OF GOD, WHO IS GOD HIMSELF IN THE FLESH. THE TRIUNE GOD OF ISREAL, (THE TRINITY) THE GOD OF ABRAHAM ISSAC AND JACOB. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY, WITHOUT THE RESURRECTION OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST THERE IS NO HOPE OF BEING RESURRECTED. THERE IS NO HOPE OF ANY RESURRECTION, APART FROM JESUS. King James Bible Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: MY FRIEND THIS IS THE REQUIREMENT FOR ETERNAL LIFE. 29The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. 30He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31(They replied, “(BELIEVE) IN THE LORD JESUS, AND YOU WILL BE SAVED) you and your household.” 32Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. 33At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized. 34The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; HE WAS FILLED WITH JOY BECAUSE HE HAD COME TO( BELIEVE ) IN GOD -he and his whole household. WOW, THE DISCIPLES PREACHED JESUS, AND THEY CAME TO BELIEVE IN GOD. IN JOHN 6 IT SAYS. 28Then they asked him, “What must we do to be doing the works of God ” 29JESUS ANSWERED, “THE WORK OF GOD IS THIS: TO BELIEVE IN THE ONE HE HAS SENT.” JESUS IS THE ONE GOD HAS SENT. JESUS IS THE SAVIOR, THE MESSIAH, THAT THE JEWS WAITED FOR BUT DIDN'T RECOGNIZE HIM WHEN HE CAME. New King James Version and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, BECAUSE YOU DID NOT (KNOW) THE TIME OF YOUR VISITATION.” CONSEQUENCES FOR NOT RECOGNIZING JESUS CHRIST. King James Bible He came unto his own, and his own received him not. AT THIS MOMENT THE JEWS AND MUSLIMS ARE WORKING ON THEIR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH, BECAUSE TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS COMES BY FAITH. BELIEVE IN THE LORD JESUS AND YOU WILL BE SAVED. New International Version Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. THE BIBLE CLEARLY SAYS. ( THAT IF RIGHTEOUSNESS CAME BY THE LAW GOD WOULD HAVE GAVE US A LAW WHEREBY WE COULD GET SAVED BY. ) New International Version galatians 3;21 Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! (FOR IF A LAW HAD BEEN GIVEN THAT COULD IMPART LIFE, THEN RIGHTEOUSNESS WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE COME BY THE LAW. This verse clearly say that God never gave us a law, that could save us if we keep it, and that there is no law that was given for us to be saved by. So if we are not saved by the law then how are we saved? Answer by grace through faith in Jesus. Everyone trying to be good enough to be saved is delusional, Jesus is the only way to receive salvation. After you have believe the gospel and are saved, then you can live as godly as you want but not to get saved, but because you are saved. New International Version I do not set aside the grace of God, (FOR IF RIGHTEOUSNESS COULD BE GAINED THROUGH THE LAW, ) CHRIST DIED FOR NOTHING!” WELL YOU ONLY HAVE ONE CHOICE. BELIEVE, IN JESUS CHRIST, BELIEVE IN THE DEATH BURRIAL AND RESURRECTION, AND BE SAVED. WHEN YOU ARE SAVED, GOD EQUIPS YOU TO LIVE OUT A GODLY LIFE. YOU WILL BEAR FRIUT. BUT BE ⚠️ WARNED. JUDE 1:4 New Living Translation I say this because some ungodly people have wormed their way into your churches, saying that God’s marvelous grace allows us to live immoral lives. The condemnation of such people was recorded long ago, for they have denied our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. If you say that a man can lose salvation, you are saying salvation does not belong to the LORD.
Thankful to be a truck driver. I listen to the full bible every month on my dwell app and also read my physical bible daily. And constant prayer. What hes saying is true!! Iv never been this strong. Praise God for His word
The letter cannot convict,we need to preach,as Christ did to nicodemus, john3vto16,unless we are born again we cannot see the kingdom of God,we need to be BAPTISED in water and in the Holy SPIRIT to enter the kingdom,so that the Holy SPIRIT becomes the teacher.God is SPIRIT and we can only worship him in SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.THERE ARE 3 THAT BEAR WITNESS THE BLOOD THE WATER AND THE SPIRIT, AND THESE 3 BEAR WITNESS IN AGREEMENT MATHEW 23V1TO16,THIS SETS US FREE,FROM MOSES SEAT OF AUTHORITY INTO CHRIST as our teacher,and Leader.
What a great opportunity to hear His Word. We’re told to “set you mind on things above not on earthly things. Your life is hidden with Christ in God, so that when Christ who is our life appears we shall also appear with Him in glory. Wow, what a promise!
"16 hours a day behind enemy lines" is the most brilliant comment on the world and the effects of sin I have ever heard. A knew way for me to think. Thank you Paul.
@@reynaldoperez7285why do you keep posting this reply to comments, it’s been some time, but were you truly seeking truth, or poking around for conflict?
Paul is one of very few men left who unashamedly, boldly preach sound, Biblical doctrine. His messages are strengthening, at times convicting, refreshing and encouraging.
Sadly Paul Washer lies in this video at the beginning. We children of GOd are free of ongoing sin if we live according to our new nature in the spirit. Paul Washer misused the Word of God at the beginning "If we say we have no sin.." (1. John). This counts for people with their mind on the flesh, not for us children of God who walk in the spirit. In 1. John 3, 9 we read we children of God can't sin: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." If you want to get free of ongoing sin you should start to live in the spirit and accept that you are a new pure creation in Jesus if you are reborn in Jesus. You can't sin and be in Jesus at the same time, if you sin you must have left Jesus before. Love Jesus and you will keep his commandments ( John 14, 15). And to love Jesus means to listen to God and to do what he tells you (through the holy spirit within you).
I do not sin if I stay in Jesus. It happened that I left Jesus and with that also my true me, and then I sinned again but God showed me right away the way back through the holy spirit. I do not have ongoing sin like my old gone me. It is like ROmans 8 says I let myseolf and my mind guide by the holy sppirit and not like my old from the flesh. In Romans 7 Paul says how it is to live in the flesh, that you do what you don't want to do and don't do what you want to do. And then at the end of Romans 7 he tells us that there is a way out = Grace. In Romans 8 he then tells us that we chldren of God are free of that mess of doing what we don't want because we live in the spirit. At that is not just theroy it is life I experienced and experience. I just need to stay in Jesus, in my true self. 1. Jon 3, 4 - 6: "4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him." Who stays in Jesus can not sin verse 6. I, we children of God, do not fight against flesh, we fight against spirits. And some spirits try to make us guide by the felsh again. By distracting us and keep us busy. So it can happen, that I also have my mind on fleshly things and rarely do something I shouldn't do but it ends very quickly. It is no ongoing sin. And the Word of God says god can make us walk flawless. So it is possible that my rarely becomes never while I walk on earth. I am new in Jesus, from God reborn in Jesus. My old nature is dead, now I got a pure nature from God. As long as I stay in the love of Jesus I am my true self, a child of God who can't sin = 1. John 3, 9: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." So do not believe the false words of Paul Washer. I don't believe him because I know and live the truth: 1. John 4, 4: "4 Little children, you are of God and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He Who lives in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world." @@rkip123456
@michaelkindgottes stop deceiving people. to tell a Christian they can meet the perfection of Jesus by not sinning is to undermine the beautiful role of Christ. through His righteousness are we made righteous. you cant go a day without sinning, part of submitting yourself to Christ is realizing that you are helplessly bound by your entire being to sin, and require salvation from it. if every born-again Christian could manage complete sinlessness by God's grace, That would be the work of Christ. no sacrifice needed. I pray you turn from this thinking and return to Christ. for those of you reading this, read your Word and pray for discernment with this if this troubles you. God bless
This is solid gold. As one who fell into sin just 2 nights ago after avoiding that sin for nearly a year; I can confirm a few things. First I thought I was stronger than I was and when I sinned I was surprised that I had fallen into it. This was a pride issue and also one of overconfidence. Second I allowed the temptation to go on far longer than I should have. If I had gone right to Jesus and prayed for strength I know he would have given it. The truth is that I allowed the temptation to go on too long because even the temptation had started to become pleasurable in a way. To look at the fruit and consider it too long. Soon I had bitten into it and it was too late to avoid the fall. So please be warned and go to Jesus quickly. Take your thoughts captive and bring them to Jesus for help. Always better to obey God than to fall and need to repent. Yet also always better to repent and to do it quickly than to run from God. Hope this helps somebody. The only good that came out of this was being reminded well of God's grace and the humility it added to me.
I appreciate this...feels like pastor Paul is speaking to me one on one like a dad. Thank you...I remember when I was in sin before.. I felt helpless I couldn't get out, I doubted if God was even true. But I was in there bcz I didn't meditate on God's word, I flirted with the snake instead of running away from it, even had opportunities to kill the sin but I kept coming back. I was so broken in sin that I wanted to die bcz I can't stop. But God saved me, He opened my eyes, He helped me... it was a long road to recovery and painful as it is... I needed that discipline of my loving Father so I can be united with Him. He is unbelievably patient and merciful to me. 5 years passed and I have never felt so much joy, contentment and peace. God fills my heart with everything I used to crave for. He is my full satisfaction. HE IS MY LORD. 🥹
I had 4 deaths from June to July this year. Literally in one month, while being persecuted, while being rejected as well. It drove me to drinking, smoking, murmuring, things I know I was delivered from. Every morning I read my Bible until the tragedy struck. I’m nothing without Jesus Christ when I missed 39 days without waking up with my eyes on Christ I could feel it, things felt wrong. I Thank God for this message. Thank You For Sharing.
My friend, nothing I can write can adequately soothe such a blow, instead Ill remind of the promises of His Holy word. In heaven you will be given new bodies, free of pain, he will wipe every tear from your eye, he will cast Satan into lake fire and you'll never be tormented with his lies ever again, you'll never be alone again as you'll be in the company of every single Christian who ever lived! Friends, the family members you lost here on earth, the people in the Bible and especially our Lord Himself! You'll dwell in a land of beauty beyond your wildest imagination! God's promise is perfect and all these things you will have and more! Yes, you suffered a temporary loss today, but tomorrow a glorious eternity waits. Don't give up my friend, God is far from done! He loves you more than you know. Peace.

Thank you I loved that , I got saved Aug 13 1978 I have never been the same , when I do something wrong I confess it and ask for forgiveness. I’m 86 today but the devil don’t leave us alone just because we are old. Keep in the word and pray often.
Good preaching! Sound teaching! Sinning is deliberate! We chose to do it! Sin is a result of willingness to disobey God, despise his authority and bring to nothing his governance over us. I must chose to obey God!
Iv publicly given my life to Jesus, and asked Him to be Lord over my life..😢😢However, im struggling with anger and bitterness especially now, when i just found out that my husband is cheating on me😢Please help me break free from anger
I know how you feel and I’m having similar anger issues as a result. Funny he went don’t think of anger as a sin and yet it is. I pray He will give us both freedom from our anger etc. God bless you
You have valid reason to feel anger. Do not deny it. Turn to Christ with it. It is okay to feel and be angry. It is not okay what happened. Just do not act on the anger in wrath, slander or sin and do not go to bed on the anger. Counselling with your husband is a good idea. I am so sorry that you are going through this kind of sin. 💜🙏
Ephesians 4:26-27 NKJV "Be angry, and do not sin": do not let the sun go down on your wrath, [27] nor give place to the devil." you have a right to be angry about what happened to you but Gods word tells us to not sin because of it, I think that also means to forgive but you can still feel the feelings you have right now.

I remember when going to church was such a chore. One that I forced myself to go to out of fear and a sense of duty. Now I’m saved, It’s a necessity to be in the fellowship of other Christians and it’s 1 part of a source of joy and strength.
If you belong to Jesus God will give you the strength to endure and overcome every temptation. 1 CORINTHIANS 10, 13 "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." And if you want to get rid of ongoing sin start to believe you are a new pure creation in Jesus in case you belong to Jesus. And then start to walk in the spirit like God tells us through his word. In Jesus we do not sin. In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother." Jesus also sais if you love him you will keep his commandments (John 14, 15). It is a promise of God. And to love Jesus means to do what God tells you through the holy spirit. Love expresses itself in good works for the one you love. You only truly believe in Jesus if you love Jesus. Faith is dead without works like the body is dead without the spirit.
Pray that God would fill you with the Holy Spirit and change you. "Whatever you ask in My name, I will do it so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it." -John 14:13-14
Prioritize reading the Bible over youtube videos. I have been reading my Bible every morning and every evening for the last year and a half. It has changed my life. The change will not happen over night, but you will grow closer to God as you study His word.

I'm here after Dr. Lawson... heart rending. Let us examine our own hearts in light of such a sobering fall, while we pray for Brother Lawson's full repentance and restoration, and for all of those affected by his sin. 1 Corinthians 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. Romans 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
My testimony: I realized one of the painful and testing moments of every believer is that when you are struggling with sexual sin or sin in general, it is truly committing to leave all that behind and surrender to God. It is the hardest thing I've done because I knew my struggles were real, and it was not an immediate answer to my prayers. It was a process of transformation I had to go through by doing everything so mandane but extremely profound at the end. Spending time with the Lord, praying, repenting, reading the Scripture, and waiting on Him was my deliverance from sinfulness. I recognize it is a lifelong habit and a new way of living if I honor Jesus. I have tasted His goodness, and the Holy Spirit guides my way. I am not sinless but am very alert to encroaching temptation and its destruction. Through my obedience and trust, God sustains me with profound peace in my life, which I never felt before. Hope you experience the same and start your journey of obedience today. Blessings ❤
Thank you so much dear Pastor. May God bless you more. I am single and I Ve been exposed to some unholy images and videos. Since yesterday, I have beem passing through some temptation of sexual immorality and mastubation. I deeply know in my heart that this kind of life is against God and myself. After praying this afternoon, I encountered your sermons for the first time. I am so grateful for God for the freedom I received from this speech.
I truly believe we suffer as Christians we have victory. We also have defeat. Everything is pointed back to what Jesus Christ did on the cross dying for our sins. I pray that we all continue in the faith leaning after God‘s mercy direction walking after the spirit now giving into the flesh brothers and sisters stay strong seeking the Lord for guidance. I see so much pain when I read comments, I myself struggle ooo wretched man that I am
Jesus has got you bro, trust in Him NOT in yourself, you can’t finish in the flesh what was begun in the spirit. Trust in him , read His word, have faith avoid sexual immorality love and forgive people, you’ll do well cause your going to be holding up His works not your own like those who will hear the words I don’t know you. I love ya and I hope you have an amazing week, we have an amazing saviour!
Incredible. Such gentleness coupled with great convicting scriptures and talking points. Thank you brother Paul for your God lead insight and references. I struggle with sexual sin and I hardly ever flee. God’s been strengthening me to flee more often so I know the Holy Spirit is working in me. I like the point you made about Christians finding an escape route or making sure I’m not alone too often to indulge in sinful acts. Such great reminders for a struggling and tired soul. Your gentleness in the start of the video explaining that even though I’m a mess of a human being, God wants me to seek Him out for help in this lengthy battle with sin. Please Lord God, humble me so that I only speak your Truth. For it is the only thing that brings joy in my life.
Seek out Godly friends for Biblical counsel. Speak to your pastor. That what they're there for, to shepherd you. You must also be spending time with God. Cry out to Him. Ask Him for strength. Our enemy wants us to think we're helpless, but WE ARE NOT.
Please pray for me someone. Im struggling deep with physical pain. Pray that the doctor can diagnose me accurately so i could get treated quickly. Dealing with stomach pain for the last few months. 😢 Also dealing with deep rooted sin issues. I need a soul rival.
This gentleman is good and real. Thank you Paul Washer for the wisdom and knowledge in that teaching on how to limit sin in the life of a follower of Christ who has been born again.
He is absolutely correct. In my young men's ministry that I started a few months ago, I still held on to some sins from my previous life. And it about unraveled the young men's group. However, when I started to have accountability partners, confessing my sin both to God and to those around me, the ministry has gotten deeper and I just overall feel a lot better. That sin was in fact pornographic material and watching horrible movies. And gluttony. I still battle every day, but I know now that I have God, His Word, and brothers by my side every step of the way. Praise God!
I was at a mens conference where Albert Tate spoke. He used this illustration of a guy who had a large pet snake that he let have free roam around his house. This snake would lay in his bed with him too. The snake started laying straight out and did this repeatedly. So the guy called his vet and the vet stated 'you need to get away from the snake, its sizing itself up to you to try to eat you". The point being, dont lay down with something that is trying to kill you.
0:50 it’s not that they’re sinless but that when they see sin in their lives they recognize it, are sorrowful/regretful, take responsibility for it, confess it, and turn from it
Thank you. I feel like you made this video for me. The journey to being "born again" is a difficult. But, after we have received the holy spirit it's really soul crushing to deal with the disappointment when we return to old sins. I feel I am winning the battle every day... but the battle never ends
- I feel like I should be more advanced in the faith and should not sin- but that I think is something I can never do - so I March on knowing that and pray for forgiveness - I just lost a sister in Christ that passed away that I could confess with - now praying for a new sister to confess with - Jesus is LORD
In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother." Time for you to see the truth. Paul washer is a liar. We children of God are free of the power of sin and are able to resist all temptations. But for that we need to live in the spirit by grace. Like it is written in Romans 8. Stop believing the lies of the devil who wants you to believe you are still (in) your flesh and you have to do what you don't want to do (ongoing sin). Your flesh is dead (for all children of God), it has no more power over you. In Romans 7 you can find out how it is to live in the flesh and at the end the way out of this mess = grace. In Romans 8 you then read that we children of God are not in the flesh anymore, we are in the spirit and we do not walk in flesh we walk in the spirit = free of the mess. But the devil wants your mind on the flesh so you walk in the flesh again so you do what you don't want to do again. And God wants you to lead your mind by the spirit. Getting right your mind is important: "6 The sinful human mind results in death, but having the mind led by the Spirit results in life and peace." The holy spirit shows us the truth, we are a new pure creation in Jesus and able to resist all temptations. We do not have to do what we don't want to do if we live according to our new creation in Jesus. Believe and trust in Jesus, his holy spirit within you and let yourself guide by the spirit so you are able to love Jesus. And to love Jesus means to do what God tells you trough his holy spirit. If you love Jesus you will keep his commandments (John 14, 15). That is truth and a promise of God.
7:55 is how I've always read the Bible ever since I learnt the discipline of reading it: thank you Brother Paul for confirming how I should continue in this practice and how to apply its teachings
Strengthening my spirit man by fasting and praying is currently one of my difficulties. I've noticed that tithing and offerings makes our walk stronger.
Thanks brother Paul for the reminder on how to be victorious over sin! A discipline that I'm trying to apply more and more each day. God give your church the strength to kill temptations for your Glory.
Amen sir, thank you so much for these words. I needed to hear this, and I may need to hear it again. God bless you and those that see this. Temptation and sin truly do brong death. I find myself so oftem falling for the Satans lies and the lies of others. I find myself giving into the temptation to combat evil but with what is more evil. I hate sin so much. God save us and forgive us. Amen

I meant to type G3. It was at the Georgia International Convention Center, in Atlanta, not at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles.
what brother Paul Washer is saying is absolutely right. Proverbs 23:7 Jesus said whatsoever a man thinketh so is he. We are not even supposed to entertain sinful thoughts in our mind. Alot of people think that sin has to do with just committing the actual act if sin but its deeper than this we are not to even entertain sinful thoughts in our mind. thoughts such as lust, perverted thoughts, sexual immoral thoughts, twisted thoughts and more. keep your mind pure ! ask the Lord Jesus Christ to help you purify your mind and run from thoughts of sin. Also, the purification of the mind allows us to be more receptive to hearing the voice of God and helps us to live a more fearless life also lighter on our feet because were not weighed down by the entertainment of sinful thoughts.
Thank you, Brother Paul. I’m making an effort to read my Bible more, reading it right now even, seeing more about how needed it is. God’s been telling me this for a long time, and yet I wonder why I struggle so much.
After being born again, I've memorized a very large chunk of the gospel. But I've been struggling with lust for years. And every time I give in to lust. I feel like less than garbage.
I struggle with it too. Watch out you don't feel like the victim. Also recognize you can't fix it without God. And like was said in the video; it's a counterfeit. God has the real deal. I promise you he has got something better, something lovely even. What also helps is praying in those moments. And flee from it. Stay strong brother!!
Same, friend. His grace is sufficient. We gotta lean in to grace. Easier said than done. We often think we’re beyond repair. But God is good, and we gotta trust that He began a good work in us. With us it’s impossible. Nothing is impossible for Him. Keep on pressing on my brother.
Yes I agree. I've struggled with the same sin of lust for many years myself and have been a Christian for years. I also am broken over the fact that I have struggled for so long. Only Christ can completely deliver us from this terrible sin. God bless you all.
"knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [Him] in order that the body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin. … But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, … Likewise count yourselves also to be truly dead to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts." (Rom 6:6,8,11-12) You ARE supernaturally crucified WITH HIM, if you're truly regenerated, but you really have to COUNT yourself a dead man, dead to sin, and you WILL, THROUGH HIM, have power over your lusts! We don't need to serve it anymore, you must understand this! HE provided it all, it IS finished. Waiting for Him to somehow change you into someone who easily resists, WON'T HAPPEN! Read Romans Chapters 6, 7 & 8 and try to grasp your spiritual situation, pray over it, ask the Lord to explain it to you! HE WILL! And whenever you're tempted in your thoughts, when certain awful ideas come into your mind, RUN TO HIM IMMEDIATELY, thank Him, that your're crucified WITH HIM, and ask HIM to take those thoughts away! And HE WILL! Guaranteed! The only relevant questions here are: Do you REALLY know HIM and do you REALLY want this?
I have the same issue. I would highly highly recommend installing all kinds of blockers on your phone and computer. I used to sin many times a day with lust, and even though I still do sometimes now it’s way less. Those blockers allow you to not be alone with temptation. One good one is called Cold Turkey. You can block website names, or even search phrases.
Thank you for this message , I needed to hear this and Repent of my Sin , Pray that Gods Spirit would Break me Over all my Sin , that God would give me a Broken and Contrite Heart and I would turn away from all my Sin , Frederick L Shingleton . And to truly Speak the Same thing with God . ❤
WOW. I used to think there was nothing I could do about sin and that Christ's sacrifice would just magically set me free from sin. Like all I had to do was just believe He died and rose for me and "I'm a son of God". I literally went as far as thinking I shouldn't even judge myself according to the flesh but I could just believe I had the righteousness of Christ. As if judging myself was almost the same thing as eating of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and just believing God's will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time. As if doing that alone would be enough. Or that was somehow the way to eat of the tree of life. I even stopped feeling condemnation or shame. Paul. This message is so empowering. We don't have to just strive to enter into the rest knowing that Christ has dome absolutely everything for us on our behalf on the cross . That He alone in us is our hope of glory and there's nothing we can do of our own strength. But we can strive in our flesh to help Christ grow us. If we read the Bible enough we help with our own works. If we will our flesh to do the right stuff, we can help Christ where he is weak to set us free from sin. Thank you.
Paul doesn't look too good, I pray all is well. Lord please heal him, give him a renewed strength to keep doing and working for the kingdom of God amen.
You should pray that he stops telling the lies of the devil. Paul Washer misused the Word of God at the beginning "If we say we have no sin.." (1. John). This counts for people with their mind on the flesh, not for us children of God who walk in the spirit. In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother." If you want to get free of ongoing sin you should start to life in the spirit and accept that you are a new pure creation in Jesus if you are reborn in Jesus. You can't sin and be in Jesus at the same time, if you sin you must have left Jesus before. Stop believing the lies of the devil who wants you to believe you are still (in) your flesh and you have to do what you don't want to do. Your flesh is dead (for all children of God), it has no more power over you, read Romans 8. In Romans 7 you can find out how it is to live in the flesh and at the end the way out of this mess = grace. In Romans 8 you then read that we children of God are not in the flesh anymore, we are in the spirit and we do not walk in flesh we walk in the spirit = free of the mess.

Getting right your mind is important: "6 The sinful human mind results in death, but having the mind led by the Spirit results in life and peace." The holy spirit shows us the truth, we are a new pure creation in Jesus and able to resist all temptations. We are pure, which means we do not need to bathe again, only our feet need to be cleaned so we walk in truth. We do not have to do what we don't want to do if we live according to our new creation in Jesus. Believe and trust in Jesus, his holy spirit within you and let yourself guide by the spirit so you are able to love Jesus. @@elizabethezell8749
A life without sin comes from a life lived in the spirit. I am free of ongoing sin by grace. Like it is witten in Romans 8. We children of God do not life in the flesh anymore. We children of God are alive in Jesus and walk in the spirit so we are free of ongoing sin. Paul Washer tells in this video the lies of the devil who wants you to believe you can't get free of sin. But all children of God are free of sin. Paul misued the Word of God at the beginning. In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother." We can't sin and stay in Jesus at the same time. Elsewise you would make Jesus a liar and a sinner too. If you sin you must have left Jesus before. So focus on loving Jesus. Because Jesus tells us that if you love him you will keep his commandments. That is a promise of God. We children of God are free of the power of sin and be able to resist all temptations. And to love Jesus means to do what God tells you through the holy spirit inside of you.
Pastor paul hit me with the truth . How much bible are you reading? Well ain’t that the truth. Thank you for this great reminder I rejoice because there’s the key 🔑. God bless you pastor and keep up the great work
Pray for me if you could For gluttony, sloth, pride and greed I am a sinner and I need help. I have been a prisoner by my own desires and want to be set free, give me strength Lord.
Paul Washer is good. I don't think he's for those who aren't truly desiring Christ and to do better through the will of God. I have alot of work that needs done and I'm praying God is refining me as a diamond in the rough. I normally come on RUclips to look at sermon videos to help me understand the Bible.
I've backslide and stopped attending the church. I though it was okay. During that time I've committed atrocious sins and now seeing how my pride invited the devil to tempt me to succumb to sin again and again.
I am now repenting from all the things I've done and I've been praying for God's guidance and mercy towards me. This message opens my eyes to all the things I refused to see back then.
I know I may be stranger to all of you but I would like to ask for prayers from each of you. Thank you
I pray that God will save you and help you overcome temptation
I'm praying for you. You can cry out to Jesus, right where you are. Repent and ask Jesus to lead you to the right church. He's faithful to hear your cries. May God bless you with the grace to be reconciled to Christ, right away. He loves you more than you could ever understand. Be encouraged 🕊️✝️🙏🏽

Listening to Paul Washer is like a long cold drink on a hot day. He has a heart after God.
i wonder if he keeps Holy the 7th day Sabbath. if not, he's sinning and promoting sin, sadly.

2 - the Sabbath is no more 'jewish' than the other 9 Commandments.

@@tony1685 my friend the Jews of Abraham turned into a religion there was always the bloodline hence is why we had Jesus through David, they understood what animal sacrifices men it was never about keeping the law but for being righteous through Christ the sacrificial lamb that has yet to come Abraham knew who the Lord was! The Lord is whom talk to Abraham and talk to Moses talk to can talk to Adam and Eve in Garden. The Gospel of Jesus Christ has not changed since the Garden of Eden symbolically we are to take of the tree of Life Jesus Christ. Jesus gave us two great commandments that hang all the law of the prophets which in all honesty there is a little bit more responsibility than the Mosaic law because it has to do with living a moral life not that of religious one friend.. John the Baptist was calling out to all and especially those vipers that ended up coming in, they knew they had done wrong they knew they needed repentance because they were charging people for scriptures they were tithing or they were oppressing the system they were Romans of seeking baptism because they understood what was going on to some degree that they needed God's forgiveness it has never changed since the Garden of Eden. Through Christ we can live a righteous life he freed us from the bondage of sin 2000 years ago and now we are to walk accordingly not in sin! Sacrifice on the cross allowed us to be freed from the bondage of sin it does not involve practicing mosaic laws it involves following Jesus Christ and what he said in the 4 Gospel friend.
@@tony1685 The ten commandments that were given unto Moses was to teach the Israelites that they were in need of a savior and that none of them could follow it to a t unlike Jesus Christ on cross ❤️ only through Jesus are we righteous in the eyes of God not by following the Mosaic Law that Jesus fulfilled the law that's why we follow Him!

@@thomascoffin5267yes for sure but not enough Christian people men and women and the olde the youggins speak about what we ought. Not what we should. But what we get to do. And although it's as Paul washer Is composing all the parts of a TV and selling it to us in good format I know it's convenient and practically good that a human know precisely how a TV should become by one single human. Its effectiveness is low. But millions of people who do their job and remember other events in life more than the specific pieces of hundreds in a TV is more meaning fully filled.

Blessed is the man whose sins are covered, Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. Colossians 2:13. He has forgiven us ALL trespasses. Second Corinthians 5:21. For He who knew no sin, Jesus, became sin for us, so that we might be made the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Him.

I've been a Christian for several years and every time I get more involved in the Word of God or the Church, the devil attacks. Christianity is harder than atheism by a long shot but the rewards of eternity in Christ will be well worth it
Well said 👍🏻👍🏻
I remember, that some orthodox monks Once said: there is no suffering, other than to not know God.
Very true. When you stand with The Messiah in all efforts to walk His way, the spiritual attacks can be relentless until you learn how to intercede with warfare prayers. We need to remember that if satan isn't attacking us, we are doing his work just fine. When he is attacking us, we know we are a threat to his kingdom and he wishes to tear that down. We gotta stand firm, even at the cost of these earthly bodies.
2 Corinthians 5: 6-8
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 7 (for we walk by faith, not by sight:) 8 we are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

@@reynaldoperez7285God. And there's no evidence that Cain was saved, so he would have been dead in sins. Seth, however, was a child of God.
Ironic what you said regarding sin, that hopefully it will be a lot less as we grow. As I've grown, I am becoming more and more aware how much I sin and how helpless and hopeless I am without Christ. I think the most important thing I've learned over the years, is that walking in the Spirit is not learning to be 'self sufficient', but becoming completely dependent on the Holy Spirit. like a child who is truly dependent on their parents, completely trusting.
Very well put!!!! Same!!!
You become more aware of sin as you grow but at the same time you also sin less. Strange how that works.
More aware of sin but hopefully quicker to repent and obey.
That is scary. You have been sinning all this time without awareness of it? Did you not realize that you didn't have the fruit of the Holy Spirit?
@@UserBR-v6l All of us have sin for which we are not aware. Our own pride blinds us to it. As we walk with Christ the truth of the spirit works in us. Some things might be obvious but some are well hidden. Remember God's standards are not our own standards. Remember the words of Jesus. Matthew 5:28 "But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." Many of us have unforgiveness. Many of us do not love enough other people; particularly our enemies. Perhaps you are far advanced and forgotten the difficulties of contesting with your flesh. Perhaps like most if not all of us; some of your own sin is yet hidden. Only God knows. I wish you well.
Look to everyone who struggles with sin, just know that I have fallen further then almost all christians in my life, so far down I fell to fentanyl about a year ago. So remember lust, pride, addictions, hate, lies, porn and every sin no matter how great or small Jesus can forgive. I have turned my life back to Jesus and I feel he has forgiven me for my many sins, I have a freedom in Jesus that only comes from sincerely completely turning back to God. As soon as I repented (really repented) I felt that I was sanctified and set free again and immediately god convicted me on some wrongs I needed to right. The holy spirit of God and Jesus is so wonderful in his grace, to forgive our sins and remember them no more.
peace from canada,,Jesus reigns
Love to see confession and repentance. Something we (I myself) have lost the art of consistent practice. We also need to practice amongst a local community. Praise to Jesus brother. See you in the Kingdom!
Bless you in Jesus name -Greetings from FlockofChrist
@@FlockofChristos thanks
@@FlockofChristos Bless you too.
@@JustHuman87 Amen GOd is great. I find my conscience is clearer when I confess my sins to my fellow man and especially to God. I have my many faults, (past addictions, lust pride etc) however apologising is one gift God gave me and for some its refreshing. THanks for your encouragement.
Funny thing is in scripture Jesus seems to say in parables those who "beat their breast and realise and admit their sins" are better then those who sin less and act like they have no sin.
what an amazing savior we have, I could brag about him all day and I try to, unfortunately so many despise or reject God including family. To me Jesus is more real than my own breath.
see you around online or in paradise. Peace from Canada.
1.Get in the Word

Add having a relationship with him too
Was cain totally depraved? what about seth?
Why did god tell cain that he should do good?
Finding that church is eluding me.
@trinitywright7122
God has always been in the business of salvation.
All that ever lived and were saved. were saved by faith, BY HIS GRACE.
From, Adam to the last man that would ever believe.
No man has ever accomplished the perfection and sinlessness of the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
WE HAVE ALL FALLEN SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD.
WE ARE LIVING IN THE DAY OF SALVATION, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEART.
TODAY IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE THE FREE GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES.
MY FRIEND, IF YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON, YOU ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
IF YOU ARE A RELIGIOUS PERSON, YOU ARE NOT RELIGIOUS ENOUGH.
IF YOU ARE A FAITHFUL PERSON, YOU ARE NOT FAITHFUL ENOUGH.
IF YOU ARE A DEDICATED PERSON, YOU ARE NOT DEDICATED ENOUGH.
IF YOU ARE A COMMITTED PERSON, YOU ARE NOT COMMITTED ENOUGH.
IF YOU STOP SINNING, YOU HAVEN'T
STOP SINNING ENOUGH.
IF YOU ARE RIGHTEOUS MAN, YOU ARE NOT RIGHTEOUS ENOUGH.
DO I HAVE TO CONTINUE?
YOU ALSO HAVE FALLEN SHORT, AND ARE IN NEED OF A SAVIOR.
THE JEWS THAT WERE BLIND CRUCIFIED HIM, THE JEWS THAT COULD SEE WORSHIP HIM, EVERY RELIGION ON EARTH HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH HIM RATHER THEY ACCEPT HIM OR REJECT HIM.
JESUS HIMSELF, ASKED THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION EVER.
WHOM DO YOU SAY THAT I AM?
HE DID ALL THE THINGS THAT ONLY GOD CAN DO, AND HE DID THEM IN THE FLESH.
HE SAID IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME BELIEVE THE WORKS THAT I DO.
I BELIEVE IN JESUS THE SON OF GOD,
WHO IS GOD HIMSELF IN THE FLESH.
THE TRIUNE GOD OF ISREAL, (THE TRINITY) THE GOD OF ABRAHAM ISSAC AND JACOB.
THERE IS NO OTHER WAY,
WITHOUT THE RESURRECTION OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST THERE IS NO HOPE OF BEING RESURRECTED.
THERE IS NO HOPE OF ANY RESURRECTION, APART FROM JESUS.
King James Bible
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
MY FRIEND THIS IS THE REQUIREMENT FOR ETERNAL LIFE.
29The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. 30He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
31(They replied, “(BELIEVE) IN THE LORD JESUS, AND YOU WILL BE SAVED)
you and your household.” 32Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. 33At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized. 34The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; HE WAS FILLED WITH JOY BECAUSE HE HAD COME TO( BELIEVE ) IN GOD -he and his whole household.
WOW, THE DISCIPLES PREACHED JESUS, AND THEY CAME TO BELIEVE IN GOD.
IN JOHN 6 IT SAYS.
28Then they asked him, “What must we do to be doing the works of God ”
29JESUS ANSWERED, “THE WORK OF GOD IS THIS: TO BELIEVE IN THE ONE HE HAS SENT.”
JESUS IS THE ONE GOD HAS SENT.
JESUS IS THE SAVIOR, THE MESSIAH, THAT THE JEWS WAITED FOR BUT DIDN'T RECOGNIZE HIM WHEN HE CAME.
New King James Version
and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, BECAUSE YOU DID NOT (KNOW) THE TIME OF YOUR VISITATION.”
CONSEQUENCES FOR NOT RECOGNIZING
JESUS CHRIST.
King James Bible
He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
AT THIS MOMENT THE JEWS AND MUSLIMS ARE WORKING ON THEIR OWN
RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH, BECAUSE TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS COMES BY FAITH.
BELIEVE IN THE LORD JESUS AND YOU
WILL BE SAVED.
New International Version
Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
THE BIBLE CLEARLY SAYS. ( THAT IF RIGHTEOUSNESS CAME BY THE LAW
GOD WOULD HAVE GAVE US A LAW
WHEREBY WE COULD GET SAVED BY. )
New International Version galatians 3;21
Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! (FOR IF A LAW HAD BEEN GIVEN THAT COULD IMPART LIFE, THEN RIGHTEOUSNESS WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE COME BY THE LAW.
This verse clearly say that God never gave us a law, that could save us if we keep it, and that there is no law that was given for us to be saved by.
So if we are not saved by the law then how are we saved? Answer by grace through faith in Jesus.
Everyone trying to be good enough to be saved is delusional, Jesus is the only way to receive salvation.
After you have believe the gospel and are saved, then you can live as godly as you want but not to get saved, but because you are saved.
New International Version
I do not set aside the grace of God, (FOR IF RIGHTEOUSNESS COULD BE GAINED THROUGH THE LAW, ) CHRIST DIED FOR NOTHING!”
WELL YOU ONLY HAVE ONE CHOICE.
BELIEVE, IN JESUS CHRIST, BELIEVE IN THE DEATH BURRIAL AND RESURRECTION, AND BE SAVED.
WHEN YOU ARE SAVED, GOD EQUIPS YOU TO LIVE OUT A GODLY LIFE.
YOU WILL BEAR FRIUT.
BUT BE ⚠️ WARNED. JUDE 1:4
New Living Translation
I say this because some ungodly people have wormed their way into your churches, saying that God’s marvelous grace allows us to live immoral lives. The condemnation of such people was recorded long ago, for they have denied our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
If you say that a man can lose salvation, you are saying salvation does not belong to the LORD.
Also, if you have time...volunteer and serve God
Thankful to be a truck driver. I listen to the full bible every month on my dwell app and also read my physical bible daily. And constant prayer. What hes saying is true!! Iv never been this strong. Praise God for His word
The letter cannot convict,we need to preach,as Christ did to nicodemus, john3vto16,unless we are born again we cannot see the kingdom of God,we need to be BAPTISED in water and in the Holy SPIRIT to enter the kingdom,so that the Holy SPIRIT becomes the teacher.God is SPIRIT and we can only worship him in SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.THERE ARE 3 THAT BEAR WITNESS THE BLOOD THE WATER AND THE SPIRIT, AND THESE 3 BEAR WITNESS IN AGREEMENT MATHEW 23V1TO16,THIS SETS US FREE,FROM MOSES SEAT OF AUTHORITY INTO CHRIST as our teacher,and Leader.
What a great opportunity to hear His Word. We’re told to “set you mind on things above not on earthly things. Your life is hidden with Christ in God, so that when Christ who is our life appears we shall also appear with Him in glory.
Wow, what a promise!
"16 hours a day behind enemy lines" is the most brilliant comment on the world and the effects of sin I have ever heard. A knew way for me to think. Thank you Paul.
Was cain totally depraved? what about seth?
Why did god tell cain that he should do good?
@@reynaldoperez7285why do you keep posting this reply to comments, it’s been some time, but were you truly seeking truth, or poking around for conflict?
'Temptation is a counterfeit of the goodness of God.' Thank you, Paul.
Paul is one of very few men left who unashamedly, boldly preach sound, Biblical doctrine. His messages are strengthening, at times convicting, refreshing and encouraging.
His sermons have blessed me as well. He preaches the word of God in its raw truth no matter how much it hurts.
Sadly Paul Washer lies in this video at the beginning. We children of GOd are free of ongoing sin if we live according to our new nature in the spirit.
Paul Washer misused the Word of God at the beginning "If we say we have no sin.." (1. John).
This counts for people with their mind on the flesh, not for us children of God who walk in the spirit. In 1. John 3, 9 we read we children of God can't sin:
"9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."
If you want to get free of ongoing sin you should start to live in the spirit and accept that you are a new pure creation in Jesus if you are reborn in Jesus. You can't sin and be in Jesus at the same time, if you sin you must have left Jesus before.
Love Jesus and you will keep his commandments ( John 14, 15). And to love Jesus means to listen to God and to do what he tells you (through the holy spirit within you).
I do not sin if I stay in Jesus.
It happened that I left Jesus and with that also my true me, and then I sinned again but God showed me right away the way back through the holy spirit.
I do not have ongoing sin like my old gone me. It is like ROmans 8 says I let myseolf and my mind guide by the holy sppirit and not like my old from the flesh.
In Romans 7 Paul says how it is to live in the flesh, that you do what you don't want to do and don't do what you want to do. And then at the end of Romans 7 he tells us that there is a way out = Grace.
In Romans 8 he then tells us that we chldren of God are free of that mess of doing what we don't want because we live in the spirit. At that is not just theroy it is life I experienced and experience.
I just need to stay in Jesus, in my true self.
1. Jon 3, 4 - 6:
"4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him."
Who stays in Jesus can not sin verse 6.
I, we children of God, do not fight against flesh, we fight against spirits. And some spirits try to make us guide by the felsh again. By distracting us and keep us busy.
So it can happen, that I also have my mind on fleshly things and rarely do something I shouldn't do but it ends very quickly. It is no ongoing sin. And the Word of God says god can make us walk flawless. So it is possible that my rarely becomes never while I walk on earth.
I am new in Jesus, from God reborn in Jesus. My old nature is dead, now I got a pure nature from God. As long as I stay in the love of Jesus I am my true self, a child of God who can't sin = 1. John 3, 9: "9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."
So do not believe the false words of Paul Washer. I don't believe him because I know and live the truth:
1. John 4, 4: "4 Little children, you are of God and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He Who lives in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world."
@@rkip123456
Amen! 🙏
@michaelkindgottes stop deceiving people. to tell a Christian they can meet the perfection of Jesus by not sinning is to undermine the beautiful role of Christ. through His righteousness are we made righteous. you cant go a day without sinning, part of submitting yourself to Christ is realizing that you are helplessly bound by your entire being to sin, and require salvation from it. if every born-again Christian could manage complete sinlessness by God's grace, That would be the work of Christ. no sacrifice needed. I pray you turn from this thinking and return to Christ. for those of you reading this, read your Word and pray for discernment with this if this troubles you. God bless
This is solid gold. As one who fell into sin just 2 nights ago after avoiding that sin for nearly a year; I can confirm a few things. First I thought I was stronger than I was and when I sinned I was surprised that I had fallen into it. This was a pride issue and also one of overconfidence. Second I allowed the temptation to go on far longer than I should have. If I had gone right to Jesus and prayed for strength I know he would have given it. The truth is that I allowed the temptation to go on too long because even the temptation had started to become pleasurable in a way. To look at the fruit and consider it too long. Soon I had bitten into it and it was too late to avoid the fall. So please be warned and go to Jesus quickly. Take your thoughts captive and bring them to Jesus for help. Always better to obey God than to fall and need to repent. Yet also always better to repent and to do it quickly than to run from God. Hope this helps somebody. The only good that came out of this was being reminded well of God's grace and the humility it added to me.
I appreciate this...feels like pastor Paul is speaking to me one on one like a dad. Thank you...I remember when I was in sin before.. I felt helpless I couldn't get out, I doubted if God was even true. But I was in there bcz I didn't meditate on God's word, I flirted with the snake instead of running away from it, even had opportunities to kill the sin but I kept coming back. I was so broken in sin that I wanted to die bcz I can't stop. But God saved me, He opened my eyes, He helped me... it was a long road to recovery and painful as it is... I needed that discipline of my loving Father so I can be united with Him. He is unbelievably patient and merciful to me. 5 years passed and I have never felt so much joy, contentment and peace. God fills my heart with everything I used to crave for. He is my full satisfaction. HE IS MY LORD. 🥹

It drove me to drinking, smoking, murmuring, things I know I was delivered from. Every morning I read my Bible until the tragedy struck. I’m nothing without Jesus Christ when I missed 39 days without waking up with my eyes on Christ I could feel it, things felt wrong. I Thank God for this message. Thank You For Sharing.
My friend, nothing I can write can adequately soothe such a blow, instead Ill remind of the promises of His Holy word.
In heaven you will be given new bodies, free of pain, he will wipe every tear from your eye, he will cast Satan into lake fire and you'll never be tormented with his lies ever again, you'll never be alone again as you'll be in the company of every single Christian who ever lived! Friends, the family members you lost here on earth, the people in the Bible and especially our Lord Himself! You'll dwell in a land of beauty beyond your wildest imagination! God's promise is perfect and all these things you will have and more! Yes, you suffered a temporary loss today, but tomorrow a glorious eternity waits. Don't give up my friend, God is far from done! He loves you more than you know. Peace.

Thank you I loved that , I got saved Aug 13 1978 I have never been the same , when I do something wrong I confess it and ask for forgiveness. I’m 86 today but the devil don’t leave us alone just because we are old. Keep in the word and pray often.
Good preaching! Sound teaching! Sinning is deliberate! We chose to do it! Sin is a result of willingness to disobey God, despise his authority and bring to nothing his governance over us. I must chose to obey God!
Was cain totally depraved? what about seth?
Why did god tell cain that he should do good?
Iv publicly given my life to Jesus, and asked Him to be Lord over my life..😢😢However, im struggling with anger and bitterness especially now, when i just found out that my husband is cheating on me😢Please help me break free from anger
Make sure you get really intimate with God, he will give you instructions. Pay attention keep your ears and eyes open
I know how you feel and I’m having similar anger issues as a result. Funny he went don’t think of anger as a sin and yet it is. I pray He will give us both freedom from our anger etc. God bless you
You have valid reason to feel anger. Do not deny it. Turn to Christ with it. It is okay to feel and be angry. It is not okay what happened. Just do not act on the anger in wrath, slander or sin and do not go to bed on the anger. Counselling with your husband is a good idea. I am so sorry that you are going through this kind of sin. 💜🙏
I pray for you, sister.I know life is hard.stay strong and keep your focus on Christ
Ephesians 4:26-27 NKJV
"Be angry, and do not sin": do not let the sun go down on your wrath, [27] nor give place to the devil."
you have a right to be angry about what happened to you but Gods word tells us to not sin because of it, I think that also means to forgive but you can still feel the feelings you have right now.
Pray for God provide food for family that they dont have nothing to eat today tomorrow and this month thank you God for feed American kids and families with your divine provision in their tables in Jesus name amen
"If people don't understand the Godness of God, they cannot recognize the sinfulness of sin." (Paraphrase of R C Sproul).
And vice versa, my sister.
I recently quit smoking weed and have been having trouble sleeping ever since. Every night I get tempted to smoke again so I can sleep.. thank you Paul for another amazing video! Needed this today!
I remember when going to church was such a chore. One that I forced myself to go to out of fear and a sense of duty. Now I’m saved, It’s a necessity to be in the fellowship of other Christians and it’s 1 part of a source of joy and strength.
I needed this alot😞,,i pray not to fall into temptation again in Jesus name🙏
If you belong to Jesus God will give you the strength to endure and overcome every temptation.
1 CORINTHIANS 10, 13 "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."
And if you want to get rid of ongoing sin start to believe you are a new pure creation in Jesus in case you belong to Jesus. And then start to walk in the spirit like God tells us through his word. In Jesus we do not sin. In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin:
"9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother."
Jesus also sais if you love him you will keep his commandments (John 14, 15). It is a promise of God.
And to love Jesus means to do what God tells you through the holy spirit. Love expresses itself in good works for the one you love. You only truly believe in Jesus if you love Jesus.
Faith is dead without works like the body is dead without the spirit.
Pray that God would fill you with the Holy Spirit and change you.
"Whatever you ask in My name, I will do it so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it." -John 14:13-14
Brothers. Some of us might need to listen to this daily!
I had the same thought! We need to keep the things Paul Washer say fresh on our minds so we're less likely to sin.
@@carolebrelo7234 Agreed, yet to his point, a copious amount of the Bible would be the better preference.
Prioritize reading the Bible over youtube videos. I have been reading my Bible every morning and every evening for the last year and a half. It has changed my life. The change will not happen over night, but you will grow closer to God as you study His word.
Thank you brother Paul. Coming from a newborn babe in Christ I thank the Lord for your ministry and how he works through you to reach a retched generation. God bless you

Wow God really knows.. have been struggling about this sin and temptations and this video ahowed up.. Thank you Lord Jesus. Thank you for using Pastor Paul's video to get to me.
I'm here after Dr. Lawson... heart rending.
Let us examine our own hearts in light of such a sobering fall, while we pray for Brother Lawson's full repentance and restoration, and for all of those affected by his sin.
1 Corinthians 10:12
Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
Romans 14:4
Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
My testimony:
I realized one of the painful and testing moments of every believer is that when you are struggling with sexual sin or sin in general, it is truly committing to leave all that behind and surrender to God. It is the hardest thing I've done because I knew my struggles were real, and it was not an immediate answer to my prayers. It was a process of transformation I had to go through by doing everything so mandane but extremely profound at the end. Spending time with the Lord, praying, repenting, reading the Scripture, and waiting on Him was my deliverance from sinfulness. I recognize it is a lifelong habit and a new way of living if I honor Jesus. I have tasted His goodness, and the Holy Spirit guides my way.
I am not sinless but am very alert to encroaching temptation and its destruction. Through my obedience and trust, God sustains me with profound peace in my life, which I never felt before. Hope you experience the same and start your journey of obedience today. Blessings ❤
Thank you so much dear Pastor. May God bless you more.
I am single and I Ve been exposed to some unholy images and videos. Since yesterday, I have beem passing through some temptation of sexual immorality and mastubation. I deeply know in my heart that this kind of life is against God and myself. After praying this afternoon, I encountered your sermons for the first time.
I am so grateful for God for the freedom I received from this speech.
I truly believe we suffer as Christians we have victory. We also have defeat. Everything is pointed back to what Jesus Christ did on the cross dying for our sins. I pray that we all continue in the faith leaning after God‘s mercy direction walking after the spirit now giving into the flesh brothers and sisters stay strong seeking the Lord for guidance. I see so much pain when I read comments, I myself struggle ooo wretched man that I am
Jesus has got you bro, trust in Him NOT in yourself, you can’t finish in the flesh what was begun in the spirit. Trust in him , read His word, have faith avoid sexual immorality love and forgive people, you’ll do well cause your going to be holding up His works not your own like those who will hear the words I don’t know you. I love ya and I hope you have an amazing week, we have an amazing saviour!
Incredible. Such gentleness coupled with great convicting scriptures and talking points. Thank you brother Paul for your God lead insight and references.
I struggle with sexual sin and I hardly ever flee. God’s been strengthening me to flee more often so I know the Holy Spirit is working in me. I like the point you made about Christians finding an escape route or making sure I’m not alone too often to indulge in sinful acts.
Such great reminders for a struggling and tired soul. Your gentleness in the start of the video explaining that even though I’m a mess of a human being, God wants me to seek Him out for help in this lengthy battle with sin.
Please Lord God, humble me so that I only speak your Truth. For it is the only thing that brings joy in my life.
Did you actually commit sin?
I struggle with fears and feelings that are ungodly.
Seek out Godly friends for Biblical counsel. Speak to your pastor. That what they're there for, to shepherd you. You must also be spending time with God. Cry out to Him. Ask Him for strength. Our enemy wants us to think we're helpless, but WE ARE NOT.
Ask GOD to help you..please pray and always thank HIM..
Amen to all the 5 parts of this video
God allowed me to hear this first thing in the morning for a reason, what an amazing God
Please pray for me someone. Im struggling deep with physical pain. Pray that the doctor can diagnose me accurately so i could get treated quickly. Dealing with stomach pain for the last few months. 😢 Also dealing with deep rooted sin issues. I need a soul rival.
The prayers of strangers are not somehow more effective than your own.
Praying. It sounds terrible. I pray that everything will be accurate and that you will be healed.
This gentleman is good and real. Thank you Paul Washer for the wisdom and knowledge in that teaching on how to limit sin in the life of a follower of Christ who has been born again.
He is absolutely correct. In my young men's ministry that I started a few months ago, I still held on to some sins from my previous life. And it about unraveled the young men's group. However, when I started to have accountability partners, confessing my sin both to God and to those around me, the ministry has gotten deeper and I just overall feel a lot better.
That sin was in fact pornographic material and watching horrible movies. And gluttony. I still battle every day, but I know now that I have God, His Word, and brothers by my side every step of the way. Praise God!
I was at a mens conference where Albert Tate spoke. He used this illustration of a guy who had a large pet snake that he let have free roam around his house. This snake would lay in his bed with him too. The snake started laying straight out and did this repeatedly. So the guy called his vet and the vet stated 'you need to get away from the snake, its sizing itself up to you to try to eat you". The point being, dont lay down with something that is trying to kill you.
Forgive me lord I have bad mouth and talk bad about people and have pride in my life forgive me Jesus.
I have the same problems. Praise God that we have a Savior who can help us and the Holy Spirit to sanctify us!
Your profession need not be public. It should be between you and God.
0:50 it’s not that they’re sinless but that when they see sin in their lives they recognize it, are sorrowful/regretful, take responsibility for it, confess it, and turn from it
Thank you. I feel like you made this video for me. The journey to being "born again" is a difficult. But, after we have received the holy spirit it's really soul crushing to deal with the disappointment when we return to old sins. I feel I am winning the battle every day... but the battle never ends
Thanks so much Brother Washer for your teaching on sin. We Believers truly need to read, hear and do what is in the Bible!!🖐🏽
Thank you, Paul
The best advice on dealing with ongoing sin... Thank you!
I must say this is the best pastor I've heard that speaks truthfully.. Amen
What i found to be the most effective is praying instantly when i feel temptation
Thank you dear pastor Paul.
This brought heavy conviction
I like Paul’s sincerity in his teaching
I agree with everything Paul said except for the last minute, that's very good for a sermon to keep my attention on God that long.
About a silly evangelist? 😅
Thanks Paul. This is so prescious... God bless him.
Please pray that a miracle victory over habitual sin and thàt I be born again and do whatever I need to do to receive eternal life
Wow absolutely beautiful message from God
This message was right on time for me! Thank you, Lord 🙌🏾🙌🏾

14:09 this is what almost always makes me fall to sin. To believe God cannot meet my needs.
I'm gonna save this for when i feel tempted
Thank you Paul Washer for giving us this testimony and strength to fight evil.
- I feel like I should be more advanced in the faith and should not sin- but that I think is something I can never do - so I March on knowing that and pray for forgiveness - I just lost a sister in Christ that passed away that I could confess with - now praying for a new sister to confess with - Jesus is LORD
Praise God thank you for this message. The book of James helped me tremendously early in my conversion :)!
In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin:
"9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother."
Time for you to see the truth. Paul washer is a liar. We children of God are free of the power of sin and are able to resist all temptations. But for that we need to live in the spirit by grace. Like it is written in Romans 8.
Stop believing the lies of the devil who wants you to believe you are still (in) your flesh and you have to do what you don't want to do (ongoing sin).
Your flesh is dead (for all children of God), it has no more power over you.
In Romans 7 you can find out how it is to live in the flesh and at the end the way out of this mess = grace.
In Romans 8 you then read that we children of God are not in the flesh anymore, we are in the spirit and we do not walk in flesh we walk in the spirit = free of the mess.
But the devil wants your mind on the flesh so you walk in the flesh again so you do what you don't want to do again. And God wants you to lead your mind by the spirit. Getting right your mind is important:
"6 The sinful human mind results in death, but having the mind led by the Spirit results in life and peace."
The holy spirit shows us the truth, we are a new pure creation in Jesus and able to resist all temptations. We do not have to do what we don't want to do if we live according to our new creation in Jesus. Believe and trust in Jesus, his holy spirit within you and let yourself guide by the spirit so you are able to love Jesus.
And to love Jesus means to do what God tells you trough his holy spirit.
If you love Jesus you will keep his commandments (John 14, 15). That is truth and a promise of God.
7:55 is how I've always read the Bible ever since I learnt the discipline of reading it: thank you Brother Paul for confirming how I should continue in this practice and how to apply its teachings
hence why we need faith in Christ, cuz his precious blood cleanses us from sin.
Strengthening my spirit man by fasting and praying is currently one of my difficulties. I've noticed that tithing and offerings makes our walk stronger.
Yes Sir,the goodness of God !So real .Spending time with God and prayer 💪💪💪
Thank you Pastor Washer. Without a doubt the most thorough and yet succinct message I've heard on this subject.
Thanks brother Paul for the reminder on how to be victorious over sin! A discipline that I'm trying to apply more and more each day. God give your church the strength to kill temptations for your Glory.
Amen sir, thank you so much for these words. I needed to hear this, and I may need to hear it again. God bless you and those that see this. Temptation and sin truly do brong death. I find myself so oftem falling for the Satans lies and the lies of others. I find myself giving into the temptation to combat evil but with what is more evil. I hate sin so much. God save us and forgive us. Amen
Thank you for posting this.
Thankyou so much Pastor.
One of my favorite contemporary theologians. Very graced to get to hear him preach at G3 this September.
Where is the conference this year?
@@Hevel378
It was in Atlanta.
@@patrickc3419 thank you was just wondering, I can’t believe I missed it!
@@Hevel378
Same city; 2025! Keep tabs on it via G3’s website.
Got to hear him, Voddie Baucham, Steve Lawson, Ken Ham, and got to hear and personally meet Justin Peters, James White, James Coates, Emilio Ramos, Virgil Walker, & Darrell Harrison.

It was $39 per adult. I paid and attended myself. And my wife, and our two children.
I noticed, prior to responding to you just now, that I typed “GC”, rather than “G3”. I meant to type G3. It was at the Georgia International Convention Center, in Atlanta, not at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles.
This is excellent teaching.
This was good. I’m thankful to the Lord for sound teaching. ❤
Thank you i learned so much I will start again my new testament Bible reading
what brother Paul Washer is saying is absolutely right. Proverbs 23:7 Jesus said whatsoever a man thinketh so is he. We are not even supposed to entertain sinful thoughts in our mind. Alot of people think that sin has to do with just committing the actual act if sin but its deeper than this we are not to even entertain sinful thoughts in our mind. thoughts such as lust, perverted thoughts, sexual immoral thoughts, twisted thoughts and more. keep your mind pure ! ask the Lord Jesus Christ to help you purify your mind and run from thoughts of sin. Also, the purification of the mind allows us to be more receptive to hearing the voice of God and helps us to live a more fearless life also lighter on our feet because were not weighed down by the entertainment of sinful thoughts.
Thank you Jesus. I really needed to hear this. It was just what I was going through. Glory be to God 😔👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you, Brother Paul. I’m making an effort to read my Bible more, reading it right now even, seeing more about how needed it is. God’s been telling me this for a long time, and yet I wonder why I struggle so much.
Thank you brother Washer
After being born again, I've memorized a very large chunk of the gospel. But I've been struggling with lust for years. And every time I give in to lust. I feel like less than garbage.
I struggle with it too. Watch out you don't feel like the victim. Also recognize you can't fix it without God. And like was said in the video; it's a counterfeit. God has the real deal. I promise you he has got something better, something lovely even. What also helps is praying in those moments. And flee from it. Stay strong brother!!
Same, friend. His grace is sufficient. We gotta lean in to grace. Easier said than done. We often think we’re beyond repair. But God is good, and we gotta trust that He began a good work in us. With us it’s impossible. Nothing is impossible for Him. Keep on pressing on my brother.
Yes I agree. I've struggled with the same sin of lust for many years myself and have been a Christian for years. I also am broken over the fact that I have struggled for so long. Only Christ can completely deliver us from this terrible sin. God bless you all.
"knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [Him] in order that the body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin. … But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, … Likewise count yourselves also to be truly dead to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts." (Rom 6:6,8,11-12)
You ARE supernaturally crucified WITH HIM, if you're truly regenerated, but you really have to COUNT yourself a dead man, dead to sin, and you WILL, THROUGH HIM, have power over your lusts! We don't need to serve it anymore, you must understand this! HE provided it all, it IS finished. Waiting for Him to somehow change you into someone who easily resists, WON'T HAPPEN! Read Romans Chapters 6, 7 & 8 and try to grasp your spiritual situation, pray over it, ask the Lord to explain it to you! HE WILL!
And whenever you're tempted in your thoughts, when certain awful ideas come into your mind, RUN TO HIM IMMEDIATELY, thank Him, that your're crucified WITH HIM, and ask HIM to take those thoughts away! And HE WILL! Guaranteed! The only relevant questions here are: Do you REALLY know HIM and do you REALLY want this?
I have the same issue. I would highly highly recommend installing all kinds of blockers on your phone and computer. I used to sin many times a day with lust, and even though I still do sometimes now it’s way less. Those blockers allow you to not be alone with temptation. One good one is called Cold Turkey. You can block website names, or even search phrases.
Thank you so much 😁😁😁👍👍👍 God for this message 💕
Thank you for this message , I needed to hear this and Repent of my Sin , Pray that Gods Spirit would Break me Over all my Sin , that God would give me a Broken and Contrite Heart and I would turn away from all my Sin , Frederick L Shingleton . And to truly Speak the Same thing with God . ❤
Amen thank you for the guidance brother
Wow, brother Paul. This was so eye opening to me. Thank you for allowing the Lord work through you by sharing this. Blessings to you and your family.
WOW. I used to think there was nothing I could do about sin and that Christ's sacrifice would just magically set me free from sin. Like all I had to do was just believe He died and rose for me and "I'm a son of God". I literally went as far as thinking I shouldn't even judge myself according to the flesh but I could just believe I had the righteousness of Christ. As if judging myself was almost the same thing as eating of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and just believing God's will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time. As if doing that alone would be enough. Or that was somehow the way to eat of the tree of life. I even stopped feeling condemnation or shame. Paul. This message is so empowering. We don't have to just strive to enter into the rest knowing that Christ has dome absolutely everything for us on our behalf on the cross . That He alone in us is our hope of glory and there's nothing we can do of our own strength. But we can strive in our flesh to help Christ grow us. If we read the Bible enough we help with our own works. If we will our flesh to do the right stuff, we can help Christ where he is weak to set us free from sin. Thank you.
Take fast hold of instruction keep her and let it her not go for it is your life 💕🙏
Thank you for this word. Timely & from above.
Paul doesn't look too good, I pray all is well. Lord please heal him, give him a renewed strength to keep doing and working for the kingdom of God amen.
He recently had heart surgery and is in recovery at the moment.. I was thinking the same thing in this video. Praying for him and his family.
@@beefandblueberries Thank you so much for sharing the details. I too will be praying for him 🤗🙏🙏🙏
You should pray that he stops telling the lies of the devil.
Paul Washer misused the Word of God at the beginning "If we say we have no sin.." (1. John).
This counts for people with their mind on the flesh, not for us children of God who walk in the spirit. In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin:
"9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother."
If you want to get free of ongoing sin you should start to life in the spirit and accept that you are a new pure creation in Jesus if you are reborn in Jesus. You can't sin and be in Jesus at the same time, if you sin you must have left Jesus before.
Stop believing the lies of the devil who wants you to believe you are still (in) your flesh and you have to do what you don't want to do. Your flesh is dead (for all children of God), it has no more power over you, read Romans 8. In Romans 7 you can find out how it is to live in the flesh and at the end the way out of this mess = grace.
In Romans 8 you then read that we children of God are not in the flesh anymore, we are in the spirit and we do not walk in flesh we walk in the spirit = free of the mess.
But the devil wants your mind on the flesh so you walk in the flesh again so you do what you don't want to do again. And God wants you to lead your mind by the spirit. Getting right your mind is important:
"6 The sinful human mind results in death, but having the mind led by the Spirit results in life and peace."
The holy spirit shows us the truth, we are a new pure creation in Jesus and able to resist all temptations. We are pure, which means we do not need to bathe again, only our feet need to be cleaned so we walk in truth. We do not have to do what we don't want to do if we live according to our new creation in Jesus. Believe and trust in Jesus, his holy spirit within you and let yourself guide by the spirit so you are able to love Jesus.

Thank you Pastor Washer.
When i was saved my body was crucified with Christ. Now my Spirit can lead my dead flesh around
Just belive that you are dead as Romans 6 says.
Fwiw, Washers words are spot on but in every photo or video there is no sign of joy. We have eternal life thru Jesus. What a reason to be joyful!
you truly cannot choose not to sin by your own will. You need the help of the holy spirit which comes from the word of God and prayer
A life without sin comes from a life lived in the spirit.
I am free of ongoing sin by grace. Like it is witten in Romans 8. We children of God do not life in the flesh anymore. We children of God are alive in Jesus and walk in the spirit so we are free of ongoing sin.
Paul Washer tells in this video the lies of the devil who wants you to believe you can't get free of sin. But all children of God are free of sin. Paul misued the Word of God at the beginning.
In 1. John 3 we read we children of God can't sin:
"9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother."
We can't sin and stay in Jesus at the same time. Elsewise you would make Jesus a liar and a sinner too. If you sin you must have left Jesus before.
So focus on loving Jesus. Because Jesus tells us that if you love him you will keep his commandments. That is a promise of God. We children of God are free of the power of sin and be able to resist all temptations.
And to love Jesus means to do what God tells you through the holy spirit inside of you.
Pastor paul hit me with the truth . How much bible are you reading? Well ain’t that the truth. Thank you for this great reminder I rejoice because there’s the key 🔑. God bless you pastor and keep up the great work
Lord have mercy on me a sinner
Spend time in the word. Change doesn’t happen overnight
Thank you for the practical way to call out sin and thanksgiving to god goodness and his perfect plan to all of us🙏🏼
Pray for me if you could
For gluttony, sloth, pride and greed
I am a sinner and I need help. I have been a prisoner by my own desires and want to be set free, give me strength Lord.
Paul Washer is good. I don't think he's for those who aren't truly desiring Christ and to do better through the will of God. I have alot of work that needs done and I'm praying God is refining me as a diamond in the rough. I normally come on RUclips to look at sermon videos to help me understand the Bible.
Wow, I'm grateful for this. Thank you!
It’s not that we become sinless, it’s that we sin less.
Hmmm🔥🔥🔥
No. You become blameless because there isn't any sin you cannot abandon.
