Stop Worshiping & Idolizing Celebrity Preachers - Paul Washer

Is it possible to love the preaching of online preachers and still be lost? We asked Paul Washer, "What would you say to someone who faithfully, regularly is listening to your sermons on the Internet, but they are not regularly and faithfully being in the Word of God and in prayer?"

I really needed to hear this. My grandfather's a preacher and I've always loved listening to different preachers but sometimes I ignore God because of this and think I'm justified because I like theology, I'm going to repent!

Matt Haney was the one who prepared the questions for the interview, you do hear me asking one question near the end. About Washer saying something to those who idolize him so they can hear it.

Thank you for being the "you" in Christ that you are. I have heard you several times and as I was listening I thanked God that young people--( all people--You know what I mean)-that He is raising up laborer's for this end-time harvest of souls such as yourself. Not flowery words..but grateful truth. Thank you..

Truth hurts that’s why some don’t like you. We love you brother Washer

After I was saved 16 years ago, I felt my zeal was pushed down by more "mature" Christians, because they would say "she will settle down" and was snubbed to some degree. I conformed, thus my heart grew dull. A year ago, I did a YouTube search and consequently found Paul Washer. His teaching has encouraged me to be zealous for Christ again. I hope even if PW fell (hope that doesn't happen), I would still be just as zealous for Christ. Thank you for keeping us in check I'll Be Honest.

God Bless you Pastor you are an inspiration

[HDell]

True, but a person can have a mean tone with you during a rebuke and it still be in love.

This is the way a true man of God and a true prophet-teacher should respond to the questions that were asked. When he says that the students were praying for his salvation, I'm reminded of the apostle Paul who said, "if the righteous are barely saved..." And what preacher who preaches against sin the way he does WOULDN"T be a little depressed? He delivers some tough messages and it's not popular these days. GBU Paul.

I love that comment he said about the students thinking he was the apostle Paul and leaving praying for his salvation. I can relate to that being a missionary. People so easily work up standards of perfection for those they look up to or wear the title of pastor, missionary, or elder. We all have a calling and are all equally fallen, and when you bear a title that the world esteems as extra holy, you feel your sin and humanness even more, at least i do. God bless you all.

Mr. Washer
Throughout the history of the scripture the words we know that are spoken by God to be the absolute truth, He has always used the least of men to do His work. He chose Moses, a murderer, He chose Elijah filled of fear and depression He chose David who was a fornicator
We must never look at
ourselves as unworthy to be chosen by God to do His work. Each man God chooses for His own purpose, is not a random choice, but God knows he is capable of doing His work
You are a blessing

I once considered the Great preachers to be better than myself. But once I saw how the person really acted I learned that they were no less a sinner than me. We are all sinners, we can not see each other more or less than what what we are. God doesn't love a preacher more than a true servant of God. God loves us all the same. That's why Jesus died for us.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

[blueskies]

Help us Jesus. And thank you God for revealing this to us and to me before it was too late.

[GameraKaiju]

What Washer was referring to was a girl that was lost & she wanted to be a missionary so bad, that she was afraid if she gave her life to the Lord & got saved, He wouldn't allow her to be a missionary, and she wanted to be a missionary more than she wanted to be saved. It was idolatry, so even good things like that, if made into idols, can keep us from coming to Christ. In no way does being a missionary save you or atone for your sins. See 1 Cor. 13:3 which could be referring to martyrdom.

I love the GODLY man Paul Washer is today. If only we had more like him to lead us away from the wickedness of the world. I admire him for trying to lead us back to the truth, WHICH IS GOD HIMSELF!

[justinekayelani]

Paul Washer has a passion for Christ.
He speaks about having a relationshop with Christ
How will we know if we dont seek and call on his name.
Falling on our face and seeking him.
Amen brother Paul too many pastors are too afraid to say these things cause people will leave. Im glad youre not scared!
Jeremiah 29:13-Matthew 6-11

i HOPE that Paul Washer Has Joy in His Life
