Who is paul david washer

I really woundnt know what to tell Matthew concerning Paul Washer and his ideals. I went to illbehonest. My first impression was that Paul is ostentatious. Nice man, clean-cut, presentable, but oh so religious, dramatic, and pretentiously moral and pious.

What gain is there in being so? Will drama move the carnal heart to receive Christ, or will it impress the man of sin to aspire to the heroism Washer is selling? There is a problem with men who feel the need to dress in a business suit and tie to win the respect of their audience.

Woe to Elijah and other prophets, those who come from the wilderness with a message from the heart and not from the head, from above and not beneath, from the realm of the alien and not from the confines of the respectable!

Woe to Jesus Christ, the Son of a poor carpenter, Who slept outdoors in His garments and washed at the river or sea! How presentable is that? If Paul Washer and well-dressed, well-mannered, polished, socially acceptable company are right, woe to the prophets and apostles despised by the respectable and dignified world that demands proper decorum.

Woe to those in prison with rags drenched in their own sweat and blood from scourgings like those Paul and Silas suffered! How shall they ever succeed to win the honor of the Philippian jailer and his house of family and servants? I should say not! Calvin was a murderer — a rabid Pharisee Saul of Tarsus to his death! Except while Saul zealously sought to serve the Law of God, Calvin zealously sought to murderously enforce his own laws to his own dogmatic, egotistic ends.

You must believe to testify of faith! And you must know Him to testify of Him. We are not going to spread the Gospel into this whole world through the cleverness of our minds, but in the power of the Holy Spirit!

He presumes that passion will win the day, but the Spirit of God is not about carnal passion. Paul Washer is a blowhard who loves himself more than the One he professes to represent. Is this man not boasting of himself? Do not those who speak loudest possess less? Can anyone save anyone from God anywhere at any time?

And people pay Washer respect! It comes from countless trials, and a peace that has nothing to do with the natural, a peace from God, a peace that passes all understanding.

It comes from countless victories over SIN! Yes, believers ought to have victory over sin! He speaks both truth and falsehood, as is the case of any false teacher or false prophet. Believers are most certainly meant to have victory over sin. To that end, Christ died. But does Paul Washer have victory over sin? If he did, he would not be grandstanding.

A man of God, when he reaches old age, ought to broken into a thousand pieces! This is drama with exaggeration and foolishness — not the hallmarks of a man of God. Before a horse is employed for riding or work, it is broken.

Before a team of oxen is put to plowing, the oxen are tried and fitted in spirit for the yoke. Likewise, a man of God is prepared before being sent out. He is first broken, which is the only way he can ever be a man of God.

Once broken, there is no need for breaking again and again. We enter the Kingdom of God through much tribulation, with life and fulfillment on the other side:.

Does he open and break the clods of his ground? And he drives the wheel of his cart; and his horses do not beat it small. Washer, God neither ravishes nor mauls, though He chastens and scourges in discipline. Will you blaspheme in passion to exalt yourself? Yes, you will.

And why, if not because you have never experienced a true relationship with God, His chastening or scourging? You have no idea what those are, in truth. Many have suffered the deception of a spurious conversion in such a way. I marvel at how men add to, and take from, the Word of God while warning others against doing so. Your blood is not as precious, nor is mine, as the Gospel of Jesus Christ…. Can a man speak so? Can, and should, he swear? Does he have power to keep such promises?

Does he know? From Theopedia :.
