Paul Washer- Deeply caring or too intense?

An exert of a Paul Washer sermon. The man is a missionary, part of an organisation called Heart Cry. I believe he is a great example of how someone can believe in the doctrines of grace, yet have a concern for holiness. The two absolutely go together. His love for God shines through in this clip and it's plain to see it is his main motivation to spread the word.

@Strefanasha Christians are blind because thats the only way you could believe in something so ridiculous. The bible is extremely self contradictory and illogical. Extremely.

@Garykling Alright I will live with intensity in my belief and tell you I think religion is ridiculous and anyone who supports it is either misinformed or delusional.

[Garykling]

Is it not better to live with intensity towards your belief and your God than live as wimps...

Didn't Christ say that because you are lukewarmI I will spit you out of my mouth!

If the Bible is true we will all wish we committed to this life that which Paul Washer has given.

Thank you Paul.

Luke 6:37 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

Romans 14:13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way.

John 8:7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."

@Strefanasha

I tend to agree with much of what you are saying. I think Paul Washer does much good, and he is surely a much better Christian than I. However, I also see that much of his preaching is dangerous and can have adverse affects upon the Body of Christ.

With that said, I wouldn't go as far as saying he doesn't know God...

@88momart forced response pumped up to intensity like this is NOT loving God with ALL your heart.

this is not love it is force. it is feignt and pretense.

I have been there. this mania is highly dangerous.

let him show his love by gentleness and patience. not by a fanaticism pumped up by the will of the flesh.

alas the skeptics here, who see washer as a conman, are wiser than his acolytes.

why are we christians so blind? I was fooled by this myself

[Strefanasha]

intense? you want intense? how far should you go? to madness, exhaustion near to death itself?

I have been there, it is flesh not spirit. it is flesh that strains, sweats and exerts, but it is STILL flesh.

Washer and his raging ilk are the most DANGEROUS there are, for their legalism and mania is hidden behind the facade of sound doctrine.

intensity is pretense deeply habituated. he has forgotten he is indifferent so wil never repent of it. never be freed.

i pity this poor man

[Strefanasha]

rage. That is Washer.

I know the Word of God. The spirit that WAsher represents is not God. It is ranting will of the flesh.

let him show that he relished God by his gentleness joy & peace. But he does not relish God. He does not even know God.

why are the people of God so ignorant as to think that this rank emotionalism is the fruit of the Spirit? Why is it that the alternative to cultural religion, which is vile, is seen to be THIS??

there is error and there is OPPOSITE error

@candiceevans1 This is the most disgusting shit I've ever heard. Who in their right mind would send their child to preach in a war zone? He wants god to look over his son in a war zone, are you kidding me? You some how find this nutjob to be a good person? He needs mental help. If & I mean IF there was a god, don't you think he would have a few other things to worry about like children being raped & killed than to watch over some kid stupid enough to put himself in danger? You people need help.

@keblack2009 what you say is not of Christ. If you are not a christian, that is your choice. But he says what he says because of the teachings of Jesus Christ.
