This is a Shockingly Powerful & Biblical message preached to about 5,000 youth in a day when youth are appealed to through shallow and worldly means.
At one point in this sermon the 5,000 Youth are clapping and yelling BUT THEN the preacher makes a comment that CHANGES THE WHOLE ATMOSPHERE TO WHERE YOU COULD HAVE HEARD A PIN DROP... As you can imagine, the preacher was never invited back.
We believe the whole sermon will be a blessing to many souls.

“ Spread it around! ” This message is circulating around our friends and family and is feeding those who are hungry and thirst for righteousness. Couple this sermon with Paul Washer's series on Biblical Assurance and God really starts working in your heart. But this also comes with a deep burden for the lost and those listening to the 'modern gospel'.

“ more sermons like this... ” this preacher was awesome, very convicting...
Note: This comment was edited down to just the part that actually pertained to the sermon.

“ Great Sermon! ” Great message. This is the type of preaching I have been blessed to hear for many years in Fundamental Baptist churches. I have left many services untterly broken, yet happy for God's constant rebuke and cleansing.
If America's pulpits were like this, we would not have half of the problems we are now facing. There was a day when alter calls were given to Christians to repent for going to movies, and those were the ones 50 years ago. Churches practiced church discipline for gossiping. Personal seperation was expected.
Can anyone really tell a Christian young lady from the world any more? Or a young man who hasn't pierced and tattoed his body?
Oh that all of America's pulpits were like this!

“ Great Sermon! ” I am an older lady. I thought that sermon really hit the spot. I feel the same way as you do. God is calling us to walk holy before him, but today you don't see it, and naturally they are going to reject a sermon like that because they want their cake and eat it to, they are worldly and they think that they will go to heaven. Keep preaching the word of God no matter what people think we need to please God other then men. Keep up the good work....Jan Cash

“ Great Sermon! ” More needed meat for my bones. I don't know if my church would take it as well as that one did, it sure needs it though.
aroyalpriest from Florida (2/26/2008)
“ Powerful, Shocking, Biblical!!! ” Thank God for Paul Washer. This is exactly what I needed. It has transformed my life. For the longest time I thought I was saved. I prayed the "stupid silly and supertitious" prayer, however it DID NOT SAVE ME NOR COULD IT. Salvation is by Grace through faith and that faith is preceded and followed by Repentance. It was upon this realization that would change my life. This is the kind of preaching we need, not this humanistic self centered "would you like to go to heaven" stuff. Praise Jesus!
Gina from Costa Rica (2/22/2008)
“ Praise the Lord!!!! ” I thank God that there are still people out there that are willing to STAND UP FOR THE TRUTH. God Bless!!!!!!!!!
Gail Shifflett from North Carolina, USA (2/13/2008)
“ Wonderful message, Paul!!! ” What a great sermon this was! One that EVERYONE- new Christians, old Christians, pastors, evangelists, youth leaders and even unsaved people- need to hear.
The fact that Paul would not get invited back again to preach at this place shows us the condition of the "church" in America today!
We need to stop sending missionaries overseas and start sending them HERE- to "churches" in America!
And a good place to start is with the televangelists on TBN and other "Christian" networks.
Jeremy UK from Nottingham, England (1/31/2008)
“ You Don't Need Good News if there's No Bad News! ” Driving up the A1 some months ago, I was overtaken by the Spirit of God as I became aware of Church Spire after Church Spire every 2-3 miles pointing to the sky but like tombstones. I wept uncontrollably as God showed me the tattered remains of what was once a great Christian nation. I moved out of Charismatic Chaos and into Reformation theology with the help of some wonderful US baptist preachers. Thank you Paul, for confirming what I already knew to be true. Without access to a clear message of repentance, saving faith is an impossibility.
Ken P (1/22/2008)
“ Great Sermon! ” Great Sermon! We need to preach the word in season and out of season. We need to let all people know the way to be saved.
Taylor (12/20/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” I think that it was a great sermon but wrong audience. There is a proper time and place for things of that nature and you have to look at the bigger picture in something like this where youth are at a point of uncertainity anyway, is this really the best approach. I personally think that it would hinder more than help. Even though the sermon was great. I personally loved it and it inspired me and put some things in check in my personal spiritual life.
Raul from Deep South (12/9/2007)
“ A Real Awakening Sermon! ” It is sobering to hear the truth about the way we really are today. People need to know the way to salvation is not just saying your saved but living it and putting it into practice the way the Bible says it to be so. People need to pray before reading the Bible to understand it and not just trust what they are being told by a pastor or church member because they too can be wrong no matter how old or how long they proclaim to study it. People need to research how during the Enquisition people paid with their lives to know the truth about the Bible for which we take for granted today!
sandra (12/8/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” I'm speechless,I have been waiting for 26 years for a preacher like this.
well done and God Bless.
Joel from http://desh412.blogspot.com (12/4/2007)
“ Good Stuff ” Fantastic truth. Oh how we, especially the youth being raised under false Christianity, need to know the absolute Truth in God's Word.
Kudos for his laying down himself to speak the harsh reality of the Word.
Harvey Ambrose from Mid South (12/1/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” Good Sermon and interesting comments. Some many of you express how convicted you were by the sermon; but it almost seems that you think there is some kind of virtue in the conviction. The proper response to conviction is prayer and supplication, repentance and faith. Seek God's salvation in prayer until He persoanally answers and tells you that He's forgiven you. There is still a group of old-time missionary baptist churches in this country who believe and teach like brother Washer, but none of us are still in the SBC.
Natasha from Oklahoma (11/21/2007)
“ Beautiful message straight from the Bible ” The tears welled up in my eyes when I heard you speak the very things I was being critisized myself for saying. I was beginning to believe that I was somehow misinterpreting the Bible because so many people were angry at me for pointing out their fake Christianity. My husband is one of those people, he was babtized at 9 years old and still to this day I can not convince him that just cause he took a bath in a church is he really going to heaven. It is so nice to know there is still someone out there who cares more for the sinner than his own pocketbook. I love your sermons.
Samuel from Oklahoma (11/12/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” I am in shock & it's a good shock! Thank you so much for this sermon.
a.return.to.christianity (9/30/2007)
“ http://areturntochristianity.blogspot.com ” I absolutely love this sermon. It convicted me, and I've been going to church for YEARS without change. Now I see that I may not have been a Christian for all that time. How powerful, and how great is our God. Bless Brother Paul.

“ Great Sermon! ” Praise God! Praise God! Praise God!! He still has His men out there preaching the TRUTH that the Holy Spirit brings home to the lost soul and men are SAVED!!!! Praise God! His mercy endureth forever!!

Keith Regel Llanos (8/3/2007)
“ All-Time Shocking and Convicting! ” He is a man of God! God struck down His sword to me and convicted me... It is evident that God is working to this man and He (God) wants us to thirst for Him, draw closer and closer to Him, for His purpose, glory and honor. Thank you pastor Paul for teaching me how to be saved... Glory and honor be to Him alone!!
Don R. (7/17/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” This sermon was unbelievable. I/we desperately need men like these once again in our pulpits. Let us all beg the Lord for solid, true Biblical preaching like bro. Paul preached hear. It is cutting but so neccesary. It's hard for me to think how many people will be lost thinking this preaching is not neccesary or too strict or too legal. This man cares for souls!
Don R. [N.J.]
Don R. (7/17/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” It is no wonder that Bro. Paul was not invited back. How sad that is though. It shows that many " Christians" cannot/do not want to hear Biblically, 100 % percent sound preaching such as bro. Paul's message. I/we desperately need to hear this truth, even if it hurts. My/our souls are at stake. Let us pray that God will call more pastors to America that will preach this same truth, while there's still time.

“ Whatta Sermon!!!!!!! ” What a message every serious Christian needs to here! It really helped me especially since Im still a 'babe in Christ'. God has certainly used this message to warn and strengthen me and Id like to encourage everyone to re hear until Paul Washer's message permeated into our very being. May God bless him and keep him faithful. I love you Paul for loving Christ enough to be so blunt with the truth. May your tribe increase!. May God raise man like you all over the world that will raise His standard high above all mediocrity!
wayne sproule (7/10/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” I attend a convention baptist church. The 'sermons' are just plain sickening at present. Someone is passing around both the cd and dvd of this messsage. PTL. The result is amazingly profitable. The divide among our youth over this dart to the heart is like the difference between Heaven and
Hell. Wayne
Robin Baitz (6/26/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” This is definitely a wake up call for the Church and how it communicates Gospel truth and for the make believers. It was convicting to me!
Limavady Boy (6/26/2007)
“ The truth ” So refreshing to hear the truth again. When you've drip fed 'seeker friendly' style sermons, the truth slowly blurs to social action and feel good psychology. I'm glad I heard this sermon, and the truth of God's Word it contained. Thanks...
Bob R. (6/22/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” We should not be surprised that this preacher of the Gospel has not been invited back. Even though I am a southern Baptist, I am dismayed at the "feel good" theology that is becoming more pervasive in the SBC as well as other denominations. Too many "believers" think they had the last voice in their salvation. For this reason, men like Brother Washer will never be popular with the feel good, seeker sensitive crowd. I thank God that He has given us men like Brother Washer.
Emmanuel (6/19/2007)
“ Another Paul of to-day ” Praise God for such messages &I thank Bro. Paul also for giving such revival youth messages May God bless Paul We thank sermonaudio.com for internetting the same
Ashley (6/18/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” That message is awesome. He did not sound like any baptist preacher I ever heard. Not even Billy Graham. Thank for someone who is not afraid to preach the whole consel of God. Praise the Lord!
Max (6/15/2007)
“ Nothing shocking, just the truth ” I was listening through this message to find out what was so shocking. Here's the answer: NOTHING!!! I believe the fact that he was not invited back proves 2 TIMOTHY 4 VERSES 1-5 to be right. I need to abide every day by his word, so should every true christian. PRAISE THE LORD FOR BROTHER PAUL WASHER
Stick To The Word (6/14/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” I've heard a lot of teachings. But wow, you've got to hear this one. I know there are a lot of comments on this one, but I just had to throw mine in to get people to listen to this message. I frequently listen to the last quarter of this message.
Paul B in England (6/12/2007)
“ Awesome Sermon! ” Paul is rightly very challenging in this sermon. It is God's word he is stating not his. It is easy to get trapped into the world and it's thinking especially in the west. ALL Christians need to be reminded and reminded and reminded of this truth,
Thank you Paul for your courage.
Brandon (6/6/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” I find it interesting that so many comment on the fact that this is a great sermon, which i agree it is. My question is, why is it that we as the 'church' have so few who preach this way. If this is true and we are prone to say that it is, then why do we not live like it and why do we still listen and follow those who do not believe the same word of truth? If you listened and agreed you must also be changed. Are You? Have I?
Jay A. (6/6/2007)
“ ABSOLUTE MUST HEAR!!!! ” I HIGHLY and STRONGLY recommend anyone who calls themselves a serious christian to listen to this sermon. This is an ABSOLUTE MUST HEAR!!!!
Nsikan (6/1/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” This about the 5th time I am listening to this message and I thank the Lord all the time because it reminds me always where I am and where I should be. I have sent it to many of my friends and will continue. May the Lord Jesus strengthen Bro Washer, Sermonaudio and all who listened and repented on hearing the word of the Lord in Jesus Name.Amen.
laurie B. (5/25/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” May God raise up more preachers like Paul Washer. Sadly, America has a superficial form of Christianity and even leaders of our churches are blinded by their own worldliness. Many are under the impression that when the rapture occurs, so many Americans will suddenly vanish, thus causing the collapse of this nation. I fear there will be little impact on this country if the rapture were to happen today. Let us all pray for America, for she is sliding headfirst directly into the pit of hell. God bless you Pastor Washer.
Wayne M. (5/22/2007)
“ Great Sermon! ” Thank you for powerful Biblical message. It has caused me to re-examine my life.
