Editor's Note: Paul Washer is a broadcaster on SermonAudio.
According to Paul Washer, many contemporary preachers speak not to “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” but to “Slightly Dysfunctional Individuals in the Hands of a Mildly Disgruntled Deity.” Washer reminds readers that forgiveness presupposes sin and sin makes God angry in The Gospel’s Power & Message (Reformation Heritage Books, 2012), a series of 26 messages built (mainly but not exclusively) on 1 Corinthians 15, Romans 1, and Romans 3. Like the Puritan preachers of the 17th century, Washer seeks to put the whole system of theology into his weekly sermons—and like them, he sometimes preaches on the same text week after week in order to present different but related truths from systematic theology.
