Hello everyone.
While on Tim's video page two days ago, I skimmed through a few others and bumped into Paul Washer. I know he misses the part where some are administrators and helpers in the church. Or that every part is responsible for different tasks in order for the body to function as a whole. So I do admit that this purporting missionary work as the one and only true way of christianity is wrong. And there're also talks about hell
But the way this man preaches repentance has got me thinking. We may be 'comfortable' with sinning because we know that GOD is the ONE who does the changing (I've seen threads on the subject). But we also know that GOD is not 'comfortable' with sin. We see this from Genesis to Revelations. This is not sarcastic: is it pleasing to GOD for us to
continue sinning? To keep
practicing it?
I dont mean to come down on people. I dont know what they get up to. But I know what I get up to. And this man's videos have helped me see that I ought to grovel and weep. Maybe I'm being hard on myself. And I'm definitely not 'deceived' by his antics or something like that. Sin isn't fulfilling. I don't know why we don't have any record of apostle Paul, the called & chosen chief sinner, continuing in sin after he was converted but I cant help but wonder...
All Glory to GOD
Oh, here's an example of the preaching I'm talking about:
