What he’s saying is actually very liberating. It’s hard to explain.. but all of the “big plans” and “big vision” can be very self oppressive, setting yourself up to pursue things that really have nothing to do with what you’re called to. His words here set you free from chasing some vision and call you to minister to God’s people in truth. I find this a very freeing thought, though maybe I’m not explaining it right.

[@clayclaborn636]

I think you explained that very well, Steve. At least for me. I needed to hear this message very badly today. When you focus on the big vision or dreams you have, you are missing out on the kingdom by not focusing on what is right in front of you and what you are called to do.

[@HumbleHeartMinistry]

That’s the bottom line! Many Pastors want revival, but they think of revival as going from a small church to a bigger and bigger church. It becomes all about numbers of people instead of discipling those that God has already trusted them with! So they end up with buildings full of milk drinking, and lukewarm Christians, who are still sitting in the same pews for decades, and never reach maturity. When a person truly becomes mature in the faith, it’s not about how many people show up on Sunday, it’s about loving and helping, and putting others needs before your own! When you become mature in the faith, you become last, and the needs of others become first! That is one of the many reasons we can’t reach the unbelievers, because they are not seeing the true love of God in the people that say they know Christ! They are seeing pews full of people that are there for themselves, and not for the needs of others!

[@HumbleHeartMinistry]

@@raymondong349 There is error of some sort in almost all the churches in this country. What you do is be the church! Make Gods word your delight, meditating in it day and night, along with prayer. Follow men only as they follow Christ, proving all things as the scripture directs us to! Be not a follower of man’s doctrines, but Gods truth! Do the things God commands as he reveals his truth to you. Be a doer of the word, and not just a hearer. Allow Gods Spirit to teach and direct you. Keep in mind that not everyone is the same spiritual age! Don’t judge, but love and be an example to them! Stay humble in your mind when Gods Spirit reveals his truth to you. Love builds up, but knowledge puffs up! Walk in the light God has revealed to you at the point where you are in your faith. Don’t try to be more than you are! And remember love is what it’s all about! If you obey what God has taught you, and do his word, and walk in humbleness and love. Others will see your faith and be drawn to you, and follow suit! But if you have a Pastor that is proud, and can’t, or refuses to be admonished. Sometimes, you have to search for another place. But never do anything without much prayer! Sometimes/many times, we just don’t understand what reason God has us where we are! Could be you will be the spark that starts the fire of revival in that church? God bless!

The problem is that he is narrowminded and dead wrong. He sees only one way to serve the Lord - the one God called Paul Washer to. He sees every other way as wrong. Yes, a church needs a Pastor to serve the congregation. That is a good a valuable job and ministry. BUT what Washer is completely blind to is that there are many jobs to do in Gods kingdom and they are not all pastors. Some are evangelists (churchplanters) to take the Gospel to new places and then move on. This is what Paul the apostle did. and what Washer is ragging on like a blind infant. Both are needed. St. Paul planted churches and left then with pastors who stayed with them and nurtured them . Washer is blind as a bat.

I love Paul’s heart and I believe I understand what he’s communicating. My only rebuttal, or question rather, would be, shouldn’t our ministry and mission efforts flow from our love for Him? Not to say we shouldn’t love those who we are called to, but Kingdom mission, preaching, advancement of any kind, if it’s to be successful in His eyes, should be because we are so deeply in love with Him, as opposed to our love for the people. Our love for those we serve becomes a by product of our first love. I was just meditating on this this evening. Matthew 7:23 also came to mind

This is so refreshing to me. Of course we’ll love people when we love Him, and way more effectively as we focus on Him.

He is ALL.

[@karinarinarina]

Loving Christ is loving others! Of course it’s important at times of struggles and trials to be reminded why exactly we ought to pour into one another and that is because it is what Christ would do and because we love Him we should want to respect and honor Him by continuing to love others.

I Agree with everything that brother Paul Washer said.. I can see the sincerity of what he is saying... But to add a little more spice to the menu...

[@josheemaduncan4924]

I had to repent . There has been something between me and the lord to the point where I almost didn't want to sing praise n worship any more because sometimes I would have encounters with him and other times it would feel empty and I was praying for an answer to why ,, somewhere along the way I idolized singing and it became my God more than the God I was singing to and he will share his glory with nothing or no one simple as that ... I think God for the rebuke he rebukes those he loves.. and godly repentance leads to change amen

1 Corinthians 3:4-13 KJVS [4] For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? [5] Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? [6] I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. [7] So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. [8] Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. [9] For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. [10] According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. [11] For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. [12] Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; [13] Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

As someone who is going into the missions field in a foreign country, my vision is simple: Encourage and uplift the body of Christ and point them toward Christ. Discipleship is key. Evangelism numbers sound impressive and praise God for the salvations, but discipleship is where the church really flourishes.

I can't imagine a missionary ever loving "those people".

[@benbankson]

Definitely a good to point to bring balance. I think it may be limited tho as it seems to focus only on one of the five fold gifts of ministry. Very true that pastors carry a very heavy responsibility and shouldn't forget the "why" behind pastoring, but there are also people who operate as apostles, prophets, evangelists, and teachers, all potentially feeling their part is the most important. Even the Apostle Paul got rid of John Mark because he was whining about home. But thankfully Barnabas took the time to mentor John Mark and help him grow (eventually writing one of the gospels and becoming useful to Paul later). Both gifts were on display with Barnabas mentoring the difficult and Paul facing unimaginable persecution as he planted churches across the gentile world. Definitely a good word tho and very much appreciated to help remind those of us who are in pastoral ministry not to elevate the operation of the ministry over the purpose of the ministry which is to encourage, exhort, reprove and rebuke to help grow up the saints to be strong and powerful 🙌🙏
