Repent!
I pray every one of my readers takes the time to listen to this powerful and life changing message where Paul Washer BOLDLY speaks the truth to 5000 youth! In a day when so many churches have sold out to circus antics, I’m wondering if this brave preacher needed a body guard by the time he left!

Dear Sacred Calling Readers:
If you have one hour for a redbox this week, then you have one hour for this video. Don't decide not to listen to this message because you have too many things to do. It is not just for your teenagers. It is for you. Listen…
Listend to this message a few years ago. It's from 2002.
Have listend to subsequent sermons and they really do convey the Gospel without compromise.
Jesus tells us that we will be hated by all for His names sake, Luke 21v17.
Don't be surprised when it comes our way.
We have been warned.

Paul Washer is my favorite preacher, I download his sermons from SERMONAUDIO.com and play them on my MP3 player and my computer. check out his 3 part sermons on marriage, I put them on a new IPod shuffle and am passing it around for my five grown sons to listen to.
Our family watched this several months ago. We had downloaded it from SermonAudio and were quite impressed with his sincereity and honesty. Isn't it a shame though that in his introduction he let's the kids know that he will probably not be asked to come and speak again because he is going to speak the truth and not just entertain them?
This is a must-listen for *ALL* of us- not just teens! I have heard many, many, 'scorchers', and sermons that made you go,'Wow, I am rotten…' but this is really really really good. I am an independent Baptist, and one thing that I have noticed sometimes in our circle that bothers me is an 'easy believism' theology. 'Say a prayer, and you're good.' No, I don't think so- that's not what the Bible says! Now, the majority of us don't believe that way, but I fear that the independent Baptists possibly started that thinking. This really made me pause and examine my own heart!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I pray that this becomes the hearts desire of this nation. I pray that our families be changed and bear good fruit.
Thanks again,
Jennifer
My Lord Almighty, I can't believe this: a pastor using repulsive, Fear factor and animalistic male tactics to appeal to youths?? Are they joking? This is simply awful. I nearly vomited while reading that article; I do wish it came with a warning :S
Jennifer is referring to the "circus antics" link within the intro to Paul Washer – not Paul Washer's sermon! :-)
Jennifer, yes, it is shocking. Can you imagine if you were a parent who allowed your child to visit a church, only to have him come home and tell you he had witnessed, or perhaps even engaged in such vile antics there?
I'm thinking I should post it as a separate post, so nobody thinks we're discussing Paul Washer's sermon! LOL
Whoops! Yes, it was the wild pastor in the article I was referring to, not Pastor Washer's sermon. lol
You're right Stacy, I really can't imagine my son(s) telling me they saw that, much less took part in it. It's very obviously a terrible attempt to appeal to the world and the worldly. What's next, binge drinking the wine of Communion?
Stacy,
thank you so much for sharing this. It is the most powerful message I have heard in a VERY long time. I have put it on my blog, so the message can continue to spread. I pray that MANY lives will be changed for all eternity.
I read the "circus" article and I wish I could say that I was surprised. This sort of nonsense in youth groups is becoming more and more common and it's a total shame. Churches don't need to resort to these sorts of disgusting antics to bring a youth to Christ.
We recently changed churches because they seemed to be more interested in entertaining everyone with cutesy plays and dramas than in uncompromisingly preaching the gospel. At last, we're in a church that isn't afraid to say the Bible is God's only infallible law for Christian living. The sermons feed your faith and challenge your thinking.
I am happy to see that Paul Washer is coming to Michigan. Not too far away from me either!
Wow, this is such a powerful message! Thank you for sharing this.
I have heard this before and so worth every minute of listen but all things are powerful coming from Paul Washer. May the Lord continue to strengthen and use him!

I finally had the chance to listen to this sermon – Wow! Was I definately blown away! I've never heard of this preacher before, but there is definately a "no nonsense" approach to him, and that's great! We need more preachers who are willing to speak like this to the public – the real stuff, not fluff. Thanks for sharing. This message has really given me something to ponder and think about.
That is incredible! I'm posting it on my blog as well.
Aw, it's Paul Washer! He just came to our church a couple weeks ago and spoke on marriage for 4 days. It was wonderful.
One of the ladies in our church became saved after googling: All Christians are going to hell, and then finding this sermon. HA!
Finally got a chance to listen to this and agree that it is very powerful.
Thank you, Stacey, for posting this.
I read the circus antics article and sadly, I thought they were speaking of my youth group in high school.
My youth pastor had another youth leader do the peanut butter/armpit stunt, I remember our fear factor night. Several students got sick or almost got sick from eating a spoonful of salt. I remember one year the new freshman students were "oriented" into the youth group by youth leaders waiting with them across the street in the church's overflow parking lot – there they were made to put on adult diapers over their jeans, and paper bags over their heads (with holes cut out so they could see) – and marched across the street to the church and into the youth room.
And that was 10 years ago.
I found him hard to listen to so couldn't finish the video, but went and read the article and was appalled. This stuff is inappropriate, but churches have been doing it since the 80's. We should not be willing to do ANYTHING to geta convert. And, are they really converted if we've had to act like monkeys to get them to convert?
I also wanted to say that if as a parent, anybody had their own children licking peanutbutter out of their armpits, they'd be considered sexually abusive or a pervert and have their children taken away from them. How can this be allowed to go on? And why do churches have to be more outrageous than the world when it comes to stuff like this? And why do they have to be GROSS?
