The "Cross" the Modern Preachers Put in the Back

Paul Washer : Download Sermon

“You see, this is the Cross that all these modern-day “preachers” put in the back of the store and not in the store front window because it’s a shameful thing, it’s a horrid thing, it’s a terrible thing. Some of you are looking at each other as though, ‘I’ve never heard anything like this before.’ Absolutely! And that’s why the Cross has so little power in your life.

This is a horrid thing, a vile thing, not the kind of thing you wear around your neck.”

- Paul Washer, True Discipleship Conference

ow much we know about the Cross will determine the degree of our love for God. How much we know about the sacrifice and sufferings of Christ will determine the passions and convictions of each and every area of our lives! How repulsing it is to know of men and women, so called “christians”, who walk and breathe their everyday “christian life”, people who live without a single definite idea of the truth of that Cross… How offending that they make so little of the love of God revealed in this Gospel! But how much more aggrevating it is to know and realize that the weakness of the pulpit has decided the weakness in knowledge of the people of God! Oh, how much I pray that power would return in our pulpits! Oh, how much I pray! I pray that the true revelation of the knowledge of God in His fullness would once again be preached and be made known to His people!
