False Converts Beware: What True Faith Looks Like | Paul Washer

False Converts Beware: What True Faith Looks Like | Paul Washer

Are you truly saved? In this powerful and sobering sermon, Paul Washer dismantles one of the most common misconceptions in modern Christianity: that salvation is secured by merely saying a prayer. Washer exposes the biblical reality of true conversion, emphasizing that genuine faith in Christ is always evidenced by a transformed life.

🔥 Key Themes in This Sermon:

✅ True Faith Produces Fruit – Salvation isn’t about repeating words; it’s about a supernatural transformation. When God regenerates a person, they become a new creature (2 Corinthians 5:17).

✅ Confessing Christ Comes at a Cost – Jesus said, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father” (Matthew 7:21). In the early church, believers risked their lives to confess Christ. Would you do the same?

✅ Regeneration Is a Work of God – Just as God created light out of darkness in Genesis, He must supernaturally shine His light into our hearts to bring us to salvation (2 Corinthians 4:6). Salvation is not man-made; it is an act of divine power.

✅ The Power of the Gospel Alone – Evangelism is not about emotional manipulation or techniques. Paul Washer warns against watered-down messages and altar calls that produce false converts. Only the pure Gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to bring the spiritually dead to life (Romans 1:16).

🚨 A Wake-Up Call to the Modern Church
Washer doesn’t hold back when addressing how modern churches have replaced biblical truth with entertainment to appeal to the masses. He challenges believers to test themselves (2 Corinthians 13:5) and ensure their faith is genuine—not just an emotional experience.
