Is Man Basically Good or Basically Evil? | Paul Washer

- Man is not now as God made him. He has lost the crown and glory of his creation and has plunged himself into an awful gulf of sin and misery. By his own perversity, he has wrecked himself and placed a consequence of woe on his posterity. He is a ruined creature as the result of his apostasy from God. This requires that we consider, first, a man in his original state, that we may perceive his folly in so lightly valuing it and that we may form a better conception of the vastness and vileness of his downward plunge, for that can only be gauged as we learn what he fell from as well as into. By his wicked defection man brought himself into a state as black and doleful as his original one was glorious and blessed. - A.W. Pink
Man’s basic problem is not a lack of self-esteem. It’s not that he’s out of harmony with his environment. It’s not that he’s sort of out of sync with his Creator. It’s not that he needs to make a few adjustments to sort of getting God on his wavelength. Man’s problem is he is absolutely dead, and he is incapable of relating to God at all - God’s person, God’s truth, or God’s commands. - John MacArthur
We are not sinners because we sin. We sin because we are sinners - R.C. Sproul

The same happend to me. I never use to feel guilty for drinking, or smoking or even hanging around in a bar. Now, i cry my eyes out if i see people in a bar, i rather go through flesh suffering not to drink or smoke because of my LOVE i have for JESUS. I dont want to hurt Him or disappoint Him. My whole out look on life changed. My desires changed. If i can spend the whole day in the word of GOD im so happy. Thank you JESUS for opening my eyes before its to late. Now i can pray for others.
Wonderful message. Such an important truth to realize, people are not good, but evil in our natural state. Most people believe that they are basically good and without the realization of their sin, they will die and go to hell. This message explains this beautifully.
Thank you my brother. So true. And now is the time to accept him before it is too late for us!
What we need to realize and come to terms with is if we are truly born again what grieves the heart of God will grieve ours as well. Thank you Bro. Paul for all you do and live. 🙏
Amen!! We need a new heart!!

Jeremiah 17:9
What sermon is this? Where’s the full thing?
Only Jesus can change the heart! I am evidence of that!
The answer to the question is no. We are neither good nor evil inherently. We are innocent. We all know newborns are innocent. It’s self evident and Paul proves it in Romana 9:11 for those not convinced.
The greatest Man in history, had no servants, and yet they called Him Master. He had no degree, and yet they called Him Teacher. He had no medicine, and yet He was called the Healer. He had no armies, and yet kings feared him. He won no military battles, and yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime, and yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a grave, and He is alive today. And His name is Jesus Christ in Greek, and in Hebrew Messiah Masía (Messiah)

SAY THE MIRACLE Repentance PRAYER daily and it will change your life! Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you now and humbly ask for your forgiveness. LORD, I confess that I'm a sinner and I've broken your Holy Law. I realize that the penalty for sin is death. I believe that JESUS CHRIST suffered and died on the Cross to take the punishment for ALL of my sins. I believe JESUS rose from the dead and I accept Him as my personal Savior. From this moment forward I give you my heart and trust you to be the LORD of my life. Please forgive ALL of my sins and send your Spirit to help me do your will. I Love You, Lord Jesus. I Praise You, Jesus. I Thank You, Jesus. I shall follow you every day of my life.
I thank you for your great love and accept your gift of eternal life, and I pray these things in JESUS name, Amen . Say this prayer faithfully, no matter what you feel, when you come to the point where you sincerely mean each word, with all your heart, something good spiritually will happen to you. You will experience Jesus, and HE will change your whole life in a very special way. You will see. A single saint fights back, and a thousand demons cry in agony. And you are that saint.
Jesus Will Never Leave Nor Forsake You
''Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him and He shall bring it to pass.” Ps 37:3-5
Jesus Christ came into this world to reach those who feel that nobody cares. The Lord’s unfailing love surrounds the one who trusts in Him. The Lord Jesus Christ does care and He is reaching the lonely and the desperate, the confused and the hurt, the depressed and the disillusioned. Jesus Christ is reaching out to you.
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Rom 5:8
As we turn away from our sin and turn to Christ we find forgiveness and freedom.
Jesus Christ is a Friend to the friendless.
He is a Helper to the helpless.
He gives freedom to the addicts.
He loves the unloved.
He accepts the outcasts.
He changes the unchangeable.
He forgives the unforgivable.
He accomplishes the impossible.
He saves sinners.
He seeks the lost.
He gives direction to the aimless.
He gives hope to the disillusioned.
He gives Truth to the confused.
He gives joy to the depressed.
He gives purpose to the purposeless.
He gives hope to the hopeless.
He redeems and He renews.
He touches and transforms.
He answers prayer.
He works miracles before our eyes.
Take away the law and punishment. Then u will see the true nature of human. U go tick off and hurt someone and see what happens!!!! No joke. They gonna chop off ur head. Really. No joke.

ELISHA IN KINGS 19:17-19 was called on Tuesday, June 8, 2021
☎️☎️☎️☎️☎️
This is true. No man can come unless the Father draws him.
The Bible has taught us that The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit are the one true God. Each having a different role with the human race. Yet one God.
The Fathers teaches everyone that God exists. Through the creation!
Romans1: 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
NO ONE HAS AN EXCUSE.
The Father is not the saviour, that is the role of the Son, The Messiah, The Lord Jesus, The Christ!
They are taught by the Father as this verse shows: and the Father sends them that believe that God exists to the Son.
It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me. John 6:45
So when Jesus said that: “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day. John 6:44 It is simple saying that the Father makes all men aware that God exists and sends those who respond to Jesus.
BUT! not all men will respond even though they have no excuse. They know God exists but they made their choice.
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools Romans 1:21-22
Paul verifies this to Timothy: This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. 1 Timothy 2 : 3-6
The Holy Spirit comes into play in a special way only once a person whom the Father sends to the Son for salvation. Those who willingly desire to be right with God. Those who Repent and are Baptized.
JESUS John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Evil
This type of teaching says man lost his crown and glory because of Adam. Where it breaks down is not believing that Jesus undid and redeemed everything that came upon mankind through Adam. Jesus redeemed the entire world that was lost in Adam. After the cross no human has a fallen nature because they died with and in Christ and was also raised with and in Christ. When we realize that we have been raised with Him our life changes because we realize who He had made us.
Sorry but you are incorrect my friend
@@mikefrancis5300 you may be sorry, but I am not incorrect.
@@bradharford6052 After er the cross no human has a fallen nature is incorrect my friend. That's all! Have a good day!
@@mikefrancis5300 😉
.... So, are you saying Hitler did not have a 'fallen nature', and the BTK serial killer was a fantasy? What you are saying is rather a typical 'humanistic' misunderstanding of men.
God made us in His image, but because of the Original Sin - we became mockery of Him. Without being born again, we remain the same. It is not 'when we realize' something that would cause our life to change; it is when God actually changes us.
