To be SAVED you must be BORN AGAIN Are you really a new creation? Have you really sincerely dedicated yourself to Jesus to follow him by obeying the voice of the Holy Spirit? My sheep HEAR my voice New birth is not just an attempt to serve God and fight against sin on your own, or a theological description of your christian life. It is a SUPERNATURAL WORK of God that changes your desires towards God, it is a MIRACLE that results only from total surrender to God Have you experienced this wonderful joy and peace that surpasses all understanding?
With God, do not be afraid! The truth of those who said: "Do not bear the earth on your heads" "And God has placed it under your feet" Moses the infant did not drown while on the top of his weakness! And Pharaoh drowned while he was at the height of his might! Whoever is with God will not be harmed by his weakness, and whoever is not with God, his strength will not benefit him
Thank you for this message. For me, I have learned that it isn't so much what I am praying for, though that is important. But it is where I am praying from. In Ephesians 2: 3-4 Paul talks about living in the body and the mind as children of wrath carrying out the desires of the flesh. As a Christian, for decades I never understood this. I was living as and praying as the flesh and the mind. But one night, in pain and prayer, I had a transformational experience of Gods presence and from that moment I understood. And I began to learn that God is Spirit, and that our true nature is spirit, not flesh and mind. I believe I had this experience because my pain was so great that I was willing to give up everything for God's deliverance. Through the pain, God was breaking down my will and my pride and leading me to the spirit. From that point I began to pray in the spirit, and I experience peace, the peace of Christ, regardless of circumstance. It isn't prefect in me, but it is growing. Know that your nature is not flesh and mind. Explore your spirit. This is where true connection with God begins, through the holy spirit.
Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗬 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗦𝗔𝗬 to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ Matthew 7:21-23
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 3:1-7
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 2 Timothy 4:3-4
Alive in grace.... As we were in mozambique, we preached the Gospel as the restoration of man to the image of God for free, because of Gods love. We explained the fall of man and Gods resolution by His own atoning blood and transformation power and love of Holy Spirit. After asking who would want to become this new creation, 75% of the villagers stood on their feet. I just said: "Father, Holy Spirit, here are your children, keep them in your truth and make them like you". We had a general fire tunnel. All that went through it got touched by Holy Spirit, wobly on their feet. The day after we prayed for the sick. Children danced in front of us leading us to the homes where people lay sick. Some starving. All got healed. After the 9th healing we looked at eachother and said: this is what the first church was like, all got healed. A woman, later it turned out she was the wife of the head of the Village, was laying on a bed with red swollen legs. In pain. She could not walk. As i prayed for her wholeness, i looked away, looked at her legs again and was like: hey, those legs were red and swollen a second ago... How God does that... well He is God... and He is in us... Another woman had severe stomage issues. After the first "be whole, be healed" prayer, nothing happened. Someone said: "i think it is a 4th generational curse!". Well, that does not change the Gospel so we prayed again. The woman felt "something" leave her stomage and was instantly well. Etc, etc. After a week we stopped by on our way home. The son of the head of the Village leaped for joy and said that all we had prayed for had been healed and numereous people had had revelations from Holy Spirit. But, there was this one man he really wanted us to pray for. Antonio. He laid in a chickenshed on a broken bed. Just skin and bones. It turned out that in his teenage years he had been wandering of in to the mountains, screaming and yelling for years, returned home, laid down, never moved again, never spoke again. Total muscle loss. Total contraction. Unable to move. I crawled up to him, embraced him on his bed standing in his faeces. Loved on him, cried over him, spoke healing, completeness over him, said it was all over, that Jesus has come to make him whole again. In the mean time i said: Jesus am i doing ok? He answered: you're doing just fine. We washed him. Dressed him up. All on his bed. Then suddenly i heard Holy Spirit say: get him on his feet! So i took his hand and said: arise! And pulled him up on his feet. Wobly but standing, he made his first steps in 15 years. Impossible! The whole village went banana's praising God. We gave some last instructions and drove home. God stooped down in Christ to give us back the divine life Adam let go of in the fall of man. What a resolve, what a God, what a love. Be encouraged. Continue in the faith. Holy Spirit guides in to truth and transforms all of us back to original created value: Christlikeness. Walking in unselfish divine power and love. www.anewcreationinchrist.nl/english
Matthew 7:9-11 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone?(10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? (11 So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR BIRTHRIGHT!!!!!!He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. By his wounds. you are healed. - 1 Peter 2:24 - NLT that through us Lord you may be seen keep praying keep seeking and knocking and it will come to you Repent and ask Jesus help you come to him and be authentic not doing things for him as a chore and pray for faith in him.
I don't see where "works" could be be defined as choosing? What am I missing? I could understand "works" being adherence or obedience (or sacrifice) to the law?
I was waiting on this chapter... Am so grateful but I have a problem understanding the phrasing of verse 4. Verse 4: "But God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love which he loved us" Does this verse mean God's mercy resulted in his love and that's why we were saved?!, Because I personally thought his love resulted in his mercy which saved us. Can someone help me understand the grammar or phrasing before next week please... Thanks

Faith is not a work. Faith is a choice, a response to Gods drawing that God has deigned to recieve as righteous and then grant the grace of salvation. Abraham was "counted" as righteous. Until Jesus, no one was "saved". But many in the old Testament were counted as righteous by faith. By faith we believe in Christ and God accepts us in the beloved.
Not a popular answer with Pastor John’s flock. If it’s a work, then the slippery slope begins. I don’t believe in two of the solas (scripture and faith) so I will get blasted anyway, but the idea of faith being a work is patently silly. It results in absurdities like ‘saying yes to One who does all the work being actually stealing His glory’. The thing is that this really is all about the Calvinist uber sovereign god being the only one who can guarantee the flock their salvation. And that is it: THEIR salvation. It’s all about getting to heaven. Any harshness that a ok because they themselves are saved. And they believe it is wonderful even if, as high Calvinism entails, that babies are in hell. I think many here don’t understand the full extent of Calvinisms implications. But of course I am misrepresenting Calvinism. Everyone is who is not a Calvinist. Only Calvinists get it. Because they are elect and now special. 😊
I really have liked John Piper for years. But some of these comments are mind blowing to me in a negative way. God created our dna. How is that disobedience? Secondly our family linage disobedience for the current person? I’m not responsible for what someone whom I’m related to that’s been dead since before I was born actions. Unless I physically or negatively provoke someone to do something bad. I don’t think, and would pray that I don’t cause disobedience or anything bad in those Im related to, anyone, especially my immediate family. Does this have something to do with generational curses? I don’t really know anything about them other than they exist. Should I be concerned about them? Shouldn’t a simple prayer stop them or flesh ties from my sexual sin in the past? I think so but don’t know so biblically. I quickly thought of James 5:16 while asking this question in reference to a prayer being able to fix the two problems I asked about.
We should all be concerned with generational curses and be delivered from them. Pastor Cherie at Three Hearts Church did a teaching on this very subject. ua-cam.com/video/sgDgETMXOdI/v-deo.html
Where would we be without His Grace and Mercy ? !!!
Excellent teaching pastor John. Thank God for you 🙏
Thank you Dr Piper, may God bless you with His presence always. May the Grace of Jesus Christ be with you

But mark this:
There will be terrible times in the last days.
