I'm 40 years old. I graduated from a local private Christian high school, and later I graduated from a local mega church bible school and its 2nd year internship, and in that church I sat in nearly 3 sermons a week for nearly 10 years straight. But only now, after leaving mega church #1 & then mega church #2 behind, only after being told of Pastor John and the vast resources at Desiring God by a colleague and now dear friend of mine, I've spent 22 months listening to Pastor John's preaching and teachings online, only now am I learning to read my Bible correctly. And oh! what a miracle it is to know and fellowship with the Risen Christ, even and especially in my current pain & sufferings and in much affliction. Because the steadfast love of GOD is better than life, my lips will praise you. 'And all the things of this world grow strangely dim, in the light of his glory and grace.' 💯❤️✝️
The immensity of such quickening ... is joy unspeakable and full of Glory! The earnestness in the orchestration of your words displays the movement of the Holy Spirit... It is that certain significance that is a thread among all who are indwelled; indeed, it is a Stream... for even more than simply a tie that binds, it actually moves in and through each and every... who has been breathed upon through the Gospel and as with the rest of The Word, is a peculiar Glory that is theopneustos of which Piper is a conduit.

Were you tricked into believing we are under the law and need to keep the 10 commandments to be saved? I honestly never fully believed that and I think it might be a curse to believe we are saved only if we believe in jesus and then also keep the 10 commandments believing if we don't keep them continually Jesus will tell us to depart from him I think its a great idea to try to follow 10 commandments best you can but I'm a little confused if anyone wants to tell me what they believe you need to do to be saved
@@HeckinnD In order to be saved all we must do is repent (Luk. 13:1-5), which is to recognize our evil works and utter depravity. Recognize the punishment for that sin and evil, (Rom. 2:5-11, Rom. 6:23, 2 Thes. 1:8-10, Heb. 10:28-30) which is everlasting destruction apart from God under His wrath. Atop this believing that Christ has taken upon Himself all of this wrath, this judgement, this separation from God, even though He did not deserve this. Christ came and lived a perfect life experiencing our pain and temptations, yet remained sinless (Heb. 4:15-16). He was then rejected, abandoned, denied, spat upon, beaten, betrayed, hung on a cross, and for three hours experienced the wrath we all deserve (Mat. 26-27). He then died, Almighty Ruler and King, dead, that now we may be free from sin if we believe (John. 8:36, Rom. 6:1-14, Col. 1:13-23). And if we believe we are free from the wrath we were once under for He is the sacrifice for sins, offering His perfect blood the Spotless Lamb which is necessary for forgiveness (Eph. 1:7-8). He then, after three days rose from the dead, conquering death, that now we may be alive to Christ, to live by the Spirit, (Rom. 6:1-14, 1 Cor. 15), He was then glorified, He reigns on high having all power and dominion, all authority having been given to Him (Mat. 28:18, Phil. 2:5-11). If you believe these things, that Jesus has died for your sins, for you are evil and broken and wretched, that by believing you shall receive eternity with Him, forgiveness of sins, rather than the eternity in hell we deserve. Then you shall be saved, and despite your evil shall be made blameless and perfect before Him, (Eph. 2, 1 Tim. 1, 1 Cor. 15:3). Now, as a christian, in response to all He has done, offer your members a living sacrifice, live worthy of the calling with which you're called, and lay. down your life, (Eph 4, Rom. 12:1, Mat. 16, Mat. 10, Luke. 14).
GOD PLEASE GIVE ME AN UNMATCHED LOVE, PASSION & DESIRE FOR YOUR WORD!! LET EVERYTHING ELSE PALE IN COMPARISON TO YOUR WORD!! Please pray for me brothers & sisters
I have never heard a sermon like this before. This spoke to my soul. I pray for an increased desire for Gods words. I pray for supernatual seeing 🙌🏾 May the holy Spirit, lead me to all truth about my Lord and savior Jesus Christ. 🙏🏽
It's not surprising...in this world we have more evil than good people. You will understand if you would speak God's way...word..even if in a company of just 3 people... Then,2 out of three will be against you, while the remaining one will just hear and forget.
I fear I don't have love for others in my heart but rather what I can have. I try hard to love, but sometimes things that relieve me in mind I tend to love more. People stress me out, and unfortunately sometimes that makes it hard for me to love them correctly . Please pray God gets ahold of my heart to love. I want to love, but not worldly love, but hopefully Godly love I pray, in Jesus name amen!
Abide in Jesus daily by digging into His Word daily to produce fruit, as Jesus is the vine and we are the branches. To produce fruit, we must abide in Him, and Him in us. We know love is a characteristic of the Spirit of God. Exercise in the Word of God as you would at the gym, and the strength of the Spirit will increase in your life. :)
Heavenly Father, please grant us your Supernatural grace and mercy to see, believe, and taste your goodness and glory. Help us understand your scriptures and open our hearts and minds to your Word. May we continue to seek you and set ablaze the Holy Spirit in our hearts so that we may follow your righteous paths and will in our lives. May we glorify you in all our days. We love you Lord for you first loved us. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
I really need to step it up. I was definitely a Pharisee who could read the word, quote some of it, remembered a lot of it, but it wasn't my heart to obey it all. I loved my sin more than God. That has changed but I need to reach a much higher level of obedience to the word of God.
I feel I am the most needy for Gods help. Thank you Jesus for your words of encouragement how you put your hope in our hearts when we go through trials of many kinds. You are glorious and ever loving and ever lasting. Help me Lord to remember your grace is new everyday and I am desperately in need of your grace and mercy.
This is a phenomenal message. I cannot tell you how much listening to Pastor John is transforming my life in Christ. He is opening my eyes to God in ways I never thought possible, drawing me closer and deeper into Him. It is a long slow process and I pray the Lord continues to transform me into who He wants me to be, so His name is glorified!! Thank you JP for being committed to God and His glory. God is most satisfied in us, when we are most glorified in Him!
I am so glad he is still speaking/teaching! When I heard he was retiring from pastoring, I thought we'd never see him again, except maybe every few years at a conference or other special event!
Powerful, Dunamis, Dynamite Teaching. Thank you Jesus for your son that speaks and explains your word as you have wanted us to understand. I cannot get enough 🕊️🙏✝️🔥
God is the only name needed. God created all things for his pleasure. Understanding what God has for your life, you need to read the bible. Each of us is an individual and God has his purposes for your life.
He is sooooo full of the Holy Spirit even in His teaching. Pastor John teaching has changed my life and the way I should love Jesus. Thank you, Father God, for Pastor John
Same to me. I'd heard about him but I never paid attention to his sermons. Now, for me, he has become a goldmine in my spiritual life. Thank you Jesus for the gifts you have given to the church as the pastor John Piper!!! God bless you dear
Definitely going to listen to this again, God willing! The Holy Spirit truly teaches us all things. There are things I know and understand that could have only come from GOD. I noticed most of the time when I’m given new understanding it comes in the morning when I wake up and GOD is on my mind first. Even this morning God gave me a powerful understanding about faith!
Thank you Lord for pastor Piper. Thank you for teaching me your words and how to read the bible. For years I could not understand a thing by reading the bible. It was a closed book to me, Now I know why.
I have to say that this is the best sermon I've heard about reading God's Word. Thank you so much and God bless you! Thank you LORD for opening my eyes and getting me to taste the honey of the Gospel. ❤️
Thank you, Pastor John! You have taught me, directed my intellect and force into observing, embracing Christ as TREASURE, such an amazing Pearl, Discovery. My Bread of Life. Thank you for guiding me into this tremendous understanding and Joy. God bless you, Pastor.
Pastor Piper, I have been up chronic pain patient for the last 30 years. Started with my head with something called occipital neuralgia and continued on with my whole body when I I was fortunate enough to get fibromyalgia( of course, I don't feel all that fortunate. LOL) I love the Lord and I can taste him however this has been very difficult for me and my family we're battle-scarred.

In addition the very that cake since I take to deal with my issues also cause sleepiness and lack of clarity. I am so grateful that the Lord has seen fit to allow so many great sermons and so many great teachers like yourself on the internet. I listen to sermons quite often everyday and Hope oh, very much, this will feel my need. My pastor, who understands my issues very well, doesn't feel that my inability to experience the three methods of race will inhibit my inability to know and love the Lord. And frankly, I'm holding on to that tightly. Now I have to be honest, I am able to read small sections but get frustrated when I have to stop so, I guess I avoid it. I would appreciate your thoughts on this. thank you very much
42 people thumbed this down??? my 47 years on this planet, i'd never had would have thought the tears those 42 thumb downs, would hurt me! Back in my old flesh, i'd have been mad! But glory to GOD am I thankful for this man...5***** sermon

“...and maybe, supernaturally, he asks you what is the hope that is in you, and you can tell him what you read...” incredible. Impacting. Motivating. Praise the Lord. I long to feast. Thank you for sharing this.
Praise God for you john piper...may great grace be your portion and repose...and may God grace us with yet more time under your spiritually gifted preaching
I love this guy because he helps me love Jesus more and more. He and Timothy Keller have brought me back to God. I don’t think I ever truly loved God the Father, Jesus, the Holy Spirit (one God), before. I just read the Bible and knew about them. My love grows each time I hear Piper and Keller preach.
Although I am Catholic and go to church on Sundays, the only way how to find God and follow him is through the permanent prayers. Silent prayers when I go to work, at work, at home or go to sleep. When I started this model I went through the hard times, failed on my knees many times, but I was always able to get up and go on. The Holly Spirit will lead you. He never leaves you alone. Never.
ptr. John always preaches a " Christ centered preaching"and this is the very need of all local churches today,he is excellent and faithful to the Word of GOD while he is preaching,this is not an entertainment preaching ,this is the powerful preaching through the Word of GOD. Since I have listening to him I am blessed!thank GOD,that he continue use him to proclaim JESUS in the world.Arnel (Reformed Baptist in the Philippines)

An excellent theme... Thank you... "always, when the word of God is manifested, the eyes of the spiritually blind are opened, the ears that were deaf to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, are at last unsealed; those who were crippled in the powers of their soul, become strong; the lame man leaps as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall sing the praises of God." ~Bahá’í Prayers
1 JOHN 5:1 Everyone Who Believes that JESUS is the CHRIST has been Born of GOD, and Everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been Born of HIM. AMEN Hallelujah, Hallelujah
The letter of the law vs the heart of the law. One of the most dangerous doctrines in the church today is follow the letter of the law to such an extent that the heart is ignored. Without the law there would be anarchy. But when over emphasized there is hurt and discouragement and a lack of mercy which turn people away from God.
im stocked in JW cult, indoktrination.. had many experience whit the lord in the summer i had a great relation ship, spiritual super natural, not reborn. New im trying to find back to jesus,
The bible could sometimes be described as a collection of various theological account and teachings but it only becomes the word of God when the holy spirit breathes on it leading to reavealings and unveilings of revelation knowledge!
To understand what God means when He says a thing is a matter of revelation. Not to say that there is something hidden in the Word contrary to what's plainly narrated. But the matter is, it's the reader's view/vision of God and His character that decides your understanding of His Word. The FEAR of the LORD is the beginning of Wisdom.... True wisdom here meaning understanding of God's word as He intends it to be understood. This is within easy access of every believer. You don't need seminary degrees or..whatever it is that people boast about.... Simple men and women of God have had deep understanding of His word because they know Him. These are unknown to most while here on earth... But of the well known too, God has given us many luminaries like AW Tozer, Spurgeon, Leonard Ravenhill...etc.

I am so grateful that the Lord has seen fit to allow so many great sermons and so many great teachers like yourself on the internet. I listen to sermons quite often everyday and Hope oh, very much, this will feel my need. My pastor, who understands my issues very well, doesn't feel that my inability to experience the three methods of race will inhibit my inability to know and love the Lord.

"always, when the word of God is manifested, the eyes of the spiritually blind are opened, the ears that were deaf to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, are at last unsealed; those who were crippled in the powers of their soul, become strong; the lame man leaps as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall sing the praises of God." ~Bahá’í Prayers
Help is here!❤🤟

1 JOHN 5:1 Everyone Who Believes that JESUS is the CHRIST has been Born of GOD, and Everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been Born of HIM. AMEN Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Yes!!! Yes! EVERYDAY.
good word!
The letter of the law vs the heart of the law. One of the most dangerous doctrines in the church today is follow the letter of the law to such an extent that the heart is ignored. Without the law there would be anarchy. But when over emphasized there is hurt and discouragement and a lack of mercy which turn people away from God.
im stocked in JW cult, indoktrination.. had many experience whit the lord in the summer i had a great relation ship, spiritual super natural, not reborn. New im trying to find back to jesus,
Spreads like fire
The bible could sometimes be described as a collection of various theological account and teachings but it only becomes the word of God when the holy spirit breathes on it leading to reavealings and unveilings of revelation knowledge!
There shall be no idols just God
Masterpiece
Heavenly Father thank you for everything...in Jesus name... amen
Amen!
To understand what God means when He says a thing is a matter of revelation.
Not to say that there is something hidden in the Word contrary to what's plainly narrated. But the matter is, it's the reader's view/vision of God and His character that decides your understanding of His Word.
The FEAR of the LORD is the beginning of Wisdom.... True wisdom here meaning understanding of God's word as He intends it to be understood.
This is within easy access of every believer. You don't need seminary degrees or..whatever it is that people boast about.... Simple men and women of God have had deep understanding of His word because they know Him. These are unknown to most while here on earth...
But of the well known too, God has given us many luminaries like AW Tozer, Spurgeon, Leonard Ravenhill...etc.
Give me you everything else can wait!!
YES YES YES.
Amen
One thing is that Jesus does is always points to the Bible .. That's his method.
How dare anyone say anything about who what where when or why nobody knows just be happy rejoice and be glad.
