Some thing is happening to me I’ve never heard the word taught like this and I feel a thirty year oppression coming off me. I have been crying out to the Lord for a supernatural healing to no avail and now I see I need to abide in the vine there is work I need to do in faith to activate grace through prayer and denying the flesh. I am happy and feel peace that I’m on a path to discover my Savior again.
Don’t forget that grace, by definition, is a free gift, and there is nothing you can do to earn it. Christ did all of the work on the cross already, don’t try to take anything away from that work of your salvation. Your good works resulting from a love for Christ, as a regenerated person, come because Christ loved you first.
Piper’s expression of his ‘religious affections’ is truly a wonder to behold. What a joyful and meek man of God! I genuinely appreciate John Piper’s ministry.
God has grown my faith more than I could have imagined possible through John Piper these last few months. I pray that he has many more years of preaching.
Thank you and God bless you Ps John. 6 ways to describe abiding in Christ: 1. Live in the reality of receiving sap and life from attachment to Christ, John 15:5. 2. Drink and receive love from attachment to Christ, drink often, John 15:9. 3. Abiding in his word which brings his life and love to us. No word no life. John 8:31;6:63;6:68;15:7 4. Believing in Jesus and coming to be satisfied when hungry and thirsty. John 6:35 5. Receiving the spirit and the joy of Jesus. His joy becoming mine. John 15:11. 6. The crucified flesh and blood is the wellspring of life, love, joy etc. John 6:56 Making abiding in Christ a reality: Vocalises the desire to abide in Christ, John 14. Vocalising the daily reality of abiding in Christ, tell him often in front of family, turn your experience into prayer and words that others can hear. Vocalising the desire for fruit that comes from abiding in Christ.
I can’t believe is the first time I hear someone preach and explaining abiding in Christ this way! Awesome Job, I was blessed by this message, confirmed many things for me, God bless you pastor ❤
Amen Amen Amen may we Glorify Christ Love, Joy, Fruit as we abide, Living Water we pray in Jesus Name, Thank You for Bringing word scripture Alive in and through All 🙏🙏🙏
Come soon Lord! Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!
John , 4 years ago , London . UK . He provided that sliver , through you , for me. Still drinking , deeply. Minute by minute, Hour by hour, Day by day. All His work and for His Glory.
I’m laid low in the dust. This is the best sermon I’ve ever heard on abiding in Jesus, as well as the connectivity of abiding to Christian hedonism. The reality that I have even just a smidge of experiential knowledge of what he is preaching is sheer mercy in my life. I will be referring this sermon as a reference for many.
It is amazing to hear someone put into words from scripture what it is to abide in Christ and see that these things are happening in my life on a regular daily basis. I wasn't able to explain what was going on before. This video went a long way giving me the scriptual explanation I needed!
Thanks Pastor John for loving His word and truth so much, it is contagious and inspiring! When I am down, listening to you awaken my hope and dependence on Father God.
I would like to thank you. You messages have been so very helpful. May the Lord bless you and provide you the means to continue to reach out to those in spiritual need.
I am possibly as low in a Valley as ever be. I fear that God may take me lower so I cling to him. I am from MI-Oxford School Shooting. That is unfathomable anguish and pain for those families/friends. My fear…
Oh my. Said a prayer for you soon as I read what you shared. Cling on the Lord Jesus! He is Mighty to save! He is a man of sorrows. You can draw near to Him for your anguish. Hang in there.
Peace and Goodness to you Dr.JOHN PIPER! Thank you very much for your inspiring and wonderful words of God on different parts of the Bible. I'm studying Bible and i really love and inspired by your approach to the word of God. If there is an option to write you i would have said a lot. Thank you very much God Bless you long live.
I hardly come across followers of Christ who are happy; their prayers are always a crying out to relieve them from the trials He is allowing in their lives! I have no sympathy; many are going thru very difficult trials; all He wants is for us to hang onto Him, and to trust Him through it all! Yet, I find they have little or no trust in Him to keep them! When the Son of Man comes, will He find any faith upon the earth?
🛐🙏❤💞💕✅📖✝️🕎🙏😭 Heavenly Father Jesus God, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin. However, I am trusting in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that His death and resurrection of him provided for my forgiveness. I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me! In Jesus Mighty God's holy name, Amen!" 💗❤❤💞This Gospel message if you continue to believe this message, you will be saved: For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried , that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time,
Adam and Eve were with GOD in the garden, I feel like if I was with GOD in the garden I could be only joyous. Why did we betray a wonderful GOD. We are truly evil. I'm sorry GOD forgive me.
This makes prayer a work under the Law. The books of MMLJ are all under the Law according to Jesus. “Born of a woman under the Law”. No mention of “a new creature or the Body of Christ”, so how can this align with Paul’s Epistle that says, “Grace alone”?
If I'm honest though I don't see 'earnestness' or a desperate, crying out, earnest desire anywhere in John 15. It's just not there. Not as a prerequisite nor as a condition. John 15 ha a different tone. Trust and rest is there... Asking isn't even mentioned (that is, asking to abide). Asking is something Jesus talks about elsewhere but frames as, your Father knows even before you ask. Desiring God as in, as the deer pants... that's a real thing but even that I'm not sure is quite synonymous with human earnestness. It has a different feel to me...
Ok Mr Piper, lets see if I get this right from all of the preaching you have done. The following is an honest representation of what you have been saying. To teach our children. Little Johnny, God has predestined the minority of people to be saved and go to heaven forever, and He has predestined the majority of people to be eternally damned and burn in the fires of hell. We have no idea, little Johnny, if God has predestined you to be forever damned or forever saved. We love you, little Johnny, but we accept the fact that God might not love you, and that He may have plans to send you to hell for your future sins. If you do find yourself one day burning in hell because He hasn’t elected to save you, just remember that we will always love you, even if God hates you. Take comfort knowing that we are not like God. We will be in heaven forever only because we were unconditionally chosen for salvation before we were born. That would be the only reason that we won’t be in hell with you if you find yourself there. It won’t be because of anything we did. So also take comfort in knowing that. It may not seem fair, but who are we to judge God? So again, if you find yourself in hell, remember that we will always love you as we forever worship the God who loved us but who hated you, the God who sent His Son to die for us but not for you. Please, we ask, don’t let it bother you-if you find yourself in hell-that we love the God who hated you and showed you no mercy. We must accept the fact that God is sovereign, and He does what He pleases. But this last thing you have stated on your website about why god sends people to gas chambers and to abuse young children is a little puzzling? I thought god kind of loved people? guess i was wrong as you are a real scholar of the scriptures. Your quote Mr Piper just so others can see your heart: " God . . . brings about all things in accordance with his will. In other words, it isn’t just that God manages to turn the evil aspects of our world to good for those who love him; it is rather that he himself brings about these evil aspects for his glory (see Ex. 9:13-16; John 9:3) and his people’s good (see Heb. 12:3-11; James 1:2-4). This includes-as incredible and as unacceptable as it may currently seem-God’s having even brought about the Nazis’ brutality at Birkenau and Auschwitz as well as the terrible killings of Dennis Rader and even the sexual abuse of a young child . " Truth in love
WOW, do you lack understanding if that is what you understand him to be saying. Before making accusations, may suggest you study the Bible and see what God's perspective is. I suggest getting a concordance of Bible words like Strongs. Then, I would do a word study on predestination, foreordained, foreordination, elect , adoption, and purpose in relation to God's purpose. Also, the word "all" since it is a word you probably cling to Reconcile that word all the previous words. I would encourage you to also do a study on the word "call" and "draw and what" those words mean. Until then, I would stay away from criticizing and accusing John Piper. Of you don't like what the Bible teaches on the doctrine of election. Well, that is between you and God

@@tstjohn777 A woman can choose to let their baby live or die. Today the law gives a woman the right to abort her baby human being. The Calvinist god can choose to let a human soul live or die. The Calvinists god is a abortionist of souls. You Calvinists are sick, sick ,sick! You swallow the pride pill and fall for ..... 2 Corinthians 11:4 For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough. Truth in Love
Obedience signifies our abiding in Christ! We learn in James 2:19 that even the demons believe! Does that mean that the demons saved? How do we know if we believe then? In order to find out if we believe in Jesus we must believe His word is truth. HIS word is first, not the apostles, not Paul and not your pastor or priest HIS! We need to read the words of our Messiah and use THEM as the standard. In that remember Jesus also said: Do """"ALL""""" that Moses said. Matthew 23:1-3 In John 5:47 Jesus says "But if you dont believe in Moses writings, how will you believe in His! In Luke 16:31 "" If they dont listen to Moses & the prophets, they won't listen if someone rises from the dead"" Gee I wonder do you who rose from the dead that He was talking about? It comes down to this; if you dont accept Moses writings, or the prophets, you won't accept what Jesus says. Jesus ""never contradicted the Father therefore He never contradicted what Moses wrote. Jesus didn't start a new religion. If He did, the pharisees would've crucified Him for that! Remember they found no fault in Him!!! That means when they studied the writings of Moses there wasn't any contradiction with what He said and what the Father had Moses write down. He didn't teach a new religion He came to show us "The Way" to walk out the old one. Don't let Jesus say to you "" Depart from me you who practice lawlessness"" Instead believe His words """ If you love me keep my commandments"""" His commands are exactly the fathers commands. These very commands that Moses wrote!
Just remember Jesus went deeper than the law of Moses. Example Matt.5 27 “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
this kind of teaching will NEVER get old, praise the Lord

Keep watching Piper and buy some of his books. Aside from Scripture read of great men of God such as the Puritans, Piper, Spurgeon, etc.
Keep going he has a purposeful life for you and your.
It's what happens when you begin to realise the difference between religiosity and just pure faith
I pray your faith continues to grow and produce the fruit and that it hasn't died ❤🙏
