Prayer is the open admission ...

Prayer is the open admission that without Christ we can do nothing. And prayer is the turning away from ourselves to God in the confidence that He will provide the help we need. Prayer humbles us as needy and exalts God as wealthy

John Piper 465 quotes

If God's love for his childre...

If God's love for his children is to be measured by our health, wealth, and comfort in this life, God hated the apostle Paul.

John Piper 465 quotes

The key that unlocks the trea...

The key that unlocks the treasure chest of God's peace is faith in the promises of God.

John Piper 465 quotes

You may be going through thin...

You may be going through things right now that are painfully preparing you for some precious service to Jesus and to his people. When a person strikes rock bottom with a sense of nothingness or helplessness, he may find that he has struck the Rock of Ages

John Piper 465 quotes

Whenever the strength of God ...

Whenever the strength of God is not recognized as the source of our strength, we are breaking the First Commandment: Do not have any gods before me.

John Piper 465 quotes

The bloodline of Jesus is thi...

The bloodline of Jesus is thicker, deeper, stronger than the bloodline of race, ethnicity and family.

John Piper 465 quotes

God was alive when this unive...

God was alive when this universe exploded into existence. He was alive when Socrates drank his poison. He was the living God when William Bradford governed Plymouth Colony. He was the living God in 1966 when Thomas Altizer proclaimed him dead and Time magazine absolutely absurdly put it on the front cover.

John Piper 465 quotes

The saving love of God is his...

The saving love of God is his doing whatever must be done, at great cost to himself, and for the least deserving, so that he might enthrall them with what will make them supremely happy forever, namely, himself.

John Piper 465 quotes

As much as we can, let's defe...

As much as we can, let's defend the truth by pointing to what the apostles taught, and let's call out sin by pointing to the inconsistencies between what we say we believe and what we do.

John Piper 465 quotes

God gives life and he takes life. Everybody who dies, dies because God wills that they die.

John Piper 465 quotes

Human beings were put on the ...

Human beings were put on the planet to depend upon their Creator and to worship their Creator at every point in every sphere of culture.

John Piper 465 quotes

God is not beholden to us at ...

God is not beholden to us at all. He doesn't owe us anything.

John Piper 465 quotes

Whenever your heart starts to...

Whenever your heart starts to be anxious about the future, preach to your heart and say, 'Heart, who do you think you are to be afraid of the future and nullify the promise of God? No, heart, I will not exalt myself with anxiety. I will humble myself in peace and joy as I trust this precious and great promise of God - He cares for me.'

John Piper 465 quotes

Wimpy worldviews make wimpy Christians. And wimpy Christians won’t survive the days ahead.

John Piper 465 quotes

Our deeds are not the basis o...

Our deeds are not the basis of our salvation, they are the evidence of our salvation. They are not foundation, they are demonstration.

John Piper 465 quotes

Life is too short, too precio...

Life is too short, too precious, too painful to waste on worldly bubbles that burst

John Piper 465 quotes

What is sin? It is the glory ...

What is sin? It is the glory of God not honored. The holiness of God not reverenced. The greatness of God not admired. The power of God not praised. The truth of God not sought. The wisdom of God not esteemed. The beauty of God not treasured. The goodness of God not savored. The faithfulness of God not trusted. The commandments of God not obeyed. The justice of God not respected. The wrath of God not feared. The grace of God not cherished. The presence of God not prized. The person of God not loved. That is sin.

John Piper 465 quotes

A Christian is not a person w...

A Christian is not a person who believes in his head the teachings of the Bible. Satan believes in his head the teachings of the Bible! A Christian is a person who has died with Christ, whose stiff neck has been broken, whose brazen forehead has been shattered, whose stony heart has been crushed, whose pride has been slain, and whose life is now mastered by Jesus Christ.

John Piper 465 quotes

Bitterness about your parents...

Bitterness about your parents’ brokenness will kill you. Be the grace-filled end of generational sin in your family.

John Piper 465 quotes

But whatever you do, find the...

But whatever you do, find the God-centered, Christ-exalting, Bible-saturated passion of your life, and find your way to say it and live for it and die for it. And you will make a difference that lasts. You will not waste your life.
