More quotes by John Piper
Whatever opposes prayer opposes the whole work of ministry.
John Piper
We need a Savior. Christmas is an indictment before it becomes a delight.
John Piper
God did not just overcome evil at the cross. He made evil serve the overcoming of evil. He made evil commit suicide in doing its worst evil.
John Piper
Our concern with truth is simply an echo of our concern with God .
John Piper
God is infinitely valuable. I can't think of anything that would have a greater impact on your life than for you to believe that.
John Piper
If truth does not lead to falling in love, it fails.
John Piper
Feeling loved by God means feeling glad not only that He crushed His Son so that I can be forgiven, but that He's crushing everything that takes away from my praising of the glory of His grace.
John Piper
Not grace to bar what is not bliss, Nor flight from all distress, but this: The grace that orders our trouble and pain, And then, in the darkness, is there to sustain.
John Piper
The call of God does what the call of man cannot. It raises the dead.
John Piper
When all your favorite preachers are gone, and all their books forgotten, you will have your Bible. Master it. MASTER IT!
John Piper
God created us to live with a single passion: to joyfully display his supreme excellence in all spheres of life. The wasted life is the life without this passion. God calls us to pray and think and dream and plan and work, not to be made much of, but to make much of him in every part of our lives.
John Piper
Don’t be surprised. There is nothing new under the sun. Only endless repackagings
John Piper
Grace is power, not just pardon.
John Piper
Missions is the overflow of our delight in God because missions is the overflow of God's delight in being God.
John Piper
We weren't meant to be somebody--we were meant to know Somebody
John Piper
Bad theology dishonors God and hurts people. Churches that sever the root of truth may flourish for a season, but they will wither eventually or turn into something besides a Christian church.
John Piper
When the heart no longer feels the truth of hell, the gospel passes from good news to simply news
John Piper
The wonder of marriage is woven into the wonder of the gospel of the cross of Christ, and the message of the cross is foolishness to the natural man, and so the meaning of marriage is foolishness to the natural man.
John Piper
If you want to be a conduit for God's grace, you don't have to be lined with gold. Copper will do.
John Piper
The key to Christian living is a thirst and hunger for God. And one of the main reasons people do not understand or experience the sovereignty of grace and the way it works through the awakening of sovereign joy is that their hunger and thirst for God is so small.
John Piper
