More quotes by John Piper
In our proud love affair with ourselves we pour contempt, whether we know it or not, on the worth of God's glory. As our pride pours contempt upon God's glory, His righteousness obliges Him to pour wrath upon our pride.
John Piper
All the money needed to send and support an army of self-sacrificing, joy-spreading ambassadors is already in the church.
John Piper
The importance of prayer rises in proportion to the importance of the things we should give up in order to pray
John Piper
Do not be more devoted to your own brain than you are to the Bible.
John Piper
Faith is born and sustained by the Word of God, and out of faith grows the flower of joy.
John Piper
O, God of wonder, enlarge my capacity to be amazed at what is amazing, and end my attraction to the insignificant.
John Piper
If you must choose between loving someone and acting so that they feel loved, always choose to love them.
John Piper
Christians belive in a sovereign God who never says Oops. We believe that all our days ... are divine strokes on the canvas of our lives by the Master Artist who certified his skill, his power, and his love in the Masterpiece of Calvary. If you doubt His skill in painting your life - look at the Calvary
John Piper

John Piper
I am not a missionary, but I have wanted my life to count for the unreached peoples of the world.
John Piper
If grace is to be free - which is the very meaning of grace - we cannot view it as something to be repaid.
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
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
Adjust your doctrine - or just minimize doctrine - to attract the world, and in the very process of attracting them, lose the radical truth that alone can set them free.
John Piper
Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn't.
John Piper
Great waves, and blaze with fire like them.In beauty, but do not condemn,The seamen who embark and fail,But only those who will not sail.
John Piper
You can't make yourself saved. This is very threatening to people, even Christians, because of what it seems to say about freedom.
John Piper
God aims to exalt Himself by working for those who wait for Him.
John Piper
The key to praying with power is to become the kind of persons who do not use God for our ends but are utterly devoted to being used for His ends.
John Piper
If at the cross every sin was covered, Satan's mouth is shut. He has no weapon. He can gum you but his fangs are gone.
John Piper
