More quotes by John Piper
Humble us, O God, under your mighty hand, and let us rise, not as professionals, but as witnesses and partakers of the sufferings of Christ.
John Piper
In demanding our praise God is demanding the completion of our pleasure (in him).
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
CHRISTIAN LIVING MOVES from what God has freely done for us in Christ to what we should freely do for others.
John Piper
The root cause of abortion is the failure to be satisfied in God as our supreme love. And, for all the great legal work that needs to be done to protect human life, the greatest work that needs to be done is to spread a passion - a satisfaction for the supremacy of God in all things. That's our calling.
John Piper
We are not as Christ-centered and cross-cherishing as we should be, because we do not ponder the truth that everything good, and everything bad that God turns for the good, was purchased by the sufferings of Christ.
John Piper
Marriage. The roots are deep. The covenant is solid. The love is sweet. Life is hard. And God is good.
John Piper
Lives of faith are the great mirror of the dependability of God.
John Piper
Marriage is not mainly about being or staying in love. It’s mainly about telling the truth with our lives. It’s about portraying something true about Jesus Christ and the way He relates to his people. It is about showing in real life the glory of the gospel.
John Piper
Our concern with truth is simply an echo of our concern with God .
John Piper
Reading is more important to me than eating.
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
Redemption is not perfection. The redeemed must realize their imperfections.
John Piper
Wise people know that all their money belongs to God.
John Piper
The greatest enemy of hunger for God is not poison but apple pie. It is not the banquet of the wicked that dulls our appetite for heaven, but endless nibbling at the table of the world. It is not the X-rated video, but the prime-time dribble of triviality we drink in every night.
John Piper
The cost of food in the kingdom is hunger for the Bread of Life.
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
The deepest longing of the human heart is to know and enjoy the glory of God. We were made for this.
John Piper
Wimpy worldviews make wimpy Christians. And wimpy Christians won’t survive the days ahead.
John Piper
Why Christians do what they do is just as important as what they do. Bad motives ruin good acts.
John Piper
