More quotes by John Piper
Blind people don't decide to see. Jesus says, 'See!' and they see.
John Piper
God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.
John Piper
When the heart no longer feels the truth of hell, the gospel passes from good news to simply news
John Piper
God loves to show mercy . . . His anger must be released by a stiff safety lock, but His mercy has a hair trigger.
John Piper
Why Christians do what they do is just as important as what they do. Bad motives ruin good acts.
John Piper
Grace is power, not just pardon.
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
The Gospel is not how people get to heaven. The Gospel is how people get to God.
John Piper
It is about the greatness of God, not the significance of man. God made man small and the universe big to say something about himself.
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
My joy grows with every soul that seeks the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Remember, you have one life. That’s all. You were made for God. Don’t waste it.
John Piper
The key that unlocks the treasure chest of God's peace is faith in the promises of God.
John Piper
True worship comes from people who are deeply emotional and who love deep and sound doctrine. Strong affections for God rooted in thrush are the bone and marrow of biblical worship.
John Piper
Forgiveness costs us nothing. All our costly obedience is the fruit, not the root, of being forgiven. That's why we call it grace.
John Piper
Whatever opposes prayer opposes the whole work of ministry.
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
God seldom calls us for an easier life, but always calls us to know more of him and drink more deeply of His sustaining grace.
John Piper
The only answer in these modern times, as in all other times, is the blood of Christ. When our conscience rises up and condemns us, where will we turn? We turn to Christ. We turn to the suffering and death of Christ—the blood of Christ. This is the only cleansing agent in the universe that can give the conscience relief in life and peace in death.
John Piper
In demanding our praise God is demanding the completion of our pleasure (in him).
John Piper
The point is not that the resurrection is the price paid for our sins. The point point is that the resurrection proves the death of Jesus is an all-sufficient price. If Jesus did not rise from the dead, then his death was a failure, God did not vindicate his sin-bearing achievement, and we are still in our sins.
