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.

More quotes by John Piper
If you remove enjoyment of God from faith in God, it ceases to be faith.
John Piper
Marriage. The roots are deep. The covenant is solid. The love is sweet. Life is hard. And God is good.
John Piper
There is a war going on. All talk of a Christian's right to live luxuriously as a child of the King in this atmosphere sounds hollow - especially since the King himself is stripped for battle.
John Piper
Life is wasted if we do not grasp the glory of the cross, cherish it for the treasure that it is, and cleave to it as the highest price of every pleasure and the deepest comfort in every pain. What was once foolishness to us—a crucified God—must become our wisdom and our power and our only boast in this world.
John Piper
Sanctification is a community project.
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
Bad theology will eventually hurt people and dishonor God in proportion to its badness.
John Piper
The whole world lives for pleasure. The only difference is theirs is fleeting, while ours is forever in Jesus.
John Piper
No one will be able to rise to the magnificence of the missionary cause who does not feel the magnificence of Christ.
John Piper
The best news of the Christian gospel is that the supremely glorious Creator of the universe has acted in Jesus Christ's death and resurrection to remove every obstacle between us and himself so that we may find everlasting joy in seeing and savoring his infinite beauty.
John Piper
Don't marry so you can stop pursuing women. Marry so you can perfect the pursuit of ONE woman for a lifetime.
John Piper
Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn't.
John Piper
I am not a missionary, but I have wanted my life to count for the unreached peoples of the world.
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
The call of God does what the call of man cannot. It raises the dead.
John Piper
Isn't it ironic that today people say, 'If you know the love of God, you don't have to worry when you go on in sin.' But the apostle John said, 'If you know the love of God, you won't be able to go on in sin.'
John Piper
Sin is what you do when you are not satisfied in God.
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
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
Don't coast through life without a passion.
John Piper
