John Piper Sermons

The new birth does not give us a mere temporary resuscitation. It gives indestructible, imperishable life.

Our souls need Scripture just like our bodies need oxygen: moment by moment, every day. If we learn to live apart from it, we will surely die.

When we pray, not only does God get more glory, but in his glorification, we get a fuller and lasting joy.

If any human is to be saved from their sin and from the righteous wrath of God, the Son of God had to become human for our regeneration.

Dead men need one thing before anything else can happen: They must be made alive. They must be born again.

Listen Now

If God did not make us alive to his grace and glory, we would remain dead — completely enslaved to our sins.

Being born again is not the improvement of your old nature, but the creation of a new one.

John Piper | In the new birth, God takes dead souls and resuscitates them to new life in Christ. This is not a work of our own, but the grace of God.

The new birth produces new desires and new behaviors. An unchanged life is not a born-again life.

When the glory of Christ is partially obscured and the assurance of the soul is weakened, the costly, sacrificial labor of love is hindered.

John Piper | If pastors are going to labor for the joy of their people, as Paul says in 2 Corinthians 1:24, then they must first make it their priority to pursue their own joy in the Lord.
