John Piper Sermons

The fight for life requires overcoming all kinds of obstacles to love, and that will only happen when we live by faith in future grace.

Every mishap, every setback, and every roadblock in your life is an opportunity for God to lavish you with sustaining grace.

Believing that the Bible is the Word of God is a gigantic event in the soul. Therefore God does not leave it merely to man.

Faith works through love. It becomes active and visible in the form of love that people can see.

John Piper | The Bible presents God as one who has all power and control over our world, all the way down to the tiniest molecule and the shortest fraction of a second.

Jesus Christ has released the merciful power of God by his sin-bearing death; and the Holy Spirit is applying it to our church.

We exist to spread a passion for the supremacy of God in all things for the joy of all peoples.

John Piper | God’s sovereignty means that he ordains everything that happens — including the fall of mankind.

The New Testament gives no hint that worship services and classes are the sum total of what church was supposed to be.

To give is not to buy. And that weekly crisis is utterly important to maintain.

John Piper | Providence is not just a doctrine for theologians to argue about, but an all-encompassing truth that ignites the joy of God’s people.

It dishonors God to treat him as a master in need of slave labor. What honors God is not slave labor, but childlike faith in his all-sufficiency.

God eagerly waits for his lost children to come home. When they do, he receives them with open arms and a glad heart.

Jonathan Edwards was used powerfully by God in the First Great Awakening both to promote and assess the revival in New England, as well as to leave behind a fruitful legacy of theological works that have greatly impacted the church.

Jesus eating with and receiving tax collectors and sinners displays God’s heart to seek and save the lost.

The thought of Jonathan Edwards, demonstrated through a handful of notable works, had a profound impact on John Piper’s life and ministry.

The Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost. He sought them, he received them, he ate with them, and he saved them.

We’ll never love like Jesus loved until we die to ourselves. But in that death, we’ll find more life than we even could have hoped.

You won’t discover freedom by indulging in whatever you want. True liberty begins when we submit our desires to God.
