More update version in Christ❤. Genesis 35:16-29(The Death of Rachel and Isaac) "16 Then they journeyed from Bethel. When they were still some distance from Ephrath Rachel went into labor, and he had hard labor. 17 And when her labor was at its hardest, the midwife said to her, " Do not fear for you have another son." 18 And as her soul was departing( for she was dying), she called his name Ben-0ni; but his father called him Benjamin. 19 So Rachel❤ died, and she was buried on the way to Ephrath( that is, Bethlehem), 20 and Jacob set up a pillar over her tomb.

Matthew 23:13,15. (Mathew 23:13 and Matthw 23:15) Matthew 23:13,15. "13 But woe to you, Scribe and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut kingdom of heaven in people's faces. For you neither enter yourselves nor allow those who would enter to go in. 15 Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel across sea and land to make a single proselyte, and when he become a proselyte, you make him twice as much a child of hell as yourselves."( Matthew 23:13,15 ESV Study Bible)

Dr John Piper, can we revisit your assertion that life and freedom aren’t as important as being against the man God used to save millions of babies? Sun Tzu said that a wicked ruler will see his nation burned to the ground to rule over the ashes. Sun Tzu must have seen the dystopian future that is being ushered in by the Democrats, at the behest of pastors like yourself.

[@SaveTheImage]

Can you tell me who the man God used to save millions of babies?

[@Cocochantelle]

Democrats? Huh? I pray your view of the world can expand beyond blame one day

[@jesusistheanswer2074]

John Piper is now nor has ever believed or preached that abortion is ok, He calls it an abomination. You should not bear a false witness against him, repent and turn awareness to Jesus

[@Mando-d4k]

@@SaveTheImage Donald Trump defunded our abortions for the world program. Biden started it back up the day he got in office. He’s given over 2 billion dollars to a fund that not only pays for abortions directly, but also trains foreign abortion drs. Trump saved millions of lives; Biden aborts millions. In addition, there have been, in 2022 alone, 40,000 births (per the US Dept of labor statistics) that are alive because of Roe being reversed.

[@HearGodsWord]

​@@Mando-d4k Paul, the number of abortions went up after Roe ended. I guess Trump wasn't that successful after all. You n3ed to wake up to the fact Trump lost the election because of Trump and not because of John Piper.

Jesus is powerless on his own: All of the power that Jesus has comes from the one true God, the Father (2 Corinthians 5:18). Jesus is powerless without God. God GAVE all power and authority to his Son (Matthew 11:27; Matthew 28:18). It is God the Father who possessed Jesus in the beginning, before his works of old (Proverbs 8:22); It is God the Father that is the reason that Jesus lives, for it is God who raised Jesus from the dead (John 6:57, Romans 8:11); It is God the Father who teaches all things to Jesus (John 8:28); It is God the Father who commands Jesus to say and speak his commandments for everlasting life to us (John 8:28; John 12:48-50); As Jesus has told us, we are to serve and pray to God only (Matthew 6:9; Luke 4:8). Those who do not know the Father cannot know the Son, for it is the Son who spoke of the Father and came to finish his work (John 8:19; John 4:34).

Jesus isn't on his own, so your complaining fell down in its first line. You don't know who Jesus is.
