Ha I’m sorry but this is so dumb and is sad people take his snake words for truth but it’s also pretty amusing

[@cliffkriz1863]

@@crisjohansen3476 repent of you sins and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Flee from the wrath to come, flee to Christ who is a refuge

Thank you Pastor John Piper. learn lot

[@jewishbride5010]

Heavenly father, according to this sermon of your word I agree my body is a living sacrifice for the kingdom of God and Kingdom of Heavens for all days and eternity! In the name and blood of Jesus Christ, Yeshua: amen. Annelies Bakker, the Netherlands.

[@lchampag]

Romans 12 is powerful. Starting off with verse 1. Everything we need to in Christ and heaven bound. John Piper and present it well. 🙏 God bless him.

[@hasadara1]

The prayer was indeed beautiful! However, the statement "it is not merciful to make people more comfortable on the way to hell" stood out to me. AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! When it is all said and done we as Chrostians are called to be a part of the process of the redemption of souls. The things we do or do not do with our bodies, minds, lives in totality will either lead us to destruction or glorify God and lead to everlasting life. The life of denial of the flesh is a small price to pay in return for the promises set before us by the living God. Christ has indeed presented us with covering. However, it is up to us as individuals to continue to submit to and make use of that covering. The Lord is to be praised and obeyed! 👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐

Great thoughts "living sacrifice" man what a challenge!

[@elfrieda65]

To present your bodies to God,is desires more of God.

[@randallblann1416]

That's why my body and mind and heart must be filled with the Spirit.And my soul my Spirit must be filled with the Holy Spirit and my conscience and The Blood of Jesus Christ and purge by the Fire of God of Jesus Christ to keep me clean and to be turned to Jesus Christ.And that is why when people have completely turned to Jesus Christ to conform to his Word and be ministered to and hear the gospel.

[@lcdeyoung2755]

I pray during this time of Covid that we would truly understand this, that we as followers of Christ would seek to make Jesus known and press on toward the goal, that we would be seekers of God rather than seekers of comfort, and that we would demonstrate the mercy that has been lavished upon us-even when we were yet sinners. Bless you, John Piper.

[@johnman8554]

they had no love for the truth Bible say.. how can you have zero love for the truth and love God in same time, it has literally zero sense.. remember Revelation says they perished because they worshiped a lie. Jesus is truth. cant dine at table of demons and at table of the Lord.

[@randallblann1416]

This body of mine is the temple of God.The temple of the Holy Spirit.

[@randallblann1416]

Ministry and prayer both the hearing of the Word and the Holy Spirit and the Blood of Jesus Christ and the Fire of God.

[@andrewlyons2164]

Man this is good preaching

[@randallblann1416]

And when there is no turning to the flesh then there is no living in it.And the power of God in the Holy Spirit takes over.

[@randallblann1416]

And the renewing of the Mind and is to not be conform to this world and renewing of heart is a new heart.

[@pamelasimon1904]

Thank you for keeping it REAL.

[@strawberrykoolaid124]

Such an amazing sermon! Praise God

[@JOHNWALLACE.]

This is a wonderful sermon this morning 🌄. 😇

[@dannegeorge1001]

Thank you Pastor Piper for your knowledgeable way that was understandable to newbies like me. I watch you often. I feel like I need more and more teaching to make up for lost time.

[@tannerdavis746]

1 Peter 2:2-3

[@scottcarter1689]

Indeed Danne... That is another mark of the new birth! More and more understanding is absolutely essential... and though maybe a great deal of time has gone by before your Awakening, but it's less about lost time and more about effectual remaining time (similar but different in perspective)- for, apparently God awakened you at the optimal time for velocity! ...(Ecclesiastes 10:10) .... a "whettened" blade is the parallel of a whettened appetite. Many people have been in church for 20 years without effect... and there is certainly less and less time remaining. God bless

[@randallblann1416]

That's why Jesus told those women in the Bible to go and sin no more.

[@randallblann1416]

And the Word of God.

[@wongsikiongwongsikiong4296]

Do not grieve the Holy Spirit for our body is the temple of God .

[@mapitsorangaka1030]

Wow, accomplish obedience to the word with your bodily members, our bodies is a living sacrifice, even in death and in life, acceptable to God which is a spiritual worship, bodily behavior acceptable, pleasing to God, this is spiritual worship, this is sacrifice.

[@randallblann1416]

The Blood cleanses.And the person does not participate in fleshly matters because temptation has no hold when turning to the Gospel and being filled with the Spirit.Thats also why there is power in the Spirit and grace of God and people are in their own body and of the Spirit.

[@randallblann1416]

No body contact for 32 years.That is my life and I have no flesh in my life of any kind.Abstinent.

[@randallblann1416]

Celibacy is no body contact belonging to the Spirit not the flesh.

[@benwalsh9963]

Notice how he doesn't say that the faith of Abraham is where salvation comes. He is a false teacher

[@cliffkriz1863]

Abraham had faith in the messiah and God's promises (which were to send saviour who is Jesus Christ) you should read Isaiah and pray Yahweh open your eyes to the truth.

[@brandonwilliams6859]

Amen
