    What if Jesus is just a being so likeable, and his presence so desirable, that we fantasize an intimately close relationship with him as our Creator, yet we are actually in a relationship with a CONCEPT that fills our desires as humans for care, love, peace, power over "evil" ???

    How are we able to be sure that we have come to KNOW Jesus?
    1 John 2:3-4 says

    3 And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we keep his commandments.
    4 Whoever says “I know him” but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
    So, the Bible clearly says that whoever says they KNOW Him but does not keep His commandments(plural) is a LIAR!! Plain and simple.
    You do not know Him, but I know Him. If I said I did not know Him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know Him, and I keep His word.
    The gospel that is taught to many people today has been reduced down to just "faith alone". This false gospel of "faith alone" has made following the commandments of Christ null and void. Obeying His commandments have been eliminated from the gospel and have been made subsequent and optional to salvation. Walking in the Spirit has been made optional as well. This false gospel of "faith alone" changes what Jesus said in Matthew 7:14 - For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
    Instead of following the biblical teaching on salvation in Christ, they follow this false gospel which tells them that they can be saved by "faith alone", apart from having to keep the commandments of Christ.
    By teaching that we do NOT need to keep the commandments(plural) of Christ as the gospel, the saving power of the gospel has been neutralized. The end result is that millions of people have been deceived by the devil's masterpiece into thinking they have eternal life in Christ when they actually do not.

    The ever-sanctimonious Dr John Piper offers up a dystopian future. How so? He believes that good law is negated if it comes from a flawed lawmaker. Joe Rigney stated the other day that we should “pass righteous laws that teach what is good and discourage what is evil”. And how is this to be done when Piper states unequivocally that laws protecting life and freedom are not as “precious” as being against a man who did more to promote righteous law than any other politician in history?

      @@vdlresort The man? Trump. The laws? Trump steadfastly refused to give one nickel to our global abortion program. Biden has given 2.4 billion, funding millions of abortions. While not a law per se, it was the most righteous policy imaginable. In addition, God used Trump to overturn Roe, and thereby allowing the states to outlaw abortion. Trump also had a spate of executive orders that insured religious liberty. He also reversed several Obama mandates that forced businesses doing business with the feds to have a pro transgender ideology. He also had a foreign policy that didn’t provoke war (of which we now fund two).

      Many saw him when he was on earth
      Many followed him
      One betrayed him
      Another denied him
      Many deserted him
      We today know of him
      Thru scripture and salvation
      However his spirit guides
      And teaches us even if
      We can't see him.personally
      Until the resurrection!

      Only in a worldly way. If he really had known Jesus, he wouldn't have betrayed him. Probably.

    Piper, do you ever worry that your over-the-top invective against Donald Trump could be be dog-whistle to violence? If being anti-Trump is more “precious” than life and freedom? You tell me. I hope for your sake that Trump remains safe despite continued threats. The guilt you would have would be horrible.
    I’ve tried in vain to look for a parallel statement from the right and I come up empty handed. Can you help me? Has any conservative ever stated that being against a particular candidate is more important than freedom and even life itself?

      Paul, this wasn't John Piper. You're more concerned with Trump than you are with Jesus, which is more proof of your idolatry
