+Tom Fisher..Thank you so much for responding to me. I Love you and I don't even know you. It is so wonderful to hear that someone has had the same experience as I have! I was beginning to wonder about me and the rest of the World! Jesus has brought me to Himself and Himself Alone. I Love it..but can find no one who understands until you. I have been through a "Job" experience to get here though. It has not been fun. I love your take on John Piper! He did bring you to a good conclusion! Everyone has been a false prophet for me..not just John Piper. One lady suggested that I had been "called out.". That is kind of how it feels. May Jesus Bless you! Thank You.
kathleen Wharton - may I suggest that you wait till Jesus tells you that you have been called out rather than the lady who said it to you otherwise your judgment of John Piper comes across as a contradiction. I am curious as to why you choose to come and listen to John Pipers sermons if you believe he is a false teacher.

+Debbie Ward..once I experienced the wonderful Help Jesus Gave me when I Obeyed His Sayings..I saw how valuable His Sayings were. I had gone to church my whole life and not one pastor ever taught me this. I guess it made me angry for me in the first place and then I became angry for Jesus. There He was..right there in Matthew..waiting to Help us..and everyone is going to Paul or Joseph Smith or some Saint or their pastor or their church. I thought I could help people see..but realize I cannot..if people will not even recognize and listen to Jesus..they are sure not going to listen to me. And this morning I realized..Jesus Forgave the Phraisees..so I too..must Forgive..everybody for ignoring the best Help ever Jesus can give and the solution to the whole world problems. It is not going to be easy. I only listen long enough to get a gist of where the pastor is going or sometimes I go by the title. I cannot stand to hear Jesus crucified again by yet another pastor.

There are things of far more import than having money. For the love of money is the root of all evil. What should it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Worship is a major deal--this video presents the reality of that. If not worshiping the Father through Christ, who is being worshiped? If no one or a false God, it's the devil.

Why do people think God wants them to physically worship Him? Physical worship was an old covenant religious practice of bowing down in adoration and praise, performed by those who believed God existed external to them and where God lived either up in the sky or in a temple somehow. Hence, man believed he existed in separation from God. This was the point the man of Israel had reached in his understanding. He had yet to grasp the reality that God is “within” man. Then why ...did God command man to worship Him? Well, for one thing man at that time was easily enticed into making images (gods) out of the things he held in fear and veneration (e.g. the elements) and bowing down before them. So what God instructed the Israelites to do was to construct a physical temple and through its symbolic worship, teach the true “temple of God made without hands”; the "living temple of the Spirit". The revelation unfolded through of Christ to the Apostle Paul, was that all are in God and God is in all and man is to “worship God in Spirit”. And how was this to be recognised? Through the leading of the Spirit indwelling him. God was said to “indwell” man because man’s Spirit and God’s Spirit are one and the same in nature and exist in union. Man's Spirit and God's Spirit are a oneness; Spirit with Spirit, conscious mind with conscious mind. Its, therefore, totally impossible for any disconnect to exist between man and God, irrespective of what man allows to enter his mind or not, and irrespective of whether he heeds the voice of the Spirit within or not. Thus, separation is merely an illusion. The reality is that you only have to THINK, and your thought is known instantaneously by the Divine Spirit that is God. The Divine is the principle of Life, the inner Light of Consciousness, it's your very own Higher Self in Spirit. When you become aware of your oneness of Spirit, then you understand why there is simply no need for physical worship, even though you can if you want to. You understand you are dwelling in God and God is dwelling in you (Jn 14:20; 17:3) and all your thoughts (with their love and any praise for God) are known instantly, as you are known. Imo, what Jesus meant when he spoke of a time when the Jews would "worship" the Father "in spirit and in truth" (Jn 4:23) is that the time would come when they would arrive at and experience this understanding. It is only in this context that he could have been using the word 'worship' (i.e. metaphorically) otherwise he contradicted himself.
It’s both we as humans were created to worship I mean for example just look at concerts especially from the old days rock bands and all of that people would wave with their hands swinging back-and-forth or holding a candle light it’s because that’s a form of warship they’re worshiping the music or the artist it’s in our DNA to literally worship physically even if it’s not God..
@@sofiabravo1994 Thats not evidence of worship ... its crowd enthusiasm. Don't confuse the flesh with the spirit. We wroship God IN SPIRIT and Spirit is Truth. Worship is a state of mind not swinging arms and hips and legs.

+festivity fun..Jesus gives us the "Real" Sermon on the Mount. I much prefer Jesus and i understand His just fine. I do not understand why people listen to clowns when they have the real thing right there in the bible. These religious men have all become false phrophets. Giving you their ideas..instead of telling you to go to the Source. Jesus Sermon on the Mount is beautiful and most people I have found don't even know it. So stay with your clown if you prefer. When you get to Heaven..You can say " I know John Piper!"
You know I just got the same revelation the other day Because of this guy. He said something like God might give up on you if you sin. I was like... what happened to I will never leave you or forsake you? Thats when God got after me and asked me why I was coming to preachers and not Him the Source. You are right and its about relationship with Jesus Christ knowing we are nothing without him but everything with him. I guess on the bright side John Piper can say " well at least I moved people closer to God in my bad teaching" lol.
Nothing wrong with listening to one of the Lord's servants. consider this: Ephesians 4:11-12 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelist; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
@@fishersofmen4727 Also..John 3:16 “For God So Loved the World that He gave His Only Begotten Son that whosoever Believeth in Him should Not perish but have everlasting life. For God sent Not His Son into the World to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be Saved.” It is our Belief that counts..Not whether we sin! We are all just people! God Knows we are going to sin!

If you are a follower of Jesus Christ..you will teach what Jesus taught. Jesus said.."Obey My Sayings and Seek ME for your Provision Everyday and the Father will Protect you from evil." this is not what John Piper teaches. He teaches the Gospel of Paul.. the "other way"..Jesus + Nothing. This is certainly Not What Jesus taught. And Jesus Said "Seek ME.". He did not say.."Seek John Piper who will teach you Paul's gospel..not Mine." you are listening to a false prophet.
Shaune Gregory Obeying Gods Commandments is NOT Works. Paul wasn’t even talking about Gods Commandments. He was talking about obeying the commandments of Men..the commandments the Pharisees made up. Jesus was continually correcting the Pharisees..and telling them to “Stop teaching for doctrine the commandments of men.” As the commandment you just spouted. Christians misinterpreted Paul and made a religion out of it. Such dummies. You need to read your bible better.
Shaune Gregory We can Keep Jesus Commandments! One of them is Forgiveness. I sure wish Christians would read what Jesus Said..instead of making Paul their god.
Shaune Gregory Because Christians don’t even know what Jesus Said. I have been so mislead by listening to Christians..I have learned not to. I spent a little time trying to help people be aware..but they hate me for it..so I have ceased. Please believe Whatever you want to. I Believe Jesus.
