    Humility is they key to solving this. Humility is dying to self, and living to serve God and People.

    Thank you JESUS! A message of truth! So many have been lost to the lie that has grown out of ignorance.

    You begin to easily discern between those two different Christians. I mean, I can't have normal conversations with certain kids at my school because I'm not interested in using God to justify worldly behavior. This video is the truth in your face and I love it!

    All that is more important that God is idolatry. We follow the Gospel ir the man. "But seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well" 💓 Mathew 6:33. Hallelujah 💕👆💞

    I love Pastor John. I really do Where I live you don't hear preaching like this. I covet preaching like this It stirs my soul I live around a lot of name it and claim it type churches. Sadly many I sit home and read the Bible and pray. Pray for me.

      Good solid preaching can be hard to find. Don't give up though. A tool that I've used that was very helpful was the church finder on sermon audio. Here is the link to it: www.sermonaudio.com/sermonssource.asp?zipsearch=true&zip=&ignore=&maxmiles=120&filter= There are churches out there that still preach the gospel in its fullness. Will be praying that God leads you where He would have you.

    ********Sir John. Piper you are highly appreciated, because there was no other talks other than you describing the highest Spirit of them all GOD, and that lovable, penetrating heart to heart full of dignity, equality, that all humans with different cultures , aspects and beliefs all these barriers for our TRUE identity . Those Barriers pulled us away from equilibrium from, divine love all these useless cultural that made us superior to each other acting with all injustice with power when we can , making us fighting and killing and terminating life on earth for the sake of past stories, legends , things that happened thousands of years ago, and the whole essence of these historical matters was to human unity , . The tendency towards never letting go of any kind of aspects, attachments, and cultures we all know this is what destroyed us . This should be wiped out, dissolved when we are in the {PRESENCE OF GOD} as you lovably described God with all kinds of gracefulness and Equality, and we are all children of God , where God light inside us used , practiced in our daily life with all detailed actions between us all on planet earth . . Yet this video of 6:23 duration, tends to oppose that divine ultimate equal love , you see I am a Muslim, where i purely with integrity open mind I respectfully Went over my religious And almost all others ,deeply and never to pre- judge any thing without getting to comprehend alllllll aspects and deepest, metaphors and practical meanings of anything . The more and more I Realize the ultimate fact of them all we alllllllllll share the same gracious GOD . Let all ur talks reachable and welcoming all humans , as long as your platform , the way you talk, you emphasize, you pronounce the truth about God, highly penetrating and truly imposing that I feel kind of changed, we all desire. let it be for ALL. Let’s not dwell around this and that let it be open with all kindness and acceptance thank you . Thank you 🪷

    I don't get why people complicates things. God is so big. We are to seek him and rest under His wing. The rest are minor things which he is able To provide for us once we've rested onto His presence. Psalms 34:10

      Dion Carter he's saying that it used to be socially acceptable to be a Christian/believe in the Bible etc,. And it has been taken for granted. Now he's saying that increasingly so, we will become more and more alienated from the culture as things become more secular and other world views become more mainstream. Yes there is hope as long as you make sure that as a Christian you stick to the truth and live your life in a way to honor the work of salvation that Jesus has done. This was all foretold in the Bible.

    Very distracting and annoying background music. Can't people listen to what he has to say without it?
