      He fell into a ditch a long time ago, and he calls it "Christian Hedonism." That is an oxymoron and a tremendous error to misuse words and conflate similar words with varying meanings to push his emotionally driven mysticism theology. He's been leading people into unbiblical error for years but coats it in ambiguity and the winsome ole grandpa act. He's actually more in line with Rome than he is Protestantism because his actions and theology deny the sufficiency of Scripture for a cathartic quasi-antinomian mysticism driven by feelings rather than a faith driven duty to Christ to pursue holiness - regardless of feelings, emotions, or any other spurious notions. Take a closer assessment of his theology, and you'll start realizing it's erroneous.

    Jon, I know your were looking to forgo this one but glad you did give it a drive by. Repetition is important for those people who aren’t in some large part devoted to this stuff by vocation. Your vocation (calling) is valuable to all of us and your talking through things helps teach and edify us all; we all need the repetition and I know that at times it must become trying or boring. There is a value that your diligent efforts bring to the body; when you see one more person ‘get it’ or come to better develop their worldview, et al; that is God’s usefulness of your faithfulness become manifest in the rest of us. That’s what proper vocation should do; point to Christ! Hang in there my friend.
    In my estimation (with over a quarter century in human intelligence and as an operator functioning as a Marine Corps Officer), I would submit to you that John Piper has largely drowned in his passions. His ‘feeeelingsss’ have manifested a divergent path with his theology, but it eludes him because he sees it as a parallel. But the slow creep of half a degree puts you miles off your target when extrapolated. You’re absolutely right, the ‘hedonistic’ epistemology has co-opted and sadly compromised John’s ability to clearly examine, lead, or return to a centered honesty that’s divorced from the parts he added to the gospel born of his intellect and compassion. He’s found exactly what he said he was seeking years ago, but he passed the station named “Joy” and his epistemology is in fact corrupted as you also state. I’ve read John for nearly two decades as you have, but in recent years my reading and listening have actually occupied a raised eyebrow “what’s actually happening here” purpose. I’m not saying his piety is built on pride, but the aim of his piety has taken it out off of what would be a biblically sound worldview. Most notably, I he’s lost his grasp on the full complimentary host of God’s attributes and his revelation. Love you brother, Keep rocking, and Happy Thanksgiving.
    Semper Fidelis, Shannon

      What is so special about John MacArthur? He seems like a curmudgeon to me. He was respectful while being interviewed by Ben Shapiro. I was curious because our nephew and his brother in law were studying MacArthur’s work. My nephew let me know it was not for women so I haven’t even tried to listen to him. When he insisted on opening “his” church, I think it was too early. Our church had services for a month or so on-line but now we are back in person. Many of the congregation have been tested or have had covid or have been vaccinated now. The cushions have been placed on every other bench. We know that’s where we should sit, leaving every other bench empty. There is somebody to take our temperature and offer us gel before we enter. The pastor has asked people not to make fun of those who still prefer to wear masks, even during the service. I usually wear one as I enter and leave.

    As a 53 year old Christian white man (by GOD's providential sovereign will/decision/design)- who grew up being a racist (due to my environment and neighborhood) and then over time through having personal friendships with non white people, and of course finally overcoming this sin when I came to have a saving faith in Jesus Christ- it astounds me that Christians do not understand that our identity is in Jesus Christ first and foremost and not in the skin color that GOD (through His providential sovereign will) chose for us from the beginning of time. When I hear pastors like Dr. John Piper (who I used to deeply respect) talk about this issue of racism in the manner that the does I just want to tell him that his focus is completely on the wrong things/areas and that he needs to reread the N.T. Bible passages about the church being one in Christ (see Romans 12:4-5, 1 Corinthians 12:12-13, Galatians 3:27-29, and Colossians 3:11). I also wonder how many sermons he has preach over the years telling his congregation to focus first and foremost on the Gospel of Jesus Christ and everything else within our Christian lives and churches will naturally fall into place. If you are white and do not struggle with the sin of racism then this is a non issue for you. Which means that it should be a non issue for Dr. John Piper as well and he should be very comfortable and confident in that because I am- even though I used to be a racist. Unless of course he struggles with the sin of racism then that is another issue.

      Hey Michael,
      First, I want to thank you for your honest response. Secondly, I am a 55-year-old Latino who grew up in the “Hood”, the Humboldt Park area of Chicago’s Westside. I grew up having racist attitudes towards whites and blacks, mainly because of my gang affiliation. I didn’t experience systemic racism, I experienced full on racism from both white and blacks which mostly took the form of a physical altercations; either chasing whites and blacks or being chased by whites and blacks. I engaged in racial slur name-calling and also received it in return. However, as you eloquently stated it wasn’t more knowledge it wasn’t more education, but it was my salvation in Jesus Christ and the renewing of my mind that led me out of the sin of racism, bitterness, and hatred that’s was so deeply embedded in my soul. When I speak out against CRT, I am called a Race Trader, an Uncle Tom, or Sell Out. I find myself a “minority” within the minority group that CRT/Intersectionality labels me - quite the irony.

      @@rafaelcolon5109 You truly are my brother in Christ.
      I will tell you that after speaking with, and being around, many different people of all different types/kinds of cultures, races, ethnicity’s, and skin colors racism is problem in all of these different people groups. It may be more prevalent in some over others, but still it is a problem. We just disguise it under the word “nationalism.”
      This sin problem of racism started first with Adam and Eves first sin that was then transferred and imputed onto all of mankind. And then after Noah and the Biblical flood, Noah’s 3 sons then scattered throughout the many different regions of the world and this was the beginning of all of the different cultures, races, ethnicity’s, and skin colors; which naturally lead to the sin of racism.
      I understand why non believers do not understand this because their hearts/minds are still enslaved to sin and naturally (because of their sinful nature) do not know and understand this Biblical, historical truth. But what amazes me is those who claim to be followers and disciples of Jesus Christ, who should know the Biblical history account of mankind and sin, have fallen for, and have had their hearts/minds deceived by, this lie from satan.
      I spoke to one brother in Christ 3 years ago at a pastors conference about this issue of racism (and this brother is an American pastor and his father and mother immigrated to the USA from Nigeria, Africa) and he attempted to tell me that (we) white people are the biggest racists. He even then lead the conversation to Adolf Hitler and was basically telling me that only Adolf Hitler could happen in western white cultures. He said this because I told him that the sins of racism and slavery have been prevalent throughout the history of mankind, and in every culture, going back to Adam and Eves first sin).
      He obviously does not know his history very well, nor his Bible, because we can find Adolf Hitler’s in many different cultures throughout the history of mankind.
      Because we were at a pastors conference, and he was one of the key speakers, I just walked away from the conversation because for one I was astounded that he would think this way and secondly because I knew that this conversation was about to turn into a nasty argument.
      I love you brother and I hope and pray that you and your family have a blessed Christmas season celebrating the birth of our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ.
      GOD bless.

    I always appreciate your videos and feel you are always pretty solid in your biblical viewpoints and stands.
    Regarding all off these cries of systemic racism I personally believe it's part of the big lie that Satan is using in these days. Most people (of any race) will say in their day to day lives they do not see examples of racism. Sure there are racists. There are racists in every race, every political persuasion. But they are not the norm. I feel it is lazy logic, poor critical thinking, to assume every negative interaction between humans of different races is due to racism. This lie was used greatly when Obama was President. If you didn't like his politics or his policies they cried racism. Ridiculous. Most conservatives would have been happy to see Condoleeza Rice or Allen West or a number of other black individuals as President. Crying racism was just a lazy excuse for not being able to better defend bad policies. A law enforcement officer shooting a black man that is Fighting, resisting arrest and armed is not automatically racist. Abuse of power is not necessarily racist just because the one with power and the one abused were different races. It is more likely a person that tends to abuse power and they would abuse that power against anyone, no matter the race. If a black person assumes every disagreement, every negative experience, if the other person is white, is negative before of racism that's insane. If you can have the same negative interactions with those of your own race it only follows that it's possible to have the same negative interactions with people of different races. I refuse to own systemic racism. It's a lie.

As with all of us, even an intellectual can be used of God when he has been redeemed and mounted by Jesus; Matthew 21:5
    “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold your King is coming to you, Humble, and mounted on a donkey, Even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”
    However, it appears that John Piper does not remember what Paul taught: Colossians 2:8
    See to it that there is no one who takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception in accordance with human tradition, in accordance with the elementary principles of the world, rather than in accordance with Christ.
    Has John Piper opted to be an intellectual first? This “critical race theory” in simply the philosophy of men. What happened John Piper?

That's just reality. I oppose CRT as neo-separatism, and I reject any ideology that elevates race to a place of unwarranted importance, particularly in the body of Christ. But none of that means that I get to reject facts that don't fit my narrative, whatever it is. If others want to warp those facts into a heresy, I'll contend with the heresy.

    Jon, you said (around 18:30) that John MacArthur believes that "essentially, the sons of God were angels who procreated with (wo)men." That is not what MacArthur believes. He believes that the sons of God were fallen angels who demonically possessed men and that these "men" had demonic sex with women.
    MacArthur Study Bible, 2006
    • Gen 6:2 Note, "To procreate physically, they had to possess human, male bodies."
    • 2 Pe 2:4 Note, "angels when they sinned. These angels, according to Jude 6, 'did not keep their own domain,' i.e., they entered men who promiscuously cohabited with women."
    • Jude 6 Note, "angels who did not keep. This apostasy of fallen angels is described in Ge 6:1-3 as possessing men who then cohabited with women."
    Nonetheless, I get your point; those who agree with JM on most core issues do not necessarily agree with JM on everything. Likewise, SJW's and CRT proponents do not agree on everything, but that does not mean that they are not SJW's and CRT proponents.
    If someone believes the core tenets of CRT derived from the definition (you gave an excellent definition), then he or she is a proponent of CRT regardless of how much they claim to disagree on side issues. Interestingly, Piper begins his discussion on the importance of definitions only to ignore CRT's definition entirely in Part 1. He even says in Part 2 that we need "to get our definitions clear up front." He then quotes some of CRT's goals without ever truly giving a concise definition up front or anywhere else. Consequently, he is baffled by some of the conclusions derived by CRT regarding homosexuality and Biblical inerrancy.

    Racial identity work to do? That's anti-Gospel and anti-Christ.
    For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh- though I myself have reason for confidence in the flesh also. If anyone else thinks he has reason for confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the law, a Pharisee; as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to righteousness under the law, blameless. But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith- that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, that by any means possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead.

    My opinion is that John Piper at bottom does not understand the nature of sin and therefore does not really understand the full nature of the gospel and the mystery of the church. To give any credit to CRT is to say that the world has some insight into the true nature of sin. The fact is that the unbelieving world and many professing Christians do not take seriously that until a person, regardless of skin color or culture, really believes on Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, they are both lost to God and dead in trespasses and sins. CRT is really a denial of the biblical truth about our sinful and lost condition. The world and its desires (including a desire to bypass the necessity of individual salvation and redemption through Christ) are passing away, but he that does the will of God abides for eternity. The apostle John also stated that "the whole world lies in the wicked one."
    John Piper apparently does not accept that the unbeliever is lost and is blind to his rebellion against God. So then, in his view, we must some how address the concerns of a christ rejecting world and its system of thought. This only obscures the true nature of the human condition before God and the righteous claim the Creator and Savior God has on mankind through His son Jesus Christ.

      @@GhanaboyPharmD Actually, he has CRT grasped very well. He is not doing a lecture on CRT, simply pointing out the danger of our Christian leaders engaging the principles of CRT in their attempts to explain or reveal racial inequalities or injustices. He is indeed using the term appropriately and in context. We all fully understand what he is talking about.

    I've never cared for that whimpy, whiny voice, and have always thought he was over rated.

      @Caleb P I guess he didn't mean anything when he said that, since he didn't say that.
      The word (πραεις) is meek, not weak; and it does not connote whimpy and whiny, quite the opposite, in fact. It connotes one who does not "need" to be gentle, because he can totally kick some butt, but chooses, in obedience, to be gentle instead. Meek certainly does not leave room for a man to allow his wife to be assaulted.
      You are correct to use the weak, though, in the sense that Piper is a weak man. He isn't going to stand by and permit his wife to sexually assaulted because he's meek. He's going to do that because he knows he doesn't have what it takes, physically or spiritually to do a damned thing about it.

      @@noxvenit In no way am I implying Paul was weak. I am implying his speaking voice and delivery were not considered impressive by his opponents. But I do agree with you that Piper in no way has the same fortitude. How many do? I dont judge a man's character by his voice but by his actions. Piper's actions of late has caused me to abandon his ministry completely.

      I believe the problem with Paul's speaking was the lack of rhetorical polish. As to judgment of Piper's voice: I always felt that voice reflected the lack of inner strength he has now demonstrated.

    Piper exhibits the greatest arrogance. His Calvinism has led him to believe God must determine good and evil to be Sovereign. Therefore, he can say whatever he wants because, in the end, it has been determined by the Sovereign will of God. In his arrogance and determinism, he could never bring himself to conclude God has determined to use him as a vessel of evil, therefore he is good and those challenging him are evil. Also, in determinism, there is no accountability.

      Why does it take so long to get to John Piper's words. Culture and Faith, must be thought through. " The more dominant the culture is. . The more invisible I t is to us." All examination of cultural anthropology is not the same as CRT.

      John Piper grew up in a racist environment in South Carolina by his own description. He is eeacting to it. ZJohn Macart b er is Canadian in heritage from PEI. His Anglo-Canafian heritage has a perspective that has shaped him Nationally. Our nationality within our heritage informs us. Cultural barriers are primarily linguistic, not just cultural.

    “You are my hammer and weapon of war: with you I break nations in pieces; with you I destroy kingdoms;" Jer 51:20 - CRT is God's hammer. Jeremiah repeatedly calls for the Israelites to acknowledge that it was Him who called for Babylon. Babylon destroys and sweeps away the abominations and idolatries of Israel, and I think in the same way, CRT is sweeping away and destroying the idolatries of the Western man. In essence Isaiah may be speaking of CRT and the Great Reset. Judgement begins at the house of God.
    Isa 28
    For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
    12To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
    13But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
    14Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
    15Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
    16Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
    17Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
    18And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
    19From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
    20For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
    21For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
    22Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
    23Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
    24Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?
    25When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their place?
    26For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him.
    27For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
    28Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen.
    29This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.
