He is right. We have no rights with God. We are totally undeserving of His grace and His love. We all fall short but that's not an excuse to not repent and stay humble. It's a constant "check" (as in chess) of our sinful nature, and repentance in a daily basis. The days are evil. The good news is we don't have to tackle this alone. God gave us His son Jesus and His spirit. I alone am nothing. When I humble myself and ask God for help, I can conquer anything.
Philemon verses 8 to25 ( Paul's plea for Onesimus) Philemon verses 8:8-13( Zondervan NIV Study Bible) "8 Therefore, although in Christ( Jesus😊1st❤) I could be bold and order you to do what you ought to do, 9 yet I appeal to you❤ on the basis of love❤. I then, as Paul- an old man and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus(😊1st❤)- 10 I appeal to you for my son ( Onesimus), who became my son while i was in chains. 11 Formerly he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me. 12 I am sending him- who is my very heart- back to you. 13 I would have liked to keep him with me so that he could take your place in helping me while I am in chains for the gospel😊❤."( Philemon verses 8:8-13( Zondervan NIV Study Bible)
Philemon verses 14-25. "14 But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that my favor you do will be spontaneous and not forced. 15 Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a little while was that you might have him back for good- 16 no longer as a slave, but better than a slave, as a dear brother. He is very dear to me but even dear to you, both as a man and as a brother in the Lord. 17 So If you consider me a partner, welcome him as you welcome me. 18 If he has done you any wrong or owes you anything, charge it to me. 19 I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand. I will pay it back- not to mention that you owe me your very self. 20 I do wish, brother, that I may have some benefit from you in the Lord(Jesus😊1st❤) refresh my heart in Christ( Jesus). 21 Confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do everything than I ask. 22 And one thing more: prepare a guest room for me, because I hope to be restored to you in answer to your prayers. 23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus( Jesus😊1st❤), send you greetings❤ 24And so do Mark (❤😊), Aristarchus(❤😊) , Demas(😊❤) and Luke(😊❤), my fellow workers(😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤) 25 The grace of the Lord(Jesus😊1st❤) Jesus Christ be with your Spirit."( Philemon verses 8:14-25( Zondervan NIV Study Bible )and all parenthesis parts and symbol of love😊❤ in and for Christ Jesus, my Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) and my savior( Jesus😊1st❤ ) too in Christ. May the Lord, Jesus Himself dwell in your hearts too as He is in me too. So help us God. In Jesus'name, i pray for speedy recovery and healing for others. God is still good and a good God to us in Christ. God is faithful always. In Jesus'name, i pray( John 14:6 ; James 5:14-15). Amen.
When Paul said he was called to be a slave of Christ and his grasp of grace did it have anything to do with his career he gave up as a lawyer studying to be on the Sanhedrin or a judge on Israel's Supreme Court in order to serve God and be a homeless tentmaker and tell his Church plants that he didn't take money so he wouldn't be a burden as he'd rather make tents?
Piper? I was accused of pro life idolatry by one of your followers yesterday. Funny, where did my “this is the hill I will die on” thing come from? It came from you, Piper. You may want to really dial back your preaching. Some people just might take you seriously. (Suggestion: At the end of every prolife sermon, no matter how factual or fiery, qualify it by saying “if a politician comes along who will save these children, before giving your support, make sure you are swayed by the media, who may have nasty things to say about him.”)
Romans is an amazing book!
remind us Lord how corrupt we truly are so we can appreciate your call!

Pastor John Piper, that is not true at all about the human heart.
