I thank you Lord with ALL my heart that my spirit understands what Piper is saying. You truly own everything in heaven and on earth. Then you walked among men to save us from our sinful nature by healing people and raising the dead. When you say a word it does not come back empty. Forgive these poor souls who make arrogant comments about your existence or sovereignty. Raise them Lord from among the dead, so one day they can also see how lost they are and give you the glory I now give you.
God’s word is eternal, I’m listening during the Coronavirus outbreak and this has been a more relevant word than the ones given in response to the Coronavirus
LOL I Love this Guy!! But I LOVE GOD Even MORE! But that's why I love John Piper, because you can tell he LOVES God Too, a Whole LOT! I have listened to this over 3 times now. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS WHOLE MESSAGE!!!
I Worship the Jesus that has everything under Control - as you mentioned :" there aren' t any details too small of his control"(1.40) ! We serve a almighty, wonderful, unbelievable Jesus! Praise and honor to him🙏!
Gert Scheper It' s one of the hardest thing in the world to See especiacilly a Young Person suffer or die! I don' t have the answer why all that happened to them! My first husband died on cancer on the age of 33 years, while our son was only 5 years old! In this time my husband asked once:" Why? I am so Young and WE want to See our son to grow Up!?" Then he trusted god and felt Peace over His Situation! I had difficulties to pray and to sing: " Hallelujah! Praise god!" But after a while Jesus helped me in my pain and I began to Trust him again! It' s wonderful to live with him day by day ( in a living relationship) and to know, where to go after Death! Hope, You excuse my mistakes - I' m from germany! God Bless You!
Gert Scheper Hello! Nice to speak to You from Holland ! Please don' t think so! Try to speak to Jesus and to search him, and You will find him - believe me: the Holy Bible ist real, God is real, Jesus is real, Heaven is real, but also hell! You can probably say:" Jesus - I don' t believe in You, but If You are really the son of god, please come into my live.." and You will See! Try it - You have nothing to loose!💚
Everything... but HE loves us... so He gives us FREE WILL..... TO CHOOSE .......THE FEAR OF THE LORD--> [Pro 1:24-29 KJV] 24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; 25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: 26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; 27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. 28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: 29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
I am worshipping the One Who said.."Obey My Commandments and Trust Me." Not the one..that says "i am giving you commandments..but I know you can't live them..so I will die..so you don't have to."
Don't know which "One" you're referring to, but the One's Bible says "There is no one who does good, not even one...., "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God...", "the soul that sins shall die", "the wages of sin is death". How's that obedience going for you?
jesuguru the order of things in salvation...isn't that the kicker? Regeneration aka new birth has to precede mans change of heart/mind. Scripture says it quite vividly. Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace. No idea why He saved me, other than for His glory, but all praise to Him!
Yes. What did JESUS himself actually preach? In Matthew 28 Jesus says, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and **teach all nations,** baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: **Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:** and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. In Mark, we read that Jesus tells us: Go ye into all the world, and **preach the gospel to every creature.** He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Teach all nations (every creature) what? The gospel. Teach all nations (every creature) what? To observe all things whatsoever Jesus himself commanded us. This is why Apostle John expressly warns Jesus' people in 2 John, Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the teachings of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the teachings / doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come ANY unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Everyone reading the following words, has now officially been warned: JESUS: Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. _ "But so and so said." I'm not interested in what so-and-so said. Whosoever he be, or claims to be... I wouldn't give a penny for his thoughts. JESUS is my Teacher. Everyone else is my brother or sister (per JESUS in Matt 23:8). Period.
@@AnHebrewChild Beautiful! You find such Good “Jesus Said”. Bible verses! Jesus explains things so clearly..it is hard to understand why people do not understand. And it right there in red!
+Jesus Christ the Lord..thank you so much for your long epistle. I am sure that it must have said something. But I have not the vaguest idea what? I suspect you may be an intellectual. I never understand intellectuals. They are lengthy and wordy and confusing. You are a Perfect example of why I Love my Savior so much. In the Gospel of Matthew chapters 5 6 7. He tells me exactly what to do. If I have any problem..I ask Him for Help and He does..both understanding and doing it. This works very well for me. So whatever it was you said. I am glad that works well for you. And may God Bless you too.
kathleen Wharton Come now Kathleen, what John is detailing here he explains with common words and expressions, yet he does it very eloquently. He is just stating that rather than random chance dictating life’s events, it’s God’s sovereign will instead determining them, and that is not a very difficult thing to understand, is it! That should bring you comfort, as it does me, since God is infinitely knowledgeable, and so we can trust that He determines how our days play out to the best outcome, if we pray that way. Just this week, I ended up in the ER getting two stitches in my foot because a glass vase in our bedroom fell and broke a minute before I was to leave for a chiropractic appointment. I believe God had a determined reason for me NOT to go that one day I will understand. Our wonderful Father orders our every step, and I am SO glad! That is not a super intelligent thing to grasp.

Amen! Kathleen - I clicked on yet another Piper video (this one) ... scrolled down to comments and really liked this one, and then noticed your name next to it. Ha. Awesome! I agree. (Back to the gospel of Matthew for me!)
@@AnHebrewChild I really like the Sermon on the Mount! Jesus is clear..concise and to the point! Avoid Pride..Lust..Greed..Anger and Worry. They are killer sins!
My friends i have a question. Do satan knew that if jesus die on the cross he himself will be defeated? If yes, then why did satan enter judas to betray Jesus?
Satan does not know all. He probably has a wealth of knowledge, but until God finishes him, he will continue to deceive. So he cannot know outcomes with certainty, unless God has revealed that outcome.
Charlie Yates the problem with this is that at first it seemed like Satan was trying to stop Jesus from dying for our sins on the cross "get away from me Satan" (jesus talking to peter) But Piper said: the devil realized probably he couldnz stop it... so he at least wanted to make it as nasty and awful as possible. By Judas betraying him. One of his best friends.. The devil decides to kill Jesus through Judas.
Jonathan Wick Satan might not have realized that this was the headcrushing moment promised way back in the garden of eden. The Angel of the Lord has been working His ways in the earth other times. I love the concepts that Beautiful Eulogy lays out in their song Emmanuel. But Satan just cannot have known the whole plan and council of God. He knows more than we do. He knows Scripture. But he isnt ceasing and he will not stop walking up down to and from until he is cast away by Jehovah God.
Lets go even further back. Was it God's will that satan would fall and corrupt the whole earth. The answer is yes. Jesus died in God's mind before the foundation of the world and nothing in this world, even sin, is random. It's all in the plan of God. 1 Peter 1:18-20 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. 20 He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. (NIV) Revelation 13:8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast -- all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world. (NIV)
John piper doesn’t even present alternative views. He just boldly asserts his own as if his interpretation is the only one. I don’t like when Calvinists do that
Arminians do the same thing, do you like that? God's total control and mans responsibility is all through scripture that is where Piper is preaching from.
Dominique Noelle whoa! Chill sister! God predetermined that I would watch this video and make that comment! On your view you’re not questioning me. Your questioning God’s sovereignty! Right?!!!
buffalo1d “God’s total control and mans responsibility” how can man be responsible for what God made him do? The whole point of moral responsibility is that man truly chooses to do right or wrong. If God preprograms me to sin then how does it even make sense to hold me accountable for my sin? I mean no disrespect. I know there are “calvanists” who hold less radical versions of Calvinism but full blown Calvinism is just silly to me.
Beau H You misunderstood it is all. God doesn't peprogram anything. Is mans will stronger than God's will? Is God wringling His fingers hoping people will choose Him? Read Roman's 9.
People, this is insane. Stop debating this nonsense. You can defend and justify any position you want with scripture. Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven. Stop using your bible like the pharisees. John 5 verse 39 You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, 40yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life. Eternal life is in Jesus, not the understanding of scripture. Read your bible to understand who God has called you to be and how you should walk it out as a Christian who believes and is saved by Grace.
What's your point? I agree with you that eternal life is in Jesus. But that doesn't mean we are not to read and understand God's word. 2 Timothy 2:15- Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. The word accurately handling literally mean dissecting.
I disagree with this, love needs free will and this seems to be against free will. We can’t love god unless it’s out of our own heart (freed by god to love him and called of course) he can control everything, but I don’t think he does control everything. Governing is different from control, and has power over is also different from control. Ps 115:3 :)
Murderous viruses do not do god’s bidding in the New Testament under a covenant of grace. The thief steals kills and destroys. Jesus said to heal the sick. So Jesus made the sick sick and then healed the sick? God is not against himself, the same way that Jesus said the devil can’t fight himself. Also, I think he made the meteorology that would naturally then do it’s stuff he programmed it to, I think for metaphors for how he is:) My conclusion is god is sovereign and can do anything, he wants to obey covenant though and hears us when we pray because he gave us the authority over earth remember? (I have the keys to hades etc.) So he can, but he won’t, but for his believers he will do anything that goes with the commands he has spoken to us in the bible. :)
On a separate note unrelated. The RUclips and entities ( algorithm ) Anti-Bible put these titles on my RUclips to play a movie no game because they truly know who I love in the Bible and they are afraid of my Spirit.
I like John piper but disagree. He's not taking into account Satan and demonic activity. He's not taking into account that in proverbs people wrote from a perspective of God's of that day and what they "thought" God was like. There's verses where they literally thought there was a window in heaven etc. There are things that happen that God doesn't want to happen...
@@GeometryDashAcamar your ok with Satan asking God if he can help someone or possess someone to rape a baby and God says sure go ahead? If that is your theology I could not disagree more but it's ok to disagree. Have a good day
What about Job? Didn't satan ask God's permission. There is nothing that happens in this world without God permitting it. There is a huge difference between God allowing something to happen and God wanting/ willing for something to happen. Sometimes pain is part of God's will as per 1 Peter 4:19. But not all suffering happens because it's the will of God. However, this doesn't change the fact that nothing happens without God's permission.
Jonathan Wick Because at molecular quantum level we all share 95% the same DNA. ALL OF US! From every tree to animal to person to the dirt under our feet. We all are one.
+jesuguru..Jesus is the One who said.." Obey My commandments and Trust Me" Paul is the one that said "we could not do it." That is a Lie. Jesus Helps you Live His commandments. Obedience is working wonderfully..thank you. Nothing has ever worked better. You have made Paul your god..Enjoy
kathleen Wharton Paul did not lie. The Apostle Peter said: 2 Peter 3:15-16 - And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things HARD to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. Yes anti-nomians who say we are unable to obey God's commandments are fools who twist Paul's writings to their destruction. The Apostle John said: 1 John 3:3-10 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to TAKE AWAY our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin is OF THE DEVIL; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. But you also misinterpret Paul's writings to your own destruction when you believe Paul ever supported the anti-nomian heresies that come from the mouths of disobedient Christians. Paul said you should keep the law, but that you are justified by faith without the works of the law: Romans 13:8-9 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. We aren't saved by keeping the Ten Commandments, but we are saved in order that we may be able to keep them. (Eph. 2:10) Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; To be saved is to be saved from bondage, power and guilt of sin, to be conformed to the will of God, to walk with Him in peace and righteousness. It also means going to Heaven in the future and avoiding Hell, the abode of miserable failures for all eternity. May Jesus be with you +
I disagree with this view. Armenians agree that God is totally sovereign. But He is sovereign in the sense that He either causes everything that happens to happen or He ALLOWS everything that happens to happen. Would a Calvinist be so kind as to answer this question of mine. If God is totally sovereign in the sense that He determines literally everything that happens then would that not include sin? How on this view is God not ultimately the author of sin?
Beau H God is the author full stop. What does sin mean? A sin is an act against God, therefore for God to be sinless means that God always does what’s right by God. It’s clear that the presence of sin in the world provides an amazing contrast between the goodness of God and the darkness of sin. God sovereignly wills this to be the case.
Beau H you are totally correct in my view. And I am a calvanist, I hate to call it that because it sounds like a new faith. I am a christian with calvanistic views. I think God purposes everything that he allows. I personally would not say: God made it snow BUT of course the bible describes it exactly that way. Well after all God is holding together all natural laws at this very moment. Every atom and subatomic particle. Every chemical reaction. Everything is holds together. There is no scientific reason why the laws of nature stay the same. Always and everywhere. Its God actively doing it. So it can be said that he causes the weather for example. If God allows something to happen. He deemed it good. For example God allows sinners to continue to live in their sin and self worship. And thus it is said that "God hardened them" not actively but he lets it happen. Does that make any sense? I hope it does
God is completely sovereign and in His sovereignty He allows us to make choices which determine the outcome. "Choose today whom you'll worship" was the choice God gave to the Israelites through Joshua. God is not the author of sin but some calvinists would teach that eventually it's God who causes us to do everything whether good or evil and then takes us into account. I love and have been spiritually enriched by John Piper's messages but on this one where he says that God controls even the scrabble and the dices, I differ somewhat. Well, there could be some exceptions where in order to serve some specific purposes of His He might just do that. But it's difficult for me to fathom why God would control every single pieces of dices and scrabbles on earth.
Beau H just discovered the great conundrum of classical Christian theology. If you don't like the Calvinist approach, take another one. Unfortunately, they all have their own set of problems too.

In Mark, we read that Jesus tells us:
Go ye into all the world, and **preach the gospel to every creature.**
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Teach all nations (every creature) what? The gospel.

buffalo1d “God’s total control and mans responsibility” how can man be responsible for what God made him do? The whole point of moral responsibility is that man truly chooses to do right or wrong. If God preprograms me to sin then how does it even make sense to hold me accountable for my sin? I mean no disrespect. I know there are “calvanists” who hold less radical versions of Calvinism but full blown Calvinism is just silly to me.
Beau H You misunderstood it is all. God doesn't peprogram anything. Is mans will stronger than God's will? Is God wringling His fingers hoping people will choose Him? Read Roman's 9.
People, this is insane. Stop debating this nonsense. You can defend and justify any position you want with scripture. Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven. Stop using your bible like the pharisees. John 5 verse 39 You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, 40yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life.
Eternal life is in Jesus, not the understanding of scripture. Read your bible to understand who God has called you to be and how you should walk it out as a Christian who believes and is saved by Grace.
What's your point? I agree with you that eternal life is in Jesus. But that doesn't mean we are not to read and understand God's word. 2 Timothy 2:15- Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. The word accurately handling literally mean dissecting.
I disagree with this, love needs free will and this seems to be against free will. We can’t love god unless it’s out of our own heart (freed by god to love him and called of course) he can control everything, but I don’t think he does control everything. Governing is different from control, and has power over is also different from control. Ps 115:3 :)
Murderous viruses do not do god’s bidding in the New Testament under a covenant of grace. The thief steals kills and destroys. Jesus said to heal the sick. So Jesus made the sick sick and then healed the sick? God is not against himself, the same way that Jesus said the devil can’t fight himself.
Also, I think he made the meteorology that would naturally then do it’s stuff he programmed it to, I think for metaphors for how he is:)
My conclusion is god is sovereign and can do anything, he wants to obey covenant though and hears us when we pray because he gave us the authority over earth remember? (I have the keys to hades etc.) So he can, but he won’t, but for his believers he will do anything that goes with the commands he has spoken to us in the bible. :)
The Bible does say faith is a gift from God.
You should be Worshipping the God of the Bible through the Jesus of the Bible, Yet you would know that if you knew the Word of the Bible.
On a separate note unrelated. The RUclips and entities ( algorithm ) Anti-Bible put these titles on my RUclips to play a movie no game because they truly know who I love in the Bible and they are afraid of my Spirit.
when you say JESUS reigns, do you also mean GOD THE FATHER? please enlighten me...
They are the same. The Father is with the Son and the Son the Father. He is the Holy Spirit. He is master of all.
I like John piper but disagree. He's not taking into account Satan and demonic activity. He's not taking into account that in proverbs people wrote from a perspective of God's of that day and what they "thought" God was like. There's verses where they literally thought there was a window in heaven etc. There are things that happen that God doesn't want to happen...
Piper does actually. He says nothing happens outside of God's will. Demonic activities happen because God allows it to happen.
@@GeometryDashAcamar your ok with Satan asking God if he can help someone or possess someone to rape a baby and God says sure go ahead? If that is your theology I could not disagree more but it's ok to disagree. Have a good day
@@GeometryDashAcamar God wills for Allen to be saved... yet there not.
I meant all not Allen lol
What about Job? Didn't satan ask God's permission. There is nothing that happens in this world without God permitting it. There is a huge difference between God allowing something to happen and God wanting/ willing for something to happen. Sometimes pain is part of God's will as per 1 Peter 4:19. But not all suffering happens because it's the will of God. However, this doesn't change the fact that nothing happens without God's permission.
There is God because quantum physics exist.
R313 J283 I would say that quantum physics exist because there is God
Even if quantum physics didn't exist, God still would be God 👍👍
Ethan DyTioco why is that. Of course nothing would exist without god. But why does Quantum physics in particular show his existence?
Jonathan Wick Because at molecular quantum level we all share 95% the same DNA. ALL OF US! From every tree to animal to person to the dirt under our feet. We all are one.
Panda Cheeks quantum level is much smaller than dna
The dead one
None at all.
+jesuguru..Jesus is the One who said.." Obey My commandments and Trust Me" Paul is the one that said "we could not do it." That is a Lie. Jesus Helps you Live His commandments. Obedience is working wonderfully..thank you. Nothing has ever worked better. You have made Paul your god..Enjoy
kathleen Wharton Paul did not lie. The Apostle Peter said:
2 Peter 3:15-16 - And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things HARD to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
Yes anti-nomians who say we are unable to obey God's commandments are fools who twist Paul's writings to their destruction. The Apostle John said:
1 John 3:3-10
And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to TAKE AWAY our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin is OF THE DEVIL; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
But you also misinterpret Paul's writings to your own destruction when you believe Paul ever supported the anti-nomian heresies that come from the mouths of disobedient Christians. Paul said you should keep the law, but that you are justified by faith without the works of the law:
Romans 13:8-9
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
We aren't saved by keeping the Ten Commandments, but we are saved in order that we may be able to keep them. (Eph. 2:10)
Titus 2:11-12
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
To be saved is to be saved from bondage, power and guilt of sin, to be conformed to the will of God, to walk with Him in peace and righteousness. It also means going to Heaven in the future and avoiding Hell, the abode of miserable failures for all eternity.
May Jesus be with you +
I disagree with this view. Armenians agree that God is totally sovereign. But He is sovereign in the sense that He either causes everything that happens to happen or He ALLOWS everything that happens to happen.
Would a Calvinist be so kind as to answer this question of mine. If God is totally sovereign in the sense that He determines literally everything that happens then would that not include sin? How on this view is God not ultimately the author of sin?
Beau H God is the author full stop. What does sin mean? A sin is an act against God, therefore for God to be sinless means that God always does what’s right by God. It’s clear that the presence of sin in the world provides an amazing contrast between the goodness of God and the darkness of sin. God sovereignly wills this to be the case.
He allowed free beings to sin. Of course he knew it was gonna happen. Doesnt mean it didnt hurt him. But he has perfect ultimate purposes
Beau H you are totally correct in my view. And I am a calvanist, I hate to call it that because it sounds like a new faith. I am a christian with calvanistic views.
I think God purposes everything that he allows. I personally would not say: God made it snow BUT of course the bible describes it exactly that way.
Well after all God is holding together all natural laws at this very moment. Every atom and subatomic particle. Every chemical reaction. Everything is holds together. There is no scientific reason why the laws of nature stay the same. Always and everywhere. Its God actively doing it. So it can be said that he causes the weather for example.
If God allows something to happen. He deemed it good.
For example God allows sinners to continue to live in their sin and self worship. And thus it is said that "God hardened them" not actively but he lets it happen.
Does that make any sense? I hope it does
God is completely sovereign and in His sovereignty He allows us to make choices which determine the outcome. "Choose today whom you'll worship" was the choice God gave to the Israelites through Joshua. God is not the author of sin but some calvinists would teach that eventually it's God who causes us to do everything whether good or evil and then takes us into account. I love and have been spiritually enriched by John Piper's messages but on this one where he says that God controls even the scrabble and the dices, I differ somewhat. Well, there could be some exceptions where in order to serve some specific purposes of His He might just do that. But it's difficult for me to fathom why God would control every single pieces of dices and scrabbles on earth.
Beau H just discovered the great conundrum of classical Christian theology. If you don't like the Calvinist approach, take another one. Unfortunately, they all have their own set of problems too.
