      The recency of your comment along with the "quickened" nature of its "tone" is such a blessing that brings me excitement for you. Every now and then, I look at the rolling increase in number of subscribers and remember when Piper first came upon my radar and it's very stirring to see the wind of the Holy Spirit streaming through people that have not known of Piper for a long time!! There is no one like him within this generation because he is the perfect proportion of assertive intellect and passionate heart... And there's often a slight confusion in his preaching because it is the mixture of the Transcendence and immanence of God and he switches between the rigorous doctrine of transcendent sovereignty (God) with intermediate perspectives of eminent experience (human).
      Charles Spurgeon once said, "We must believe like Calvinists and preach like Arminians"... and no one has that gift like Piper, and it is solely by Grace, through Faith, from Scripture, in Christ, to the Glory of God -Alone!
      The curiousness of "Christian Hedonism" is that the Glory of God alone is what brings us ultimate pleasure even through our intermediate experiences... because He is unlike any other!
      Soli Deo Gloria - God bless.

    When you seek comfort & security by doing religious things (church attendance, preachers, singing, worship, prayer etc.) then you should know you haven't attained the rest (Salvation in Jesus Christ).
    All those things mentioned above are the result of the total rest the born-again child of God has experienced in Christ @ his Salvation.

    This is true before I was truly saved I went through so many things and they filled a void for a bit but eventually it’d fall out and I’d be hollow once more. I’ve been saved for less than a year now but this past year I’ve really felt Christ not only save me but fill me with his love and peace and joy to share with others and it’s so much better than anything or material I could ever have. Honestly because Jesus is more real than you or I and when you become more like him you almost experience more in life, idk how to explain it but every second of everyday when your on Good terms with God you have this inner peace knowing that your here for a higher purpose. We all have 2 purposes in life I believe, 1. To be saved, serve God, and spread the Gospel. 2. This one is where it’s different for everyone, as for me God may want me to be a police man , or for others maybe a singer, or actor. Regardless Jesus loves us and yes we always keep his righteousness in our mind but never let his wrath/judgement overcome his love for you. If you seek him and open your heart fully to him, he will give you his beautiful fruits and remove all sinful bondage and desires you may have now but you don’t truly want. Sorry this is so long I think the Holy Spirit just has me typing and this is what came out but anyways God bless you all and pray for me and my fam to make it to heaven for eternity anyone reading this please and just send me any prayer requests!:) God bless in Jesus name!:)

    THE LAMPSTAND
    (Matthew 5:15)
    In our hearts do we have rooms
    With the doors shut tight
    Inside a sin we just can't bring
    Out into God's light
    The Lord is calling out to us
    To open up our hearts
    So God's light can shine inside
    And set our lives apart
    We are His special children
    Our lampstand is now set
    He wants our light to shine so bright
    As bright as it can get
    The time is now open your heart
    And let God's light shine in
    We'll shine bright so all can see
    The light of God within

      Jesus wasn't about throwing his arms around, and being an entertainer. He also taught that his father's will was to be done on earth, constantly repeating that he had come to teach about the kingdom on earth as it is done in heaven. Once Satan is removed, that kingdom will be established.
      As Satan from Adam, has ruled over the Earth that Jehovah created. Jesus came to reconcile the purpose of GOD in that he raised people from death to life.
      He didn't bring them from back from anywhere except the grave.

He's a pastor of a church, he is in the word and he is sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Piper is not claiming to be perfect, he preaches to himself first.

    Oh brethren, do not be baited by the enemy, pray for those who curse you and move on. Ignoring fools is the best medicine for their puffed up arrogant, crude, prideful behavior, that goes for all of us. Pray the Lord would have mercy and humble them as He did us. For we were once far off, walking according to the vain imaginations of who we thought God was and justifying each of our behaviors with every blasphemous breath.
    The burden is truly light 🙏❤️
    Knowledge puffs up and leads to arrogance and pride. God is not a liar and He says He resists the proud, but draws near to the humble. So we do not have to defend, God will repay His enemies to their face throughout all eternity. That is a frightening truth, so trust God and pray for those that curse you, that they may be drawn by the Father. And if Danny truly belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ, a love offering from the Father to His Son, God will chastise him, not for questioning Dr. Piper's theology, even the Bereans did such and we're praised, but judged for all his arrogance, rudeness, boastfulness, hastiness, harshness and every other area he lacked love, as He will do with us. We are judged according to love. Love is the commandment that is above all else. Jesus told us so. Love God and love your neighbor, all the rest of the commandments hang on this. How did you do in this testing? How about loving your enemies? How did you do?
    So we have nothing to fret over. We sprinkle seeds of Truth, water and labor in the fields, God gives the increase and all that belongs to Him will come to Him. And all will glorify Him ❤️
    They will know that you belong to the Lord Jesus because of the love that you have for one another, the patience you have with one another, the kindness you have with one another.
    Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. The wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
    Lord bless you, bless all of you.

    I am not claiming that Madeleine L'Angle was a Christian but this seems to be exactly what she was exploring in "A Wind in the Door".

    This made me wanna tear up. Maybe there's hope for me to get Jesus back, yet; and maybe I did NOT COMMIT THE unpardonable sin when I renounced Him.
    I ave lost hope. Jesus has taken His Spirit from me. I have dreams of abandoned houses, and they look so oppressively abandoned. Because I no long er have Jesus, I am sinking into carnal sin: I exposed myself naked online. to 2 girls that used to beg to see me such, but, back then, I did not need to do it.
    Now, it comforts me I am desirable to the female, and gets my mind off the pain of losing Jesus.
    I have been begging forgiveness, but JESUS IS NOT (YET?) taking me back! HE JUST DOES NOT WANT ME ANYMORE, and it is all my damn fault!

      You feel true remorse don't you?
      Check the deepest parts of your heart. You may not be like Esau.

    The only reason you aren’t saved is if you haven’t trusted in Jesus Christ to save you; if you haven’t believed in Him. That’s it. Period.

      How can one force themselves to believe in something without sufficient proof? I challenge you to believe in Big Foot. Plenty of people claim to have seen it. Plenty of books written about it. Can you force yourself to believe in Big Foot? All this relationship with Jesus that I keep hearing people talking about - why can't I have it? Why can't I feel transformed like this pastor when I pray? I pray and it's like talking to a a wall. I read the Bible and I'm not transformed. My thoughts don't change. My skepticism doesn't change. My faith in Jesus doesn't increases.

      TheLHShowChannel Do you believe that Jesus Christ died for you and rose from the dead?

    • @LucianFromEarth
      @LucianFromEarth 6 лет назад

      I don't understand why He had to die. If it was as a sacrifice for our sins, why would an all-powerful God be unwilling to forgive sins without the need for a sacrifice? The very definition of forgiveness doesn't include an exchange. Forgiveness is granted freely. If it has to be bought through a sacrifice, it's not forgiveness. It's just an act of compensation.

      TheLHShowChannel God is a just God:
      Romans 2:5-6
      5But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 6Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
      Our sins cannot go unpunished due to the righteousness of God. He has decided that it is blood that atones for sin:
      Leviticus 17:11
      11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
      Because of His great mercy, he sent His Son to be that atonement for the whole world. If you believe on Jesus Christ, that He died for you, then you will be saved. It is a free gift.

      TheLHShowChannel you can’t force yourself to believe in God. God has to do a supernatural work in your heart for you to even have the ability to believe. If this is something you sincerely are looking for start praying for the ability to believe.

    "carried about by every wind of doctrine"...I know people who fit this description, going from one extreme to another, supposedly within Christian theology, yet miles apart. They are also frequently angry...
