Teacher: John Piper

Praise the Lord! Yesterday I was struggling with this same question and at some point I felt so bad for doubting my children of God condition as if I were a second class child for not being super spiritual... So I repent and confess myself to my God. Today, my Glorious Dad in heaven sent pastor John to explain me His Marvelous way of particular love upon me. I have the Perfect Father I always wanted and needed to belong to. Praise the Lord for his particular love to all of their children. God bless you Pastor John. 🙏

Really enjoy your videos. You explain some of the most complicated aspects of the Bible in very easy and understandable statements. God bless you

[JLimma]

Great explanation! Glod to our lord Jesus Christ. appreciated for the wonderful message. May God use regularly for His kingdom.

[HearGodsWord]

A good question, though we should worry more about much, or little, we love God ourselves and how we love others.

I really like that app /program used. What is it Dat pastor John uses

[awakeandpraying]

Why does JP (several times) read or speak of John 3:16 and completely NOT say "believe IN HIM?" Our entire belief (and saving) system is ONLY that we believe IN HIM. Satan and the fallen angels "believe, " but NOT "in Him." I so appreciate JP's teachings and God has truly used him in my life, but this didn't sit well with my soul...😔🤔🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

You cannot choose your family but YHWH can.. that's one of the many things we can't do because we are not God.. but we can choose our friends

God does not love those predestined to Hell the same way that He loves we who are predestined for Heaven.

In this video Piper states that it was God’s great love that made us alive and that it was because of His ‘peculiar’ love for the elect that they alone are made alive.

If a person, while being dead, is made alive by God’s ‘peculiar’ love for them, and presumably being made alive means being saved, then Piper has just found a way to be saved without faith and repentance.

I reckon I will stick to what the Bible says – God is good to all and shows mercy to all; He is infinite in love, rich in mercy and grace, and kind in all His deeds, and thus, ANYONE WHO CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED.

[Soteriology]

We are raised with Him THROUGH FAITH (Col 2:12). The elect ones are not effectually raised unto faith as Piper seems to wrongly presume in this video.

The “us” in 1:4-5 are “the faithful in Christ” of 1:1. We are elect in so far as we are in Him, the elect One.

[demetrioocano]

No, If you read the Bible very slowly and CAREFULLY, you will see that GOD only loves his ELECT, 2 Peter 1:10, and look up PREDESTINATION, CALLED and so on

[felixguerrero]

Calvinism is a theological construct, brought to the Bible, but no derived from it. Yes, God loves the whole world, and it is not His will that anyone perish, however the fullness of the Love of God can only be experienced in Christ through faith and repentance. Sadly determinists willfully insist that it is Gods will is that some perish and that only a few be saved. This is in stark contrast to the explicit teachings of Scripture. God bless.
