This is what happens when men find far more enjoyment in chasing after the "shadow" instead of the substance, which is Christ.

Let me just say before finishing this video- John Piper is a nut. Does this man even live in the real world? This is sickening- his adorable affection for another man, even someone so misguided and clueless as C.S. Lewis as regards the faith.

All very well what you said, but what the heck is New Calvinist, the old one was bad enough !

I’ve read a lot of CS Lewis. And I really enjoyed his writings, but I never got the whole Christian hedonism thing. He talked about joy and he talked about happiness, but he also talked about loving God with your mind. He talked about reason. And he talked about seeing. So I’m not really getting this whole Christian hedonism thing with CS Lewis. Maybe someone can explain it to me? Because I’m just not seeing it.

I've never been into him but.. this same John Piper sounded caution sometime in 2015 or so about Lewis.. In fact, I've 'borrowed' some of his reasons to abstain from Lewis in the past.. I mean, 🤔 Is he confused?

Didn’t C.S. Lewis ever hear of the destruction of Jerusalem? In 70 AD? Mark 13:30. C.S. Lewis and his foolishness. Everything happened exactly as the Lord Jesus said.
