I honestly love you so much John Piper.. I listen to a few preachers here and there besides the studying i do alone with my bible and the holy spirit. Ive came to recognize preachers whom are close with the mouth but not with their hearts. You are one of the very few ministers i fully trust. I also feel a enormous amount of true love for you. I recognize you my brother. I love you my brother. May the lord bless you for all your days. I greet you with a holy kiss.

Just because abeliever doesn't accept the sequence of the 5 points of calvinism (tulip) aka the Doctrines of Grace.. doesn't mean they do not believe God to be all powerful and the ultimate ate author.. nor does it mean they are a universalism or believe they are responsible for their salvation etc

Election has nothing to do with God choosing who is going to be saved. It is God choosing someone or something for a purpose to serve. Look up all the verses in the old and new testaments that have the word chosen or election and you will see that it has to to with being elected to serve or to perform some function. John Pipers definition for elect foreknowledge predestination etc comes from Augustine who was a manachean gnostic before he became a Catholic Saint and he imparted the gnostic doctrines into his brand of Christianity and Calvin another Catholic priest made them popular. If you don’t believe me go checkout the ancient gnostic writings and the writings of Augustine. There are many verses in the Bible that say Jesus died for the sins of the whole world that he isn’t willing that any should perish that whosoever ever believes in him should not perish and many many more similar verses. So why are you calvanists so eager for God to condemn most people. My suggestion to you John Piper is if you have the love of Jesus deep in your soul is that you get down on your knees and beg God to save your neighbor and his children instead of you

Israel is the chosen people of God, his inheritance out of all other nations. The election of salvation is on an individual level, as God has a particular and unique relationship with each of his children (Romans 9:13-16). as we know not every single Israelite was saved, many were wicked in the sight of The Lord. So election in respect to his saving grace, is not a broad stroke of the paintbrush, but a very personal and special revelation of grace for God’s chosen people.

Mr Piper doesn’t quote the entire verse from 2 Timothy. He drops the word “also”. Why is that I wonder? For this reason I endure all things for the sake of those who are chosen, so that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus and with it eternal glory. Sounds like Paul is talking about two groups of people. 1 the chosen ie israel who arent saved 2 the believing gentiles who have been grafted in and are already saved

"Jesus is not the [author] of sin." I've heard that numerous times, and have yet to figure out what that actually means. Approaching sin from a different direction, I'll share the following thought. Had sin [not] happened in The Garden, then God's Plan as it has unfolded would not have transpired. Though God certainly did not [cause] sin (Satan did that), sin was a vital part of God's Plan. God had to move man to a place where he could not save himself, and that was accomplished via sin. Had God made man able to save himself, then it would not have been necessary for Jesus to come down here to did what He did. By making man unable to save himself, God showed us that only He could save us from ourselves. This is all about God, not us.

James - great question, and I might add a natural one. At one time, God The Father and Jesus were one. Because God constructed a plan for us human beings, He separated Jesus from Himself (begot Him) for the purpose of coming to earth to redeem those He was about to create. So, God chose Jesus for that purpose, making Jesus the first and primary Elect. I know that is nothing you'll ever hear in church, but it is being submitted only to prompt some deeper thought by you.

Everyone in heaven is so grateful that they cannot be tempted to sin, while virtually everyone on earth is so ungrateful that they have no desire to stop sinning. And so, all that you and I need do to gain salvation is to create something impossible for God to create, the one thing that we can create, namely a grateful, contrite and human heart. "The work of God is this, to believe..." For when it comes to salvation, everything but our gratitude is good works, be it faith, works or grace, everything but our creating a grateful heart is either God's good works or our good works.

OT believers were never fully cleansed from their sins through animal sacrifice (Hebrews 10:4). The sacrifices were all pointing to Jesus, who would become the ultimate sacrifice. In terms of the new covenant in NT, we are justified before God because of the perfect sacrifice of Christ Jesus. God’s election doesn’t negate his justice, so someone still had to pay the fine for our sins. For the wage of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Jesus Christ was the only one able to satisfy God’s divine wraith.

There are those who say that "election" is not Biblical. Apparently, they have overlooked Romans, especially chapter 9. It is unquestionably Biblical. The only relative questions regarding "election" is what does it mean, and to whom does it apply. Do you know who was the first "elect" to be predestined? It was Jesus Himself. Even before The Father begot Him, Jesus was "chosen" and predestined to come to earth to affect Salvation for those who would become the Children of God. God was, from the beginning (even before then) going to save His own, not everyone as some will end up in hell (whatever and wherever that is).

In that case if you have the love of God in your heart I think you should get down on your knees and ask God to save your neighbor and his children instead of you. Election is biblical but it is always related to God electing some thing or person for his purpose. Jesus was the elect one does that mean God chose to save him instead of damn him? Look up all of the verses in the old and new testament and you will find they all have to do with being chosen or elect for some purpose it has nothing to do with God choosing to save or damn anyone. But if you love the idea that God desires to damn most people for his glory then have at it. Do you hope most of your family were chosen, maybe God doesn't want all of them.

So we are to believe Jesus died for everyone? That Jesus satisfied God’s justice for all? How, then, can anyone be found guilty and condemned if Jesus was the propitiation for all? If Jesus died for everyone and satisfied God’s wraith against all, how can God find fault with anyone? That’s double jeopardy, which would make God unjust. This also undermines God’s wisdom by suggesting his plan for salvation wasn’t good enough, his love not saving enough. Its like purchasing ice cream from a vendor, and walking away without the ice cream. Foolish. If God planned for all to be saved, and thus died for everyone, this suggests his blood and sacrifice were insufficient to save all he died for. That his blood was wasted on those who rejected this atonement. “No”they will say, “God gives us the option of receiving his saving grace. By our own free will.” So basically saying God’s love only gets us so far? That it then befalls us to do the leg work and receive salvation? Foolish. Salvation belongs to The Lord, not us. To suggest we achieved this victory, even a small slice of It, is false. All things belong to God, all glory belong to God, not us.

Yes...Jesus is the elect and All that believe IN JESUS are elect, because they are in Him. And God is all knowing (has foreknowledge) and therefore knows who will be saved (is saved since God is outside of time, also). But, God will that All men be saved, so men MUST have free will to accept or reject the gospel, or else it would not be a real relationship and all just a charade--why call us sons of God, if we are pre-programmed--we would be robots of God. GOD WILL ALL MEN BE SAVED: 1 Tim 2:4 Who *will have all men to be saved*, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. GOD CALLS ALL MEN: Acts 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now *commandeth all men every where to repent*: RELATIONSHIP, NOT ROBOTS: Foreknowledge is not chosing one over the others: God desires relationship, so I am pretty sure all of us have the free will to accept or reject the Gospel. And, I believe God, when he says that he WILL THAT ALL MEN BE SAVED, but men love darkness rather than light, so many will reject HIM because they are blinded by the ruler of this world (2 Cor. 4.4) 2 Cor 4.4 In whom *the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ*, who is the image of God, *should shine unto them*. (Meaning they are blinded by lust and kept in the dark)

Romans 8:29 says that the ones he foreknew he also predestined

Yes. And who did God foreknow before the foundations of the world? Answer: Himself--God the father, knew God the Son, knew God the Holy Spirit. John 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee *before the world was*. So, by believing in Jesus, you are known by the Father, through Jesus, because Jesus says: John 14: 7 If *ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also*: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. That is why God will say to ALL who believe in Jesus for salvation from sin, "Well DONE"!, but those who reject Jesus, will be told, "Depart from me you worker of iniquity, I NEVER KNEW YOU". Believe on Jesus Christ and you shall be saved! It is simple, but men complicate it. You are saved the INSTANT you believe and NOTHING can unsave you (not even you). God will chastise you when you sin in the flesh because He loves you, but you can not escape his Love once you put your faith in Jesus for salvation from your sins. Notice the verse below says when you are saved after believing and God seals you with His Holy Spirit UNTIL the DAY of REDEMPTION! Joy! Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, FYI- Get a KJV Bible; they are changing God's word to take away your assurance and put your under the law to make you think YOU must earn salvation or that you can lose salvation, which is a satanic lie. God's grace, my friend. Jesus loves you more than you could ever know.

bible4truth The king james bible is probably one of the most inacuarate bible according to the Greek language. I use the ESV or the NASB which are extremely close to the Greek. But yeah you can never lose your salvation.

Ben Booth Ben...you are deceived. It is only inaccurate because you compare it to corrupt manuscripts out of Alexandria. I know for a fact ESV, NASB, NIV, NLT, NKJV are all corrupt.

@@bible4truth I agreed with you until you brought up the heretical OSAS doctrine. OSAS propped up during 1600s, it's an alien recent doctrine. OSAS is a recent doctrine that propped up during the 1600s - which none of the students of Apostles or early church fathers adhered for. All the verses put forth for this can be explained under conditional salvation and actually synthesizes with the rest of the scripture but the opposite cannot be done without being awkward and forced. You can only say that all those great Christians from early history were wrong either due to not having the Holy Spirit, not consulting with Him or He did not reveal it to them for "inexplicable" reasons. And for anyone wondering what the students of the Apostles thought on this matter, from the very beginning. ( Note : They had a surprisingly similar stance on this, drew the same conclusion from the scripture we today read. That also corresponded with the first thousand years of Christianity until OSAS reared its head during the 1600s ) “Watch for your life’s sake. Let not your lamps be quenched, nor your loins unloosed; but be ye ready, for ye know not the hour in which our Lord cometh. But often shall ye come together, seeking the things which are befitting to your souls: for the whole time of your faith will not profit you, if ye be not made perfect in the last time.” (Didache, A.D.70) “He who keeps them will be glorified in the kingdom of God. However, he who chooses other things will be destroyed with his works.” (Barnabas, A.D. 70) “We ought therefore, brethren, carefully to inquire concerning our salvation. Otherwise, the wicked one, having made his entrance by deceit, may hurl us forth from our life.” (Barnabas, A.D. 70) “And pray ye without ceasing in behalf of other men; for there is hope of the repentance, that they may attain to God. For ‘cannot he that falls arise again, and he may attain to God.’” (Ignatius of Antioch, To the Ephesians, A.D.110) “Let us therefore repent with the whole heart, so that none of us perish by the way.” (Second Clement, A.D. 150) “I hold further, that those of you who have confessed and known this man to be Christ, yet who have gone back for some reason to the legal dispensation [i.e. the Mosaic Law] and have denied that this man is Christ, and have not repented before death-you will by no means be saved.” (Justin Martyr, A.D. 160) “Rather, we should fear ourselves, lest perchance, after we have come to the knowledge of Christ, if we do those things displeasing to God, we obtain not further forgiveness for sin, but are shut out of His kingdom.” (Irenaeus, A.D. 180 “God gives forgiveness of past sins. However, as to future sins, each one procures this for himself. He does this by repenting, by condemning past deeds, and by begging the Father to blot them out.” Clement of Alexandria, A.D. 195 “The world returned to sin…and so it is destined to fire. So is the man who after baptism renews his sins.” Tertullian, A.D. 198 You need to ask yourself why the Sacred Author says 1. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering (gives a warning) 2. For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth , there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment 3. How much worse punishment will be deserved, by the one who has... profaned the blood of the covenant BY WHICH HE WAS sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of Grace? 4. For you have need of endurance . 5. If he shrinks back , my soul has no pleasure in him. Practically on Numbers 2. and 3. Bonus : Read Hebrews 6:4
