John Piper Sermons

Jesus will not allow you to call him merely interesting, intelligent, or instructive. Everyone must reckon with his actual claims.

John Piper | You can fight the battle hard against your sin because Jesus has already purchased victory over your sin at the cross.

Every river of joy in your soul will flow from Jesus. When you come to him, you get him. And he never leaves.

John Piper | You can’t know Jesus until your will is to do God’s will. And God’s will is to make much of himself.

Faith, at its core, is despairing of human approval and being glad in the God of grace.

Jesus died for sinners. And that group includes those who have had or committed abortions.

John Piper | The Lord’s Prayer teaches us to go to God for every need, especially our need to hallow him above all things.

John Piper | God won’t ever let you be the ultimate source of your own joy. Only God himself can possibly bear the weight of the happiness he has prepared for you.

Love for people consists in being so satisfied in God that we are willing to lay our loves down to bring them into our joy.

God’s purpose for humanity is to find joy in him. Therefore, you must dedicate your entire life to pursuing maximum happiness, without letting any moment pass by without striving for it, even if it costs you your life.

The word of God shows us the will of God for the church, for the home, for ministry, for manhood and womanhood, for the lost world, and for all of life as a disciple of Christ.

Though God does make much of us in the gospel, the root of all his benefits and salvation toward us is his infinite passion for his own glory.

Emotions are essential in the Christian life because Christ is most magnified in us when he is more valuable than anything life can give and death can take away.

Attempting to hide the truth for the sake of unity is essentially holding hands in the dark. In this interview, John Piper and Conrad Mbewe discuss the growing divisions in evangelical circles and emphasize why unity in the truth is essential.

Thinking is firewood for burning love for God and others. It’s not the end in itself, but it’s a means to the end: to love God.

Sometimes we experience so much pain and so much confusion, we don’t know what to pray for. But fear not: the Holy Spirit intercedes for his people.

True Christian preaching isn’t a lecture, but an awakening of worship in both the pastor and his people.

The same Spirit who awoke faith in your dead soul is the same Spirit who empowers you to live a holy life. Keep in step with the Spirit, not the flesh.
