John Piper Sermons

Worship is an end in itself, not a means to some other end. God gets the glory and we get the joy.

The deepest root of our worship must be God's passion for his own glory. Only his glory satisfies eternally.

Only those who know Jesus have the Spirit and know the truth that makes real worship possible.

Our hearts wander to the sewer even though Jesus offers living water. Only he can transform and satisfy our deepest desires.

John Piper | God uses everything for his sovereign purposes. Even the most heinous crimes ever committed were never beyond his control.

John Piper | God ordains all things, including the fall of Satan and the fall of man, for his glory in Jesus Christ.

Jesus reveals our woeful condition that causes our thirst, and then offers his cup of grace so we never have to thirst again.

God promises in the new covenant to keep believers steadfast to the end. He works with all of his heart and all of his soul, with infinite joy, to help us endure.

Health and wealth tempt us to no end, but they can never deliver what we need most. Christ is our only true life and treasure.

The work frontier missions must be carried out with an understanding of the motivation and method of missions.

The work frontier missions must be carried out with an understanding of the task of missions and the necessity of missions.

Revivals cannot be manufactured by human strategies, but we can seek the things that have characterized them throughout history: prayer, repentance, and the proclamation of the gospel.

The Gospel of John lifts Jesus up as coming from God, being full of God, and speaking and ruling as God.

Only when we decrease and Christ increases will we have full joy.

Jesus didn't come to a neutral world. He came to those already dead and guilty to make some alive and free.

The new birth is the supernatural giving of divine life to a dead soul, and God accomplishes this great work through the means of gospel preaching.

If we depart from the traditional doctrine of the imputation of Christ’s righteousness we will diminish one of Christ’s great achievements, harm people who need this doctrine, and undermine the fruit of love.

Affections are to be prized, stirred, and renewed. Pastors labor alongside you and on your behalf, striving for your joy.

John Piper | John 3:16 represents a glorious love, but there is more to God’s love than the free offer of the gospel.

We have eternal life because Christ died in our place and because in him is life. He removes God’s wrath, and he supplies the everlasting life we don’t have.
