26:20 "As a pastor, I stand before the power of human wants in a kind of reverence, it is so demonically powerful." Wow. This is a mind-blowing sermon.
My, oh my, God knew exactly what I needed to hear today and this was it! Thank You Father that You love me enough to speak Your truth to my heart so that Ican be free from bondage! Please put Your axe to the need I have to get people's praise and having them like me all the time. Teach me Jesus to drink the living water that You always have to give. Your approval is what I need.......period! Amen.
Quote JOHN PIPER "God . . . brings about all things in accordance with his will. In other words, it isn’t just that God manages to turn the evil aspects of our world to good for those who love him; it is rather that he himself brings about these evil aspects for his glory (see Ex. 9:13-16; John 9:3) and his people’s good (see Heb. 12:3-11; James 1:2-4). This includes-as incredible and as unacceptable as it may currently seem-God’s having even brought about the Nazis’ brutality at Birkenau and Auschwitz as well as the terrible killings of Dennis Rader and even the sexual abuse of a young child . . . Quote to JOHN PIPER from the Word of God! I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel- 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse! Galatians 1:6-9 Truth in Love
