I knew he had one son who was a complete atheist and went off the deep end and mocks Jesus and his father, I didn’t know he had another son who was lost as well so I will definitely be keeping Pastor Piper and his two sons in prayer

7 Reasons you should pursue full and lasting pleasure in God: 1. We are commanded by God to be happy in God. 2. Conversion to Christ is the awakening of a superior pleasure in God. 3. Being supremely satisfied in God is part of what saving faith is. 4. To find your superior satisfaction anywhere else but in God is the essence of evil. 5. Jesus’ teaching about self denial is based on this pursuit of joy. 6. You cannot love people the way you should if you are indifferent to your joy in God. 7. God is most glorified in you when you are most satisfied in Him.

Amen! God is the most glorified in me when I am most satisfied in Him. Having time with Him is the most joyful and happiest time in my life. 💕 God bless, Pastor John and all of you who are listening this amazing sermon from Him. 🙌🏼

I pray that I find my satisfaction in God, I intellectually know nothing in the world will satisfy other than God and try to act that way. I trust God can and will open my heart and reveal his goodness and glory to me in a way that will satisfy. I don't always feel that, and I am tired of whipping my thought patterns. I rather act like I love God by following his commands, knowing God strengthens and aids me in that desire, and I will leave it to God to work on my heart.

I'm so grateful for these full length sermons.... I've found myself quite housebound for the past year and Youtube and other video platforms are a huge "escape" for me... and 95% of the content out 'there' is soooo toxic, that having this sermon play and be heard for the last hour has been magical.... I've been struggling massively in my walk, and you'd think living a life quite secluded might make it easier.... it totally doesn't... Thank you so much for uploading/sharing this.

No preacher has such passion for Christ which encourages me to always pursue Christ. Phil 1:20-23 ♥️

God is the supreme delicacy that everyone should enjoy for now and always. Always satisfying!

Your concept of Christian Hedonism is spot on. If people truly knew what heaven is going to be like, their hearts would be circumcised immediately.

I really like the way he starts his sermon. Testing people's message through God's Word (the Bible) is the most accurate way to judge and that is the rightful way to know if someone's message is really from God.

Thank you Pastor John Piper for your joyful Ministry and Testimony :) PSALM 16:11 You make known to me the path of life: in Your Presence there is Fullness of joy: at Your Right Hand are pleasures Forevermore. Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Amen

Piper is amazing. He studies the puritans, like Edwards and interprets them for our ears. I long to know the fullness of God and to know a joy that goes beyond human comprehension
