What is the view of suicide at BBC or in the BGC that Piper is in? I had a friend just kill himself and wondered what the whole deal is about. -Bill...
I'll be interested to see the theology of the responses-and it is an important question theologically. However, my first response is the biblical necessity to...
It is a good question, and I don't know much to say about it except two things: 1.) Even suicide is an attempt to be happy. Everyone wants to be happy, and...
This is originally a quote (paraphrased) from Blaise Pascal and used by Piper in his book Desiring God. Pascal said that everyone wants to be happy and does...
... Yep I was thinking of that quote but couldn't remember where I heard it. CD You're a good person? Yeah, right! ;-) Prove it: TenThousandDollarOffer.com...

David Wells seems to be getting together with some of the ECT folks to come up with a new document........ [Oddly, I first read about it a few days back at...
Good morning: I've been reading some views that purport to be based on "Pauline Dispensationalism". Although John Piper is not mentioned by name it is very...
Dolly, may I ask that you be more specific? Who are you reading? Also, Piper does not subscribe to Covenant Theology. I will be delighted to offer some...

He absolutely rejects the idea of two peoples of God that is basic to Dispensationalism. Yet, he couldn't be called a complete Covenant Theologian because he...
But (in addition to my previous response), he is definitely pre-millenial. From: pipertalk@yahoogroups.com [mailto:pipertalk@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of...
Dear Doug, You wrote; "He also doesn't like the total disregard for the 10 Commandments that is inherant in the New Covenant system." The statement is very...
I guess I probably should have used the words directly from his website to be clearer what I meant. This is what the article says on his website regarding his...
Greetings Piper-talkers! Perhaps this post only has local implications, but it is certainly a heated topic here in Southern California, especially Orance...
On Christmas Day, 2007 I celebrate something that happened 50 years ago, because of Someone who came to live among us about 2011 years ago. And I thank God for...
Hi PiperTalkers! I can remember how amazing the blessings from God were when I was following along with John Piper's exposition of the book of Romans. Those...
Dear Stephen, Thanks for the "heads up!" and you be sure to tell Dr. Morey we appreciate his keen insights into God's Word. Were these recordings made when he...
Moe, I'll have to ask him and get back to you on that. I believe the church was New Life Bible Church where the recording took place. I'm a native West-Coaster...
