John Piper - Demonic power and indwelling sin

[IchristiaanI]

This is so true

[Licmycat]

There are demons and people possessed by them on the internet, especially here at YouTube.

[CallmeMell]

wow i had no idea

[patriciacarrasco]

wow look at all these Satanists in this video...may God lift their spiritual darkness so they can hear this message in Jesus name!

[NaturalBornKillahs]

@patriciacarrasco did you christianity and cathoclism rose outta the earliest organized satanic religion? (paganism) true fact christmas, easter, new years, all pagan holidays, you are a satanist n you aint even kno it, the upside down cross iz a trick 4 people 2 think that the right side up cross ACTUALLY means something, really ALL cross any cross iz satanic in nature, that iz truth

[WorshipInTruth]

@NaturalBornKillahs That is catholicism, not sure why you are trying to throw it on Christianity as a whole.

[UrukEngineer]

This is utter rubbish. There is no evidence for god nor for satan. This kind of scare tactics is immoral and frankly disgusting.

Shame on you Piper!

[sammysalter]

@UrukEngineer #facepalm

[UrukEngineer]

@sammysalter "#facepalm" LOL

[mastakur]

@UrukEngineer hahaha brain washed troll LOL

[gilbert4321]

@UrukEngineer satan only wages wars on people who follow Jesus Christ. He's doesn't care about people already on the road to destruction.

[UrukEngineer]

@gilbert4321 satan does not wage war on anyone. There is absolutely no evidence to support the hypothesis that satan exists.

[Dvader64909]

@UrukEngineer  be careful for the evidence you look for

[nkim114]

@UrukEngineer Keep in mind that one of the demons' greatest weapon in the US is making people believe they don't exist. The devil works in different ways in different contexts. Demons work very intentionally and strategically. Look at countries around this world and there are many reports of demons more obviously manifesting themselves because those places are more spiritual. Whether it is fear or distracting you with worldly things, God is not being glorified and that's their goal.

[UrukEngineer]

@nkim114 "Keep in mind that one of the demons' greatest weapon in the US is making people believe they don't exist."

That is an outrageous claim. Do you have evdence to support it?

Can you see that without being able to prove your point, your advocacy of such a bizarre worldview makes you seem like a total fruitcake - out of touch with reality?

[nkim114]

@UrukEngineer You're right. I don't have any evidence that will make you believe. But I don't think it's because the evidence isn't there. God is real. Satan is real. Spiritual warfare is real. Beware of asking questions for the sake of asking - slippery slope of relativism where there are no absolute truths. Also, you are missing my point. Satan will do all he can to keep people away from God.

[nkim114]

@UrukEngineer @UrukEngineer I will just say this. You're probably a smart guy. It's easy to find flaws, point out premises, and prove people wrong. Prove yourself right. I encourage you to think deeply and look for that absolute truth. What's the point of finding out how things are not true if you don't really care about what is true. If you really care, you will take the time to look into it. I have faith that God is real and His Word is inerrant. Check out Reason for God. Argues both sides.

[Dvader64909]

@gilbert4321 100% agreed

[rosefroggie13]

did you know that worrying can be a sin if it changes your heart and satan gets control of your emotional feelings. With that said everyone sins and has indwelling sin because you know your not perfect and somedays you worry more then others. So over look yourself and don't let worrying control you...

[zamyrabyrd]

Amen, brother.

Just for those who think that Christianity is an enemy of knowledge, the monks in the early Middle Ages preserved the knowledge of the ancients by copying texts.

Fake science however has been perpetrated by oppressive regimes in the 20th century - the master race theory of the Nazi's and the transmission of acquired characteristics by the Soviets. Modern mind control is based on fake gender studies. There is no contradiction between faith and knowledge, when both are true.

[Mitzi73]

Every Christian should read "The Screwtape Letters" by C.S. Lewis and this video will make so much sense to you.

[marcrocksout]

Look at how many people aren't listening to him behind him

[UnrealHelix]

Another solid message thru Dr Piper.

[tarnacle88]

Thank You, LORD. We praise You. You are HOLY, PURE and ALMIGHTY.

[Chibithy]

Zen does it better :P

[MyLightIsJesus]

Amen, This is such an important topic because people don't know how much they are being attacked at every angle. Always be on Guard because Satan wants you to think he is not there and blind you even more from the truth.

[memast5]

Greater is he that is in me than He that is in the world. God's power is greater than the power of the devil. Colosians says Jesus disarmed principalities and powers and made a show over them triumphing openly over them in it!

[Skibbaaa]

very charismatic speaker

[celal777]

i'm sure he's correct but does the Bible encourage to "imagine" the powers of these things as a means to our sanctiification ?

[jeddah91]

I dont know the morals or character of this man. But he is leading people away from Father. He might be deceived himself, or he might be enjoying an elevated position, it is not for me too judge this.

But I can say, Father gave me HIS truth in a blessing, and what this man is preaching is error or ignorance or deceit, but it is not Fathers truth.

What you need to find wont be found in a book, it is IN YOU, that is where Father put it.

[talitha00cumi]

@jeddah91 Sounds like you are in the occult--no matter what you might call it. I spent decades in the occult, studying many of its branches under differing names and descriptions. You are being deceived. The only father you are following is the one who, about 6,000 years ago (according to recorded history), told people that they could find god within. He lied. They believed the lie. He laughed. And he's laughing at you. Your "father" is named Satan, the Father of Lies.

[jeddah91]

That desire is that you should take it within you to desire to know him. You can never know Father because man was cut off from Father. But the desire will bring a blessing, this blessing will grace you again with access to father. This blessing will teach you "truth" Fathers truth and make you WISE.

Father isn't interested in being worshiped, he desires that you Love him again.

We are his children, and he desires fro you to know him and be blessed again. He is far greater than any book or man.

[jeddah91]

This man preaching has no access to the divine, or he wouldn't be teaching this deceit, this error. He would have Fathers truth, and what he is speaking here is far from truth.Not MY truth, Fathers truth, I am wise enough now to understand how ignorant I am.

And this teaching here in this video is 100% error. There is a way back to Father, but not in a book, or another man, or even a church. Father doesn't desire mans many invented religions, he does have a desire he would like to be fulfilled.

[jeddah91]

There are many beings here with mankind, some watch & wait for man to discover how to be graced with access to Father again.They have a responsibility too assist those that have fulfilled there purpose in Flesh.

There are too many too out a number too. there are others here as well, man calls them angels & demons but this is not accurate.They are beings of light, some DIVINE, others not, and man calls them. But he doesn't know this or even how he calls them, and they have strong influence.

[jeddah91]

Spiritual dullness? No its called being IGNORANT, when man was cut-off from the divine, he fell in grace, and death was the results, he also forgot Father, in ignorance, because now "cut off" he has no truth, or wisdom, that is a blessing given by Father , no one else ever.Man has his truth & Father is TRUTH,.

Oh-- and this devil character, you know Satan, is 100% BS, the purpose is "fear" to drive the ignorant to the church, where they will be saved from the devil & Sin.

[jeddah91]

Sin was mistranslated from the original Hebrew word "HET"

And when properly translated simply means too "err or miss the mark" so much for salvation from SIN. But it does fill the pews doesn't it

Man needs salvation, but not form invisible sin, he requires salvation from Death.

Man was cut off from Father, and the result is death. There is way grace offered, but it isn't Jesus, and it isn't forgiveness for SIN. Jesus was showing this grace, and was killed for doing so. This man has no truth

[wntngtlrn]

The Satanist motto "Do as thou wilt"

-This includes and allows ritualistic murder, and attacking people with demons

Christ's motto "Love your God with all your heart and thy neighbor as thyself"

-This is only a glimpse of the overpowering love of God whom we are all servant to whether we like it or not. God would not be God if he were not omnipotent would he?

The satanists greatest virtue is lying (ask them), and satan is the father of lies. We must pray for those who are truly deceived.

[pivotmasterofdoom]

John declares with some authority the truth about where we find ourselves. There is something in us that denies the Otherness of God and His Divinity. When the devil came to Christ he could not influence Him because there was nothing of the devil in Him. Would we all be so free and transparent to the reality of God. Also, we would not be capable of recognizing the true nature of God if we did not need healing, deliverance, etc. The seriousness of the human condition shows us what truly ails us.

[jeddah91]

@pivotmasterofdoom

The non divine could not temp Jesus because of the blessing Jesus received from Father. While Jesus was still aware an in contact with the non divine, it could no longer influence him, because he was no longer cut off from the divine. So Jesus was no longer ignorant, and could not be influenced..There is no Devil, there is ignorance from being cut off from Father, and there is ,access to Fathers divine light which restores wisdom, and LIFE. You will find this access IN YOU

[foreverblunted718]

@wntngtlrn as i said before how DELUDED christians are, i actually pity you, for you are ignorant slaves who WORSHIP something you've never seen, while Satanists do not worship, we see Satan Lucifer as magnificent being with a golden aura who was NEVER an angel like xtains would have u believe. but just like everything in that scum of earth book aka the bible, its full of lies, deception and misinformation.

u think u know our beliefs however you have no idea Satan is the LIGHT.

joyofSatan[.]com

[talitha00cumi]

@foreverblunted718 You've never seen Satan; how can you worship a being you've never seen? You visualize him as you like, yet you've never seen him. You DO worship him--a created being--no matter what you call it. (Tip: use a dictionary & thesaurus.) Satan is described in the Bible as a being of great beauty--but pure evil. His main tool to lure in the prideful, greedy, and foolish is deception. You, young person, are being duped.

[666Pestilince666]

HAIL SATAN

[krrrruptidsoless]

Anything you don't know is demonic and anything you do is just knowledge. They say god is everything and they want you to know god. So they want you to know everything. Belief is you do know but you just don't know you do. You can find god who does know everything and follow him until you find all the answers. And then you disbelieve. And people that know more decide to guide you and turn you into know-it -alls that don't.

[womensman87]

Demons are our original gods and they want to bring knowledge and power to the human race. Christianity was created to try and distract us from that knowledge so that all the occult power can be in the hands of the elite so that they can enslave the human race. He is not opening your eyes to the truth and there is nothing spiritual about Christianity.

See exposingchristianity(.)com for more information.

[talitha00cumi]

@womensman87 You need to do your homework, son. Do historical research--don't just read websites based on opinion and perhaps going as far as to cite other sites or books that are based not on fact but on opinion. The information is out there. Educate yourself--you sound ignorant and silly spewing fantasy as fact.

[GreenFalcon1000]

lol this guys nuts! he has no idea what he saying! and is he saying not to feel safe and healthy?

well thats another Xtian for ya!

Hail Satan And The True Gods!!!

exposingchristianity(dot)com

[kthorn612]

You should be aware that those who truly control demons in the present day are the top Jewish Rabbis with their Goetic magic and the Masonic-Christians who use the Enochian magic checkerboard in the masonic lodges of the world.

[foreverblunted718]

@kthorn612 LOL a jew could never control a Demon. you do understand by Demon you are talkin about the original Gods of egypt, sumeria, and rome. They were labeled as demons by jewish propaganda. When you think of a Demon you probably think, rubbery wings, horns, red eyes and a tail while this couldn't be further from the truth, demons are beautiful beings that uphold the LIGHT not the darkness as christians believe, this is why xtians are so deluded.

exposingchristianity[.]com

[sdorn963]

@foreverblunted718 The only being that has any control over Satan and demons is God. Demons do not uphold the light. They are fallen angels that were cast out of Heaven with Lucifer. There is no Light in Darkness, and no darkness in Light. The Bible tells us that these things are true. The Bible is the Word of God. Satan is the great liar who will always appear as an angel of the light to decieve those that do not know better.

[gilbert4321]

@sdorn963 Careful It could be bad to refer to satan as that name because its a honourable name. Lucifer means Light bringer

[talitha00cumi]

@kthorn612 No such thing as Masonic-Christian. A true Christian--one who follows Christ & doesn't sit in church on Sundays as a pew-warmer--won't be in the Masons, as masonry is antithetical to Christianity. To be a Christian, you must realize your sin is sin against a perfect, holy God, repent of your sin (turn from it), ask God's forgiveness, and put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Most people "believe" in Jesus. So does Satan. They are no more Christian than he is.

[talitha00cumi]

@foreverblunted718 Do your homework. Civilization flourished, women were treated better than anywhere at any time, violence was lower--everything was better wherever Christianity was strong. DO YOUR HOMEWORK! When Judeo-Christian values are set aside, the culture starts a downward slide in every way imaginable. You sound very foolish as you have not done the research.

[foreverblunted718]

@talitha00cumi And civilizations did not flourish under Satanic Pagan rule? Look at the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. The FIRST civilization on record were the Sumerians who called their main God Enki, also known as Satan. Do your research. Violence was lower? Despite billions of people who died under the name of your god? Despite knowledge/science not being allowed to grow. Culture starts a down-ward slide? Research civilizations BEFORE the plague of christianity my friend

-> tinyurl[.]com/253747

[Brightstar27]

@foreverblunted718 Your argument seems to be: 1) Societies before Jesus worshipped other gods. 2) These societies flourished to a certain degree. 3) Therefore Christianity is false.

How does the coclusion logically follow from the two premeses?

[foreverblunted718]

@Brightstar27 1) yes, thats right 2) these civilizations advanced and innovated fields of math science and culture unlike the christan dark ages that still believed the earth was flat. 3) my agruement is this, chritanity is used as a tool to control the masses, mostly by fear. just read a history textbook about the dark ages where fear ran rampant and the church controlled the people. im sure you would love to go back to those days. the reason jesus says to submit because he wants u as a slave

[Brightstar27]

@foreverblunted718 I just happen to have srtudied ancient history myself and what you are proposing is nothing more than historical fiction. Early Christinaity flourished within the Roman Empire and it survived even though it was a small, persecuted people for over three hundred years, having become one of the most influential movements today.

You're correct that the Roman Catholic Church did do alot of moral evil in the past, but this is not BIBLICAL Christianity. God desires TRUE worshipers.

[foreverblunted718]

@Brightstar27 ill respect your views if you respect mine, and im not trying to push my beliefs however ill ask you to read this:

exposingchristianity com

just add a " . "

one of the worst things to happen by Christianity is how science and reason were held back for centuries. Free thought wasnt allowed and the exchange of logical scientific ideas were regarded as heracy, punishable by death. Satanism goes hand in hand with science logic and ethical morals

[SAUNDERSacts2618]

@talitha00cumi Amen

[darkness8920032002]

i fell asleep.... what a scary waste of time this man is! i dont believe we need to be preached to too believe in god. I believe in him but i dont have to be convinced.

[nandansho]

This guy reminds me of Oral Roberts who taught me a false Christian can laugh and cry at the same time.

[ROGER459]

They are called... STRONGHOLDS... and the Solution is... "2Corinthinians 10:3-to-6".

Submit & Resist...! (Jamess 4:7) Therefore submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

[k1111117]

I am praying God grants you the power through the precious to finish your race well! may God bless and prepare you for your soon coming sabbatical.

[InSlaveryToChrist]

We are to flee from the culture and to seek holiness! We are to abhor the companion of the ungodly! We think our minds are so competent! We're taught from childhood to think our wills are sovereign over the inclinations of our hearts, when the Bible teaches just the opposite! (Prov. 23:7, Gen. 6:5)

[InSlaveryToChrist]

"A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished." [Prov. 22:3]

Oh that we just knew what evil force there constantly exists around us! Let us wake up and put on Jesus Christ to protect us from this worldy pleasure producing temptation that we're so compromised with! Ignorance and self-pity have become so normal in our lives...
