  • "But... but... Joel Osteen says that God wants me to prosper and be victorious in all my realtionships!"

    Haha! I love Piper! He's the man!

  • If only American churchmen could know the what it is to treasure Christ and not use Him as a means to give them what they're evil hearts really want (health, wealth, comfortable living agendas, they're best life now).

  • @12343590 Yes. Jesus was very clear - with God, anything is possible. Mark chapter 10 is the story he's referring to. All we need to do is come to Jesus, and say, "help".

  • A voice of God for this age. Indeed, the world has never come to Christ because we are wealthy....I came to CHrist because of poor people who were so joyful, fulfilled, holy inspite of the fact that they had nothing! God bless you John Piper, your sermons have blessed me so much...

  • So he says he remembers the young rich man. Did Piper go and sell everything he had and give it to the poor? I just find it amazing that everyone interjects their name where Jesus is giving out gifts or authority (Amen, Brother) but never interject their name where Jesus talks to the young rich man.

  • lol u betta stop foolin around wit Joel Osteen u gonna find yourself in hell. lol

  • can a rich man go to heaven?

  • This excerpt is perfect. Really this is what needs to be said.

  • Christ was about at counter-culture as it got in his day.

  • Well thats about as counter-contemporary-Christian­-culture as you can get
