John Piper Quotes About Values

Quotes about: Values

• Satan's aim is to destroy our joy and trust and delight in God, and to make God look worthless in the world's eyes. Everytime someone forsakes God for the world, gets angry at God when part of the world is taken away from them, they highlight the world as valuable... and everytime someone stays with God, when the world is taken away, and praises God, they highlight the value and glory of God.

  John Piper

  Faith, Religious, Taken

• The further you go in the revealed thoughts of God, the clearer you see that God's aim in creating the world was to display the value of his own glory.

  John Piper

  Creating, World, Glory

• To love God does not mean to meet His needs, but rather to delight in Him and to be captivated by His glorious power and grace, and to value Him above all other things on earth. All the rest of the commandments are the kinds of things that we will do from our hearts, if our hearts are truly delighted with and resting in the glory of God's grace.
