Piper on Romans 9-11

July 19, 2007

Joe,

The good people at Desiring God recently posted a series of messages from a four-part lecture series that John Piper did a few years ago on Romans 9-11. There is also a question-answer session.

Not everyone will like Piper’s…style. For instance, in the first message he says, ‘Most Arminians don’t have a clue how they got saved.’ In wrestling through issues of sovereignty and free will, I am learning that statements like that tend to alienate someone who disagrees to the point that it may be a stumbling block to their embracing the truth. I trust that, as has been the case with me, the matters addressed in Romans 9-11 are such a passion in Piper’s heart, that sometimes things come out more ‘edgy’ than he may have intended.

Regardless, these messages are well worth listening to. They will stretch your vision of God and, if God grants grace, enlarge your affection for Him.
