Rick Warren Exposed
“Christ is more valuable than ANYTHING!” – John Piper
Rick Warren on spiritual maturity:
Rick Warrens ‘gospel’:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvyyEIEDqrQJohn MacArthur on Rick Warren’s ‘gospel’ in the Purpose Driven Life:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWijTIcftvw2 Timothy 4:1-5 (NASB, emphasis added):
1. I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:
2. preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.
3. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,
4. and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.
5. As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
Ask yourself this: “Does my Church preach the Gospel of Christ? Or does it preach a social ‘gospel’?” If your church preaches a social gospel, flee from that church! Find a good, solid Bible Preaching Church! I highly recommend checking out 9marks.org.

Also, from the comments of this video:
Read Morewheresmylife: From experience, I completely agree. I’ve even gone so far as to let the interviewer know that my faith in God comes first in my life. Then I let them know how that relates to that job. It means that I’m on time, give 100% and respect authority. It means I work with integrity, honesty and doing what I can to to make my boss’ job easier. God’s honored this. But you MUST live up to what you tell them. Don’t exaggerate. Remember, God is your Source, not any job. Not even money. God alone.
Next Week: Ask Pastor John Live
Read MoreA week from today we’ll be streaming our next live session of Ask Pastor John. If you aren’t familiar with the way we’ve been doing these recently, this is an event where John Piper hears and answers a variety of questions in front of a live viewing audience.
Where do the questions come from? They come from you! Anybody can submit a question, and the question can be about anything. Just make sure it’s less than 140 characters, though, since you have to send it through Twitter (and don’t forget to include the hashtag #apjwith it).
The event will run from 7:00pm to 8:30pm Central Time—primetime—March 31st on our live events webpage.
This could be a great opportunity to gather friends, family, roommates, or neighbors to ask and hear what God might have to say through Pastor John as he seeks to represent God’s word.
Why does sin continue to exist today?
For some reason I’ve been hearing and reading things related to this question lately. “Why does God allow sin to continue to exist today?” This year at Resolved 2009, John Piper preached two amazing sermons that beautifully answers this question. Combined it’s almost 2 hours long, but it is definitely well spent.
God’s Sovereignty Over Satan’s Fall and How Sin Serves the Glory of Christ.
