Jesus: The Only Way to God: Must You Hear the Gospel to Be Saved? QUOTES

1 " When God appoints the gospel of his Son as the universal remedy for the guilt and corruption of mankind, and we diminish that, the gospel is diminished. And you cannot diminish the gospel without being diminished yourself. "

― John Piper , Jesus: The Only Way to God: Must You Hear the Gospel to Be Saved?

2 " If we are cut loose from the anchor of God's Word, we will not be free. We will be slaves of personal passions and popular trends. "

3 " Once upon a time, there was a safe, private place to take your controversial stand for Jesus. No more. If you are going to stand, you will be shot at—either figuratively or literally. "

― John Piper , Jesus: The Only Way to God: Must You Hear the Gospel to Be Saved?

4 " The teaching that diminishes the urgency for reaching all the unreached peoples of the world with the only news that can save them is a teaching that opposes people. Listen to these severe words spoken by the apostle Paul about what it means to "oppose all mankind." He says that those who killed the Lord Jesus "drove us out, and displease God and oppose all mankind by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved" (1 Thess. 2:14-16). This is what people do who tell us that the nations don't need to hear about Jesus in order to be saved. They oppose all mankind. Oh, how we need to let the Bible define what love does! "
