You Must Suffer – John Piper – One Passion

Posted by adamlepp in Life

So I was on Facebook today and saw that one of my friends has posted the video below.  It has an amazing message, so check it out.

Youtube description excerpt:

WATCH STORY from this SERMON HERE – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtV83_2alTc

When I first saw this sermon at the beginning of the year, it radically changed my life forever. The passion of Piper preaching on the subject of suffering was something I had never witnessed before in my life. The simple fact is, if revival ever happens, it will be because we throw away all of the care for our reputation. We will stop seeking the approval of man, and then we will suffer, either it be physical, or mainly verbal. Through those sufferings everyone will see Christ being magnified as the most valuable treasure. For Christ to be more valuable then what people think of you, is something every Christian must come to. I pray that your friends are able to look at you, and not see your laptop computer being more valuable then Christ. That they dont see everyone of your conversations directed to something other then Christ.

Here is the story part:

Excerpt:

This was a story told by Michael Card about Joseph, who is a Masai Warrior, who came to a Billy Graham convention where people heard of his story. This is a sermon excerpt of John Piper reading the story.
