Beyond the Bounds: Open Theism and the Undermining of Biblical Christianity
Outstanding defense of orthodoxy October 12th 2004 by in OK
I feel this book is needed tremendously for the health and survival of the Orthodox church today. John Piper is as trustworthy as they come these days, and the very fact that his name is on this work drew me to it. The essays in this work define and discredit "Open Theism" from various angles. There are certain issues that should be discussed before a son or daughter leaves for college, and this is certainly one of them. Your children stand the chance of being ambushed by someone who has fallen for this non-sensical fallacy. Guard yourself, your family and your church against this heresy.

The Justification of God: An Exegetical and Theological Study of Romans 9:1-"23
Exquisite work on justification October 19th 2004 by in OK
John Piper is no light-weight in the realm of theology. I don't think I had been adequately preapared for a work of this calibur. In fact if you can't read, at least, Greek; don't waste your money on this work. Learn the Biblical languages and then pick this up. The word studies Piper does are far beyond what you'll see when you read most theologians who are circulated in bookstores. John Piper has set the bar high in the debate over justification. Higher, I feel, than most christian leaders are willing or able to meet. That being the case I feel that anyone who wishes to engage in a theological debate should follow Piper's lead and move from petty bickering to serious exegesis.
One of my favorite features in this work is with every section Piper breaks down the passage in question then begins his exegesis of that passage. He also finds it necessary to move into the Old Testament for several chapters to put the issue of God's righteousness into historical perspective. All-in-all this is an amazing work that should be the rule rather than the exception. Let's make it so.

Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist
WOW! August 31st 2006 by Anonymous in Jackson, TN
This book is an amazing read for anyone who wishes to grow closer to the Lord. Piper hits the nail on the head as he reveals our true purpose in life and our response to God. When you respond to God in the right ways, He gives you the desires of your heart!

Future Grace
Taste and see August 31st 2006 by Anonymous in Jackson, TN
Another great release from Piper, with great applicability. Piper discovers and leads you on a path to reveal the true way to overcome sin: Trust in the Lord. With eloquent theology and bare bones practicality, this is a must have for a Christian who desires holiness.

Finally Alive
A Cautionary Note February 17th 2009 by Gary in BC, Canada
The soul’s regeneration, or “being born again,” is inextricably linked to predestination. I believe that this doctrine is a two edged sword. I grew up being taught to pray for “a new heart” so that I could believe and be saved. Implied was that regeneration was primary and something felt/ experienced so that one would know that he/ she was elect and could then confidently respond to the gospel offer. I suffered under this depressing delusion for many years and suffered major long-term depression because of it. I would recommend Matt Rogers’ “Losing God” Intervarsity, 2008 as a similar case, and a study of what can happen. I am pleading for great care and gentleness in “reviving” this doctrine. Pastors and well-meaning brothers and sisters may well conclude that they or many of their fellow Christians are self-deceived, and this must be treated with the utmost delicacy. The doctrine of predestination, and the fact that we could never have acted faith without God working in us, are what JI Packer has called the family secret. It is also what Spurgeon described as what we learn when we enter the gate of salvation under the banner, “Whosoever will, may come,” only to look back at the gate through which we came and see, “Predestined from before the foundation of the world.” When one is appreciative of the one thing needful, the enormity of this being cast into doubt can lead to serious clinical depression, causing needless suffering. Many have suffered on this road.
