     | 5,859 views

    Contributed by John Piper on Mar 29, 2007
    based on 10 ratings
     | 10,226 views

    The purpose of human marriage is temporary. But it points to something eternal, namely, Christ and the church. And when this age is over, it will vanish into the superior reality to which it points.

    You recall perhaps that my wife, Noël, said, “You cannot say too often that marriage is a model of Christ and the church” (see Ephesians 5:31-32). I said that I think she is right for three reasons. I’ll mention two. The first was that saying this lifts marriage out of the sitcom sewer and elevates ...read more

    Perhaps the toughest person to forgive is the unrepentant? More than that, why does God ask us to forgive the unrepentant when He doesn't? The Apostle Paul explains to us how we deal with such people in II Timothy 4:14-18 and Romans 12:17-21.

    A little boy was not exactly happy about going to church on Easter Sunday morning. His new shoes hurt, his tie pinched his neck, and the weather outside was just too good to be cooped up inside. As he sulked in the back seat of the family car, he complained to his parents: “I don’t see why we have ...read more

    When my son Bryan was small, sometimes he would go into a kind of daydream. He would sit there and seem to stare off into space, and if you spoke to him, he just wouldn’t hear.

    We have lots of good reasons to forgive others who hurt us, but the best reason to forgive is because God has forgiven us so much more. When we learn to appreciate the full extent of God's grace, we can practice giving away that grace to others.

    Matthew 18:21-35 The Best Reason to Forgive At some point, every one of us has been hurt, sometimes quite deeply. Maybe somebody here today is hurting. The question is, will you be able to forgive and let go, to move forward with your life? Forgiveness is a choice. You don’t have to forgive, but ...read more
