John Piper is what I refer to as a pseudo spiritual snob. A person’s personality that is repugnant to him is cause for condemning the the good work of that individual. Piper has sacrificed his spirit to his ego. Unfortunate...

Piper has never come close to experiencing the vicious 24/7 onslaught of evil President Trump has dealt with.

Yet Trump fights and wins against the forces of evil, moving the ball forward and preserving the Constitution so Piper can criticize him.

I’ve never cared for Piper’s form of legalism, but his current statement reveals his lack of judgement.

Perhaps he is a closet liberal who hopes to sway believers from Trump.

No sale.

Beth Moore didn’t vote for DONALD Trump either!

Meh!

If Piper is associated with the New Apostolic Reformation, then I got no time for the dude either.

Yes, I have considered that. I think it daily when I read what the Pope has just said. :(
I guess I have limited exposure to Beth through a few Bible studies, I confess I have not followed her beyond that...

The Pope, Piper and others are too. God is getting ready to drain the swamp in His church!

Does anyone know Piper’s opinion on Mitt Romney who had the mannerisms that Piper wants but was an advocate of a clearly-false gospel? I know that Piper would prefer someone like Mike Pence but was he okay with Mitt Romney?

Piper probably loved Jimmy Carter.

Tithes are down through the church community. Government money to resettle immigrants, I believe, is the mainstay now. Pastors will not preach against their pocketbook... well, some that is.

“Beth Moore” ??? PULEEEZE!

Women fall for this witch’s bullshirt. She’s a fake, phony, false prophet.

The church we attend is independent, started by college professors who wanted a conservative church. They seem to have plenty of money. I was told “We have plenty of money to do what we want to do but not enough to do what the congregation wants us to do(expand buildings). If they want it badly enough, the money will appear”

It helps when you don’t have to kick money upstairs to the denomination

I am not aware that he ever wrote a similar article when Romney was the Republican candidate for President.

Piper is not a liberal....far from it

He’s just an egomaniac

I found a piece by Piper encouraging people to vote in the 2012 election without stating a preference.

You’re pinning this on Calvinists? I haven’t met one yet who wasn’t pro-Trump. The idea that God only really loves His elect and hates all the infidels isn’t exactly a liberal doctrine.
