Quotes > John Piper I John 1:3-4 "Fellowship with Jesus shared with others is essential to fullness of joy." "We double our delight in God as we expand it in the lives of others." "Obedience is the irrepressible overflow in life of hose who have tasted and seen that the Lord is good." "We want to help you make God your TREASURE!" "Our God is not a watering trough. He is a mountain spring. Therefore, obedience is not a bucket brigade to feel his need." "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him." "Faith is the banking of our HOPE on the mercy of God." "The pursuit of every commandment is the pursuit of happiness." "Separation from Jesus means sadness. Restoration of fellowship means joy. Therefore we learn that no Christian can have fullness of joy without a vital fellowship with Jesus Christ. Knowledge about him will not do. Work for him will not do. We must have personal, vital fellowship with him; otherwise Christianity becomes a joyless burden." -Dr. John Piper Used with permission
