'I just wish that Piper would not lower himself to bring politics into the pulpit. God deserves better.'
That is a quote from a 'conservative Reformed' man when he was commenting on this clip.
Made me want to puke.
I asked our small group Sunday night how 36 years have passed, we've had countless "Walks for Life" and "Right to Life" campaigns and yet this shame still lingers upon our nation. Does it seem that these Christian activities have been ineffective? Who needs another Walk for Life? Am I missing something?

Wow. That is absurd. Since when was murder a political issue? Since when was it a political issue to be avoided? Disgusting.'I just wish that Piper would not lower himself to bring politics into the pulpit. God deserves better.'

It has been a political issue ever since Roe v. Wade. Or so we are told. The sad thing is that many in the church have drunk the Kool-Aid.
He also went out of his way to be gracious and submissive to Obama.Wow. That is absurd. Since when was murder a political issue? Since when was it a political issue to be avoided? Disgusting.

It is an especially ridiculous accusation to make, given that Piper is not a political preacher.
Whoever made that comment should be ashamed of himself. To claim that abortion is merely a political issue is the rhetoric of the godless.'I just wish that Piper would not lower himself to bring politics into the pulpit. God deserves better.'

Psalm 10:17-18
17 O LORD, You have heard the desire of the humble;
You will strengthen their heart, You will incline Your ear
18 To vindicate the orphan and the oppressed,
So that man who is of the earth will no longer cause terror.
Love the clip; but wonder if it is fruitless to EXPECT the world to be anything but the world...to do anything outside of what its father, the devil, does or would do...
simply a thought...not a statement
2 Kings 10 shows us that the unbelieving idolater Jehu was used by God to wipe out Baalism in Israel. Why could he not do that today?

Sorry, I know this is completely off topic, but why do you say Jehu was unbeliever? He did not forsake the sins of idolarty, but he did seem to be a believer in Jehovah.
And the LORD said to him, "Call his name Jezreel, for in just a little while I will punish the house of Jehu for the blood of Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel. (Hos 1:4 ESV)
But Jehu did not turn aside from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin--that is, the golden calves that were in Bethel and in Dan. (2Ki 10:29 ESV)
for which he was judged:But Jehu was not careful to walk in the law of the LORD, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not turn from the sins of Jeroboam, which he made Israel to sin. (2Ki 10:31 ESV)
In those days the LORD began to cut off parts of Israel. Hazael defeated them throughout the territory of Israel: 33 from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the Valley of the Arnon, that is, Gilead and Bashan. (2Ki 10:32-33 ESV)
I asked our small group Sunday night how 36 years have passed, we've had countless "Walks for Life" and "Right to Life" campaigns and yet this shame still lingers upon our nation. Does it seem that these Christian activities have been ineffective? Who needs another Walk for Life? Am I missing something?
btw, did Piper include himself when he said "There are those of us who wept for joy at your Inauguration"?

The Lord can use anyone for His purposes. It is one reason why I think the Church needs more OT history in her preaching. 2 Kings 10 shows us that the unbelieving idolater Jehu was used by God to wipe out Baalism in Israel. Why could he not do that today?

I wondered that as well. He doesn't say who the "those of us" is that he had in mind, and I would suggest that should be little reason to have rejoiced at this man's election. Nonetheless, Piper comes back to his point by directly confronting the magistrate on the abominable sin and praying for conversion.

I think it is possible to rejoice in the fact that the United States has gone so far beyond past racism that an African-American was elected President, without implying that we are blessed by the person of Barack Obama as President.
To keep using my (ever present on the mind) analogy - we could rejoice in Jehu's purge of Baal, without being happy that he ended up as king.
