So refreshing. I like what he is saying a whole lot more than what I hear from those involved in Missional theology and Neo-Calvinism

I'm hoping this book gets better. So far, he is attempting to relate certain aspects of Jonah's story to a believer's life in current times, and it just isn't working for me; yet.

This boi wildin....

Really not sure about this guy's theology...

Piper is doing a marvelous job of breaking down how Wright's rebuttal of imputed righteousness makes no sense when simply presented in a law court setting. God's righteousness is mainly about bringing glory to His Great Name. If that is the true focus of righteousness, then it makes perfect sense for God's righteousness to be imputed to sinful man through the work of Jesus Christ.

The only way to relate to God and His love is anthropomorphically, or analogously. God is transcendent, and so is His love. He is otherly, but not wholly otherly. To be wholly otherly would be to have no relation with humans; but since we are created in His image, He is otherly, yet there can be some similarities. He condescends to help us communicate with Him, and help us understand His transcendent love.

Those robbed of healthy attachments in their younger years may be more prone to suffering than those who have had the "four s'". Healthy attachment is regained through the peace made through Jesus. Some parts of our being could still be warring against God, but Jesus wants those areas to have peace through an embodied relationship with Him and His body.
