Piper Up Now

September 25, 2011 by Matt Perman

Piper is starting his message now, “Let the Peoples Praise You, O God Let All the Peoples Praise You!” He is preaching from Psalm 67 and Genesis 12.

David Platt Up Now

September 24, 2011 by Matt Perman

Piper introduced David Platt with two things he loves about him most: his love for the Scriptures and passion for God’s glory among the nations.

Platt remarked how the passages he planned on speaking on are the same ones Louie Giglio went to last night — so maybe the Lord wants us to go deep into these passages.

Reading from Isaiah 6 now.

“There is no one like our God. It is folly to compare anything to our God. All of the earth is a continual explosion of the glory of God. ‘He brings the stars out one by one and calls them each one by one.’ And he is sovereign over all nations. Go to Isaiah 46. This is part of the purpose of Isaiah — to show the sovereignty and supremacy of God over the nations.”

This is a key point he is making: God’s sovereignty over nature is meant to buttress our confidence that God is sovereign over human history as well. We shouldn’t think “God is sovereign over rocks and trees and stars, but human history is out of his control.” He is sovereign over human history just as much as he is sovereign over the course of the stars and workings of nature.

Live Blogging the DG Conference

September 23, 2011 by Matt Perman

Since I’m here anyway, I think I’ll live blog the DG conference.

It’s on missions, and the theme is Finish the Mission.

Louie Giglio is up now.
