'God is Finishing His Mission,' John Piper Says Reflecting on Cross Conference

According to Anugrah Kumar, "Theologian John Piper, reflecting on the recently concluded Cross conference attended by about 3,600 college students, believes Christ's mission to the unreached people of the world is progressing towards its culmination."


...


Quoting from Operation World - 4, Piper writes that Patrick Johnstone, the founder of the reference book and prayer guide, mentioned in 1979 that the most difficult places for gospel breakthrough were Mongolia and Albania at the time. However, today there are more than 40,000 Mongolian believers, and Albania is open with churches growing. "Who among us, 30 years ago, could have envisioned over 100 million Chinese Christians, massive people movements in Iran, Algeria, and Sudan, breakthroughs in Mozambique, Cambodia, and Nepal, and the beginnings of freedom for hundreds of millions of oppressed in India?"

Evangelicalism is in the midst of a Calvinist revival. Increasing numbers of preachers and professors teach the views of the 16th-century French reformer. Mark Driscoll, John Piper and Tim Keller — megachurch preachers and important evangelical authors — are all Calvinist. Attendance at Calvin-influenced worship conferences and churches is up, particularly among worshipers in their 20s and 30s.

Can't Hear God Speak? Repent, says Henry Blackaby

The apostasy in the Church continues to deepen:

Can't Hear God Speak? Repent, says Henry Blackaby

I received the following comment from a reader on my recent Note of Repentance:

"At the Passion 2012 conference, Beth Moore, John Piper, Louie Giglio and
company taught/led an entire sports arena (45,000 college aged students) in
(attempting to 'hear' God's voice). My son's friends in attendance of this
conference told of a young girl standing outside the arena crying her eyes out
because she had not heard the audible voice of God as they had instructed.
Others tried to comfort her but were also distraught at not hearing a
thing.
