In the previous articles, we observed the structural parallels between John Piper's affectional model, what I have termed justification sola feels, and the errors of John MacArthur’s Lordship...

ICYMI: “Piper is a man with a deep pastoral heart. He wants his readers to be happy in God. He wants a faith that is vibrant and vital. Every Reformed believer should share that desire. We are not interested in a dead, cold orthodoxy that treats the gospel as a dry mathematical equation. Yet, as we turn to the final casualty of this affectional shift, we find that Piper’s solution for ‘dead faith’ kills the very thing that makes faith alive: its objective certainty.” –@ReformedArsenal @RScottClark @heidelcast @heidelbergrefo1 buff.ly/QWTVQy1

Excellent series. If none else, read this one: “By granting the Roman Catholic critique that sola fide is structurally prone to antinomianism unless faith is defined as an affectional virtue, Piper has functionally abandoned the empty hand of the Reformation.” —@ReformedArsenal

Excellent! “To command a sinner to love and treasure Christ as a prerequisite for justification is to mistake the law for the gospel. Loving God … is, after all, the first and greatest commandment, the ultimate summary of all our moral obligations toward God” — @ReformedArsenal

ICYMI: “Many defend Piper by suggesting that he is simply affirming that good works and spiritual affections are the inevitable fruit of a regenerate heart—a position entirely consistent with Reformed orthodoxy. But Piper is remarkably clear that this is not his project. He is not merely asking if affections accompany faith but whether they are ‘in the very exercise of faith itself.’” –@ReformedArsenal @RScottClark @heidelcast @heidelbergrefo1 buff.ly/hrkMrQc
