John Piper taught/preached an outstanding message at T4G, Did Jesus Preach Paul’s Gospel? (The link takes you to Piper’s manuscript and to the audio.)

Update: Here is the video:

He argued from careful exegesis of Luke 18:9-14 that Jesus taught the imputation of his righteousness by grace alone through faith alone.

He concluded with seven implications:

  1. Jesus’ Gospel is also Paul’s
  2. Nothing we do is basis for God’s acceptance
  3. Our standing with God is based on Jesus, not us
  4. Transformation is the fruit, not root, of justification
  5. All our goodness is evidence and confirmation, not grounds
  6. The Gospel is for every person and every people
  7. Jesus gets the full glory

I am thankful for this message, which helped me to see and to sense the beauty of the gospel afresh.
