God’s Passion for His Glory

Christian Life  by 
John Piper

This book is an exposition of the essay written by Jonathan Edwards titled, “The End by which God created the World.” In that dissertation, Edwards proclaimed that God’s ultimate end is to manifest His glory in the happiness of his creations. In this book, John Piper explores the relevance of the truth presented by Edwards to our lives as Christians today.
This exposition has two parts. The first part is a eulogy to Edwards by Piper explaining the impact of the former on the latter’s life. The second part is like reading Edward’s work through someone’s formatted book with all the explanatory footnotes, definitions to obsolete words and philosophical ideas, and highlights of the most important sections. Piper presented this 300-year-old writing in a manner that a modern man can understand. May this book help us understand a treasure that may be old but is still a treasure.
