What Jesus demands of the World
Christian Life by
John Piper
John Piper curates the many demands of Jesus from the four Gospels in his book What Jesus Demands from the World. The book begins with John introducing the demands in a redemptive and historical context and then examines these demands as he makes progress. The book is written in a thoughtful and accessible manner, making it meditative for believers who want to know more about Jesus. Piper argues that the four Gospels are filled with demands from Jesus which is a way of showing what he expects from us. These are not harsh demands with a selfish origin and intent to control but rather directions for good and satisfaction. It can be said that these loving demands are a treasure of trust. This book is a perfect guide for new believers as well as mature believers to whom it serves as a reminder to refresh their faith in God’s plan.
