It\u2019s not the goal of the cross, but it\u2019s infinitely necessary. The ultimate goal of the cross is in 1 Peter 3:18: \u201cChrist suffered . . . that he might bring us to God.\u201d The end goal is enjoying God.<\/p>\n<p>Piper talked about the role of mystery. The Bible says now we see in a glass dimly, then face-to-face. What we know about God is so small compared to what we will know. What\u2019s the function of that statement about God? Getting saved is like being dropped into the mountain ranges of God\u2019s glory. At every cliff you see more and more glory. But this unknowing is a projection out of what you know. I believe in mystery . . .<\/p>\n<p>May the church become the pillar and buttress of truth, and therefore of joy, and therefore of love, and therefore display the glory of God and the supremacy of Christ in all things.<\/p>\n<p>So ended the conference with just our voices, singing:<\/p>\n<p>On Christ the solid rock I stand<br>All other ground is sinking sand<br>All other ground is sinking sand <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tim Challies has not yet published on this session, so again here are some quotes from New Attitude on the closing session: \u201cTears welled up in Piper\u2019s eyes as he talked about the cross: I don\u2019t like getting angry at people in evangelical churches.
