2 Questions for John Piper

I have asked these questions of several people who say they are "reformed" christians and thus far they've been unable to answer them. It is really curious to me why the questions seem so difficult for them. These are highly educated (theology degrees) people.

I believe John Piper is the intellectual leader of the "reformed theology" movement in America -- which is strong and growing by the way; most recently converting the leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention (the largest protestant denomination in America).

I visited Piper's website Desiring God and found nothing directly answering these questions. I also have sent a contact form to John Piper through his website to see if he will come right here and answer these questions. We'll see. If anyone has personal contacts with John Piper, please send this link to him. Here are the questions:


1. What thought, word or deed is required for salvation?

2. Can God bring a person to Him who never heard of Jesus?


These seem to be very basic questions. So why the inability to answer them?
