Recently, in answer to a comment, I posted contradictory writings from John Piper on the new birth. I showed how he could write in one breath how regeneration precedes faith and then make statements that make faith a part or means of regeneration. Well, notice these statements from Piper.
"Faith is the way we experience being born of God."
"So we summed the entire message last week like this: In the new birth, the Holy Spirit supernaturally gives us new spiritual life by connecting us with Jesus Christ through faith." ("What Happens in the New Birth?" Part 2)

More contradiction in doctrine? Does this not contradict his statements that faith follows regeneration? You be the judge.
