A dear friend of Mr. Piper’s (Mr. M. M—) writes to me: “I have only known the late J. J. Piper about six years. To know him was to love him—such a humble spirit, and although at times a great sufferer, one never heard a murmur. I owe him much as he led me into the work of corresponding and sending Testaments and Gospel literature to our soldiers during the War, and we had much fellowship over this work. I saw him for the last time two days before he died.... He then bid me a most affectionate farewell.... He had sent thousands of Testaments, and also Gospel booklets, and ‘Messages from God.’ He had some booklets which he wrote, printed in twelve different languages, and often as he had to lay his pen down by reason of suffering, he dispatched over five thousand letters and post cards to our lads in the army. He lived near to God, and I never knew his faith waver in God in anything.”
