Is salvation a "ticket" or a "delight"?

John Piper hits the heart of true salvation, supremely valuing, enjoying, treasuring Christ, above all things. This is in contrast to only using Jesus as some ‘ticket’ to get you out of hell or to bring about your best life now. Instead Christ is to be valued above all because he is above all; it is this that gives you life now that is truly abundant (John 10.10).
