What is the chief end of preaching? I like to think it is this: It is to give men and women a sense of God and His presence.

More quotes by Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The worst thing that can happen to a man is to succeed before he is ready.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Prayer, in many ways, is the supreme expression of our faith in God.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
If you look at your past and are depressed it means that you are listening to the devil.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
If in a Christian pulpit you have no business saying, I suggest to you No! These things I declare to you.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The glory of the gospel is that when the church is absolutely different from the world, she invariably attracts it.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith is this extraordinary principle which links man to God faith is this thing that keeps a man from hell and puts him in heaven it is the connection between this world and the world to come faith is this mystic astounding thing that can take a man dead in trespasses and sins and make him live as a new being, a new man in Christ Jesus.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The Gospel is open to all the most respectable sinner has no more claim on it than the worst.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
We all tend to go to extremes some rely only on their own preparation and look for nothing more others, as I say, tend to despise preparation and trust to the unction, the anointing and the inspiration of the Spirit alone. But there must be no either/or here it is always both/and. These two things must go together.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Conviction is not repentance conviction leads to repentance. But you can be convicted without repentance.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Have you realized that most of your unhappiness in life is due to the fact that you are listening to yourself instead of talking to yourself?
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Be still, and know that I am God. We must not interpret that 'Be still' in a sentimental manner. Some regard it as a kind of exhortation to us to be silent but it is nothing of the sort. It means, 'Give up -or 'Give in' and admit I am God'. God is addressing people who are opposed to Him.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
First of all, the evangelical is one who is entirely subservient to the Bible. This is true of every evangelical. He is a man of one book he starts with it he submits himself to it this is his authority.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
You are either a Christian or you are not a Christian you cannot be partly a Christian. You are either dead or alive you are either born or not born.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
...There is a great need of more familiarity with the Scriptures and their teaching in order that we may be crushed to our knees with a sense of humility and be made to cry to God that He would visit us again.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The devil's one object is so to depress God's people that he can go to the man of the world and say: There are God's people. Do you want to be like that?
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
To be a Christian is not only to believe the teaching of Christ, and to practice it it is not only to try to follow the pattern and example of Christ it is to be so vitally related to Christ that His life and His power are working in us. It is to be in Christ, it is for Christ to be in us.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith always shows itself in the whole personality.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The ultimate cause of spiritual depression is unbelief. For if it were not for unbelief, even the devil could do nothing. It is because we listen to the devil instead of listening to God that we go down before him and fall before his attacks.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
There is nothing more foolish or self-defeating than for a Christian to say that he is not interested in doctrines.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Grace is favor shown to people who do not deserve any favor at all.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
