Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Martyn Lloyd-Jones

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
