More quotes by Martyn Lloyd-Jones
You must go on to remind yourself of God - who God is, and what God is, and what God has done, and what God has pledged Himself to do.
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 can have knowledge, and you can be meticulous in your preparation but without the unction of the Holy Spirit you will have no power, and your preaching will not be effective.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The nearer a man gets to God, the greater he sees his sin.
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
You pray and make your requests made known unto God, and God will do something.' It is not your prayer that is going to do it, it is not you who is going to do it, but God. 'The peace of God that passeth all understanding'-He, through it all, 'will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus'.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Grace is favor shown to people who do not deserve any favor at all.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
I am not asking whether you know things about Him but do you know God, are you enjoying God, is God the centre of your life, the soul of your being, the source of your greatest joy? He is meant to be.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
If you can explain what is happening in a church, apart from the sovereign act of God, it is not revival.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
There is nothing which so certifies the genuineness of a man's faith as his patience and his patient endurance, his keeping on steadily in spite of everything.
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
Man was never meant to be a god, but he is forever trying to deify himself.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
There are powers that can counterfeit almost everything in the Christian life.
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
Human will-power alone is not enough. Will-power is excellent and we should always be using it but it is not enough. A desire to live a good life is not enough. Obviously we should all have that desire, but it will not guarantee success.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith always shows itself in the whole personality.
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
The devil is so subtle that he dominates man and persuades him at the same time that he is not being dominated.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith is the refusal to panic.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
If you doubt your sins have been forgiven, that in itself is sin.
