More quotes by Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Grace is favor shown to people who do not deserve any favor at all.
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
Faith always shows itself in the whole personality.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
All teaching and all truth and all doctrine must be tested in the light of the scriptures.
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
...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
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 is the refusal to panic.
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
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
If you doubt your sins have been forgiven, that in itself is sin.
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
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
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.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith is a refusal to panic, come what may.
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
To love to preach is one thing to love to whom you preach is quite another.
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
The very God whom we have offended has Himself provided the way whereby the offense has been dealt with. His anger, His wrath against sin and the sinner, has been satisfied, appeased and He therefore can now thus reconcile man unto Himself.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
We need less travelling by jet plaes from congress to congress... but more kneeling and praying and pleading to God to have mercy on us, more crying to God to arise and scatter his enemies and make himself known.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
