Romans 8: 5-17 The Sons of God

D. Martyn Lloyd - Jones

Hardcover

Description: This volume deals with momentous questions such as the doctrine of Sanctification and the baptism with the Holy Spirit. It, therefore, deals with matters which are not only crucial in the living of the Christian life, but also highly controversial.^^I have tried to state fairly views which have been very popular but which I have felt compelled to reject. We can all thank God that we are not saved by our understanding; nevertheless, the Scriptures were written for instruction, and it is our business to grapple with them. The greater our understanding the greater will be our enjoyment of this new "life in the Spirit."^^I do not apologize for summarizing so frequently the main thrust of the Apostle's majestic argument, for the greatest danger is to "miss the wood because of the trees." The same applies to my constant endeavor to compare "Scripture with Scripture."^^Whatever the reader may feel, I have to confess that the preaching of these sermons gave me greater joy than anything in my long experience as a preacher. I thank God that I have experienced something of this again in preparing them for publication. God grant a like experience to others.

About The Author: Born in Cardiff, Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981) was a practicing physician until leaving medicine to become the minister of a Welsh Presbyterian Church.
Minister of Westminster Chapel and co-founder of both InterVarsity Fellowship and the Banner of Truth Trust, this brilliant Welshman was arguably the greatest evangelical preacher of the 20th century.

Best remembered for the power of his sermons in an age of spiritual decline and apathy, Dr Lloyd-Jones exercised his formidable intellect in the service of a thoroughly biblical faith, inspiring his contemporaries to think through the implications of their beliefs for both Church and world.

Dr Lloyd-Jones never tired of calling the Church to revival, to foundational doctrines and to a prayerful zeal for authentic apostolic experience. His rich legacy of recorded and published sermons continues to be used by God to transform lives today.
