Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Tomorrow 40 years ago, Martyn Lloyd-Jones was dying and could not speak. He wrote on a bit of paper: “Don’t pray for healing. Don’t hold me back from the glory.” Three days later he was there.

"I've spent the last three years trying every means to track down a copy of this particular message," said Robert Stone, an MLJ Trust volunteer in the UK. This message was Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones' final sermon at Sandfields, preached in 1977 in commemoration of 50 years since his call there. He preached from the same verse in 1926 when he began his ministry: 1 Corinthians 2:2 - "For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified."

Everything we do in the Christian life is easier than prayer. – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

The whole world is going to be judged, and going to be destroyed. We are all born in the world and of it. And unless we can be separated from that world, we will share its fate. – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

John MacArthur was an American Evangelical with an enormous influence in Europe. What happens with that impact after his death? That is in this podcast with Paul Mitchell. @johnmacarthur @gracetoyou cne.news/article/4927-c…

It has now been more than six years since a new book by Lloyd-Jones was published (Saved by Grace Alone @banneroftruth). I don’t think there has ever been such a long gap before! Isn’t it time for a new volume to appear? There are plenty of unpublished Sunday evening sermons!

Do you feel the world is broken? Do you feel the shadows deepen? But do you know that all the dark won’t stop the light from getting through? Do you wish that you could see it all made new?
