At the bar of God’s judgement we shall not be seen in crowds but every man will be judged alone.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Old Testament Evangelistic Sermons, Pg. 16

[James Dorman IV @alfredsparks]

The real reason most men want to see an end of war is so that they can have peace to go on sinning.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

We do not invite people to become Christians to save the world from war or communism or bombs or anything else, but to save themselves from the wrath of God and perdition.

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

People today seem to think that you define an evangelist as a man who speaks in the open air!

But it is not 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 a man preaches that decides whether he is an evangelist, it is 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 he preaches.

A man can preach a lie in the open air as easily as in a church building.

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

I say to any man who is imagining fondly that his sins are to be forgiven by Christ, though he does not forgive anybody else, Beware, my friend, lest you wake up in eternity and find Him saying to you, ‘Depart from me; I never knew you.’

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Pg. 17

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

Evangelism does not consist in telling stories and playing on peoples emotions, and then pressing them to a decision at the end without any true knowledge on their part of what they are doing.

—Exposition of Romans, 5.214

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

Once a man has the love of Christ in his heart, you need not train him to witness; he will do it.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones, The Unsearchable Riches of Christ, Pg. 253

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

“There is a false idea of a Christian held by many as of a man who is always walking on the mountain top, and there are some who think that if one is not always there, one is not a Christian at all.

That is a thoroughly unscriptural view to take of the Christian man.”

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

Seek for happiness and you will never find it. Seek righteousness and you will discover you are happy. It will be there without your knowing it, without your seeking it.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

Great attention is being paid to young people today, and a considerable amount of attention is being paid to old people; but I am perfectly convinced the most difficult period of all in life is the middle period.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression, 192

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

False teaching may represent itself as being Christian but in actual fact be a denial of the Christian message.

There have been, and still are, teachings which call themselves Christian which even deny the deity of Lord Jesus Christ, and other cardinal and basic tenets.

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

Man is at his greatest and highest when upon his knees he comes face to face with God.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

Faith is a refusal to panic, come what may.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression, Pg. 143

[James Dorman IV @alfredsparks]

If you do not believe in the unique deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, you are not a Christian, whatever else you may be.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression, Pg. 136

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

The Christian life starts with grace, it must continue with grace, it ends with grace.

Grace, wondrous grace.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression, 132

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

'I need not worry about my salvation now; I will do so at the 11th hour'.

There is no more fatal mistake than this.

As Ryle says of the dying thief: 'Few are ever saved on their deathbeds. One thief was saved that none should despair; but only one, that none should presume'.

[Martyn Lloyd-Jones Gold @DMLJGOLD]

God never causes sin, nor approves of it; he only permits, directs, restrains, limits, and overrules it. People alone are responsible for their sin.

—Great Doctrines of the Bible, 1:251
