he Cross: God s Way of Salvation "Superficial views of the work of Christ produce superficial human lives." Martyn Lloyd-Jones Ever since his first sermon in 1925, Martyn Lloyd-Jones consistently emphasized the significance of Christ s sacrifice for our sake. This collection of sermons reveals this theme in Lloyd-Jones classic expository style, showing his gift for combining a warm, personal devotion to Jesus Christ with deep theological insight. His grasp of Scripture still causes the maturest believer to ponder, yet he brings a simplicity of thought to his preaching that a new believer can understand and enjoy. The Cross explains how Christ s crucifixion works for our redemption, and why this event is the cornerstone of the Christian life. From one of this century s greatest preachers, exellent reading for ministers and anyone seeking a closer walk with Christ. Meditative, easily understandable, and biblically sound. Spiritual Blessing: The Path to True Happiness He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire (Luke 3:16) How can I know the presence and power of God in my life? When Jesus went to a wedding and turned water into wine, he showed just how willing he is to bless those who look to him for guidance and direction. But Jesus baptises with the Spirit and with fire. So we find him going on to the Temple to challenge those who were using God s gifts and provisions for their own ends. This book shows how these two sides fo the Lord s character - generous blessing and loving judgement - work together in our lives even today, giving us the means to follow him for the rest of our lives and into eternity.
