Our Lord Jesus Christ

Image
a sermon from Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones including the main messianic prophecies You will recall that last Friday evening, in finishing our consideration of the doctrine of the covenant, the Great Covenant of Grace, we ended by emphasizing the fact that the covenant in both its expressions or in both its dispensations always points to the person of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. And therefore, we have come to our consideration of this great biblical doctrine of or concerning the Lord Jesus Christ. Now, while this is obviously and clearly not the starting point of biblical doctrine, it is certainly the core and the centre of biblical doctrine ... We start with the great doctrine of God and how God has revealed himself and men and his need and so on. But obviously, we come to this which, as I say, is the core and the centre of biblical doctrine. Because the truth concerning the Lord Jesus Christ is at one and the same time the central and the most stupendous fact in the ...

Urunk Jézus Krisztus

Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones prédikációja Emlékeztek bizonyára, hogy múlt péntek este, amikor befejeztük a szövetség tanának, a Nagy Kegyelmi Szövetségnek a tárgyalását, azzal zártuk, hogy hangsúlyoztuk: a szövetség mindkét megnyilvánulásában, mindkét korszakában mindig Urunk és Megváltónk, Jézus Krisztus személyére mutat. Így eljutottunk tehát ahhoz, hogy megvizsgáljuk ezt a nagy bibliai tanítást, amely Urunk Jézus Krisztusról szól. Nos, bár ez nyilvánvalóan és egyértelműen nem a bibliai tanítás kiindulópontja, minden bizonnyal a bibliai tanítás magja és középpontja. hamarosan...

{from the original sermon: Tree, Tables, Temple, and Tenants} by Adam Bream, Everyday Church, London Have you ever watched events unfolding and thought, What is going on here? Maybe it was your favourite team. Maybe it was a film. Either way, you were left thinking, What are you doing? Well, we’ve reached a moment like that in our journey through Mark’s Gospel. If you’re just joining us, Mark is the Gospel written by John Mark, drawing on Peter’s eyewitness testimony to tell of the life of Jesus. It is the earliest written and shortest of the four Gospel accounts. I’m going to take us into the middle of chapter 11. they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it, and he sat on it. And many spread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy branches that they had cut from the fields. And those who went before and those who followed were shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the coming  kingdom of  our fathe...

Saint, Holy

I often meet and talk with people from different religious backgrounds. I found astonishingly large number of situations where various misconceptions about holiness and "being saint" were proclaimed. These misconceptions take many different forms, but they are almost always linked to a type of “humility” that is detached from reality and superficial, as well as to a view that one has no value as a person. People simply cannot be free from the "Roman Catholic" misconception that holiness is a human characteristic or quality of the human moral. Let me clarify that last sentence right away.

Human moral perfection can only be called “holiness” in a secondary and derivative sense. Human holiness is indeed, in a moral sense, a quality of a person, but only as the fruit of God’s grace: “moral perfec...
