What can give the Christian assurance that they are a child of God? In this sermon from John 1:12-13, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones describes how knowledge of the devil and his attacks can give surety of salvation. The Christian is faced with deception, temptation, and accusation from the devil. These hardships point out the fact that the Christian is not conformed to this world or the prince of this world, the devil. Moreover, Dr. Lloyd-Jones points out that “the Christian is an inevitable rebuke to everybody else.” The world does not hate the “good” and moral person, but the world hates the good moral Christian. Dr. Lloyd-Jones elaborates on the particulars of living in the world as a Christian and how to understand the attacks of the devil as evidences of the identity of the Christian as a child of God rather than a child of the devil. This sermon challenges how the Christian fights for assurance and gives hope to the individual struggling with sin, temptation, and accusation.
I've been struggling and have been in despair lately over just these kinds of attacks from the enemy. This sermon has helped me immensely. Praise God that the elders of Westminster Chapel decided to record these sermons back in the 1950's and 1960's when it was not commonplace to do so. We are being blessed and encouraged well into the 21st century as a result. I am so thankful.
Thank thee , O Lord .for the Comforting Word of God, through His Servant.
Dr Lloyd is one of the greatest expository preachers of all times, i listen to his sermons religiously.
Amen!!!
Praise God. Thank you for this brother Lord.
He brought such interesting truths about our struggle with the evil one by 'deductive reasoning' using the scriptures. That we may be reassured our souls were purchased by the blood of your Son through Your GRACE. By faith that is also a gift from you.
That gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
Rom 11:29
I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
Ecc 3:14
Praise God for His Grace. HE is faithful who promised.
wish we had teachers of this yielded to the Holy Ghost. love this. THANK YOU JESUS
