Today: A demonstration of the Spirit!

"I believe we are in urgent need of some manifestation, some demonstration of the power of the Holy Spirit."

In Joy Unspeakable, Martyn Lloyd-Jones emphasized that the purpose of baptism with the Holy Spirit is to make us witnesses of Jesus Christ in a time and a place that has forgotten the message of the cross. The Spirit is sovereign, and he is sent to make Christ central in all our lives.

In this companion volume, the famed expositor examines the related question of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and their place in God's purposes. With compelling analysis, Dr. Lloyd-Jones dis-cusses the teaching of Scripture and apostolic history concerning the ordinary and extraordinary gifts of the Spirit. Exhorting us to "prove all things," he charts a surprising course between the ex-tremes of undiscerning enthusiasm and a spirit of unbelief.

Martyn Lloyd-Jones has been widely regarded as the most power-ful English preacher since Spurgeon. A former physician, he was the minister of London's Westminster Chapel for 25 years and a leader in the burgeoning evangelical witness throughout the British Isles.
