Acts: Chapters 1-8 Kindle Edition

by Martyn Lloyd-Jones (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

See all formats and editions

The book of Acts records some of the most important events in the New Testament: the birth of the church, the coming of the Holy Spirit, bold preaching and dramatic missionary journeys. In addition to providing incredible insights into the growth of the apostolic church, Acts also encourages and challenges Christians today, spurring readers on to wholehearted devotion to Christ. In this newly revised, three-volume collection of sermons, famed preacher Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones explains the message of the first eight chapters of Acts with clear language and pastoral warmth. From Peter’s bold preaching to the dramatic stoning of Stephen, Lloyd-Jones points readers back to the foundational figures and key events of the Christian faith, emphasizing the basic truths undergirding genuine belief.

5.0 out of 5 stars Three Volumes by London's Greatest Preacher.
Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2019
In October 1967, Martyn Lloyd-Jones sought to preach the book of Acts to show what an 'authentic Christianity' looked like. As people looked elsewhere for hope, just like the first century looked to Jerusalem and Rome, Martyn Lloyd-Jones aims to preach Christ and the resurrection as the answer and hope. He started through the book of Acts, preaching until Feb 1968 when he was cut short by illness and later retirement as minister of Westminster Chapel.
•
What we are left with are 3 volumes of his sermons on Acts 1-8. Not every verse is touched on in this volume, but what Lloyd-Jones preaches is filled with pure gold. He begins with a portrait of the gospel before moving into the explosive growth of the church, the power of the indwelling Spirit, the passion of the disciples, their confidence in ministry, their powerful speeches, an introduction into Paul and his conversion.
•
Martyn Lloyd-Jones preached with such prophetic insight, clarity of thought, exegetical precision, and pastoral care. He truly is one of the great preachers and teachers of the 20th century, and we are blessed to continue to be able to learn and read from his life's work. This set by @crosswaybooks is bound in a quality paperback format. And they'll look dynamite on the shelf. **books graciously provided by @crosswaybooks for an honest review

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Addition to My Library!
Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2016
I did not order this product on Amazon, but received it free through my husband's work rewards program (I couldn't believe they had ML-J books at all). Considering the only other review before writing mine was 1 star due to size, I actually hesitated to get it for a while but decided to give it a try because I really wanted to study the book of Acts. I was expecting a very small paperback book but instead was pleasantly surprised. The book is around 6''x9'' so it is plenty big enough for most readers.

As you can see, I have attached pictures. Two have a Papermate mechanical pencil for reference while one has the Banner of Truth title The Valley of Vision. As you can see, these books are plenty big enough, at least if you do not need large print.

As far as content, you can certainly tell each chapter was a message originally intended for preaching, like all of Dr. Lloyd-Jones' books, but I do not think that takes anything away from the actual content. If you have listened to ML-J's Acts sermon series, you won't find anything new, but it's wonderful that places like Crossway are willing to publish these in text format so that people like me (almost 100% a visual learner) can learn from The Doctor's incredible expositions.

Not a review but a complaint. The package I received had only the first volume of what should have been a shrink wrapped set of three volumes. Your site notes that the volumes are not sold individually. How do I get the rest of my purchase?
