Triumphant Christianity

Publisher:

Crossway

, 2006

Overview

In the fifth volume in his series on Acts, Lloyd-Jones demonstrates that without the miraculous, supernatural power of the Holy Spirit, there can be no triumph in the Christian life. He examines the faulty attitude of Christians both in Stephen's day as well as ours from the perspective given in the book of Acts. Lloyd-Jones exposes the problematic spirit within Christians today and provides a strongly biblical response to the ever more prevalent unbelief we see around us.

“What is it that produces or accounts for the difference between the Christian and the non-Christian? In this record we are told exactly what it is: it is simply our relationship to the Holy Spirit.” (Page 239)

“But the third difference, and one of the most momentous of all, between Christians and non-Christians is the way in which they face death.” (Page 245)

“Stephen was at pains to show that humanity is always in trouble because it always rejects the voice and the word of God” (Page 170)

“First, true religion is based entirely and exclusively on God’s revelation and teaching” (Page 217)

“But the Spirit also has another function to serve, and this is equally important for us. It is the work that He does in us and upon us in a direct manner. Our Lord Himself, in promising the Spirit, had said, ‘And when he is come, he will reprove’—convince—‘the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment’ (John 16:8)—and He does that. He began to do so immediately.” (Page 133)
