People who think that once they are converted all will be happy, have forgotten Satan.
Martyn Lloyd-JonesThe Gospel is open to all; the most respectable sinner has no more claim on it than the worst.
Martyn Lloyd-JonesYou are either a Christian or you are not a Christian; you cannot be partly a Christian. You are either "dead" or "alive"; you are either "born" or "not born".
Martyn Lloyd-JonesThere is no happiness finally, there is no peace, there is no joy except we be right with God. The miserable Christian is wrong in his ideas as to how this rightness with God is to be obtained.
Martyn Lloyd-JonesWe all tend to go to extremes; some rely only on their own preparation and look for nothing more; others, as I say, tend to despise preparation and trust to the unction, the anointing and the inspiration of the Spirit alone. But there must be no "either/or" here; it is always "both/and." These two things must go together.
