Spiritual depression or unhappiness in the Christian life is very often due to our failure to realize the greatness of the gospel.
Martyn Lloyd-JonesThe church is always to be under the Word; she must be; we must keep her there. You must not assume that because the church started correctly, she will continue so. She did not do so in the New Testament times; she has not done so since. Without being constantly reformed by the Word the church becomes something very different.
Martyn Lloyd-JonesPeople who think that once they are converted all will be happy, have forgotten Satan.
Martyn Lloyd-JonesThe terrible, tragic fallacy of the last hundred years has been to think that all man's troubles are due to his environment, and that to change the man you have nothing to do but change his environment. That is a tragic fallacy. It overlooks the fact that it was in Paradise that man fell.
