…because Christ did for us what we wouldn’t do for ourselves!
The test of a saint is not one’s willingness to preach the gospel but willingness to do something like washing the disciples feet.

“We Will Give Ourselves to Prayer” (Acts 6.4)
Prayer makes the man; prayer makes the preacher; prayer makes the pastor.
Pastor, Pray for that Jerk at Your Church
Intercession is the best arbitrator of all differences, the best promoter of true friendship, the best cure and preservative against all kind of tempers, all angry and haughty passions.
Preacher, Are You Preaching Law or Gospel?
The Law sends us to the gospel that we may be justified; the gospel sends us to the Law again to inquire what is our duty as those who are justified.
What Is Preaching?
What is preaching? Logic on fire! Preaching is theology coming through a man who is on fire. A true understanding and experience of the Truth must lead to this. I say again that a man who can speak about these things dispassionately has no right whatsoever to be in a pulpit; and should never be allowed to enter one.
D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The Crucified Pastor
The man who preaches the cross must himself be a crucified man.

Pastor, Don’t Preach Regurgitated Sermons
Your people need discourses which have been prayed over and laboriously prepared. People do not want raw food.
Pastor, Read and Then Read More
D. Martin Lloyd-Jones to pastors on reading theology after seminary: “Keep on reading; and read the big works.”

Preaching Is a Commentary on the Preacher’s Life
A preacher’s life should be a commentary of his doctrine; his practice should be a counterpart of his sermons.

True Preaching Promotes Christ’s Kingdom
Preaching is an ordinance of God, a means appointed by Jesus Christ himself for promoting his kingdom amongst men.
