Able to Comprehend - A Sermon on Ephesians

www.mljtrust.o...
How can one know the love of God? In this sermon on Ephesians 3:18-19 titled “Able to Comprehend,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones preaches how the apostle Paul speaks of the knowledge of God’s love not simply as intellectual comprehension, nor as a result of abstract thought. But there is a real experience of God’s love and presence in the life of believers that creates this intimate and personal love of God and Christ Jesus. This is true of all biblical truth. For the word of God is a living and active source of teaching, rebuke, and reproof in the life of all God’s children. This is why the love of God that comes from knowing Him is not reserved for the scholars and thinkers of the church. True knowledge and worship of God is never a matter of the intellect alone, but it requires every human faculty. For ultimately this love is only received by grace through the working of God’s Holy Spirit in the lives of fallen men and women. For this reason, no one has any grounds for boasting in themselves. To do so would be to deny that it is entirely of God’s grace. This is both a humbling and an encouraging teaching because it shows how great God’s love is. It tells of what He has done in renewing hearts so that His people can receive this love.

@@blank-964So do I, but at least, thanks be to God, we have this preaching on utube.
It can be said of respected MLJ, "he, being dead, yet speaketh ".

[@PattiFisher-ik3re]

Faith works by love.
Oh that I might know this perfect love of Christ Jesus for myself.
Grant it please, my Savior, and the mighty strength to bear it up. And to show your sweet affection to the Saints of the Most High, His peculiar treasures. Amen, Amen
