  • Westminster Chapel - What Happened?
    Visit our website www.reformation-today.org Editorial comment Foll owin g the expositi on by Spencer C unnah on the role of the pastor whi ch appeared in the last issue (RT 192), Robert Stri vens shows that theology is the driv ing force in the pastor's li fe and how important it is that every pastor be a theologian. But it is not all stud y. The pastor needs to relate to his people and be w ith them by way of hospita lity or by visitation. That subject is addressed in the artic le on visitation . The degree to which writing on visitation has been neglected is illustrated by th e fact that there is onl y one entry fo r it the new 2003 The FINDER (Banner ofTruth 1955-2002, RT 1970- 2002, Westminster Conference 1955-2002). The above emphasis on the pastor as theologian should not detract from the fact that every Christian is a theologian, not in the sense of being a specialist but certainly in the sense of knowing God and be ing proficient in C hri stian truth . Contributors to this issue Robert Strivens practised as a soli citor in London and Brussels for 12 years before training fo r the pastoral ministry at London Theological Seminary ( 1997-99). In 1999, he was call ed to the pastorate of Banbury Evangeli cal Free C hurch, founded 18 years ago. He li ves in Banbury with hi s w ife Sarah and three children, David, Thomas and Danie l.

  • Sundials, Solar Rays, and St Paul's Cathedral
    Extract from: Babylonian London, Nimrod, and the Secret War Against God by Jeremy James, 2014. Sundials, Solar Rays, and St Paul's Cathedral Since London is a Solar City – with St Paul's Cathedral representing the "sun" – we should expect to find evidence of solar rays , the symbolic use of Asherim to depict the radiant, life-sustaining power of the sun. Such a feature would seem to be required by the Babylonian worldview, where Asherim are conceived as conduits of hidden power, visible portals through which the gods radiate their "beneficent" energies into the universe. The spires and towers of 46 churches are aligned with the center of the dome of St Paul's Cathedral, creating 23 "solar rays". I was already familiar with this idea from my research into the monuments of Dublin, where church steeples and other Asherim are aligned in radial fashion around the "sun," the huge modern obelisk known as the Millennium Spire. As it happens, a total of 23 "solar rays" pass through the center of the dome of St Paul's Cathedral, based on the alignment of churches alone . Thus, in the diagram above, two churches sit on each line. If other types of Asherim are included – such as obelisks, monoliths, columns and cemetery chapels – the number is substantially greater. [The 46 churches in question are listed in the table below .] 1 www.zephaniah.eu The churches comprising the 23 "rays" emanating from St Paul's Cathedral 1 St Stephen's, Westbourne Park St Paul's Cathedral St Michael's Cornhill 2 All Souls Langham Place St Paul's Cathedral St Paul's Shadwell

Sermons on Mark through John 6. Sermons on Acts through Colossians 7. Sermons on 1 Thessalonians through Revelation - - Series on "Problems" The Old Testament Sermons Of G. Campbell Morgan 1915 Who Was G. Campbell Morgan? G. Campbell Morgan was a preacher of the Gospel and teacher of the Bible. Preaching Magazine ranked him # 6 on their list of the Ten Greatest Preachers of the Twentieth Century. Dr. Timothy Warren wrote of him, “G. Campbell Morgan helped influence the shape of evangelical preaching on both sides of the Atlantic.” Though born in England and best known for his two tenures as pastor of Westminster Chapel in London, Campbell Morgan crossed the Atlantic Ocean 54 times in his ministry. He was often called the “Prince of Expositors” for his Bible based preaching. He was without question the most famous evangelical preacher in England, and probably the world, during the first 40 years of the 20th Century. Morgan was an educator when God called him to preach. He applied to become a Methodist preacher in 1888, but was turned down. After preaching his trial sermon to the Methodist Board of Ministry, his examiners rejected his application, saying that his preaching showed no promise. The rejection stung deeply, and Campbell Morgan nearly gave up his calling. That very night he telegraphed his father one word, “Rejected”. But his father replied, “Rejected on earth; Accepted in heaven”.

    A CRITICAL EVALUATION OF THE EVANGELISTIC PREACHING OF MARTYN LLOYD-JONES WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO HIS ‘ACTS’ SERIES OF SERMONS AND ITS RELEVANCE FOR UK PASTORS TODAY GARY STEWART BENFOLD BSc (Hons), MA DIRECTOR OF STUDIES: Dr Jenny Read-Heimerdinger SECOND SUPERVISOR: Dr Robert Pope In collaboration with Wales Evangelical School of Theology STATEMENT: This research was undertaken under the auspices of the University of Wales: Trinity Saint David and was submitted in partial fulfilment for the award of a Degree of DMin by Research in the School of Theology, Religious and Islamic Studies of the University of Wales. April 2017 Abstract A Critical Evaluation of the Evangelistic Preaching of Martyn Lloyd-Jones with Special Reference to his ‘Acts’ Series of Sermons and its Relevance for UK Pastors Today Abstract The ministry of David Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981), a leading British preacher within the Reformed tradition, has been a subject of research in the decades since his death. In spite of the importance he himself attached to evangelistic preaching, however, no significant study has been conducted of his own evangelistic preaching. This dissertation explores his weekly evangelistic ministry based on the Book of Acts in the 1960s, his closing years at Westminster Chapel, London. The purpose is to consider the ongoing usefulness, if any, of his practice and method for ministers who stand in the same theological tradition today. The work examines, first, the convictions that drove Lloyd-Jones’ practice, using his published addresses as primary source material. Beyond a summary of his career and his influence (Chapter One), consideration is given to the religious and social context at the time of the Acts sermons, and to its significance for the approach Lloyd-Jones successfully adopted (Chapter Two).

  • Lloyd-Jones on Romans
    CHAPTER 23 The Apostle and the Doctor: Lloyd-Jones on Romans Stephen Westerholm In a recent review of a volume on modern interpretations of Romans, I. Howard Marshall commented on one notable omission from the discussion: If we ask who has been the most influential interpreter of Romans in the church in the twentieth century, one strong candidate is David Martyn Lloyd-Jones. You do not hear about him in academic circles. Quite simply, he was the finest preacher and expositor of Romans in the evangelical wing of the church, and John Calvin and Martin Luther will have been the major influences upon him. He did not always get it right, but of the breadth of his influence in the U.K. there can be no doubt.1 Lloyd-Jones was minister at Westminster Chapel in London from 1939 until 1968.2 Over the last twelve-and-a-half years of his ministry (October 7, 1955 to March 1, 1968), he preached a series of 372 sermons on Romans on Friday evenings, October to May, to “five or six hundred” eager listeners.3 The series— and his ministry at the Chapel—ended abruptly after a sermon on Romans 14:17 because of ill health, though Lloyd-Jones was able to devote time in his retirement to editing these sermons for publication. After his death in 1981, the work was continued by his wife and daughter, assisted by others; the four- teenth and final volume in the series (on Rom 14:1–17) was published in 2003.4 1 Marshall, Review of Modern Interpretations of Romans.

PINK Ray Leviok 35 TWO NEW HYMN BOOKS REVIEWED Editor 37 JOHN OWEN AND 2 PETER 3:9 Bob Letharr) 40 GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH—DUBLIN io to Editorial The Legacy of the Nineteenth Century Men entering the ministry today soon discover that there are traditions in the Church which come to us as a legacy of the nineteenth century—a legacy of dubious value. Traditions which can hinder progress, stick hard and are difficult to remove. Reformation is exceed ingly difficult. Long patience and enduring perseverance are necessary. It is no small help to understand how these traditions originated. Robert Oliver's historical survey gives us some idea. Whenever the Church departs from a powerful doctrinal, expository, systematic, teaching ministry she exposes herself to deadly errors and heresies. A lack of definitive doctrine made way during the last century for the overwhelming advance of Liberalism. The poor evangelical forces were ill-equipped to stand before the armed might and blitz-krieg of the higher critical movement. A lack of doctrinal strength in the Established Church meant that a fertile field was ready to receive the seeds of a resurgent Romanism in the Church of England. In his first study Robert Oliver traced out the advance of Liberalism and described the advance of an expanding Romanism.
