A Closer Look at Some of God's Faithful Men!

11/27/2017

I find it a great encouragement to look into the lives and preaching and teaching of faithful men! My favorite is Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones and I am slowly working through a biography on his life and ministry, plus listening to a sermon of his at least once a week. Every morning, as Kim and I prepare for our day, we listen for about 25 minutes to R.C. Sproul from Ligonier Ministries. It has been a blessing recently to do this together.

Lately too I have been slowly reading the e-book of "Feed My Sheep: A Passionate Plea for Preaching", where we find some magnificent authors/preachers. In particular I have been fascinated by the writing and preaching of James Montgomery Boice. Boice was used of the Lord to make a formidable contribution to the church and its position on the inerrancy of Scripture. This was through the International Council on Biblical Inerrancy in 1977.

Rather than take too much space here to share my insights, I decided to seek out a blog post to link to. I found it through Tim Challies' well known ministry blog. My prayer is that others will be encouraged by the life of James Montgomery Boice as his legacy of solid biblical preaching and teaching lives on even though Boice is with the Lord since the year 2000. Dr. John MacArthur once essentially said of Boice's passing that the church has lost a blessing. Yet, via his preaching and writing we continue to be inspired by one of the defenders of the faith and God's Word, James Montgomery Boice. Click on the quote below to read more and be encouraged! May the Lord richly bless you!

This is the ministry blog of Robert Thomas Clark, It is designed to be a repository of inspiring, impactful & influential posts on biblical truth, themes and concepts.

I desire nothing more than to exalt Christ and equip others for ministry in exegetical method and expository preaching, even as I serve alongside many of them!.

Life Verse: “And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks through Him to God the Father.”

Inspirational Quote:
“There is no aspect of life but that the gospel has something to say about it. The whole of life must come under its influence because it is all-inclusive; the gospel is meant to govern and control everything in our lives… We must realize the greatness of the gospel, its vast eternal span. We must dwell more on the riches, and in the riches, of these great doctrinal absolutes.”
-- Dr. D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
