"I am convinced that the main trouble with most of us and with the church in general is that we seem to have forgotten the Presence and the power of the Spirit. We have become so formal, with everything so set, so organised, all in the control of man - and have forgotten ... the power and the glory of the Spirit. I am convinced that the greatest need of the church is to realize again the activity of the Holy Spirit".
Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones - "Joy Unspeakable" - Hodders (1984) - (p120).
"The man who never reads will never be read. He who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own ... You need to read" - C H Spurgeon. "To fail to learn from the pulpit of the past is to impoverish that of the present" - Tony Sargent
