VI. D. MARTYN LLOYD-JONES (p. 70-81)
i Lloyd-Jones wrote little of an autobiographical
nature. I gleaned most of the information recorded in the
first two paragraphs from the authorized biography: lain
Murray, D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones The First Forty Years
1899-1939. (Edinburgh: Banner of Truth Trust, 1982). Two
more popularly written biographies of Lloyd-Jones are in
circulation: Christopher Catherwood, Martyn Lloyd-Jones:
Chosen by God. Crowborough, East Sussex: Highland Books,
1986, and John Peters, Martyn Lloyd-Jones: Preacher.
Exeter: Paternoster, 1986.

-"Cf. "First and foremost we must show men their
condition by nature in the sight of God. We must bring them
to see . . . that apart from what we do, and apart from what
we may have done, we are all born the 'children of wrath.'
We are born in a state of condemnation; guilty in the sight
of God." Lloyd-Jones, The Presentation of the GosRel.

to us in exactly the same way, and as a whole. There is no
hint, no suspicion of a suggestion that parts of it are

same form." Lloyd-Jones, Authority. p. 35.
