Living Water: Studies in John 4

Description

This substantial volume includes more than fifty never-before-published expository sermons on John 4 from one of the twentieth century's greatest preachers. It was just a conversation between two people by the side of a well in Samaria. One, a local woman, came to perform her daily task of drawing water. Another, a Jewish man tired from traveling, sat down for a drink. But he wasn't just any Jewish man, and this wasn't just any conversation. The man, Jesus, revealed himself as the Messiah, leading to the conversion of not only the Samaritan woman but many from her town. Now, for the first time, fifty-six sermons by Martyn Lloyd-Jones on this passage of Scripture are available in Living Water. Lloyd-Jones, known for his ability to clearly communicate profound theological concepts, digs into this familiar passage from the fourth chapter of the Gospel of John, exposing fresh layers of truth. His perceptive analysis is helpful for all who thirst for the living water that only Jesus can provide. 1 The Possibilities of the Christian Life 2 Our Lord’s Approach and Our Prejudice 3 Spiritual Dullness and Evasive Tactics 4 Wrong Ideas of Worship and of God 5 True Worshippers 6 In Spirit and in Truth 7 Praying in the Spirit 8 Characteristics of Praying in the Spirit 9 Who Is He? 10 Our Need for Salvation 11 The Greatest Mystery of All 12 “I Am He” 13 The Gift of God 14 Christianity or Religion? 15 Power 16 Mind, Heart, and Will 17 “The Life of God in the Soul of Man” 18 “Never Thirst” 19 Full Satisfaction of the Intellect 20 The Authority of the Bible 21 The Sufficiency of the Bible 22 A Purpose for Life and Death 23 Conscience Answered 24 Death Defeated 25 Guidance 26 The Secret Things of God 27 The Need for Emotional Satisfaction 28 Moved by the Truth 29 Joyful Assurance 30 The Coming of the Holy Spirit 31 The Fruit of the Spirit 32 The Purpose of the Scriptures 33 The Ultimate Test 34 “Looking unto Jesus” 35 “Loved with Everlasting Love” 36 The Longing of the Heart, Mind, and Will 37 In Trials and Tribulations 38 All in Christ Jesus 39 The Work of Christ 40 Conviction of Sin 41 The Essential First Step 42 What Is Meant by Conviction of Sin? 43 Salvation and Sanctification 44 A Message for Remembrance Sunday 45 Captivated by Him 46 A Living Communion 47 Joy beyond Words 48 Experiences of the Lord’s Presence 49 Finding the Lord’s Presence 50 “Is Not This the Christ?” 51 Facing a New Year 52 The Witness 53 Rejoicing in Christ 54 The Need and the Cure 55 The Preeminence of Christ—Telling Others 56 More Than Conquerors Notes
