43. MartynLloyd-Jones Pastor in Wales & England Pastor in Wales & England (1891-1989) (1891-1989) the greatest need of the hour is a revived and joyful Church...

44. MartynLloyd-Jones Pastor in Wales & England Pastor in Wales & England (1891-1989) (1891-1989) Nothing is more important... than that we should be delivered from a condition which gives other people looking at us, the impression that to be a Christian means to be unhappy, to be sad, to be morbid, and that the Christian is one who ‘scorns delights and lives laborious days’

45. MartynLloyd-Jones Pastor in Wales & England Pastor in Wales & England (1891-1989) (1891-1989) Christian people too often seem to be perpetually in the doldrums and too often give this appearance of unhappiness and lack of freedom and of absence of joy. There is no question at all but that this is the main reason why large numbers of people have ceased to be interested in Christianity.

46. MartynLloyd-Jones Pastor in Wales & England Pastor in Wales & England (1891-1989) (1891-1989) I am certain that the world outside is not going to pay much attention to all the organized efforts of the Christian church. The one thing she will pay attention to is a body of people filled with this spirit of rejoicing.

47. MartynLloyd-Jones Pastor in Wales & England Pastor in Wales & England (1891-1989) (1891-1989) That is how Christianity conquered the ancient world. It was this amazing joy of these people. Even when you threw them into prison, or even to death, it did not matter, they went on rejoicing; rejoicing in tribulations
