A Sermon on Psalm 107.33-43
https://www.mljtrust.org/sermons/old-...
"It isn't enough just to put pictures before people. They need explanation. The truth has to be driven home. Pictures can affect us superficially and for a while, yes, but salvation ultimately comes through the word and through preaching and understanding." - Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Sermon Description
What does it mean that salvation is all of grace? Despite the centrality of grace to the Bible, many Christians do not have a good understanding of what it means that God is gracious. In this sermon on Psalm 107:33–43 titled “A Gift of Grace,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones preaches that God gives grace freely so that sinners can be saved. Salvation is a gift of grace; a free gift of God apart from any human merit or works. The work of salvation is a unique act of God wherein God sends His Son into the world to die for sinners. Salvation is accomplished in Christ and given as a free gift to all who repent and believe in Jesus. This sermon shows first and foremost that it is the message that one’s merit and works can never make one right with God. All human striving for salvation is wholly done away with on the cross of Calvary when Jesus died for sinners. This sermon calls all to forsake sin and to believe in God.
