Seminary Is Not The Way To Know God More Fully – Martyn Lloyd Jones

Men boast of their [theology] degrees and diplomas and their passing examinations and so on. That is all very well, but it is not the way to know God more fully. It is through the Spirit, through the baptism of the Spirit that one comes to this fuller knowledge. … When Christianity becomes a subject in a seminary or in a university, well then I say we have really departed from the faith – Martyn Lloyd Jones

If your doctrine of the Holt Spirit does not include this idea of the Holy Spirit falling upon people, it is seriously, grievously defective. .. The whole notion of the Holy Spirit falling upon people has been discountenanced and discouraged, and if you read many books on the Holy Spirit you will find it’s not even mentioned at all, a fact which is surely one of the prime explanations of the present state of the Christian church -Martyn Lloyd Jones
