Baptised With Heavenly Power: The Holy Spirit in the Teaching and Experience of D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (Biography)

Description:

D. Martyn Lloyd–Jones and the Holy Spirit: A Theological Assessment

With a Foreword by Sinclair B. Ferguson

This groundbreaking study examines D. Martyn Lloyd–Jones’s theology of the Holy Spirit, particularly focusing on his controversial teaching about the baptism of the Spirit, revival, and the relationship between Word and Spirit in preaching. Drawing extensively on Lloyd–Jones’s sermons, lectures, and previously unpublished materials, Philip Eveson demonstrates that Lloyd–Jones stood firmly within the Reformed tradition while emphasising the experiential aspect of Christianity that characterised early Calvinistic Methodism.

The book provides fresh insights into Lloyd–Jones’s thinking by exploring his medical background, his Welsh Methodist roots, and his profound engagement with Puritan writers. It carefully analyses his understanding of Spirit baptism, assurance, and revival, showing how his position differed from both Pentecostalism and cessationism.

Particularly valuable is the detailed examination of Lloyd–Jones’s philosophy of preaching and his insistence on both doctrinal accuracy and spiritual power. The author convincingly argues that Lloyd–Jones’s emphasis on the Holy Spirit’s work offers vital insights for contemporary Reformed Christianity.

Two valuable appendices provide previously unpublished material: Lloyd–Jones’s important address on the Welsh Revival of 1904–05, and his personal spiritual journal from 1930–31. An extensive bibliography guides readers to primary and secondary sources for further study.

Essential reading for ministers, theological students, and anyone interested in Lloyd–Jones’s legacy or the role of the Holy Spirit in Christian life and ministry.

Editorial Reviews

Review

This is an enormously valuable book … I determined to purchase three copies for the three of my grandsons who are preachers. How helpful they will find it!

-- Geoff Thomas

The book will eliminate many misunderstandings concerning Lloyd–Jones’s doctrine of the Holy Spirit, while at the same time it will convict readers concerning the need for the unction from on high for preaching God’s Word. There is no doubt that much encouragement will result from studying this book.

-- HoSub Shin

A magnificent, readable and completely edifying book on the life and theology of my grandfather which I enjoyed enormously and which I very much hope is read as widely as possible. I commend it with thankfulness and enthusiasm.

-- Christopher Catherwood

I have long considered the twentieth–century ministry of Martyn Lloyd–Jones to be one of the great gifts of our Lord to his Church. This fresh and sympathetic study of his teaching on the work of the Holy Spirit in the Christian life, revival, and preaching by a fellow Welshman provided this reader with a renewed appreciation of the Doctor’s life and ministry.

-- Michael A. G. Haykin

5.0 out of 5 stars Spirit-Dependent Preaching

In Baptised With Heavenly Power, Philip H. Eveson explores of the life, theology, and spiritual convictions of D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones. This biography stands out not only for its attention to Lloyd-Jones’s theological development and associations, but also for its rich analysis of his preaching philosophy—particularly his insistence on both doctrinal precision and Spirit-empowered proclamation.This 400-page book begins by examining Lloyd-Jones’s Calvinism through the lens of his preaching and teaching, then transitions to his unique self-identification as a “Calvinistic Methodist.” Rather than viewing these terms as contradictory, Lloyd-Jones saw them come together in what he called “true Methodism.” He was thoroughly Reformed in both theology and practice, while still shaped by the spiritual fervor of Methodism.Spiritual Formation and RevivalOne of the more surprising and inspiring aspects of the book is the insight into Lloyd-Jones’s formation. Though he lacked formal theological training, he was largely self-taught and was greatly influenced by books, especially the works of Jonathan Edwards and B. B. Warfield. His admiration for the Puritans influenced his deep commitment to theological teaching. He saw his times judge and value people more by academic achievement than by Christian character. He believed that education does not lead to edification, as he remained unwaveringly doctrinal and rooted in biblical truth.The book devotes a significant section to Lloyd-Jones’s views on the baptism of the Holy Spirit. For Lloyd-Jones, this baptism was closely associated with a Christian’s full assurance of salvation. Pentecost was a baptism of power and fire upon an already established Church.I was particularly compelled by Lloyd-Jones’s distinction between evangelistic meetings and revival. He believed revival was a miracle that could not be orchestrated or scheduled. In revival, people came in large numbers without being prompted, and many of them remained faithful. God often begins revival in the most unexpected places using the most unlikely people. The ultimate purpose of revival was to glorify God, demonstrate his power, and humble his people. As Iain Murray noted, revival wasn’t a separate category in Lloyd-Jones’s theology but was to be seen as an aspect of ministry.Spirit-Dependent PreachingI was most moved to see my own convictions about preaching reflected in Lloyd-Jones’s approach. He emphasized preparation, urgency, and seriousness, all carried out in the spirit of worship. Though he lacked formal pastoral education, he learned through through diligent personal study and by the mentorship of seasoned ministers.I was interested to read how his medical training influenced his preaching. His sermons were marked by logical structure, careful reasoning, and frequent use of probing questions. As a Registered Nurse, this made me reflect on how my own professional background shapes my preaching.Lloyd-Jones preached with a deep dependence on the Holy Spirit, believing that it was the Spirit who empowered his words and made them effective. His relationship with the Spirit was both biblical and deeply pastoral. Baptised with Heavenly Power is academically engaging and spiritually enriching, inviting readers to approach theology with seriousness, humility, and prayerful dependence on the Spirit.I received a media copy of Baptised with Heavenly Power and this is my honest review.
