No doubt the original listeners, who heard one sermon at a time, were enthralled by his arguments and had their attention held by his delivery.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Lloyd-Jones uses Paul\u2019s teaching to show how marriage should be. How the wife must behave to her husband and how the husband must behave towards the wife. There is no choice in these matters. Lloyd-Jones is absolutely positive about this and goes on to relate the belief of the church being \u2018the bride of Christ\u2019 to the marriage state and what that means to true believers, stressing the obligations and rewards that this implies.<\/p>\n<p>This thought provoking preaching is worthy of deep consideration.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This review was first posted on GoodBookReviews.org.
