Item description for The Gospel in Genesis: From Fig Leaves to Faith by David Martyn Lloyd-Jones...
Overview
Martyn Lloyd-Jones preaches the gospel of Jesus Christ from the pages of Genesis. These nine sermons are classic Lloyd-Jones, featuring the eternal perspective, sense of urgency, and unapologetic honesty that characterized his preaching.
Publishers Description
If you’ve ever asked, “Why am I the way that I am? Why is life so hard? Is there any hope?” you’ll find answers in Martyn Lloyd-Jones’s study of Genesis. In this series of never-before-published sermons, beloved teacher Martyn Lloyd-Jones walks readers through the early chapters of Genesis. The Gospel in Genesis starts with the fall of man and ends with the call of Abram as it examines portions of chapters 3–12. Along the way Lloyd-Jones talks of serpents and sin, of the Word of God and the Babel of man. But the destination of The Gospel in Genesis is clear: readers will be moved from fig leaves in the garden to faith in the gospel. Thus Lloyd-Jones preaches the gospel of Jesus Christ from the pages of Genesis. These nine sermons will snap nonbelievers out of their apathy toward God and will embolden believers to share the only gospel that offers answers to life’s biggest questions. |

Reviews - What do customers think about Gospel In Genesis?
 | A Clear and Powerful Gospel Message Dec 11, 2009 |
Martyn Lloyd-Jones says that our condition cannot be understood apart from the third chapter of Genesis. All was perfect in the garden until Adam and Eve rebelled. They didn't trust God. They wanted something more. Instead, they found misery, and they were cast out of Eden . Since then man has been trying to regain entrance into paradise. But there is only one way, and God has provided it.
In the Gospel in Genesis: From Fig Leaves to Faith, Dr. Lloyd-Jones stresses two main points. First, we know nothing about God or our own condition without God's word. "The Bible, far from being remote from life, is the only book that really does deal with life as it is." And second, believing and obeying God leads to peace and happiness, but sin leads to misery.
Chapters one through six are taken from the account of Adam and Eve's fall in the third chapter of Genesis. The last three chapters deal with Noah and the flood, the tower of Babel , and Abraham. Lloyd-Jones sees these as literal, historical accounts, and in each of them he sees a picture of man's lost condition and need for Christ.
These nine sermons are full of substance, yet simple to understand. Dr. Lloyd-Jones was a clear and logical communicator. This book is more evangelistic than many of the Doctor's works; every sermon has a clear gospel message. It would make the perfect gift for an unbelieving friend.
If you are looking for an in-depth, verse-by-verse commentary on Genesis, this is not it. But if you want a book that makes you think, convicts you, and points you to Christ, you won't be disappointed.

| I've been a fan of Lloyd-Jones for about five years now. His collection of sermons on Romans and Ephesians are great! If you're new to Lloyd-Jones and his style I would suggest that you give this brief book a try. His first chapter/sermon captures beautifully the whole purpose and message of Scripture. I highly recommend this work for men, women, pastors, teachers, deacons, elders and laypeople. Dr. Jones is faithful to the text while at the same time surprisingly relevant in his applications. | | | Write your own review about Gospel In Genesis
