    Christians who are unhappy may feel as though they are not receiving the Lord’s blessing as they once had. Jeremiah was a prophet to the people of Israel who were unhappy in their captivity in Babylon. In this sermon on backsliding from Jeremiah 31:21 titled “Wandering from the Highway,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones introduces his audience to the concept of “backsliding” from the Bible, and how the Christian can find his or her way back to blessing. Dr. Lloyd-Jones maintains that God chastises His people and gives them reliable instruction in order to drive them back to Himself. Dr. Lloyd-Jones discusses repentance, the first great essential, and the various marks of true repentance: realizing one has sinned; realizing the folly of struggling against God; realizing the depth of the sin nature; and casting themselves utterly into the hands of God. Dr. Lloyd-Jones charges his listeners to repent and set their hearts toward the highway. There is only one highway: it is spacious and it leads to God. They are challenged to seek God along the highway and look back so as to learn by self-examination where they went wrong.

    Oh, how I love this friend in Christ, how I have devoured his preaching and teaching since my conversion to Christ in 1966, 57 years ago. Now all saints may hear (& see a small amount of videos) on computers and other tech devices. Being an avid reader all my life I am blessed while I read & studied the great wealth of his expository preaching. Now I (mostly) can hear about 1200 or more of very many sermons that he has gotten down on audio. Read and hear anything you may find by this greatest preacher of the 20th century.

    What a wonderful sermon. A careful analysis of the backsliding Christian and the way back.

    Surely, Dr Martyn Lloyd Jones was the very last true expositor, bastian, bright beacon of gospel truth from this nation. So blessed were they who sat to listen to this mighty servant of Christ expounding the sword of the Spirit.....GOD'S WORD

      @franciscafazzo3460 I will. I too have been recently going astray in my thoughts, focusing on worldy things. It's a fight that will rage within ourselves until we are finally redeemed from this evil world. I'll tell you the same thing I tell myself, no matter how far you stray ALWAYS COME BACK! this is not your home!

    Amen. Instruction follows chastisement. Hebrews 12:6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

    Glory to God for fulfilling His prophetic words....
    "And I will give you pastors according to Mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.... At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD, and all the nations shall be gathered unto it to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem : neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart."
    Jeremiah 3:15-17:

    This is a Timely Message and one that I need to received it with thanksgiving, but I struggle with self-centered fear. I feel like he is preaching to me. I am thankful for his bluntness. thank you for posting this.
