Anyone who ever felt the power of God in a Lloyd-Jones sermon-in the flesh, on tape or in print-will find this book fascinating and enriching. -J. I. PackerMore than just a biography of a man or an analysis of his preaching, The Sacred Anointing penetrates deeply into the very essence of Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Joness life and ministry. Examining the power of the Holy Spirits anointing in his mentors life and work, Tony Sargent masterfully illuminates the place this driving unction held in Lloyd-Joness preaching.Called a landmark study by J. I. Packer, The Sacred Anointing is a revelation of the power of God and the effect this had on preacher and listener alike. As Lloyd-Jones once said: To me there is nothing more terrible for a preacher, than to be in the pulpit alone, without the conscious smile of God.Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones knew only too well that it was not just attentive preparation and correct application of Scripture than inspired or moved listeners, it was the work of the Holy Spirit-the conscious smile of God.
