Principle George Jeffreys would sometimes take a break from his busy schedule and visit Westminster Chapel in London to hear Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones. There was a great respect between them, when Dr. Jones heard of Pastor Jeffreys visit he invited him to have a time of fellowship together in his vestry. No doubt the fact that they were both fellow Welshmen brought an even greater friendship. Dr. John F. MacArthur, Jr. who is the Pastor-Teacher of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California says Dr. Jones was without question the finest biblical expositor of the 20th century. In fact, when the final chapter of church history is written, I believe the Doctor will stand as one of the greatest preachers of all time. His style of biblical exposition was meticulously thorough and yet full of energy. "Logic on fire," was his famous description of preaching, and he had an amazing gift for blending passion and precision in copious measures. He influenced countless preachers (myself included), and he stood steadfastly against the superficial, entertainment-oriented approach to preaching that seemed to dominate the evangelical world then as it does now. Lloyd-Jones still desperately needs to be heard today.
Unfortunately there are only a few messages by Principle George Jeffreys available today, (if you visit my main website, YouTube or the main Elim websites you can hear these recordings). Although Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones was not a Pentecostal Pastor we can learn much from Dr. Jones in these days when so much error and false doctrine is being taught.
