Lloyd-Jones, M. – Spiritual Depression: Its Causes and Its Cure

Posted on June 23, 2022 by DavidCox

Spiritual Depression: Its Causes and Its Cure, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, 1965. Gently but firmly addresses potential causes including inability to receive forgiveness for all sins, not moving beyond past failures, seeing only bad and not good, not recognizing false teaching, lack of faith, not seeing trials correctly, etc. This older book stays centered on Biblical solutions. Very helpful.

Buy me a Cup of Coffee! To make an old Christian work into a PDF, a module for theWord, MySword, or eSword takes time. These works are scans from old books, and as such, I have to go through the text some dozen times looking for places where the OCR is incorrect, blurred, or just skipped something.

Text Editing.Then there are the old Bible references like John iii. 16. Many young Christians and even preachers do not know the Latin system for books of the Bible. I convert Roman numerals in these books to Arabic (iii. to 3).

I have had to invest days and days in writing macros to read a long text, and make substitutions (for the above, search for "iii" and replace with "3:"). Unfortunately, with Psalms you have to start with 150 in Roman numerals (CL) and work your way backwards. But using macros, it is almost instantaneous the next time I need this. Work smarter, not harder. All this takes time and patience, (and being smart enough to do it in a macro language) (as well as a lot of coffee) and then making the text into theWord or eSword, mySword or a PDF.

Please donate something to me once every 6 months or even once a year, even if it is only $5, so that I can pay my bills for hosting, and also keep things moving along. It costs me about $10 per month to keep a website on the Internet. My websites also contains ads which have links to my sermons, tracts, books, that I have written. These keep my works before visitors, even if they are not visiting the specific website where I have them stored. It is my own "web" internally of my own sites with links to good Christian literature. May God bless for your prayers and donations.

Take a look at a few of our tracts:
salv76 suffering should seek his Savior - explains how we should react to problems and sufferings, we should seek the Savior.
pc15 How to fight against depression - we treat the problem of depression. Depression is not a physical disease, it is an emotional and spiritual disease that "bleeds over" and causes aggravation and physical consequences if not attended to at the spiritual-social-emotional level.
ch15 Congregating because we Love - a tract about why we attend church. Our relationship with our brethren in Christ is highly integrated with our salvation and our sanctification.
SSTeen1-01 Existence of God - Does God really exist? This is not a tract but a teen Sunday School Class that I wrote answering this important question.
fam48 Men are God's Agents - Men are God’s Agents to accomplish His Will, looks at man as God wants him to be. Manhood and the husband-wife relationship.

davidcoxmex.com Missionary Problems: spirit fruit takes time Missionary Problems: "I wish I had known how difficult long-term fruit really is." This article explores the fact that seeing spiritual fruit in a person's life is a long term affair. This short post explores the frustration in missions and the ministry in general of actually seeing abundant, consistent spiritual fruit in the people you are working with. The last point is that prayer is the solution to nonexistent fruit, or the lack of seeing fruit appear in its time.

Tract Group 1

Cult19 Don’t Worship Death is an analysis of why we do not worship death, there is no dealing with death. God is who we deal with.
Topics: Who is the True God? | Jehovah is Omnipresent. | Jehovah is Omnipotent. | The Angel of Death | Death comes to Every Human Being | Mediums are Prohibited.
Excerpt: ...we must insist that “God” in whatever concept you have of Him, God is not a genie in a lamp that will concede to you whatever you wish without consideration of what God’s will is. God is in every place, He is present, and equally he sees and perceives everything, every situation, problem, and need, but God is also all Wise, and He knows what is happening very astutely. Many times, a person is suffering for his own sins, and God is who has commanded this tribulation and suffering because of the stubborn willfulness of the person suffering! (Job 5:18; Deuteronomy 32:39) Their suffering is a punishment from God for their sins. The remedy for them is to kneel before Jehovah and humble themselves before God. But the point is very important that in all of this, it is God Himself that is dealing with each person, and He is dealing with them for their sins... Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell... You see who your God is by how he affects your life.

Have you ever eaten Fried Ice Cream! Donate! It is delicious, like apple pie with vanilla ice cream on top. But you know that you cannot have what is good without somebody paying for it. If you have enjoyed things on my website, please consider helping me out on the expenses and keeping it on the Internet. Can you consider at least a one time donation to this ministry of $10 or $20 dollars? I have a monthly total of about 96 gigabytes total being downloaded monthly from all of my websites. Be a blessing to me and donate any amount. It would be really great if you could gift me and my wife (she wants oa fried ice cream too) this money so that we could enjoy eating out at least once in a while. (I pay the expenses for these sites out of our living expenses.) God will richly bless you and repay you for your generosity. 1 Timothy 5:18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. If you received some value from my websites, consider at least a small donation. A big donation would really be nice, too, though.

Most people buy a cup of coffee many times during a year. I spend my time and money writing good doctrinal content, and I am finding and formatting good old books for the Christian public to use in their studying the Bible. I have Bible college degrees where I have studied Greek and Hebrew. I have had donations over the years, but usually it is very little, like once every 6 months to once a year sometimes. One of my sites (I have 34 sites, about half are in English and the rest in Spanish) costs me about $10/month per site. Because the rent for having these sites on the Internet comes due every month, I have to pay it out of what me and my wife have to pay rent and food. Please consider a donation of any amount. Just a donation of the price of a cup of coffee can greatly help us with these costs and assure that new material is always coming.

Even a small donation will help me greatly! Thank you! May God bless you for your prayers and your financial donations. (If you do not have a PayPal account, there is an option to donate using any bank or credit card even though you don't have a PayPal account.
