Less than $NZ 110.00 I paid for the books I bought second-hand about thirty years ago in Whangarei, namely seven volumes on Romans by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones.

Seven Volumes on ROMANS

But only recently I began to read the first volume seriously and I have almost come to the end of the book of 394 pages. It is an exposition of ROMANS chapter 1, the Gospel of God.

I find those expositions on Paul’s letter to the ROMANS most exciting. At the end of the volume I am reading at the present time D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones is pointing out the biblical motive for preaching the Gospel, for evangelising.

What would you answer if I would ask you, “What is the biblical motive for preaching the Gospel?” I can almost hear you answering, “The Love of God!”

The biblical answer for preaching the Gospel is the wrath of God.” (Romans 1:18)

Wondering if the books are still available and curious how much the cost of the books is at the present time, I did not only discover yesterday on the internet that the volumes are still for sale, but also that the total cost of the seven books is now $NZ 227.05.

That means that I saved more than $NZ 117.05. At least one person is thankful for second-hand shops.
