Dr. Lloyd-Jones was a Welsh minister who preached and taught in the Reformed tradition. He is considered by many evangelical leaders today to be an authority on biblical truth and the sufficiency of Scripture. Dr. Lloyd-Jones’ principal ministry was at Westminster Chapel, in central London, from 1939-1968, where he delivered multi-year expositions on books of the bible such as Romans, Ephesians and the Gospel of John.","last_synced_at":"2026-08-01T12:20:37.869895+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/sermons-of-dr-martyn-lloyd-jones-391506"},"episode":{"title":"Jesus Christ, the Judge","slug":"jesus-christ-the-judge","published_at":"2026-06-28T04:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/sermons-of-dr-martyn-lloyd-jones-391506/jesus-christ-the-judge","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/sermons-of-dr-martyn-lloyd-jones-391506","url":"https://www.mljtrust.org/sermon/jesus-christ-the-judge/","audio_url":"https://media.blubrry.com/mljsermons/sermons.mljtrust.org/3363-jesus-christ-the-judge.mp3","summary":"As the lordship of Christ is universal, so also is the judgment of Christ. Evangelical Protestants rightly champion Scripture’s teaching on the assurance believers have as they face the final judgment seat of God. The Christian rejoices in the assurance that there is no condemnation from God the Father for those in Christ Jesus. However, as Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones reminds in this sermon on Romans 14:10–12 titled “Jesus Christ, the Judge,” Christians often neglect the truth that believers will face another judgment. This is not a final judgment but a judgment of rewards. By bringing out the distinction between Christ’s final judgment and rewards judgment, Dr. Lloyd-Jones protects the church against antinomianism, loose living, and quarreling in the church. As the church at Rome had become factious by judging each other over indifferent matters, the apostle Paul appeals to Christ’s judgment. In doing so, he reminds them who is the true and final judge in all matters. Christians should temper these types of judgments as they are brothers and sisters in Christ. The family of God – those born again by the Holy Spirit and adopted as His children – are not ultimately concerned about proving each other wrong on matters of indifference. Certainly family members are not to denounce and be angry toward a sibling but instead they are called to love, express concern, and help.","meta_description":"As the lordship of Christ is universal, so also is the judgment of Christ.
