Martin Lloyd-Jones had been a medical student achieving great academic success at Bartholomew’s College, so much so that he was appointed chief medical assistant to the King’s Physician afterwards. He had gained a whole string of degrees and achievements by the age of 25. As a result of this, he was fondly dubbed ‘The Doctor’ to the end of his life. People speculated that he had a brilliant medical future. Although a member of the Presbyterian church, he did not know Christ as Saviour. In his early twenties, he became conscious that he was a sinner and in deep repentance sought and found the Lord, sensing a call into full time ministry at the same time. In his first church, he only had 93 to start with but it was not long afterwards that up to 850 attended, of them 530 full church members. He also assisted Campbell Morgan in Westminster Chapel from 1938-1943, fully taking over in that last year. He had a most fruitful ministry there ending his service there in 1968 after having to undergo surgery. Afterwards, he continued preaching all over the U.K. until 1980, while books were being written of his sermons at the same time including his expositions on Romans and Ephesians. He died in London on the 1st March, 1981.
