In this final volume of Authentic Christianity, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones demonstrates the relevance for modern readers of the events documented in Acts 8:1-35. Here we see how the persecution that arose after Stephen's martyrdom led to a prodigious spread of the gospel throughout Samaria and, through the conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch, even to Africa. In this way, the words the Lord had spoken to his disciples, that they would be his witnesses “in Samaria and to the ends of the earth,” began to be fulfilled. These sermons, preached between October 1967 and February 1968, are filled with accurate analyses of issues such as the human need for the gospel, the work of the Spirit, the supernatural character of true Christianity, repentance and faith, the danger of spurious belief, and the very core and heart of the gospel in the sufferings and death of Christ, as Philip expounded them to the Ethiopian.
