Quote from the book

"The glory of the Gospel is that when the Church is absolutely different from the world , she invariably attracts it. It is then that the world is made to listen to her message, thought it may hate it at first. That is how revival comes. That must also be true of us as individuals. It should not be our ambition to as much like everybody else as we can, though we happen to be Christian but rather to be different from everybody who is not a Christian as we can possibly be. Our ambition is to be like Christ, the more like Him the better, and the more like Him we become, the more we will be unlike everybody who is not a Christian." (Studies in the Sermon on the Mount" D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones p.28).
