Today’s Quote – God’s family (Lloyd-Jones)

Martyn Lloyd-Jones, The Unsearchable Riches of Christ:

…as Christians let us always remember that the Name that is on us is the Name of God, ‘from whom the whole family in heaven and on earth is named’.  What matters is no longer the family of David, no longer this tribe or that tribe, no longer this country or that country, this class or that class, this group or that group.  No!  The family name which I claim is the Name of God, and I am to live in this world as one who represents that family, as one who represents that Father.  His name is on me; so may it never be besmirched!  May men never think meanly of Him and His Name because of what they see in me!
