"I can therefore summarize the teaching like this. The secret power is to discover and to learn from the New Testament what is possible for us in Christ. What I have to do is to go to Christ. I must spend my time with Him. I must meditate upon Him, I must get to know Him. That was Paul's ambition-"That I might know Him." I must maintain my contact and communion with Christ and I must concentrate on knowing Him….What else? I must do exactly what He tells me. I must avoid things that would hamper. If in the midst of persecution we want to feel as Paul felt, we must live as Paul lived. I must do what He tells me, both to do and not to do. I must read the Bible, I must exercise, I must practice the Christian life, I must live the Christian life in all its fullness." (Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Spiritual Depression)
