The True Test...Making Much of Jesus

I shared the following quote in yesterday's teaching from 1 John 4:1-6. Makes me wonder how often we give credit to a worship team, or a preacher instead of giving glory to Jesus?

“But, of course, and this is the greatest test, the true Spirit always glorifies Christ; He is always in the center; He is always given the pre-eminence. And the true prophet is not the man who talks about experiences and visions and what he has done and seen, but about Christ. And when you have heard him you do not say, ‘What a wonderful man’; you say, ‘What a wonderful Savior!’ You do not say, ‘What a wonderful experience this man has had’; you say, ‘Who is the Man of whom he is speaking?’ The attraction is to Christ; he glorifies Christ.”
--Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Life in Christ
