09-Martyn & Bethan, Infant Baptism and Church Membership: A Warning

When D.Martyn Lloyd-Jones became a minister in Aberavon,
South Wales, in the 1920s, the Presbyterian Church Secretary
was E.T.Rees. Although Mr Rees was a member of the church,
and a church officer, he was unconverted. He knew absolutely
nothing of regeneration, nothing at all – neither in theory nor in
practice. It is said that he ‘believed in a type of evangelical
religion, but he was later to feel that he had been as ignorant of
the doctrine of regeneration as Nicodemus’.
