Verse by verse discourse on 1 John chapter 3.

1 John 3 NKJV by Bo Sullivan 1 John 3:1 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!

But Christ!

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 6, 2019

The way into the Holiest.

BUT CHRIST! Hebrews 9:1-14. We have been comparing and contrasting the new covenant with the old, the heavenly tabernacle with the earthly; the substance with its shadow (cf. Hebrews 8:1-13). Also the ministry of Jesus with that of Aaron (cf. Hebrews 5:1-10). In this passage we see ...read more

A Call To Worship

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 23, 2015

Who is this LORD, that we should worship Him? Why should we trust and praise this God?

A CALL TO WORSHIP. Psalm 146. The last five Psalms (146-150) all begin and end with an exhortation to praise the LORD, addressed collectively to the congregation of God’s people. Yet it is not enough for the praise leader just to call others to worship: it is also the exercise of his own soul ...read more

Why Bother? Series

Contributed by Shawn Drake on Jan 20, 2015

This is the 5th sermon in the series, "The Cure". There are times that we wonder if trying to be Christlike is worth it.

Series: The Cure [#5] WHY BOTHER? Romans 3:1-20 Introduction: Most of us are at Church each time we have a service. Sometimes we come to Church and we’re sick. Other times we come to Church and we’re tired; and sometimes we come to Church and we really just don’t want to be ...read more

The Christian And Sin

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014

So what is to be the Christian's relationship to sin? Strictly speaking, he should not have such a relationship!

THE CHRISTIAN AND SIN. 1 John 3:1-10. “Behold,” says John. Pause for thought and reflection. For it is indeed a wonderful demonstration of God's love that “we” should be called the sons of God (1 John 3:1). This was not what we deserved, but as we know from other Scriptures, it was ‘while ...read more

The Two Advents

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 27, 2018

The uncompromising preaching of John. Bearing fruit that proves our repentance. Practical moral guidance. Redirecting Messianic expectations.

THE TWO ADVENTS. Luke 3:7-18. In the fullness of the times (cf. Galatians 4:4), John came ‘preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins’ (Luke 3:1-3). Being 30 years old, you might expect him to be starting his priesthood in the Temple in Jerusalem (cf. Numbers 4:3), but God ...read more

A Place Of No Water

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2016

We may well find, like Moses, that the answer is already to hand.

A PLACE OF NO WATER. Exodus 17:1-7. Moses must have been pretty near the end of his tether (Exodus 17:4). After all, the LORD had already heard the cries of His people in their bondage (Exodus 3:7), and sent Moses to them: but it had been all Moses could do to convince them to accept ...read more

Ask First

Contributed by John Mccormack on Jan 16, 2016

CONSULT THE LORD BEFORE YOU PLAN.

ASK FIRST OBSERVATION: JOSHUA WAS THE LEADER OF ISRAEL’S CONQUEST OF CANAAN. HE CONTINUALLY URGED ISRAEL TO FULLY FOLLOW THE LORD’S DIRECTIVES. GOD HAD CONFIDENCE IN JOSHUA’S LEADERSHIP; HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT MEAN JOSHUA WAS PERFECT IN HIS LEADERSHIP. THIS STUDY ADDRESSES ...read more

Jesus Is Literally Alive Right Now

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 27, 2021

The disciples were terrified. They hid together in their dwelling in Jerusalem, trembling with fear. They didn’t know if roman soldiers or temple guards might burst through the doors at any moment and arrest them all.

The disciples were terrified. They hid together in their dwelling in Jerusalem, trembling with fear.

Jesus In The Midst: The Upper Room.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 10, 2021

Trying to understand Jesus without the Scriptures is futile, and comprehending Scripture without Jesus opening our understanding is impossible

JESUS IN THE MIDST: THE UPPER ROOM. Luke 24:36-48. What a scene met the two from the Emmaus Road upon their return to Jerusalem! The dejected church was now declaring its Easter message: “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon.” To which they added their own testimony of the risen ...read more

A Garden Of Joy.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 27, 2013

It is the acceptable year of the LORD. A young man in Nazareth preaches the good news.

A GARDEN OF JOY. Isaiah 61:1-4, Isaiah 61:8-11. Imagine yourself in ancient Israel celebrating that most solemn of feasts, the day of Atonement. This, however, is not just any old Yom Kippur: it is the fiftieth year, and on this day a musical instrument formed out of a ram’s horn is sounded in ...read more

Who Are You?

Contributed by The Rev Deniray Mueller on Dec 13, 2022

John the Baptist is not sure that Jesus is the anointed 'Messiah'

Matthew 11:2-11 In the past two weeks, our Advent lessons have taught us to prepare to celebrate both the past and the future - to celebrate both the birth of Jesus 2,020 years ago and to heighten our anticipation of his coming anew at a date and time no one knows for sure. The lessons have ...read more

A Leper And A Centurion.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 17, 2023

Two examples of faith in Jesus.

A LEPER AND A CENTURION. Matthew 8:1-13. At the beginning of the Sermon of the Mount Jesus had been ‘set’ and ‘His disciples came unto Him’ (cf. Matthew 5:1). At the end of the Sermon we were told of the other people who had been listening in, how they had been amazed at His teaching: ‘For ...read more
