  • The Apostolic Foundation Of The Church

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 26, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,240 views

    We may not all be Apostles, but we all have a role to play.

    THE APOSTOLIC FOUNDATION OF THE CHURCH. Acts 1:15-26. When Jesus appeared to “the eleven” and the rest of the Upper Room assembly after His resurrection, He demonstrated the need for His death and resurrection from the Scriptures of the Old Testament, viz. “the Law of Moses and the Prophets and ...read more

  • The Christian And Sin

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,120 views

    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

  • A Garden Of Joy.

    based on 9 ratings
     | 14,187 views

    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

  • The Feast At The House Of Levi

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,624 views

    Jesus came not to call the Righteous but Sinners to repentance.

    THE FEAST AT LEVI’S HOUSE. Mark 2:13-22. 1. The call of Levi (Mark 2:13-14) Wherever we live, under whatever regime, tax collectors are unpopular. It was no different in first century Israel, where Levi’s trade involved collaboration with the Romans, and the constant suspicion of theft. Levi ...read more

  • Compassion: The Healing Touch

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,626 views

    It is never a fruitless exercise when we bring others to Christ.

    COMPASSION: THE HEALING TOUCH. Mark 6:30-34; Mark 6:53-56. It was with some measure of excitement that the twelve apostles returned from their first outreach. They had fulfilled their commission, and were keen to report to Jesus on all that they had said and done (Mark 6:30). If ever there was a ...read more

  • Ruth And The Restorer Of Life

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 13, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,378 views

    Boaz is the restorer of life, granting Naomi restoration and fullness. Thus does Jesus give life and hope to His own.

    RUTH AND THE RESTORER OF LIFE. Ruth 4. It is beautiful to see the way that the LORD restored the broken line of the clan of Ephrathah. Naomi, whose name means Lovely, renames herself Mara, Bitterness. However, her new name never caught on: she is always called Naomi, and in the end must lift ...read more

  • The Gift Of The Love Of God

    based on 7 ratings
     | 14,077 views

    Jesus was lifted up in the crucifixion so that everyone who trusts in Him would have eternal life. This was, and is, the supreme act of God’s love.

    THE GIFT OF GOD’S LOVE. John 3:14-21. The LORD God made heaven and earth, and all that is in them. He gives morning and evening, seedtime and harvest. In Him we live, and move, and have our being. The LORD God says of Himself: ‘I am the LORD, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me’ ...read more

  • Hope In The Midst Of Trials

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 21, 2013
    based on 11 ratings
     | 10,422 views

    Facing up to the LORD from within an experience of darkness.

    HOPE IN THE MIDST OF TRIALS. Job 23:1-9; Job 23:16-17. “When He has tried me, I shall come forth as gold” (Job 23:10). An active faith may question suffering - but it will not abandon God. In fact, the example of Job demonstrates that the closer we are to God, the more audacious our ...read more

  • This Is What I Came To Do

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 25, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,638 views

    The pressure of the crowd must never be allowed to take precedence over a right relationship with God.

    THIS IS WHAT I CAME TO DO. Mark 1:29-39. 1. The first Deacon (Mark 1:29-31). After the synagogue service in Capernaum, Jesus and His four companions went to the home of Simon and Andrew (Mark 1:29). Was this the first after-church fellowship - or perhaps even the formation of the first ...read more

  • A Greater Testimony

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 1, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,736 views

    Blessed Assurance!

    A GREATER TESTIMONY. 1 John 5:9-13. The claims of 1 John about Jesus Christ are trustworthy, because their source is God. Why are these claims important? They are important because they are the words which lead to everlasting life (John 6:68). A matter may not be established except on the ...read more

  • From Victim To Victor: The Widows Mite

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 6, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,792 views

    A contrast between acquisitive Scribes, and a gift given out of penury.

    FROM VICTIM TO VICTOR: THE WIDOW’S MITE. Mark 12:38-44. In our previous reading, Jesus pronounced one Scribe, ‘Not far from the kingdom of God’ (Mark 12:34). Yet Jesus’ opinion of the Scribes in general was not unlike His opinion of the Pharisees (cf. Luke 11:43). ‘The Scribes and the ...read more

  • An Answer To The Accuser

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,319 views

    Pleading the blood of Jesus.

    AN ANSWER TO THE ACCUSER. Psalm 26. One of the names for the devil is, ‘the accuser of the brethren’ (Revelation 12:10). That is his job: ‘your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour’ (1 Peter 5:8). Take the case of Joshua the high priest: ‘standing ...read more

  • Blessing, Lament, And Blessed Assurance

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 26, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,915 views

    The blessing and suffering of God's people.

    BLESSING, LAMENT, AND BLESSED ASSURANCE. Psalm 41. This is a Psalm of David. It is quite possibly about David. It is also about our Lord Jesus (except that Jesus has no personal sin to confess, unlike Psalm 41:4). It is even quoted by Jesus (Psalm 41:9; cf. John 13:18). It is also about His ...read more

  • Signs Of Messiah And The Age Of The Spirit.

    Physical healings and spiritual realities.

    SIGNS OF MESSIAH AND THE AGE OF THE SPIRIT. Isaiah 35:4-7. For those who are afflicted, who have waited, who have prayed and longed for deliverance: take heart, God will avenge, God will recompense, God will save you (Isaiah 35:4). The restoration of sight and hearing (Isaiah 35:5) is Messiah’s ...read more

  • From Adam To Christ.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,272 views

    From Adam, where are you? to victory in Jesus.

    FROM ADAM TO CHRIST. Genesis 3:8-15. Adam was the representative head of the human race, and when he partook of the forbidden fruit, he brought disaster and death upon all of his descendants. Spiritual death, separation from God, was immediate. Suddenly man and his wife realised that they were ...read more
