  • The Petulance Of Jonah.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 25, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,289 views

    God, for His part, cares for the whole of His creation.

    THE PETULANCE OF JONAH. Jonah 3:10, Jonah 4:1-11. The LORD is merciful to those who repent (JONAH 3:10; cf. Psalm 130:3-4). When Jonah at last arrived in Nineveh after his circuitous journey, his message was simple: ‘Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown’ (cf. Jonah 3:4). ...read more

  • The Marvellous Wonders Of The Lord.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 29, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,040 views

    Walls of water in the sea, and streams and rivers of water in the wilderness. A cloud by day, and a light of fire by night.

    THE MARVELLOUS WONDERS OF THE LORD. Psalm 78:1-4, Psalm 78:12-16. Psalm 78 is entitled a “Maschil” of Asaph, thereby signifying an INSTRUCTION. It is one of the longest Psalms in the Book, not only outlining a history of Israel, but encouraging us to LEARN from this history (cf. Psalm 78:8). ...read more

  • Let Us Sing Unto The Lord.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 8, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,048 views

    This is serious worship, with its focus upon who the LORD is (the Rock), and who He is to us (the rock of our salvation).

    LET US SING UNTO THE LORD. Psalm 95:1-7a. In days gone by not everybody who gathered in our churches could read, so it was useful to learn things by rote. So when the praise-leader sang “O Come let us sing unto the LORD” (Psalm 95:1), the congregation knew to join in the singing of Psalm 95. ...read more

  • The Mammon Of The Prophets.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,300 views

    They may as well cover their lips since they had nothing to say from God.

    THE MAMMON OF THE PROPHETS. Micah 3:5-12. Jesus said, ‘Ye cannot serve God and Mammon’ (cf. Matthew 6:24). Yet this was what “the prophets” of Prophet Micah’s day were trying to do: they would preach “Peace” to those who fed them, but would “prepare war” against those who “putteth not into ...read more

  • The Davidic Shepherd.

    A prince from the house of David.

    THE DAVIDIC SHEPHERD. Ezekiel 34:11-16, Ezekiel 34:20-24. 1. The Good Shepherd (Ezekiel 34:11-16). First, we see the Good Shepherd as the one who seeks out the lost sheep, Ezekiel 34:11. ‘If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray,’ teaches Jesus, ‘does he not go to the ...read more

  • An Unspoken Providence

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,890 views

    The history of Joseph from Canaan to Egypt.

    AN UNSPOKEN PROVIDENCE. Genesis 37:1-4, Genesis 37:12-28. What are we to make of Joseph? A tell-tale teenager (Genesis 37:2)? A favourite son (Genesis 37:3)? A dreamer (Genesis 37:19)? Or perhaps a boaster (cf. Genesis 37:5-10)? Or even a prophet (cf. Genesis 37:11)? What is the ...read more

  • A Vow To Praise

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,201 views

    David's Psalm of praise.

    A VOW TO PRAISE. Psalm 145:1-8. The Psalmist David, speaking on our behalf, makes a vow to bless the name of the LORD “forever and ever” (Psalm 145:1); “Every day” to bless Him; to praise His name “for ever and ever” (Psalm 145:2). This is the only Psalm in the book with the words “of ...read more

  • Brothers Together

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 25, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,719 views

    Shades of opinion in the Christian church. We shall all appear before Christ.

    BROTHERS TOGETHER. Romans 14:1-12. This passage has much to say about receiving one another in the Lord. Paul defines “the weak in the faith” (Romans 14:1) as those who have scruples about what they eat (Romans 14:2). Do not “despise” them, warns Paul; but he also warns the weak not to ...read more

  • The Providence Of God.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,740 views

    Praise and thanksgiving for the LORD's hitherto hidden mercies.

    THE PROVIDENCE OF GOD. Psalm 105:1-6, Psalm 105:16-22, Psalm 105:45b. PSALM 105:1. There is a call to “give thanks to the LORD.” It is always appropriate to remember and acknowledge the LORD’s gracious dealings with us. Then there is an exhortation to “call upon His name.” We offer our ...read more

  • The War Against Sin. Revised.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 2, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 964 views

    Sin begins in the heart, and from thence proceeds out of the mouth, thus defiling the man.

    THE WAR AGAINST SIN. Matthew 15:10-20. MATTHEW 15:10-11. Jesus turned away from the Pharisees and summoned the crowd to Himself. “Hear and understand,” He taught. Despite what the Pharisees might teach, “it is NOT that which goes into the mouth which defiles a man; but that which comes out of ...read more

  • Solomon Chooses Wisdom.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 3, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,756 views

    Ask what I shall give thee. 1 Kings 3:5.

    SOLOMON CHOOSES WISDOM. 1 Kings 3:5-12. Solomon started well: ‘he loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father’ (cf. 1 Kings 3:3a). Yet there is a warning signal, which would become a motif throughout the books of Kings: ‘only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places’ ...read more

  • Sampling Some Parables.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,503 views

    Have ye understood all these things? Matthew 13:51.

    SAMPLING SOME PARABLES. Matthew 13:31-33, Matthew 13:44-52. I. The Mustard Seed (Matthew 13:31-32). This Sermon had its roots in a children’s address given long ago and far away. At that time I was interested (for all the best practical reasons) in gardening. I brought some seeds as a visual ...read more

  • Blessed Shalt Thou Be.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,281 views

    Fear the LORD, and it shall be well with thee.

    BLESSED SHALT THOU BE. Psalm 128:1-6. There are two words translated “blessed” in this Psalm. The first is ‘Esher,’ from which we have the name ‘Asher,’ and it means ‘how blessed,’ or ‘happy.’ So we have, “How blessed is every one that fears the LORD” (Psalm 128:1); but then, “happy shalt ...read more

  • Look Unto The Rock.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 12, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,243 views

    That Rock was Christ. 1 Corinthians 10 verse 4.

    LOOK UNTO THE ROCK. Isaiah 51:1-6. The imperative “Hearken to me” (Isaiah 51:1; Isaiah 51:4; cf. Isaiah 51:7) is strongly reminiscent of Jesus’ own expression, ‘He that hath ears to hear, let him hear’ (cf. Matthew 11:15; Matthew 13:9). Hearken. Listen intently. The words of God are ...read more

  • Complaint And Restoration.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 29, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,252 views

    God’s purposes are in no way thwarted by persecution, but rather, somewhat ironically, helped forward by the sufferers’ steadfastness.

    COMPLAINT AND RESTORATION. Jeremiah 15:15-21. This is one of the laments of Jeremiah. There is a complaint here (Jeremiah 15:15-18), and also a reply from the LORD (Jeremiah 15:19-21). JEREMIAH 15:15. The prophet is bold in his approach: “O LORD, thou knowest.” The LORD does know all our ...read more
