    A promise of a full redemption and restoration.

    A PLEDGE FOR A SURE FUTURE. Jeremiah 32:1-3a, Jeremiah 32:6-15. The wonderful words of hope which are found in Jeremiah 30-33 were spoken whilst Jeremiah was shut up in the court of the prison in the king of Judah's house (Jeremiah 32:2). Jeremiah was accused of committing treason, no less, ...read more

    There is no true God in all the earth apart from the God of Israel.

    A LEPER HEALED. 2 Kings 5:1-3, 2 Kings 5:7-15c. Naaman, as commander of the Syrian army, was a “great” man (2 Kings 5:1), expecting “great” things (2 Kings 5:13). The king of Syria held him in high esteem, because “through him the LORD had given deliverance to Syria.” It is good that, so early ...read more

  • Is Not My Word Like As A Fire?

     | 2,140 views

    What is the chaff to the wheat, says the LORD.

    IS NOT MY WORD LIKE AS A FIRE? Jeremiah 23:23-29. Speaking for the LORD, Jeremiah complained that his heart was ‘broken’ within him because of false prophets (Jeremiah 23:9-12). It is one thing to see such ‘folly’ among the Baal worshipers in Samaria. But even the prophets of Jerusalem ...read more

  • The Word Of God, And A Heart For God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 6, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,572 views

    This is an abbreviated version of my earlier sermon on the whole Psalm, which was entitled 'A Heart for God'.

    THE WORD OF GOD, AND A HEART FOR GOD. Psalm 19:7-14. Creation, general revelation, does not stand alone in its testimony to God. The LORD God has entered into a covenant relationship with mankind, and spoken to us Himself. This ‘special revelation’ is explored in the second main section of this ...read more

    Blessing the LORD for all His gracious benefits.

    AWAKENING TO WORSHIP. Psalm 103:1-8. Psalm 103:1. Sometimes we are sluggish about praising God, so we have to stir ourselves up, searching within ourselves whether there might be anything hindering us from the right worship of the LORD. Having awoken our “soul” to the task, we must delve ...read more

  • A Painful Account.

    The substitutionary character of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    A PAINFUL ACCOUNT. Isaiah 53:4-12. The repulsion evoked by the Cross of Jesus is countered by the recognition of the substitutionary character of His sacrifice (Isaiah 53:4). We may have seen Jesus as One “stricken” by God – but the toll which He was paying was not His own. No, indeed, it was ...read more

    Tasting the goodness of the LORD.

    WHO TRUSTS IN HIM IS BLESSED. Psalm 34:1-8; Psalm 34:19-22. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul. Mistakenly thinking that he might find refuge with the Philistines, he only escaped from their clutches by feigning madness (1 Samuel 21:10-15). Then he hid in a cave. Knowing that David was in ...read more

  • Introduction To The Little Apocalypse.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 11, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,035 views

    This message is not just for the early disciples, but for us all.

    INTRODUCTION TO THE LITTLE APOCALYPSE. Mark 13:1-8. Mark 13, and its equivalents in Matthew 24 and Luke 21:5-36, is sometimes entitled “the little apocalypse.” This passage is poised between Jesus’ teaching in the Temple (Mark 12), and the account of the Passion (Mark 14-15). The main thrust of ...read more

  • Scripture And Ministry.

     | 180 views

    Against a background of false teachers, and hypocritical hearers who will not endure sound teaching, Paul exhorted Timothy to urgently preach the word.

    SCRIPTURE AND MINISTRY. 2 Timothy 3:14-17, 2 Timothy 4:1-5. I). THE CENTRALITY OF SCRIPTURE. 2 Timothy 3:14-17. 1. Three times Paul addresses Timothy with an emphatic “you therefore" (2 Timothy 2:1) or “but you” (2 Timothy 3:10; 2 Timothy 3:14). In the first instance, this sets Timothy ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,874 views

    Can we be sure of our eternal life? A proper understanding of Eternal Security comes from a proper understanding of Salvation and of how we receive it and Who maintains it.

    The Assurance of Eternal Life Series – The Creed 1 John 5:11-13 John 5:24 - "I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.

  • A Pleading

     | 4,887 views

    We have left a God-shape hole in our lives and try to fill it with other things.

    A PLEADING. Jeremiah 2:4-13. In this passage the LORD yet again makes His complaint against the whole house of Israel (Jeremiah 2:4). As we read it, we begin to realise that this is also His indictment against the whole of mankind, and against the visible Church in particular. “What ...read more

  • The Power Of Praise.

     | 1,687 views

    As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God. God will establish it for ever. Psalm 48:8.

    THE POWER OF PRAISE. Psalm 48:1-14. 1. The God of the City. Before we can talk about the “city of our God” we must recognise and acknowledge the God of the city. The Bible does not begin with Jerusalem, but with God. The New Testament does not begin with the church, but with Jesus. This ...read more

  • Appearances Of Christ, In Heaven And Earth

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 1, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,157 views

    Jesus appeared in the earth in the incarnation. Jesus "now appears" in heaven on our behalf. He will come again to the earth to gather to Himself those who are eagerly awaiting Him.

    APPEARANCES OF CHRIST, IN HEAVEN AND EARTH. Hebrews 9:24-28. The ‘worldly sanctuary’ (Hebrews 9:1) served for a time, in both tent and Temple, but now the ‘reformation’ has been accomplished (Hebrews 9:10). The endless round of sacrifices would never suffice for the remission of sins (Hebrews ...read more

  • The Mystery Of The Resurrection.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 24, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 223 views

    What lies ahead.

    THE MYSTERY OF THE RESURRECTION. 1 Corinthians 15:51-58. 1 CORINTHIANS 15:51. When Paul speaks of a “mystery” he is not speaking of some secret to be kept, but rather of a hitherto hidden secret now being revealed (cf. Romans 16:25-27; Ephesians 3:3-5; Colossians 1:26). The Bible uses ‘sleep’ ...read more

    GOD’S COVENANT FOR ALL. 1 Kings 8:22-23, 1 Kings 8:41-43. Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of the people, and spread forth his hands toward heaven (1 KINGS 8:22).
