  • The Resurrection Life

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 26, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,716 views

    The key to Christian living is found in our union with Christ, both in His death and in His resurrection.

    THE RESURRECTION LIFE. Romans 6:1-14. It is decidedly unpleasant when anybody is subjected to false accusations and malicious rumours. Yet this was the experience of Jesus in Holy Week, and is the common lot of all those who uphold the mystery of holiness. The Apostle Paul was aware that ...read more

    Bringing food to a hungry world.

    THE FEEDING OF THE 5000. Matthew 14:13-21. 1. The creativity of feeding over 5000 hungry mouths. The feeding of the 5000 is recorded in all four Gospels.

     | 15,278 views

    Faith is renewed day by day in our experience of the storms of life.

    THE STORMS OF LIFE. Matthew 14:22-33. 1. The storms of life. Sometimes the storms of life seem to overtake us, even when we are being obedient. Jesus told the disciples to get into a ship and go to the other side of the lake (Matthew 14:22), but we see the ship in the midst of the sea tossed ...read more

    No longer a slave.

    AN OPEN LETTER. PHILEMON 1:1-21. Onesimus was a slave who had escaped from his Christian master, Philemon. Yet in a beautiful irony, having not ‘made it’ alone in the big city, he found himself at last brought under the direct personal influence of “Paul the prisoner” (Philemon 1:1). Many a ...read more

  • Entering Rest And Finding Grace

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 27, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,745 views

    Our rest based in the finished work of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Let us hold fast our profession and come boldly to the throne of grace.

    ENTERING REST AND FINDING GRACE. Hebrews 4:1-16. “Let us therefore fear” links this passage with the previous chapter. It has to do with the promise of “entering into His rest”, “lest any of you should seem to come short of it” (Hebrews 4:1). The promise of entering the promised land was ...read more

  • A Storm At Sea, And A Question Of Jesus' Identity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 25, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,810 views

    How can Jesus sleep on in calm and peaceful repose when chaos, fear, disorder, panic and confusion are all around? Does He not care?

    “WHO IS THIS?” Mark 4:35-41. There is an old joke that asks why the chicken crossed the road? The answer is obvious: to get to the other side. I suppose the same could be said of crossing the sea, crossing to the other side of the world, or crossing to a region such as the territory of the ...read more

  • Twelve Years Of Suffering, And Twelve Years Of Life

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 2, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,373 views

    A woman healed, a child raised from the dead. Application.

    TWELVE YEARS OF SUFFERING, AND TWELVE YEARS OF LIFE. Mark 5:21-43. In this particular section Mark presents us with a ‘story within a story’ – and, as you might expect with such a literary device, there are both similarities and dissimilarities. First of all, we have the not unusual picture of ...read more

  • Application Of The Truth Concerning The Brevity Of Life.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 9, 2021
    based on 2 ratings

    Momentary affliction and eternal glory.

    APPLICATION OF THE TRUTH CONCERNING THE BREVITY OF LIFE. Psalm 90:12-17. Psalm 90:12. When we do reverence the LORD, we will want Him to teach us to make a right application of the truth about the brevity of our lives. We need to know ourselves sinners, and to be aware that death is “the wages ...read more

  • A Sturdy Faith?

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 12, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,902 views

    We put too much faith in our ability to ‘get up enough faith’ (whatever that may mean), rather than placing our trust in the Lord. Do you see the difference? One focuses on US, the other on HIM.

    A STURDY FAITH? Psalm 125. Sometimes we speak of a person’s great faith, or their unwavering trust in the Lord, as if this was not attainable by any and each and all of us. ‘Oh,’ we say, ‘he has such faith’. Or, ‘she trusts so entirely upon the LORD’. But Jesus, whilst He gently rebukes His ...read more

  • The Word Goes Forth

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 25, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,215 views

    A metaphor from God's dealings in Creation to describe God's dealings with His Word.

    THE WORD GOES FORTH. Isaiah 55:10-13. I was in India, alone in my room, with the door shut. I read Isaiah 55:10-11. There God was saying, “My Word shall not return to me void, but shall accomplish that which I please, and prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” What an encouragement, I ...read more

  • A Pharisee And The Sinner

    based on 9 ratings
     | 10,632 views

    Jesus contrasts two men, and two attitudes in prayer.

    A PHARISEE AND “THE” SINNER. Luke 18:9-14. Jesus had just told His disciples a parable to encourage them to importunity in prayer (Luke 18:1). Now He turned back to the Pharisees (cf. Luke 17:20-21) to warn them, and those like them, against despising others and approaching God in a ...read more

  • "All In A Day’s Work”

    Contributed by David Roth on Oct 5, 2020
     | 4,873 views

    In a parable of vineyard workers, Christ shows that all who receive from Him, and all that is received from Him, is totally gift. It is not earned. As Christians we rejoice and are thankful that we are in His vineyard, and that His continues to call others to His vineyard to labor with us.

    Matthew 20:1-16 J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. (Ps. 19:14) “All in a day’s work” There was a cobbler who lived in a small town. He was good at making shoes, and made them for all the ...read more

     | 3,854 views

    The LORD is High for evermore. Psalm 92 verse 8.

    THE GREATNESS OF HIS WORKS. Psalm 92:1-15. This Psalm takes up a common Bible theme: the dichotomy between the “righteous” (Psalm 92:12) and the “wicked” (Psalm 92:7). However, first and foremost, taken as a whole, it is about the LORD. The LORD is mentioned seven times in this ‘Psalm or ...read more

  • Sing Forth His Glory.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 3, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,440 views

    The exodus of the children of Israel is a testimony to the works of the Lord, and points forward to our redemption in Christ.

    SING FORTH HIS GLORY. Psalm 66:1-9. The superscription to this Psalm is addressed, “To the chief musician. A Song or Psalm.” Whether sung or spoken, it is a call to all nations to “Make a joyful noise” to God (Psalm 66:1). Which God? Well, compare Psalm 100:1, where YHWH, ‘the LORD’ is ...read more

  • Exorcising A Demonic Faith Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on May 10, 2012
     | 3,578 views

    James continues the warning against having a lifeless, dead faith by reminding us that even the Adversary and his legion believe in God but do not obey him in proper actions.

    1. Johnny Carson Exorcist Joke When the movie, “The Exorcist” came out, Johnny Carson was the host of the Tonight Show. My very favorite joke he told was about the movie. He asked Ed McMahon, “What happens if you don’t pay your exorcist?” Ed repeated the question and ...read more
