    The Arrest Of Jesus.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 4, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,032 views

    The willingness of Jesus to die for us.

    THE ARREST OF JESUS. John 18:1-14. After the Passover meal, the institution of the Lord’s Supper, the Upper Room discourse, and Jesus’ great high priestly prayer, Jesus led His disciples over the brook Kidron to the garden of Gethsemane (John 18:1). Judas, possessed by Satan (cf. John 13:2; ...read more

     | 992 views

    All our actions should be regulated by the word of God.

    THE ARK BROUGHT UP TO JERUSALEM. 2 Samuel 6:1-5, 2 Samuel 6:12-19. No sooner had David been anointed king over all Israel, than the Philistines came up against him. David’s instinct back then was to ‘enquire of the LORD’ as to what he should do (cf. 2 Samuel 5:17-19). And David ‘did as the LORD ...read more

    The LORD accept thy burnt sacrifice. Psalm 20.3.

    A PRAYER FOR THE KING. Psalm 20:1-9. Jesus took with Him Peter, James and John and instructed them to ‘watch’ with Him (cf. Matthew 26:38), and to ‘watch and pray’ (cf. Matthew 26:41). I wonder what prayers they might have made on His behalf if their sleepy heads could have stayed awake long ...read more

    Inside The Prayer Of Jesus.

     | 3,789 views

    Entrusted to the Son by the Father.

    INSIDE THE PRAYER OF JESUS. John 17:6-19. Jesus was aware of the power invested in Him to bring “all flesh” (John 17:2) under the sound of the Gospel (Matthew 28:18-19), and to give eternal life to such as the Father gave Him (John 17:2). This is a great mystery, wrapped up as it is in what we ...read more

    This Is The Commandment.

     | 2,539 views

    Hear O Israel: the LORD our God, the LORD is one. Thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Deuteronomy 6:4-5.

    THIS IS THE COMMANDMENT. Deuteronomy 6:1-9. “This is the commandment” (Deuteronomy 6:1) is emphatic. The whole law is boiled down to the one commandment to “love the LORD thy God” (Deuteronomy 6:5). The outworking of this commandment is seen in our ‘loving our neighbours as ourselves’ ...read more

    A Word To The Wise

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 7, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,358 views

    The wisdom of the wise versus the foolishness of preaching.

    A WORD TO THE WISE. 1 Corinthians 1:18-25. The common consensus in the world of Paul’s day was that God exists. The Jews knew the identity of the true and living God from their past encounters with Him; but the Greeks were floundering about in the dark, seeking ways of access to God through the ...read more

    Anointing A Man After The Heart Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 26, 2016
    based on 15 ratings
     | 14,528 views

    The Lord's criteria for service.

    ANOINTING A MAN AFTER GOD’S OWN HEART. 1 Samuel 15:34-35; 1 Samuel 16:1-13. Israel had demanded a king, just so that they could be like the other nations. Samuel had protested, but the LORD allowed it. After all, they were not rejecting Samuel: they were rejecting the LORD (1 Samuel 8:4-7). ...read more

    The Grace Of Service.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 10, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,148 views

    A call to sober-minded watchfulness in these last days.

    THE GRACE OF SERVICE. 1 Peter 4:7-11. Peter has already told us the ‘last days’ began at Pentecost (cf. Acts 2:16-18). Now he tells us that “the end of all things is at hand” (1 PETER 4:7a). Although he wrote those words nearly two millennia ago, that sense of imminence remains. The question is: ...read more

    Behold Your King.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,651 views

    The humiliation of Jesus, the frustration of Pilate, and the treason of the Jewish priesthood.

    BEHOLD YOUR KING. John 19:1-16. The nineteenth chapter of John’s Gospel opens in the midst of the ridiculous drama of Pilate’s darting back and forth between the hypocritical Jewish leadership on the doorstep, who refused to come into the judgment hall of the palace ‘lest they be defiled and ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,300 views

    "For through Him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father" (Ephesians 2:18).

    FROM ALIENATION TO RECONCILIATION. Ephesians 2:11-22. EPHESIANS 2:11. Paul addresses the Ephesian church as being “in times past Gentiles in the flesh.” and he points to the historic antagonism between Jews and non-Jews. On the one hand, Gentiles were scorned as “the Uncircumcision;” on the ...read more

    The Vain Confidence Of The Disobedient.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 21, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 204 views

    We might hide our sins from men, but God knows our hearts.

    THE VAIN CONFIDENCE OF THE DISOBEDIENT. Jeremiah 7:9-15. As Paul unfolded his doctrine of justification by grace through faith in his Epistle to the Romans, he uttered the phrase ‘But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound’ (cf. Romans 5:20), and he realised that he had to square up to ...read more

     | 6,884 views

    Of such is the kingdom of God.

    THE TRUST OF A LITTLE CHILD. Mark 10:13-16. In one of our previous readings, Jesus set a little child in the midst of His disciples (Mark 9:36). Now such children, in the ancient world, had no rights: yet Jesus was happy to scoop such a one up into His holy arms and teach. We noticed then ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 840 views

    Jesus was surely dead, and certified so by the authorities.

    THE WITNESSES TO THE DEATH OF JESUS. Mark 15:39-47. After Jesus ‘cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost’ and ‘the veil in the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom’ (cf. Mark 15:37-38), the first person to realise the full meaning of what has just happened was not one ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,444 views

    He is the Good Shepherd who seeks out the lost sheep, and dies for His flock.

    THE SELF- SACRIFICE OF THE SHEPHERD. John 10:11-18. In the fourth “I am” saying of John’s Gospel, Jesus appears as the Good Shepherd who gives His life for the sheep (John 10:11). Thus He is made known to His sheep (John 10:14). In John 10 Jesus effectively castigated the Pharisees for their ...read more
