    A Song Of Loves

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 21, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,777 views

    Both Psalm 45:6-7 and Hebrews 1:8-9 address Jesus as God, yet distinguish Jesus from God.

    A SONG OF LOVES. Psalm 45:1-2; Psalm 45:6-9. The mysterious word in the title of this Psalm, ‘Shoshannim’, may refer to a six-stringed instrument, or to the scattering of roses or lilies around the nuptial bed: what we might call confetti today. The word ‘Maschil’ may be a musical reference, ...read more

     | 6,603 views

    The end of one priesthood, and the promise of another.

    A FAILING PRIESTHOOD. 1 Samuel 3:11-20. What an initiation into the ministry of God’s Word! The boy Samuel was now informed of the judgment which the LORD had already given against the house of Eli (1 Samuel 3:12-14; cf. 1 Samuel 2:30-31). No wonder the LORD warned Samuel that it would cause ...read more

    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

     | 15,170 views

    God is numerically One! Yet how can God be One and still be three persons? Well that is a good question. Thank-you for asking! So what is the answer 1 1 1= ? What happens when you multiply 1 x 1 x 1? It equals One! So even numerically God is 1. Updated May 2022.

    The Lord Will Perfect Me

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 12, 2019

     | 6,934 views

    This is a Psalm of thanksgiving, and of hope.

    THE LORD WILL PERFECT ME. Psalm138:1-8. In Psalm 138:1, David praises the LORD. 1st, his praise is wholehearted (cf. Psalm 9:1; Psalm 86:12-13; Psalm 103:1-2; Psalm 111:1). 2nd, it is ‘in the face of’ (to use a contemporary term) all other would-be or otherwise imaginary ‘gods’ (cf. ...read more

    The Nature Of True Fasting

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 17,111 views

    True fasting will lead the liberated soul to seek relief and liberty for others.

    THE NATURE OF TRUE FASTING. Isaiah 58:1-12. Surprisingly, the only place where the law of Moses commands fasting is in the “affliction of soul” associated with the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:29-31; Leviticus 23:27-32; Numbers 29:7). This is apt, as it immediately associates fasting with ...read more

     | 2,616 views

    Until Joseph understood what was going on, he was trying to figure out a way to get out of the commitment. The Bible says that he did not want to expose her and publicly disgrace her.

    JOSEPH'S DILEMMA Text: Matthew 1:18-25 JOSEPH'S DILEMMA Text: Matthew 1:18-25 Matthew 1:18-25  Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found to be with child from ...read more

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 28, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,045 views

    Tying the Gospel portion of the lectionary (John 15:1 - 8) to today’s text (I John 4:7 -21) we can draw the conclusion that if we are detached from the life giving vine that we are incomplete, insecure, dissatisfied and spiritually starving.

    PERFECTING LOVE Text: I John 4:7 - 21 1 John 4:7-21  Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. (8) Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love.  (9)  God's love was revealed among us in this way: ...read more

    Part 1 of MERRY CHRISTMAS SERIES! There is ANOTHER SIDE OF CHRISTMAS. To the Bible characters who played an important role on that first Christmas day, it was not necessarily all peace and joy and love.

    Introduction It would be difficult to imagine Christmas without lights, good food; without new clothes, new shoes, new toys for the children, without parties; without merrymaking. Since childhood we have known Christmas in the Philippines to be a day of fun, festivities, that is almost impossible ...read more
