  • The Grace Of Service.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 10, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,225 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

    Two hitherto hidden disciples step boldly forth.

    THE BURIAL OF JESUS. John 19:38-42. JOHN 19:38. After the flow of blood and water, a hitherto “secret” (literally, ‘concealed’) disciple stepped forward: Joseph of Arimathea. The “fear of the Jews” (the Jewish leadership, of which he was a part) had prevented Joseph from admitting his ...read more

     | 2,228 views

    The remission or retaining of sins is declarative, and belongs to the task of preaching the gospel.

    BREATHE ON ME BREATH OF GOD. John 20:19-23. It was the evening of the first day of the week: the day of the resurrection; the first day of the new creation. The disciples met together behind closed doors “for fear” (John 20:19). Fear stifles faith: this is why the Lord and His messengers so ...read more

    "I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice" (John 16:22).

    SORROW WILL TURN TO JOY. John 16:16-22. JOHN 16:16a. The sense of John 16:16 seems to be “A little while and ye do not behold Me…” This refers to the fact that within hours Jesus would be arrested, tried, crucified, and buried. JOHN 16:16b. “again a little while, and ye shall see me” brings us ...read more

  • Acquired Thru Faith-6(:2b, :3b)

     | 568 views

    6 of 10. The apostle Peter informs those who are faithful in Christ, that they are amply supplied for godly living. God’s people are amply supplied for godly living thru their faith. But, ?What does Christian faith acquire for God’s people? A provision of God, acquired thru faith in Jesus, is...

    ACQUIRED Thru FAITH-VI—2Peter 1:2b, 3b(:1-4) Attention: Symbiotic relationships: Dinoflagellates Science tells us that tiny microscopic one-celled plants that live in the oceans, produce at least half of the oxygen that humans & air-breathing animals need to ...read more

  • The God Who Knows Me

    based on 8 ratings
     | 13,390 views

    The fear and the respect of the ever-present, all-knowing God.

    THE GOD WHO KNOWS ME. Psalm 139. What convinced me of the reality of the God of the Bible - “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 1:3) - was not intellectual argument, but personal encounter. This occurred in two phases: first in a sense of guilt and dread at the presence of ...read more

  • A Reflected Glory

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 16, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,954 views

    What is amazing, as Moses came down from the mountain, is that he was unaware that his face was, literally, sending out horns of light (Exodus 34:29).

    A REFLECTED GLORY. Exodus 34:29-35. In discussing the nature of the resurrection body, the Apostle Paul comments, ‘There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon’ (1 Corinthians 15:41). In the Epistle to the Hebrews, we read that Christ Jesus is ‘worthy of more glory than Moses’ ...read more

  • Breaking The Silence (Advent 2 2023)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Dec 8, 2023
     | 1,657 views

    All four of the Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John speak of the ministry of the John the Baptizer who is the messenger who prepares the way for Jesus. A second reason that John’s arrival is such a big deal is because there had not been any prophets for 400 years.

    BREAKING THE SILENCE Text: Mark 1:1 - 8 Mark 1:1-11 The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. (2) As it is written in the prophet Isaiah, "See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way; (3) the voice of one crying out in the wilderness: ...read more

    An everlasting kingdom.

    CHRIST THE KING, OUR ADVENT HOPE. Daniel 7:9-10; Daniel 7:13-14. Our reading in Daniel needs to be looked at within its own context: that of a dream portraying the chaos of Empire and Empire building, and the cruelty and ultimate futility of it all. In DANIEL 7:9, “thrones have been thrown ...read more

    Importunity "UNTIL..."

    A CITY NOT FORSAKEN. Isaiah 62:6-12. I reside just outside the walls of a quaint old English city - so quaint, that there is still a civil servant who holds the office of City-crier.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,676 views

    Jesus' coming is delayed to give the greater number of people the greater opportunity to repent.

    TIME FOR TRUE REPENTANCE. 2 Peter 3. After the description of the false teachers who deny the second coming of Jesus - which is concluded with the horrible picture of 2 Peter 2:22 - Peter turns to his protégés and effectively says, “I am assured of better things concerning you” (cf. ...read more

    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
