     | 128 views

    The ratification of the Book of the Covenant: 'not without blood.'

    THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT. Exodus 24:4-8. This short passage informs us of the writing (EXODUS 24:4a) and ratification of the “Book of the Covenant” (EXODUS 24:7a). This book consists of the case laws and moral exhortations of Exodus chapters 21 to 23. Moses appears to have written these down ...read more

    Faith, Forgiveness And Healing

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,480 views

    Jesus' authority to forgive sins.

    FAITH, FORGIVENESS AND HEALING. Matthew 9:1-8. The place referred to as “His own city” (Matthew 9:1) appears to be Capernaum (cf. Mark 2:1). This is all the more tragic because of the ‘woe’ which Jesus would later pronounce against that city (Matthew 11:23-24). It would be a tragedy to have ...read more

    Two examples of faith in Jesus.

    A LEPER AND A CENTURION. Matthew 8:1-13. At the beginning of the Sermon of the Mount Jesus had been ‘set’ and ‘His disciples came unto Him’ (cf. Matthew 5:1). At the end of the Sermon we were told of the other people who had been listening in, how they had been amazed at His teaching: ‘For ...read more

    Scripture fulfilled.

    JESUS CRUCIFIED. John 19:1-37. 1). BEHOLD YOUR KING. John 19:1-16. JOHN 19:1. 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 ...read more

    Different reactions to the empty tomb.

    THE MYSTERY OF THE EMPTY TOMB. John 20:1-10. While Jesus’ enemies had been busying themselves setting a watch over His tomb, the disciples had been sitting quietly at home, keeping the Sabbath. At first dawn Mary Magdalene - and some other women - came to the sepulchre, and found the stone had ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 290 views

    The outworking of our covenant relationship with the LORD.

    HOW TO REVERENCE THE LORD. Psalm 34:11-22. PSALM 34:11. David addresses his hearers as “children” - like disciples receiving instruction at the feet of their Rabbi. The Scottish metrical version reads: “O children, hither do ye come, And unto me give ear; I will you teach to understand ...read more

    Third Sunday Of Advent, Year C: Advent Joy On Gaudete Sunday

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Nov 21, 2024
     | 1,029 views

    How many admonishing or warning songs or hymns can you find?

    Today the Church takes a break from the penitential color violet (often referred to as purple) which symbolizes penance particularly because Pilate dressed Jesus in a purple robe to mock his kingship. Today, however, is Gaudete Sunday and the color is Rose (often referred to as pink) as we ...read more

    The Glories Of The Messiah.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 13, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 426 views

    This is a song about love: but principally about the love of Christ and the Church (cf. Ephesians 5:32).

    THE GLORIES OF THE MESSIAH. Psalm 45:1-7. The Psalmist wrote of things beyond his natural knowledge. As a prophet, he sought diligently and inquired after the grace that was to come (1 Peter 1:10). Then he spoke and wrote as the Spirit of God led him (2 Peter 1:21). I). Psalm 45:1-2. ...read more

    The nature and extent of His dominion.

    THE REIGN OF MESSIAH. Psalm 72:1-8. The name of Solomon is associated with this Psalm, and it is quite possible that this sacred song was premiered on the occasion of his coronation. However, Christians recognise Jesus as the fullest fulfilment of the ideal king in this chapter. Psalm 72:1. As ...read more

     | 701 views

    Jesus has power over both disease and death.

    A STORY WITHIN A STORY. Matthew 9:18-26. In this particular section Matthew 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, we see the contrast in status of Jesus’ two petitioners. One ...read more

    A PRAYER FOR GENTILE BELIEVERS. Ephesians 3:13-21. In Ephesians 3:1-12, Paul related how he had been called to preach the gospel among the Gentiles.

    Having a mind set for God's service.

    THE MEASURE OF FAITH. Romans 12:1-5. ROMANS 12:1. “I beseech you therefore, brethren,” begins the application of Paul’s letter to the Romans.

    False Prophets.

     | 498 views

    'Peace, peace; when there is no peace' (cf. Jeremiah 8:11).

    FALSE PROPHETS. Jeremiah 23:16-24. Some prophets in Jerusalem were speaking a vision of their own imagination, and not from the mouth of the LORD. They were telling those who despise the LORD, “The LORD has said, Ye shall have peace… No evil shall befall you” (JEREMIAH 23:16-17; cf. Jeremiah ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 478 views

    "I AM the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep" (John 10:11).

    JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD. John 10:11-16. In John 10 Jesus effectively castigated the Pharisees for their failures as the spiritual shepherds of Israel. The image was familiar in a pastoral society, and echoed the Old Testament (e.g. Jeremiah 23:1-4). JOHN 10:11. In the fourth “I am” saying of ...read more

    Jesus was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

    ASCENSION DAY. Mark 16:14-20. Jesus appeared to the eleven, and “upbraided them with their UNBELIEF” because they “BELIEVED NOT” them which had seen Him after He was risen (Mark 16:14; cf. Luke 24:36-43). The passage fast-forwards to the Great Commission (Mark 16:15; cf. Matthew 28:19; ...read more
