    A Beatific Epiphany Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 22, 2016
    based on 16 ratings
     | 6,861 views

    There are some things in life which we must do alone.

    A BEATIFIC EPIPHANY OF GOD. Exodus 24:12-18. Seventy-four people were called by the LORD to ‘come up’ and ‘worship afar off’ (Exodus 24:1). Each one had a part to play, but not all the same part (cf. 1 Corinthians 12:12; 1 Corinthians 12:28). The seventy elders, for example, were permitted a ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,758 views

    The Old Testament expectation was inclining towards the coming of the warrior king. Instead, He appeared as the man on the donkey.

    ANOINTED RULER, DIVINE KING. Zechariah 9:9-12. In a series of visions, Zechariah reached beyond the needs of his own time to the coming of Jesus. In Zechariah 9:1, the eyes of men, and all Israel, were looking towards the return of the LORD to His city and Temple. The departure was foretold by ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,463 views

    The Bible records a Calendar of Events in the story of redemption by Jesus as Red-Letter Days: His Birth, Cross, Ascension, the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and the Second Coming.

    RED-LETTER DAYS IN GOD’S CALENDAR Here’s my calendar for July. (………) I mark up the days which have a special meaning for me or an event to watch out for. Last month I did have a calendar event – it was my birthday! That was a ‘red-letter day’, something which marks an important day. I won’t tell ...read more

    God Is Love.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,285 views

    We may not see God in His own Person, but where there is love, there is the evidence that someone has been born of the Spirit of God.

    GOD IS LOVE. 1 John 4:7-21. Every Sunday as I was growing up in Scotland, I would hear the minister of our church repeat these words from the beginning of 1 John 4:7 - “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God.” This is one of the tests of true Christianity. We cannot claim to have ...read more

    It’s worth following Jesus—even if it brings mistreatment—because, in the end, there will be victory.

    THE BIG IDEA: It’s worth following Jesus—even if it brings mistreatment—because, in the end, there will be VICTORY. Think about how absurd Christianity sounded back when it was brand new (in the first century): Christians worship a man who was executed as a criminal and who they claim came back to ...read more

    Too often in our Christian lives we become acclimated to certain phrases and in turn they lose their power. This is a look into the beattitudes

    The B’s of the Beatitudes Matthew 5:1-12 INTRODUCTION: Too often in our Christian lives we become acclimated to certain phrases and in turn they lose their power.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 30, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,043 views

    The ultimate example of humility: the 'self-emptying' of Christ. The obedience of the Cross; the sacrifice accepted. "Let this mind be in you!"

    THE HUMILITY OF CHRIST. Philippians 2:5-11. Jesus placed a little child in the midst of His followers telling them that they had to be like a little child in order to enter the kingdom of heaven. By this one symbolic act He teaches us to accept the kingdom of God with the humility and trust of ...read more

    Do you ever get into a situation where you are trying to follow God’s will but things just don’t seem to work out? If so, you are in good company. Find out how the Lord used a pinball to guide Paul, and you!

    We’d love to get an email from God with our day all planned out but it doesn’t work that way. And so we seek God and move forward—only to run into road blocks and rivers and dead ends. So what gives? Does the fact that things don’t work out perfectly mean we don’t hear God or are somehow not ...read more
