    The Feast Of Weeks.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 4, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 122 views

    When I was a small boy growing up in England, Whit (or 'White') Sunday was a time when the girls put on new Summer frocks, and the boy wore a new suit. I knew little about Pentecost, but nothing at all about the Feast of Weeks.

    THE FEAST OF WEEKS. Deuteronomy 16:9-12. At first glance the Feast of Weeks appears to be a purely agricultural festival (DEUTERONOMY 16:9-10), an offering of firstfruits to the LORD (cf. Exodus 23:16a; Exodus 34:22a). The timing of the Feast of Weeks is seven weeks and a day (in other words ...read more

    The Creator God, Our Redeemer.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 361 views

    "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD" (PSALM 33:12).

    THE CREATOR GOD, OUR REDEEMER. Psalm 33:6-12. PSALM 33:6-7. “The word of the LORD” (cf. Psalm 33:4) is the same powerful, Creative word by which the cosmos was created (cf. Genesis 1:3). And Jesus is the Word (cf. John 1:1-3). “By the breath of His mouth” corresponds to the work of the Holy ...read more

    Standing To The Covenant.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 30, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 373 views

    "And all the people stood to the Covenant" (2 Kings 23:3).

    STANDING TO THE COVENANT. 2 Kings 22:8-10, 2 Kings 23:1-3. A pivotal moment in the history of the Bible was when Hilkiah the priest told Shaphan the scribe, “I have found THE BOOK OF THE LAW in the house of the LORD.” Shaphan took the book, and read it (2 KINGS 22:8). Shaphan the scribe ...read more

     | 622 views

    From suffering to glory.

    AWAITING THE MANIFESTATION. Romans 8:18-23. Paul weighs “the sufferings of the present time” over against “the glory which shall be revealed in us” (ROMANS 8:18; cf. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18). Our inheritance is not only what God has to offer, but God Himself (cf. 1 John 3:2). It is ...read more

    When Ye Fast.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 16, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 248 views

    The deed is done before the all-seeing God. His approval is reward enough in itself.

    WHEN YE FAST. Matthew 6:16-21. True Christianity is not the dour, miserable affair which some of its play-actors portray (Matthew 6:16). So when we fast, we must wash-and-brush up in our usual manner (Matthew 6:17). The approval of God is far more to be desired than the applause of men (Matthew ...read more

     | 377 views

    Redemption for the Israel of God.

    A STANDARD RAISED. Isaiah 62:10-12. This prophecy is fulfilled at more than one level. There is a level of fulfilment for those Jews who lived in the days of Cyrus king of Persia (Ezra 1:1-4). At the raising of God’s standard (ISAIAH 62:10), they were able to leave behind the gates of Babylon ...read more

    Reassurances For The Needy.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 26, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 278 views

    "For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever" (PSALM 9:18).

    REASSURANCES FOR THE NEEDY. Psalm 9:13-20. A personal petition seems to appear in the text with a startling suddenness: “Have mercy upon me, O LORD: consider my trouble” (PSALM 9:13a). Yet even in the midst of this anguish, the Psalmist remembers past deliverances, and addresses his petition to ...read more

    An Appeal For Mercy.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 2, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 352 views

    A prayer that God might honour His own great name.

    AN APPEAL FOR MERCY. Psalm 79:8-10. God’s people can sometimes see their afflictions as the outworking of their own rebellion against Him. Our failure to keep the LORD’s covenant may often be the cause of our problems, but our repentance brings us to the final court of appeal: His “tender ...read more

    The Call Of Wisdom

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,064 views

    Make me an offer I can't refuse!

    THE CALL OF WISDOM. Proverbs 9:1-6. Even before she invited us, Lady Wisdom “built her house” (Proverbs 9:1). The hewing out of Lady Wisdom’s “seven pillars” speaks of completeness (unlike the ‘folly’ in Edinburgh which was never completed), spaciousness, and endurance. ‘I go to prepare a ...read more

    The Dew Of Hermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,920 views

    The knitting together of kindred hearts in covenant love.

    THE DEW OF HERMON. Psalm 133:1-3. I like the Scottish Metrical version of this Psalm: “Behold, how good a thing it is, and how becoming well, Together such as brethren are in unity to dwell!” A good one to sing, perhaps, as we break bread together. “Behold” calls us to look carefully, ...read more

     | 10,883 views

    This Easter sermon describes the birth, life-cycle and fatal blow (as delivered by Jesus) of Death, currently on life support until the end.

    1 Corinthians 15:55 - Death: R.I.P. We are here today to announce the passing of a faithful attender of this church for many years. In fact this faithful one has been coming virtually since this church began. Although he’s not here every single week, we are often reminded of his presence. He ...read more

    Babel reversed; God’s purposes restored.

    PENTECOST. Acts 2:1-11. There is a time and a place for everything - or so the old folks used to say. There was a time for Christmas, and a time for Easter. There was a time for Ascension - and now, a time for Pentecost. The Greek reads, “in the filling-in of the Day of Pentecost” they were all ...read more

    Following the leading of the ever-present LORD God.

    THE SHEPHERD PSALM. Psalm 23:1-6. I. The LORD is my Shepherd. Psalm 23:1-3. When King David was a boy, he used to look after his father’s sheep - so he knew what he was talking about when he spoke of the LORD as his shepherd. As we all know, a “shepherd” looks after sheep. David led the sheep, ...read more
