  • A Year And A Day.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 5, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,450 views

    The acceptable year of the LORD and the day of vengeance.

    A YEAR AND A DAY. (1) The Acceptable Year of the Lord (Luke 4:16-21). This is thought to be earliest record which we have of a synagogue service. Perhaps Isaiah 61:1-2 was the reading of the day, but Jesus deliberately chose where to end the reading. Luke 4:18-19 stops short of ‘the ...read more

  • A Greater Testimony

     | 7,813 views

    Blessed Assurance!

    A GREATER TESTIMONY. 1 John 5:9-13. The claims of 1 John about Jesus Christ are trustworthy, because their source is God. Why are these claims important? They are important because they are the words which lead to everlasting life (John 6:68). A matter may not be established except on the ...read more

  • Be Ye Reconciled To God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 9, 2017
    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,292 views

    The once-and-forever experience of true conversion, and the on-going necessity of being sanctified.

    BE YE RECONCILED TO GOD. 2 Corinthians 5:20-21; 2 Corinthians 6:1-2. As an ambassador for Christ, Paul was pleading with the Corinthians - on behalf of Christ - that they go on being reconciled to God (2 Corinthians 5:20). We may feel that this is unnecessary: if we are ‘called out ones’ ...read more

  • The Christian And Sin

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,182 views

    So what is to be the Christian's relationship to sin? Strictly speaking, he should not have such a relationship!

    THE CHRISTIAN AND SIN. 1 John 3:1-10. “Behold,” says John. Pause for thought and reflection. For it is indeed a wonderful demonstration of God's love that “we” should be called the sons of God (1 John 3:1). This was not what we deserved, but as we know from other Scriptures, it was ‘while ...read more

  • The Gift Of The Love Of God

    based on 7 ratings
     | 14,162 views

    Jesus was lifted up in the crucifixion so that everyone who trusts in Him would have eternal life. This was, and is, the supreme act of God’s love.

    THE GIFT OF GOD’S LOVE. John 3:14-21. The LORD God made heaven and earth, and all that is in them. He gives morning and evening, seedtime and harvest. In Him we live, and move, and have our being. The LORD God says of Himself: ‘I am the LORD, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me’ ...read more

  • A Garden Of Joy.

    based on 9 ratings
     | 14,287 views

    It is the acceptable year of the LORD. A young man in Nazareth preaches the good news.

    A GARDEN OF JOY. Isaiah 61:1-4, Isaiah 61:8-11. Imagine yourself in ancient Israel celebrating that most solemn of feasts, the day of Atonement. This, however, is not just any old Yom Kippur: it is the fiftieth year, and on this day a musical instrument formed out of a ram’s horn is sounded in ...read more

  • The Feast At The House Of Levi

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,698 views

    Jesus came not to call the Righteous but Sinners to repentance.

    THE FEAST AT LEVI’S HOUSE. Mark 2:13-22. 1. The call of Levi (Mark 2:13-14) Wherever we live, under whatever regime, tax collectors are unpopular. It was no different in first century Israel, where Levi’s trade involved collaboration with the Romans, and the constant suspicion of theft. Levi ...read more

  • A Right Use Of Freedom

    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,772 views

    Drawing enduring principles from an ancient debate.

    A RIGHT USE OF FREEDOM. 1 Corinthians 8:1-13. Faced with a difference of opinion concerning food which may (or may not) have been offered to idols, the Apostle Paul appears here to be addressing some of the slogans being used in the theological and ethical debate in Corinth. The first slogan ...read more

  • Faith, Forgiveness And Healing

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 12, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,614 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

  • Jesus In The Midst: The Upper Room.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 10, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,762 views

    Trying to understand Jesus without the Scriptures is futile, and comprehending Scripture without Jesus opening our understanding is impossible

    JESUS IN THE MIDST: THE UPPER ROOM. Luke 24:36-48. What a scene met the two from the Emmaus Road upon their return to Jerusalem! The dejected church was now declaring its Easter message: “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon.” To which they added their own testimony of the risen ...read more

  • The True Vine

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 17, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,011 views

    We draw our spiritual life from the Lord Jesus Christ just as surely as the branch draws the sap from the root.

    THE TRUE VINE. John 15:1-8. In Psalm 80:8-16 Israel is poignantly portrayed as a vine which has spread throughout the whole land, only to be torn down, devoured, and burnt at the time of the Exile. The vineyard motif is again taken up in Isaiah 5:1-7, where a moral reason is given for this ...read more

  • The Numberless Proofs Of The Goodness Of The Lord.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,215 views

    The coming of Jesus to die for us.

    THE NUMBERLESS PROOFS OF THE GOODNESS OF THE LORD. Psalm 40:5-10. The Psalmist is at great pains to demonstrate how “numberless” are the proofs of the LORD’s goodness (Psalm 40:5). What the LORD has done for us ‘hitherto’ (cf. 1 Samuel 7:12) becomes more and more difficult to enumerate: His ...read more

  • A Body Prepared.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,306 views

    The timeliness of what Jesus came to do, "once and for all" (Hebrews 10:10).

    A BODY PREPARED. Hebrews 10:4-10. The epitaph of the Old Testament sacrificial system is: “it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins” (Hebrews 10:4; see also Hebrews 10:6; Hebrews 10:8). Now it was time to move on to new and better things (cf. Hebrews ...read more

  • Ascension Day.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,208 views

    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
