  • Astounded By Who God Is Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 12, 2021
     | 1,708 views

    Right Theology – if embraced and allowed to permeate our minds and hearts – produces right worship and a right attitude toward God. The Spirit can then use this right theology and attitude to coax us along to surrender ourselves to Him.

    Astounded by Who God Is (Romans 11:33-36) 1. The Dunning Kruger effect is so important for us understand. It is, in a way, defined in detail in the book of Proverbs. Even Shakespeare caught on to it when he wrote, “The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.” 2. ...read more

  • The Awesomeness And Nearness Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 7, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,553 views

    The holy God reveals Himself first to Zion, and to the ends of the earth.

    THE AWESOMENESS AND NEARNESS OF GOD. Psalm 99:1-9. The kingship of the LORD is awesome: it makes the people (or peoples) to “tremble” at His presence (Psalm 99:1). He is totally ‘other’ - dwelling between the cherubim, enthroned in heaven. He created all things, and even the earth “shakes” at ...read more

  • The King Upon The Cross

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 16, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,311 views

    As with us, so first with Him: no cross, no crown.

    THE KING UPON THE CROSS. Luke 23:33-43. 1. Amongst the Jewish people, the prevalent understanding of the coming of Messiah was coloured by their relatively recent historical experience under the Maccabbees. Surely the expected deliverer would come to break the yoke of Rome, just as Judas of old ...read more

  • The Nature Of True Fasting

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 16,120 views

    True fasting will lead the liberated soul to seek relief and liberty for others.

    THE NATURE OF TRUE FASTING. Isaiah 58:1-12. Surprisingly, the only place where the law of Moses commands fasting is in the “affliction of soul” associated with the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:29-31; Leviticus 23:27-32; Numbers 29:7). This is apt, as it immediately associates fasting with ...read more

  • Living The Life Of Christ

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 16, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,469 views

    Four imperatives for Christian living.

    LIVING THE LIFE OF CHRIST. Colossians 3:1-11. The doctrinal basis for the imperatives of this section is found in the fact that the ‘saints and faithful brethren’ (Colossians 1:2) have been “raised” with Christ. This connects with the symbols of baptism and new life in the previous chapter ...read more

  • The Little Apocalypse

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,626 views

    We do not know the day and the hour when Jesus will return, so we also need to keep awake and be watchful. This message is not just for the early disciples, but for us all.

    THE LITTLE APOCALYPSE. Mark 13:1-37. I. Mark 13, and its equivalents in Matthew 24 and Luke 21:5-36, is sometimes entitled “the little apocalypse.” This passage is poised between Jesus’ teaching in the Temple (Mark 12), and the account of the Passion (Mark 14-15). The main thrust of the chapter ...read more

  • Trouble At A Place Of Revelation

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 19, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,361 views

    The enemy of our souls tries to snatch away the words of our confessions of faith while they are still in our mouths, robbing us of our newly received blessing.

    TROUBLE AT A PLACE OF REVELATION. Matthew 16:21-28. The place was Caesarea Philippi (Matthew 16:13): a place of revelation, and a place of decision. Which of two realms will we choose? Which of two religions? Who is it that we are following? Jesus asked the disciples, ‘Whom say ye that I am?’ ...read more

  • Prophesying In The Camp

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 6, 2014
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,953 views

    The Sovereign Holy Spirit does not always operate where, when, how, with what, or with whom we may expect. Such things are not open to debate.

    PROPHESYING IN THE CAMP. Numbers 11:4-6, Numbers 11:10-16, Numbers 11:24-29. Chips (French Fries) for tea every day seemed a good idea for a Ship’s Company of 180 Cadets in their teens. But chips every day??? We rebelled - and our chips were replaced by some fluffy artificial instant mashed ...read more

  • Passing The Light

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 7, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,389 views

    Finding grace in adverse circumstances to pass the torch of the gospel on to others.

    PASSING THE LIGHT. 2 Corinthians 4:5-12. Paul had been concerned by some self-made ‘ministers’ who were nothing better than peddlers ‘making gain by corrupting the word of God’ (2 Corinthians 2:17). Paul and his fellow-ministers, by contrast, were neither dishonest nor manipulative. They ...read more

  • A New Vision Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 19, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,413 views

    The restoration of Job.

    A NEW VISION OF GOD. Job 42:1-6. The prose narrative bookends of the epic poem which is the Book of Job provide us at either end with the same judgment of Job’s character. Twice in the first two chapters the LORD taunts Satan with the integrity of Job (Job 1:8; Job 2:3). Twice Satan questions ...read more

  • An Infinitely Superior High Priest

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 27, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,296 views

    In an argument from the lesser to the greater, this chapter commences with a demonstration of the limitations of the access to God allowed in the annual Day of Atonement. All this anticipates the comparison: But Christ…

    AN INFINITELY SUPERIOR HIGH PRIEST. Hebrews 9:11-14. This short passage is the high point of the writer’s comparison between the old covenant and the new. In an argument from the lesser to the greater, the chapter commences with a demonstration of the limitations of the access to God allowed ...read more

  • A Sabbath For The Hungry, Healing For The Withered

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 8, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,089 views

    Is it lawful to good on the sabbath days?

    A SABBATH FOR THE HUNGRY, HEALING FOR THE WITHERED. Mark 2:23-3:6. Jesus said, ‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled’ (Matthew 5:6). The hunger and thirst which He spoke of in that Beatitude is evidently spiritual, but it is amply illustrated in ...read more

  • The Christian God Is A Bit Unusual, Isn't He? Series

    Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Oct 22, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 317 views

    Crossing yourself may seem a bit weird to Christians who don't do it- a strange ancient (perhaps slightly superstitious) ritual. But at the heart of it are two great biblical truths - perhaps the two greatest truthes of all.

  • Is It Time To Reboot?

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 4, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,418 views

    Today our lesson challenges us about our priorities in life – It asks the questions: “Do we still trust God today?” “Do we have Him in His proper place in our life?” “Do we still trust God in a pandemic?’ But do we really? Is God in 1st place on our priority list today?

    What reboot means? To reboot is to reload the operating system of a computer: to start it up again. Booting is starting a computer's operating system, so rebooting is to start it for a second or third time. ... Rebooting allows the computer to restart and get back to working normally. After a ...read more
