    The Witnesses To The Death Of Jesus.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 15, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 715 views

    Jesus was surely dead, and certified so by the authorities.

    THE WITNESSES TO THE DEATH OF JESUS. Mark 15:39-47. After Jesus ‘cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost’ and ‘the veil in the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom’ (cf. Mark 15:37-38), the first person to realise the full meaning of what has just happened was not one ...read more

    The Preparation.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,193 views

    A sacrificial insight framed by plots against Jesus.

    THE PREPARATION. Mark 14:1-11. 1. The Plot to Kill Jesus (Mark 14:1-2). The first thing that we notice as we enter into this passage is that it was the LORD who was setting the timetable for Jesus’ death. It was "the feast of the PASSOVER, and of Unleavened Bread” (MARK 14:1a). In other ...read more

    The Denial By Peter.

     | 1,063 views

    Watch and pray, lest you fall into temptation. Mark 14 verse 38.

    THE DENIAL BY PETER. Mark 14:27-72. In the Bible, the weakness of God’s servants is held aloft as an example for all to see. The account of Peter’s denial of Jesus is a humbling reminder that even the best of men is vulnerable to the wiles of the devil, if he allows himself to be caught off ...read more

    The Sanctity Of The Sabbath.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 8, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 583 views

    Nobody should be required to work more than six days a week.

    THE SANCTITY OF THE SABBATH. Deuteronomy 5:12-15. The Sabbath is to be “kept” and “sanctified” (i.e. set apart for God) - as the LORD our God has commanded (DEUTERONOMY 5:12). It is to be ‘remembered’ (cf. Exodus 20:8) - which implies that it was already known about prior to the giving of the ...read more

    The Embrace Of Righteousness And Peace.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 8, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 857 views

    “Mercy and truth are met together: righteousness and peace have kissed each other” (Psalm 85:10).

    THE EMBRACE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND PEACE. Psalm 85:1-2, Psalm 85:8-13. In Psalm 85 we have first a prayer (Psalm 85:1-7), then what has been termed “an answer of peace” (Psalm 85:8-13). The Prayer begins, not with personal desires, but by recalling to mind God’s past favours (Psalm 85:1-2). We ...read more

    The Relentless Rhythms Of Time.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 10, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 447 views

    A time for everything.

    THE RELENTLESS RHYTHMS OF TIME. Ecclesiastes 3:1-13. ‘Turn, turn, turn’ is the refrain of the old pop song based upon these verses. However, time is not circular, but linear: it is more like a river relentlessly, but always, running downstream. It is our subjective experience of time that gives ...read more

    Praising The Beauty Of Holiness.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 31, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 257 views

    Before we can talk about the “city of our God” we must recognise and acknowledge the God of the city. The Bible does not begin with Jerusalem, but with God. The New Testament does not begin with the church, but with Jesus.

    PRAISING THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS. Psalm 48:1-7. This psalm begins with a simple statement of fact: “Great is the LORD” and, because of the greatness of the LORD, He is “greatly to be praised” (PSALM 48:1a). Where is the LORD to be praised? In the place that God has chosen (cf. 2 Chronicles ...read more

    Imprecations In Context.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 19, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 201 views

    To attack God's people is to attack the LORD Himself!

    IMPRECATIONS IN CONTEXT. Psalm 83:1-2, Psalm 83:13-18. Today’s Psalm begins, “Keep not silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still O God” (PSALM 83:1). As if He ever would, when to attack God’s people is to attack the LORD Himself! ‘Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence,’ ...read more
