  • A Shortened Time, A Passing World

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 8, 2017
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,221 views

    The reordering of our priorities in the face of an impending crisis.

    A SHORTENED TIME, A PASSING WORLD. 1 Corinthians 7:29-31. This is one of Paul’s ‘I say, not the Lord’ passages (cf. 1 Corinthians 7:25), meaning that he is not here directly quoting a word from Jesus. Not that his comments are uninspired, as some contend. The Apostle goes on to qualify ...read more

  • A Model Of Ministry

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 9, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,332 views

    We must learn to become all things to all men, that we might indeed WIN/GAIN some for Christ to SAVE.

    A MODEL OF MINISTRY. 1 Corinthians 9:16-23. The Apostle Paul has argued that, as their minister, he had every right to expect a wage from the church in Corinth (1 Corinthians 9:14). However, and somewhat surprisingly, he then turns the idea on its head: ‘Nevertheless, we have not used this ...read more

  • Not Through Law

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 13, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,055 views

    When we believe in the God who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, our faith also will be accounted as righteousness.

    NOT THROUGH LAW. Romans 4:13-25. The Apostle Paul has already established that Abraham was not justified (made righteous) by works, otherwise he would have grounds of boasting - and who can boast before God? (Romans 4:2). Neither was Abraham justified by circumcision, since that rite was not ...read more

  • Having The Mind Of Christ

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Feb 8, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,050 views

    How do we come to a Christian mind?

    Having the Mind of Christ 1 Corinthians 2:16-3:9 Paul had quite a challenge with the Corinthian church which he had founded. He had gone off to evangelize elsewhere, planting new churches. He had hoped that during his stay, he had instilled enough of the ABC’s of the faith for the church to ...read more

  • The Correct Treatment Of The Poor.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,130 views

    Jesus said, You have the poor always with you. Matthew 26:11.

    THE CORRECT TREATMENT OF THE POOR. Proverbs 22:1-2, Proverbs 22:8-9, Proverbs 22:22-23. We have here three pairs of poetic couplets about attitudes to the poor. It is not that the Bible is against wealth itself, or even wealthy people. King Solomon, the writer of some of these Proverbs, was ...read more

  • The Word Of God, And A Heart For God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 6, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,414 views

    This is an abbreviated version of my earlier sermon on the whole Psalm, which was entitled 'A Heart for God'.

    THE WORD OF GOD, AND A HEART FOR GOD. Psalm 19:7-14. Creation, general revelation, does not stand alone in its testimony to God. The LORD God has entered into a covenant relationship with mankind, and spoken to us Himself. This ‘special revelation’ is explored in the second main section of this ...read more

  • Had It Not Been The Lord.

     | 9,062 views

    Let the redeemed of the LORD tell their story.

    HAD IT NOT BEEN THE LORD. Psalm 124:1-8. Earlier in the book of Psalms, David had recognised the LORD as ‘my light and my salvation’, and asked, ‘whom shall I fear?’ Again, he acknowledged the LORD as ‘the strength of my life’, and asked, ‘of whom shall I be afraid?’. This was backed up with ...read more

  • Christ The King, Our Advent Hope.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 25, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,356 views

    An everlasting kingdom.

    CHRIST THE KING, OUR ADVENT HOPE. Daniel 7:9-10; Daniel 7:13-14. Our reading in Daniel needs to be looked at within its own context: that of a dream portraying the chaos of Empire and Empire building, and the cruelty and ultimate futility of it all. In DANIEL 7:9, “thrones have been thrown ...read more

  • A Painful Account.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 11, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,809 views

    The substitutionary character of the sacrifice of Jesus.

    A PAINFUL ACCOUNT. Isaiah 53:4-12. The repulsion evoked by the Cross of Jesus is countered by the recognition of the substitutionary character of His sacrifice (Isaiah 53:4). We may have seen Jesus as One “stricken” by God – but the toll which He was paying was not His own. No, indeed, it was ...read more

  • Who Trusts In Him Is Blessed.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,812 views

    Tasting the goodness of the LORD.

    WHO TRUSTS IN HIM IS BLESSED. Psalm 34:1-8; Psalm 34:19-22. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul. Mistakenly thinking that he might find refuge with the Philistines, he only escaped from their clutches by feigning madness (1 Samuel 21:10-15). Then he hid in a cave. Knowing that David was in ...read more

  • Introduction To The Little Apocalypse.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 11, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,954 views

    This message is not just for the early disciples, but for us all.

    INTRODUCTION TO THE LITTLE APOCALYPSE. Mark 13:1-8. 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 ...read more

  • The Closing Of The Age.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 12, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,008 views

    We do not know the day and the hour when Jesus will return, so we also need to keep awake and be watchful.

    THE CLOSING OF THE AGE. Mark 13:24-37. The original “abomination of desolation” (Mark 13:14) prophesied in Daniel 11:31, was an idol set up in the Temple precincts in 168 B.C. (Daniel 12:11). However, Jesus here hints that there are other levels of fulfilment to this prophecy (Mark 13:14). The ...read more

  • Abiding In His Love.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,211 views

    When we abide in Jesus the true vine, not only do we dwell in His love, but we also partake of His joy.

    ABIDING IN HIS LOVE. John 15:9-17. When a Christian is going through trials it may not be some temporal judgment for some particular sin, but rather that the Lord is testing them for their own improvement (Romans 5:3-5). Will we keep His commandments in the face of trials, and go on abiding in ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,049 views

    We do not know the day and the hour when Jesus will return, so we also need to keep awake and be watchful.

    THE CLOSING OF THE AGE. Mark 13:24-37. The “last days” began at Pentecost (cf. Acts 2:17), and the fall of Jerusalem was part of the process which culminates in the vivid cosmic happenings outlined in MARK 13:24-25. Such an occurrence had been envisaged by Isaiah 13:10, in the context of the ...read more

  • The Baptism And Anointing Of Jesus.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 6, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,039 views

    It is good to follow the crowds who listen to the Gospel, but it is better to follow the Jesus whom we preach!

    THE BAPTISM AND ANOINTING OF JESUS. Mark 1:4-11. MARK 1:4. John preached the “baptism of repentance.” Baptism is a dipping of the physical body into water. The baptism administered by John signified a turning away from sin and a turning unto God. Every wicked act, every unguarded word, ...read more
