  • Yet I Will Not Make A Full End

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 10, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,912 views

    A text of hope in the context of God's determination against His people.

    “YET I WILL NOT MAKE A FULL END”. Jeremiah 4:11-12; Jeremiah 4:22-28. Many of our readings in Jeremiah seem to, like Lamentations, open out on to a vista of total devastation and despair. However, depending on what translation one uses, there is hope: “yet I will NOT make a full end” (Jeremiah ...read more

  • The God Who Weeps

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 12, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,761 views

    Our resources have run out, and there is no healing balm for the malady of sin apart from the blood of Jesus.

    THE GOD WHO WEEPS. Jeremiah 8:18-22; Jeremiah 9:1. We are accustomed to referring to Jeremiah as the ‘weeping prophet’ – and rightly so. However, Jeremiah’s tears do not just speak to us about the prophet, but also about the people – and mainly about God. In that sense, we might refer to the ...read more

  • Be Ye Reconciled To God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 9, 2017
    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,205 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

  • What Must We Do To Be Saved?

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 29, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,322 views

    What to believe about Jesus for salvation, versus a wrong kind of belief. What we are saved from, and what we are saved to.

    WHAT MUST WE DO TO BE SAVED? Acts 16:25-34. The Apostle Paul and his companion Silas had responded to the call of God to take the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to Macedonia. The first recorded convert to Christianity in Europe was a woman named Lydia, whose heart the Lord opened to give heed ...read more

  • The Fox, The Mother Hen, And The Chicks

    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,908 views

    Jesus determines his own path from Herod's jurisdiction to Pilate's.

    THE FOX, THE MOTHER HEN, AND THE CHICKS. Luke 13:31-35. Jesus had been going through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem (Luke 13:22). On the way he had encountered a man who was curious about the number of people who are going to be saved (Luke 13:23). The answer ...read more

  • An Essential Article Of The Christian Faith

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 6, 2016
    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,825 views

    Death is not the end.

    AN ESSENTIAL ARTICLE OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. Luke 20:27-38. The Sadducees, the ruling class in the Jerusalem Temple, flatly denied the resurrection of the body (Luke 20:27). They failed to find this teaching in their only authoritative Scriptures, the five books of Moses (Genesis to ...read more

  • Faith, Forgiveness And Healing

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 12, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,536 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

  • A Pleading

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 17, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,792 views

    We have left a God-shape hole in our lives and try to fill it with other things.

    A PLEADING. Jeremiah 2:4-13. In this passage the LORD yet again makes His complaint against the whole house of Israel (Jeremiah 2:4). As we read it, we begin to realise that this is also His indictment against the whole of mankind, and against the visible Church in particular. “What ...read more

  • Amazing Grace For Backsliding Believers

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,533 views

    The LORD also hath put away thy sin - 2 Samuel 12:13.

    AMAZING GRACE FOR BACKSLIDING BELIEVERS. 2 Samuel 11:26-27, 2 Samuel 12:1-15. It is not my purpose at this time to go into all the sordid details of David’s sin with Bathsheba, and his subsequent conspiracy to murder her husband. All this is explicit in chapters 11 and 12 of second Samuel. ...read more

  • The Tender Mercy Of A Jealous God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 3, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,569 views

    Let us pray for the whole state of the church of Christ.

    THE TENDER MERCY OF A JEALOUS GOD. Psalm 79:1-9. Despite what our first impression may have been, this is not a general lament about all the ills of the world but rather a particular lament about something afflicting the people of God. And even then, it is not just about ‘us’ but more so ...read more

  • The Years That The Locust Has Eaten

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 31, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,096 views

    A promise of restoration to the repentant. A prophecy of the outpouring of the Spirit. A warning of the judgment to come.

    THE YEARS THAT THE LOCUST HAS EATEN. Joel 2:23-32. A very old elder once said to me that his only regret was “the years that the locust has eaten” (Joel 2:25). However, there is no point in bemoaning what may have been, but rather our eyes should be on the here and now, and in the prospects ...read more

  • A Glorious Future.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 13, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 277 views

    It is remarkable that the LORD Himself should commit Himself to wash away our sins.

    A GLORIOUS FUTURE. Isaiah 4:2-6. ISAIAH 4:2. “In that day” is the same expression as is used in the preceding chapters (cf. Isaiah 2:11-12; Isaiah 2:17; Isaiah 2:20). There it speaks of the desperation of both men (cf. Isaiah 3:6-7), and women (cf. Isaiah 3:18; Isaiah 4:1) under the judgment of ...read more

  • A Hymn To The Redeemer.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 10, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,223 views

    Worship is not only a duty for the congregation, but also of the individual Christian.

    A HYMN TO THE REDEEMER. Psalm 149:1-9. PSALM 149:1. The exhortation to “Praise ye the LORD” is especially addressed to “saints” = those loved by God with His covenant love. All of God’s people are saints, and we are envisaged as met together in congregation, singing His praise. It is only those ...read more

  • Baptism Of The Lord.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 9, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,512 views

    The baptism by John, the baptism of Jesus, Spirit baptism, and water baptism.

    BAPTISM OF THE LORD. Luke 3:15-17; Luke 3:21-22. The ministry of John the Baptist was causing quite a stir. It was four hundred years since there had been a prophet in Israel, and expectations were high. The question on many people’s hearts was, Could this be the long-awaited Messiah (Luke ...read more

  • Our Rest Only In God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 16, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,958 views

    The Christian faith, after all, is deeply personal. When we abide in Christ, we rest in God.

    OUR REST ONLY IN GOD. Psalm 84:1-4. At the end of the celebration of Passover, in Jewish homes scattered throughout the world, the parting toast is, ‘Next year in Jerusalem!’ The sentiment echoes a common consciousness, a restlessness if you will, which is forever drawing God’s people back ...read more
