  • The Act Of Love Of A Forgiven Woman, And The Inclusivity Of Jesus' Ministry.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 23, 2016
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,133 views

    Nurturing our relationship with Jesus is an essential part of our Christian formation.

    1. A FORGIVEN WOMAN’S ACT OF LOVE. Luke 7:36-50. This incident ties in with two earlier episodes, illustrating Jesus’ conquest over sickness (Luke 7:1-10), death (Luke 7:11-17) - and now sin. The unnamed woman is identified as “a sinner” (Luke 7:37; Luke 7:39; Luke 7:47). This tells us nothing ...read more

    THE GREAT INVITATION. Isaiah 55:6-11. ISAIAH 55:6. We are exhorted to seek the LORD, while He may be found. If we seek Him with all our heart, and all our soul, we will find Him. Then He will rain righteousness upon us, making us righteous through the Lord Jesus Christ. He will bring life to the ...read more

  • A Pleading

     | 4,859 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

  • A Hymn To The Redeemer.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 10, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,305 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

  • The Riches Of His Grace.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 22, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 626 views

    A declaration of the LORD’s gracious intention toward us.

    THE RICHES OF HIS GRACE. Numbers 6:22-27. Jews and Christians alike are familiar with the so-called Aaronic blessing of NUMBERS 6:24-26. Yet this blessing is not in the power of the priest to accomplish. Rather, the priest or minister who calls down this blessing on the people is making a ...read more

  • A Prayer For Protection.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 376 views

    "Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man" (Psalm 140:1a).

    A PRAYER FOR PROTECTION. Psalm 140:1-9. This is a Psalm of David, no doubt from the time when he was pursued by his enemies in the wilderness. The Psalm switches between singular foes: pointing perhaps particularly to king Saul and his three thousand men at arms; and Doeg and the Ziphites, who ...read more

  • The Branch Of Righteousness.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 28, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 651 views

    The one who brings salvation, and a safe dwelling place for His people, is ‘the LORD our righteousness’ (JEREMIAH 23:6).

    THE BRANCH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. Jeremiah 23:5-8. “Behold… the word of the LORD,” (JEREMIAH 23:5). The prophet uses the image of a righteous Branch growing out of a felled tree – which so wonderfully typifies God’s dealings with His people. Just when the tree of David seems to be left without hope, ...read more

  • An Essential Article Of The Christian Faith

    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,964 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

  • The Numberless Proofs Of The Goodness Of The Lord.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,195 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

  • The Battle Within.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 685 views

    "But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law" (Galatians 5:18).

    THE BATTLE WITHIN. Galatians 5:16-24. We must “walk in the (Holy) Spirit”: to which imperative is added a promise, “and ye shall not fulfil the lusts of the flesh” (GALATIANS 5:16). We need to be aware of the spiritual nature of the battle in which we are engaged (GALATIANS 5:17). If we are ...read more

    ... For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. Luke 6:45c

    Do you know that what you say about yourself goes a long way to determine your entire existence? Try listening to yourself. Who do you say you are? A weakling, infirmed, never-do-well pessimist or a bold, confident, vivacious, charismatic, optimistic person? The list of wonderful attributes God has ...read more

  • The Persistent Widow: ‘living Life On Life’s Terms’

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 2, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,813 views

    Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time - 29th Sunday, Cycle C

    The motto, ‘living life on life’s terms’ means to accept the circumstances, environment and things out of our control. The widow in that town kept going to the judge and say “render a just decision for me against my adversary.” Her adversary was either exacting money from her unjustly or she ...read more

    Scripture fulfilled.

    JESUS CRUCIFIED. John 19:1-37. 1). BEHOLD YOUR KING. John 19:1-16. JOHN 19:1. The nineteenth chapter of John’s Gospel opens in the midst of the ridiculous drama of Pilate’s darting back and forth between the hypocritical Jewish leadership on the doorstep, who refused to come into the judgment ...read more

    Gratefully receiving His bountiful provision.

    PROVIDENCE AND PRAISE. Psalm 145:15-21. Whether they know it or not, all flesh is dependent upon the LORD for their daily provision (PSALM 145:15). Whether they acknowledge it or not, no man can find sufficient sustenance without the LORD. It is better therefore to seek Him first, knowing ...read more

  • The Fox, The Mother Hen, And The Chicks

    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,008 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
