    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,597 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

    Jesus wept over Jerusalem, cleansed the Temple, and taught the people who were attentive to Him.

    WEEPING, CLEANSING, AND TEACHING. Luke 19:41-47a. 1. Jesus weeps over Jerusalem (Luke 19:41-44). As He approached Jerusalem, ‘the man Christ Jesus’ (cf. 1 Timothy 2:5) wept over the city and the people whom He loved (Luke 19:41). His complaint about the people (Luke 19:42) became a ...read more

     | 1,426 views

    Two examples of faith in Jesus.

    A LEPER AND A CENTURION. Matthew 8:1-13. At the beginning of the Sermon of the Mount Jesus had been ‘set’ and ‘His disciples came unto Him’ (cf. Matthew 5:1). At the end of the Sermon we were told of the other people who had been listening in, how they had been amazed at His teaching: ‘For ...read more

    The timeliness of what Jesus came to do, "once and for all" (Hebrews 10:10).

    A BODY PREPARED. Hebrews 10:4-10. The epitaph of the Old Testament sacrificial system is: “it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins” (Hebrews 10:4; see also Hebrews 10:6; Hebrews 10:8). Now it was time to move on to new and better things (cf. Hebrews ...read more

    The grace of God favouring Mary. Nothing impossible with God. Mary's submission to the word of God.

    ANNUNCIATION OF THE LORD. Luke 1:26-38. The angel Gabriel appeared to Mary, “a virgin espoused to man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David” (Luke 1:27). Gabriel hailed Mary as “highly favoured, the LORD is with thee: blessed art thou among women” (Luke 1:28). Mary was troubled at this ...read more

  • The Reign Of Messiah.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 448 views

    The nature and extent of His dominion.

    THE REIGN OF MESSIAH. Psalm 72:1-8. The name of Solomon is associated with this Psalm, and it is quite possible that this sacred song was premiered on the occasion of his coronation. However, Christians recognise Jesus as the fullest fulfilment of the ideal king in this chapter. Psalm 72:1. As ...read more

  • Where Art Thou?

    based on 2 ratings
     | 549 views

    The consequences of Adam's first sin.

    WHERE ART THOU? Genesis 3:9-19. Adam was the representative head of the human race, and when he partook of the forbidden fruit he brought disaster and death upon all of his descendants.

    'Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil' (Ephesians 6:10).

    THE TRICKS AND DECEPTIONS OF THE DEVIL. Genesis 3:1-6. Perhaps our first parents did not know the history of the fall of Lucifer, the day star in Isaiah 14:12-21 and Ezekiel 28:11-19. But it did not take long for the cunning serpent to draw them into his pernicious scheme to undermine the LORD ...read more

  • False Prophets.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 713 views

    'Peace, peace; when there is no peace' (cf. Jeremiah 8:11).

    FALSE PROPHETS. Jeremiah 23:16-24. Some prophets in Jerusalem were speaking a vision of their own imagination, and not from the mouth of the LORD. They were telling those who despise the LORD, “The LORD has said, Ye shall have peace… No evil shall befall you” (JEREMIAH 23:16-17; cf. Jeremiah ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 582 views

    “Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?” (PSALM 85:6).

    A PRAYER FOR MERCY. Psalm 85:1-7. The Prayer begins, not with personal desires, but by recalling to mind God’s past favours (PSALM 85:1-3). We must learn to “count our blessings, name them one by one,” as the hymn writer exhorts us, to raise up our ‘Ebenezers,’ our “stones of help” as the word ...read more

     | 625 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 Plea For Relief.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 148 views

    The church’s cause is the LORD’s own cause.

    A PLEA FOR RELIEF. Psalm 74:19-23. The Psalmist is addressing the LORD when he says, “O deliver not the soul of THY turtledove unto the multitude” (PSALM 74:19a). The soul of a believer is compared to a turtledove. Jesus addresses the Church as ‘MY dove’ in Song of Songs 2:14. Doves were kept ...read more

    The ratification of the Book of the Covenant: 'not without blood.'

    THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT. Exodus 24:4-8. This short passage informs us of the writing (EXODUS 24:4a) and ratification of the “Book of the Covenant” (EXODUS 24:7a). This book consists of the case laws and moral exhortations of Exodus chapters 21 to 23. Moses appears to have written these down ...read more
