  • Breaking Down The Walls

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,644 views

    Church, in the final analysis, defines a people who are in the world but not of the world - ministering to the world.

    BREAKING DOWN THE WALLS. Ephesians 2:11-22. Church. A building or a people? Churches. Buildings constructed over supposed holy sites, in which various forms of worship take place. Some of these original citadels have disappeared, their walls removed to build alternative edifices. The problem ...read more

    Take this name with you all the time. (Christ)

    Six things the church needs Matthew 16:16 | And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. Matthew 23:10 | Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. Matthew 26:63 | But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and ...read more

     | 1,465 views

    Just as in Adam all die, so in Christ all are made alive.

    CHRIST THE FIRSTFRUITS. 1 Corinthians 15:19-26. Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ, there is no gospel at all (1 Corinthians 15:12-13), and we are of all men most vain and miserable (1 Corinthians 15:14-19). Thankfully, we are reminded with a sigh of relief, Christ is risen from the ...read more

  • The Teaching Ministry Of The Holy Spirit.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 25, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,370 views

    The Holy Spirit takes of the things of the Father and the Son, and opens them up to us.

    THE TEACHING MINISTRY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. John 16:12-15. Jesus had many things still to teach His disciples, but before His resurrection they were not ready to receive them (John 16:12). We grow up by stages, moving from milk to prepared foods, to fulsome meat. The Holy Spirit came to impart ...read more

    Bible reading: Luke 4:14-21.

    LUKE 4:19. Bible Reading: Luke 4:14-21. “To preach the acceptable year of the Lord” (Luke 4:19). The expression, “the acceptable year of the Lord” includes everything in the previous verse: that is, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the ...read more

  • The Holy Seed.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 11, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,229 views

    The holy seed is Jesus, and those united to Him.

    THE HOLY SEED. Isaiah 6:9-13. The mission of Isaiah was to go to a people who were proudly short-sighted, stubbornly deaf, and wilfully ignorant of the word of God (Isaiah 6:9; cf. Matthew 13:13-15). The prophet’s message was to be one which confirmed them in their preferred blindness, ...read more

  • The Nature Of The Resurrection Body.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 23, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,690 views

    Continuity and discontinuity between the natural and the spiritual.

    THE NATURE OF THE RESURRECTION BODY. 1 Corinthians 15:35-38, 1 Corinthians 15:42-50. We can imagine one of Paul’s hecklers in Corinth posing the question, “How are the dead raised? And with what body do they come?” (1 Corinthians 15:35). This does not sound like an inquiry of faith, but ...read more

  • The Blessing Of Participation.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,476 views

    Celebrating the Passover in the Promised Land.

    THE BLESSING OF PARTICIPATION. Joshua 5:9-12. The LORD spoke metaphorically of having “rolled away the reproach of Egypt” (Joshua 5:9). Egypt stands for the place of captivity. In like manner Jesus, by taking our reproaches upon Himself (cf. Psalm 69:9), sets us free from the captivity of sin ...read more

    Mary at the feet of Jesus.

    AN OUTPOURING OF WORSHIP. John 12:1-8. It was six days before the Passover, and the family in Bethany made our Lord a supper. The resurrected Lazarus was there, and Martha was serving. In a singular act of devotion, Mary took a whole bottle of very expensive Indian perfume and lavished it upon ...read more

  • From The Declaration Of His Innocence To The Death Of Jesus.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,358 views

    The kingdom was on offer in the Person of the King, even as He hung there dying upon the Cross. The offer has never been withdrawn, for any who will come to Him.

    FROM THE DECLARATION OF HIS INNOCENCE TO THE DEATH OF JESUS. Luke 23:13-49. LUKE 23:13-25. “I have found no fault in this man,” Pilate told Jesus’ accusers. “No, nor yet Herod.” “Nothing worthy of death” (Luke 23:14-15). “I have found no cause of death in Him” (Luke 23:22b). Thus we see that our ...read more

  • This Is The King Of The Jews.

    Jesus at the Cross, as Prophet, praying Priest, and saving King.

    THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Luke 23:1-49. LUKE 23:1-12. The Jewish authorities had no power to put Jesus to death. The sceptre had at last departed from Judah (Genesis 49:10) and, far from raising a mob to seize it back as they accused Him (Luke 23:5), Jesus willingly allowed Himself to be ...read more

    While Jesus stood bound in the house of the high priest, bold outspoken Peter denied Him three times.

    DENIALS AND TRUTH. John 18:15-40. Although the disciples all initially scattered immediately after Jesus’ arrest (cf. Matthew 26:56), Simon Peter and “another disciple” thereafter followed Jesus and gained entrance into the palace of the high priest. The girl at the door challenged Peter, ...read more

    Mary, Lazarus, and Jesus in the spotlight.

    JESUS RETURNS TO BETHANY. John 12:1-11. As the Passover drew near, Jesus set out once again towards Jerusalem, and stopped awhile in Bethany. This was the place, the writer reminds us, “where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom Jesus raised from the dead” (John 12:1). The ever-busy Martha ...read more

    The most significant census of all history.

    A ROYAL NATIVITY. Luke 2:1-7. Caesar Augustus sent out a decree that “all the world” should be “registered” (Luke 2:1). Unbeknown to the mighty Emperor, this was going to be the most significant census of all history. After all, even the most powerful of potentates are subservient, whether ...read more

    A sign refused - a sign offered nonetheless.

    IMMANUEL: WITH US THE GOD. Isaiah 7:10-14. The northern kingdom of Israel/Ephraim, along with her ally Syria/Aram, intended to force the Davidic kingdom of Judah into their alliance against the Assyrians (Isaiah 7:1), by setting up a puppet king - a ‘Son of No Good’ (Isaiah 7:6) - in Jerusalem. ...read more
