    The Grace Of Submission.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 4, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 415 views

    "But He giveth more grace" (James 4:6).

    THE GRACE OF SUBMISSION. James 4:1-10. James has been contrasting the ‘earthly, sensual, devilish’ wisdom that engenders ‘envying and strife’ (cf. James 3:14-16) with the ‘peaceable’ wisdom of God (cf. James 3:17-18). JAMES 4:1. With a startling suddenness, James asks, “From whence come wars ...read more

    Growing Better In Bad Times

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,082 views

    No doubt the young Samuel, like the Child Jesus, ‘became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him’ (cf. Luke 2:40).

    GROWING BETTER IN BAD TIMES. 1 Samuel 2:18-20; 1 Samuel 2:26. The children of Israel forsook the LORD, and the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and He visited them with temporal judgments (Judges 2:13-15). ‘Nevertheless,’ (O, precious word!) the LORD raised up judges, or ‘saviours’ ...read more

     | 590 views

    The superiority of Jesus.

    A NAME MORE EXCELLENT. Hebrews 1:1-12. The high Christology of Hebrews 1 bears comparison with that of John 1:1-14. We are first reminded of the many and various ways that God spoke through the prophets in times past (Hebrews 1:1). Then we are informed that the final word of God has now come to ...read more

    A Life Hid With Christ In God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 19, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 897 views

    If we have been made alive in Christ Jesus, then let us live our lives accordingly.

    A LIFE HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD. Colossians 3:1-7. 1. Since we have been “risen with Christ”, then we must “SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE, where Christ is…” (COLOSSIANS 3:1). We are to focus our lives on the One at “the right hand of God.” The posture mentioned is important: He is “seated,” ...read more

    The Parable Of The Sower Explained.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 16, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 931 views

    The Word of God is good seed (Luke 8:11): of that there is no doubt. So why is it that it does not have a good result in the lives of all those who hear it? The fault is in the soil.

    THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER EXPLAINED. Luke 8:4-15. There were great crowds pressing to see Jesus, straining to hear His words, or perhaps hoping for a healing touch. We can imagine Jesus spotting a farmer sowing seed somewhere nearby, and using this to illustrate His own ministry. This parable ...read more

    The Widow And The Great Woman.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 29, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 536 views

    Elisha addresses two situations: on the one hand, economic bondage; on the other, childlessness.

    THE WIDOW AND THE GREAT WOMAN. 2 Kings 4:1-17. These accounts show Elisha to be a worthy successor to Elijah, and his miracles anticipate the compassionate ministry of Jesus. 1. The Widow. We are confronted first with “a woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets” (2 KINGS 4:1), who ...read more

    Hatred And The Outworking Of Love.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 808 views

    Recalling Jesus' commandment to love one another.

    HATRED AND THE OUTWORKING OF LOVE. 1 John 3:13-24. “Marvel not” – stop wondering – that the world of the ungodly hates you (1 JOHN 3:13). Abel’s righteousness stood as a rebuke to Cain, and Cain killed him for it (cf. 1 John 3:12). The ones who ‘abide in death’ (1 JOHN 3:14) are identified as ...read more

    Guidelines For Christianity: Blessed Are Those Who Hunger And Thirst Series

     | 5,505 views

    Without the proper intake of water, your body will suffer greatly. The same can be said of your spiritual life if you don’t have a proper intake of righteousness.

    We’re in a series focusing on the (8) attitudes Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount we’re to have as His disciples. We are learning that each of these attitudes determines our altitude. Jesus offered these beatitudes to remind us that God isn’t focused on man’s outward ...read more

    I Go A-Fishing

    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,555 views

    In the ordinary course of duty we may not always see great success, but when we let the Lord join the party then the extraordinary occurs.

    I GO A-FISHING. John 21:1-19. The miraculous draught of fishes which took place on the shores of Galilee after Jesus' resurrection was not the first instance of its kind. It had occurred similarly at the beginning of His ministry, when He first used Simon Peter's boat as a pulpit. After ...read more

    It is important to keep a proper perspective on life, and to remember that time is not in our hands.

    “A Faith That Works: One Day at a Time” James 4:13-17 Charles Schultz has Linus say, “I guess it’s wrong always to be worrying about tomorrow. Maybe we should think only about today.” Charlie Brown responds, “No, that’s giving up. I’m still hoping ...read more

    When Ye Fast.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 327 views

    The deed is done before the all-seeing God. His approval is reward enough in itself.

    WHEN YE FAST. Matthew 6:16-21. True Christianity is not the dour, miserable affair which some of its play-actors portray (Matthew 6:16). So when we fast, we must wash-and-brush up in our usual manner (Matthew 6:17). The approval of God is far more to be desired than the applause of men (Matthew ...read more

    Jesus cares so much about you than ever really know

    Mark 4:35-41 I Peter:5:7 Topic: How much does Jesus really C.A.R.E.S. about you?

     | 6,304 views

    The speaking God makes His own case.

    THE TRIAL OF GOD. Isaiah 44:6-8. The LORD is deeply grieved by His people’s tendency towards idol worship. Again and again He asserts His superiority over the nations, whose ‘gods’ are nothing but dumb idols (1 Corinthians 12:2). Not only does the LORD put the false gods on trial, but He is ...read more

    The lessons behind a less well-known miraculous feeding.

    A TWOFOLD STEWARDSHIP. 2 Kings 4:42-44. A certain man brought to Elisha a portion of the first-fruits of his land (2 Kings 4:42). It is not clear whether this was an offering over and above that required by the law (Leviticus 23:9-14), but either way this was a token of good stewardship on the ...read more
