    based on 24 ratings
     | 8,759 views

    Joining John 3 with its reference from Numbers 21 to show Christ is the antidote to the poison of sin.

    I. EFFECTS OF SIN (NUMBERS 21:4-9) A. JOURNEYED IN THE WILDERNESS (21:4) 1. DEVILS TRAFFIC IN SPIRITUAL DRYNESS B. MUCH DISCOURAGED BECAUSE OF THE WAY (21:4) 1.

  • Blessings And Woes In The Gospel

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 20, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,135 views

    Jesus pronounces His followers Blessed, and pronounces woes against those who are taking their ease in this world.

    BLESSINGS AND WOES IN THE GOSPEL. Luke 6:17-26. The context here teaches us that Jesus had spent a whole night alone on the mountain praying to God (Luke 6:12); then He called His disciples to draw near and from them He chose His twelve Apostles (Luke 6:13). Jesus came down with them all and ...read more

  • Precious In His Sight, And Loved

    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,236 views

    The in-gathering of Israel, and of the nations.

    PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT, AND LOVED. Isaiah 43:1-7. This beautiful poem is a love letter. It is from the LORD, who created the world (Isaiah 40:26), and who directs the affairs of nations (Isaiah 40:22-23). It is from the One who created Jacob, and formed the nation of Israel (Isaiah 43:1). The ...read more

  • The Great Reversal

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 15, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,806 views

    Just when the tree of David seems to be left without hope, without offspring, this Branch emerges to establish justice and righteousness in the world: the LORD our Righteousness.

    THE GREAT REVERSAL. Jeremiah 33:14-16. In a double metaphor concerning gardening and building, the prophet Jeremiah was commissioned by the LORD not only ‘to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy and to throw down’ but also ‘to build and to plant’ (Jeremiah 1:10). There was certainly enough ...read more

  • Following Hard After God, Even In The Midst Of Trouble.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 10, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,502 views

    His right hand upholds us.

    FOLLOWING HARD AFTER GOD, EVEN IN THE MIDST OF TROUBLE. Psalm 63:1-11. As we enter into Psalm 63, there is both an intimacy with God, and a yearning after God. It was as if David was saying, ‘I know thee, but would know thee more.’ The Psalmist is not just on the fringes of faith, like the ...read more

  • Grace For The Graceful

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 25, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 18,293 views

    The grace of God continues for those who are already demonstrating the fruits of grace in their life.

    GRACE FOR THE GRACEFUL. Acts 9:36-43. I am sometimes at pains to emphasise how God’s grace abounds for sinners (cf. Romans 5:20), but in the instance before us we see how God’s grace also continues to abound for a woman who is already a “disciple”. Doctor Luke, the author of Acts, is at ...read more

  • The Explanation Of Peter

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 27, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,578 views

    Who was I that I could withstand God?

    PETER’S EXPLANATION. Acts 11:1-18. The turning point in Luke’s Gospel was when Jesus ‘steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem’ (Luke 9:51). The turning point of Luke’s second volume, the Book of Acts, is found in the breaking down of objections to the inclusion of Gentiles in the church, ...read more

  • The Encounter Of Openness And Truth

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 28, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,412 views

    It is God who sets things in motion, and God who opens hearts to the Gospel.

    THE ENCOUNTER OF OPENNESS AND TRUTH. Acts 16:9-15. It is a bit of a cliché, but ‘when God closes one door, He opens another’. This was certainly the experience of Paul and his companions: Silas (cf. Acts 15:40), Timothy (cf. Acts 16:1-3), and Luke (cf. Acts 16:10). We are not told how, ...read more

  • Easter Evening.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 23, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,559 views

    Our wisdom is to receive by faith what we do not yet understand.

    EASTER EVENING. Luke 24:13-49. A man named Cleopas and his travelling companion were on their way back from Jerusalem, walking the seven miles to a village named Emmaus. Their conversation was very much taken up with concerns about the death of Jesus. A stranger drew near, and walked with ...read more

  • Jesus Claims His Kingdom.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 31, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 575 views

    The ultimate Son of man, the new Adam, is given dominion over all mankind.

    JESUS CLAIMS HIS KINGDOM. Daniel 7:13-14. In DANIEL 7:13, “one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him.” In the Gospels, ‘Son of man’ is Jesus’ favourite name for Himself (cf. Mark 14:61-62). It was understood to ...read more

    "He doth send out His voice, and that a mighty voice" (PSALM 68:33).

    O SING PRAISES UNTO THE LORD. Psalm 68:32-35. PSALM 68:32. The closing exhortation of this Psalm calls upon all the kingdoms of the earth to sing praises unto God. PSALM 68:33. He is again referred to under the figure of “Him that rideth upon the heavens” (cf. Psalm 68:4). But now we are told ...read more

  • Love The Lord Thy God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 18, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 727 views

    The LORD is God alone, and will tolerate no rivals.

    LOVE THE LORD THY GOD. Deuteronomy 6:4-9. One of the core texts in the whole Bible is the Shema (DEUTERONOMY 6:4-5). “Hear O Israel…” is something of a refrain in Deuteronomy, much as Jesus would later often say, ‘he who has ears to hear, let him hear.’ Here we are told who the LORD is, and ...read more

  • A Bold Prayer.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 718 views

    Shaping our prayers in accordance with what we know about the character of God.

    A BOLD PRAYER. Genesis 18:23-32. The conversation between the LORD and Abraham suggests a relationship. God shares His Word with His covenant children, and prompts us to respond. If we are made privy to the purposes of the LORD then we may, without presumptuousness, speak our mind about ...read more

  • Privilege And Neighbourly Kindness.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 750 views

    He picks us up, binds us, anoints us, and takes us to a place of safety.

    PRIVILEGE AND NEIGHBOURLY KINDNESS. Luke 10:23-37. 1. Living in an age of Privilege (Luke 10:23-24). Jesus told His disciples, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see.” We cannot imagine what the Old Testament saints might have given to share in the privileges of those ...read more

  • A Question Of Priorities.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 24, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 822 views

    "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33).

    A QUESTION OF PRIORITIES. Matthew 6:24-34. MATTHEW 6:24. We must choose between “God” and “Mammon.” It is all a question of priorities. If we are a slave to the things of this world, then we cannot be an effective servant of the kingdom of God. MATTHEW 6:25. “Take no thought” is an unfortunate ...read more
