  • Scripture And Ministry.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 16, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 116 views

    Against a background of false teachers, and hypocritical hearers who will not endure sound teaching, Paul exhorted Timothy to urgently preach the word.

    SCRIPTURE AND MINISTRY. 2 Timothy 3:14-17, 2 Timothy 4:1-5. I). THE CENTRALITY OF SCRIPTURE. 2 Timothy 3:14-17. 1. Three times Paul addresses Timothy with an emphatic “you therefore" (2 Timothy 2:1) or “but you” (2 Timothy 3:10; 2 Timothy 3:14). In the first instance, this sets Timothy ...read more

  • Seventy Sent Forth

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 5, 2016
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,396 views

    We are warned not to delight so much in our gifts and victories as to rejoice in the fact that our names are written in heaven.

    SEVENTY SENT FORTH. Luke 10:1-11; Luke 10:16-20. The first thing we might notice about the appointment of the seventy in this passage is that they were appointed by Jesus (Luke 10:1). It is hazardous for anybody to enter into ministry without the commissioning of Jesus (Romans 10:15). However, ...read more

  • The Epitaph Of The Ungodly And The Testimony Of The Righteous.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 26, 2022
    based on 2 ratings

    Our confidence rests in the covenant mercy of God, revealed to us in Christ Jesus.

    THE EPITAPH OF THE UNGODLY AND THE TESTIMONY OF THE RIGHTEOUS. Psalm 52:1-9. The superscription of this Psalm associates it with the tittle-tattle tale-telling of a certain Edomite named Doeg, who was Saul’s chief shepherd (1 Samuel 21:7). This man - not wholly untruthfully, but certainly ...read more

  • Awakening To Worship.

    Blessing the LORD for all His gracious benefits.

    AWAKENING TO WORSHIP. Psalm 103:1-8. Psalm 103:1. Sometimes we are sluggish about praising God, so we have to stir ourselves up, searching within ourselves whether there might be anything hindering us from the right worship of the LORD. Having awoken our “soul” to the task, we must delve ...read more

  • A Camel That Passed Through The Eye Of A Needle. Abridged.

    Jesus seeks and saves the lost.

    A CAMEL THAT PASSED THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE. Abridged. Luke 19:1-10. We were reading recently about a certain ruler who, perhaps recognizing that money is not everything, asked Jesus what he must ‘do’ to inherit eternal life. The young man had an extremely high view of his own heart, but ...read more

  • Fire! Baptism! Discerning This Time

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 1, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,174 views

    Division: a declaration of how things will be, rather than an imperative of how they should be.

    FIRE! BAPTISM! DISCERNING THIS TIME. Luke 12:49-56. There is a measure of dissonance as this passage comes crashing through Jesus’ symphony of peace. “Fire!” begins the Greek of Luke 12:49. “Fire I came to cast into the earth, and what will I if it be already kindled?” Fire speaks to us of ...read more

    Year C NINTH SUNDAY AFTER PENECOST (PROPER 13) AUGUST 5, 2001 Colossians 3: 1-11 Title: “The Heavenly and the earthly.” The first two chapters of this letter focused on the person of Christ. It is Paul’s belief that if we get Christ right we get everything else right. The second half of the letter ...read more

     | 4,088 views

    Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria.

    A WARNING AGAINST COMPLACENCY. Amos 6:1-7. Amos was a farmer from Tekoa, to the south of Jerusalem (Amos 1:1). The LORD called Amos to ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel’ (Amos 7:15). The prophet’s ministry was thereafter directed mainly to the ten tribes of the northern kingdom of Israel, ...read more

    A promise of a full redemption and restoration.

    A PLEDGE FOR A SURE FUTURE. Jeremiah 32:1-3a, Jeremiah 32:6-15. The wonderful words of hope which are found in Jeremiah 30-33 were spoken whilst Jeremiah was shut up in the court of the prison in the king of Judah's house (Jeremiah 32:2). Jeremiah was accused of committing treason, no less, ...read more

  • A Turning Point In The Ministry Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 2, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,007 views

    When we set out with Jesus, we can hardly begin to understand what paths He might lead us down to get to our destination. It is not always what we think, but we must implicitly trust Him.

    A TURNING POINT IN THE MINISTRY OF JESUS. Luke 9:51-62. “When the days were being fulfilled for the receiving up of Jesus, He set his face like a flint to go to Jerusalem” (LUKE 9:51). There is a sense of divine destiny about this statement, yet what does it mean? At first we are reminded of ...read more

  • When Israel Went Out Of Egypt.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,041 views

    A defiant celebration of God's sovereign power.

    WHEN ISRAEL WENT OUT OF EGYPT. Psalm 114:1-8. The exuberance of this Psalm is immediately evident. It is a recollection of Israel’s redemption story, beginning from when the descendants of Jacob made their exodus from Egypt. It is the prelude to the founding of what Stephen, the first Christian ...read more

    The LORD's leading in the pilgrimage of this life.

    THIS PILGRIM WAY. Psalm 84:1-12. At the end of the celebration of Passover, in Jewish homes scattered throughout the world, the parting toast is, ‘Next year in Jerusalem!’ The sentiment echoes a common consciousness, a restlessness if you will, which is forever drawing God’s people back ...read more

  • Is Not My Word Like As A Fire?

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 1, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,081 views

    What is the chaff to the wheat, says the LORD.

    IS NOT MY WORD LIKE AS A FIRE? Jeremiah 23:23-29. Speaking for the LORD, Jeremiah complained that his heart was ‘broken’ within him because of false prophets (Jeremiah 23:9-12). It is one thing to see such ‘folly’ among the Baal worshipers in Samaria. But even the prophets of Jerusalem ...read more

  • Seek The Lord While He May Be Found

    Responding to the call of God.

    SEEK THE LORD WHILE HE MAY BE FOUND. Isaiah 55. The Bible is full of wonderful gracious invitations. Isaiah 55 begins with a call to the thirsty to come to the waters. This is in order to quench, not a physical thirst, but a spiritual thirst. Jesus said, “Blessed are those who hunger and ...read more
