    Worship in context: words of warning

    SINGING PRAISE, AND LISTENING TO THE WORD. Psalm 95. In days gone by not everybody who gathered in our churches could read, so it was useful to learn things by rote. So when the praise-leader sang “O Come let us sing unto the LORD” (Psalm 95:1), the congregation knew to join in the singing of ...read more

  • A Turning Point In The Ministry Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 2, 2016

     | 9,100 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

    Being dead is not good. It’s not good for you and it’s certainly not good for anyone else. Being alive is much better...agree, I thought so. Yea, I know some say "isn’t it better to be dead and out of this sin cursed world and be with Jesus". Sure it is

    "The Dead "C" - Luke 2:49b - "I must be about my Father’s business?" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Being dead is not good. It’s not good for you and it’s certainly not good for anyone else. Being alive is much better...agree, I ...read more

    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

    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

    Faith cures fretting.

    TRUST IN THE LORD. Psalm 37:1-9. PSALM 37:1. Somebody is in trouble, fretting because of the unfairness of life: but the pastor’s responsibility is not to burden the poor soul with a ‘snap out of it’ sort of approach, which often only leads to further despair; but rather to present positive ...read more

  • Is Not My Word Like As A Fire?

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,151 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

    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

    There is no true God in all the earth apart from the God of Israel.

    A LEPER HEALED. 2 Kings 5:1-3, 2 Kings 5:7-15c. Naaman, as commander of the Syrian army, was a “great” man (2 Kings 5:1), expecting “great” things (2 Kings 5:13). The king of Syria held him in high esteem, because “through him the LORD had given deliverance to Syria.” It is good that, so early ...read more

    Definition of faith. Abel, Enoch and Noah.

    NOW FAITH. Hebrews 11:1-7. The night when I first came to faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the secret of my own room, I had been querying in prayer about the meaning of prayer, and about the meaning of faith. My Gideons Bible had a very helpful key by which I was directed on the first ...read more

  • Baptism And Communion In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 25, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,136 views

    The exodus is a type of our salvation, and the wilderness wanderings serve to warn us against presumptuousness.

    BAPTISM AND COMMUNION IN THE WILDERNESS. 1 Corinthians 10:1-13. 1. The continuity of Israel and the Church. The Apostle Paul, a ‘Hebrew of the Hebrews’ (Philippians 3:5), refers to the Gentile and Jewish Christians at Corinth as “brethren” (1 Corinthians 10:1) - thereby indicating the ...read more

     | 13,363 views

    The fear and the respect of the ever-present, all-knowing God.

    THE GOD WHO KNOWS ME. Psalm 139. What convinced me of the reality of the God of the Bible - “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 1:3) - was not intellectual argument, but personal encounter. This occurred in two phases: first in a sense of guilt and dread at the presence of ...read more

    Jesus seeks and saves the lost.

    A CAMEL THAT PASSED THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE. Abridged. Luke 19:1-10.

    HOW TO LIVE AS EXILES. Jeremiah 29:1-7. For forty years Jeremiah had been warning Judah and Jerusalem to submit to the LORD by submitting to Babylon. The prophet had been accused of treason, threatened with death, and put in the stocks. Now the inevitable had begun to happen. In ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 23, 2015
    based on 8 ratings
     | 12,959 views

    Who is this LORD, that we should worship Him? Why should we trust and praise this God?

    A CALL TO WORSHIP. Psalm 146. The last five Psalms (146-150) all begin and end with an exhortation to praise the LORD, addressed collectively to the congregation of God’s people. Yet it is not enough for the praise leader just to call others to worship: it is also the exercise of his own soul ...read more
