  • A Tree Planted By The Waters

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 5, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,015 views

    The two states of being, the two ways of life: confronting our own hearts.

    A TREE PLANTED BY THE WATERS. Jeremiah 17:5-10. The prophet Jeremiah’s response to the political and international situation of his day was, “Thus says the LORD” (Jeremiah 17:5). And what does the LORD say? He says, in effect, that there are two states of being, and two ways of life: and ...read more

  • A Sinner Saved

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 8, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,641 views

    A miraculous catch of fish, and the commencement of the Church's ministry.

    A SINNER SAVED. Luke 5:1-11. I can remember reading a quaint old book by a Puritan whose only acknowledged qualification for conducting a Christian ministry was, ‘Sinner Saved’. Without that we are either honestly mistaken, or really just charlatans and frauds! This begs the question, ‘What ...read more

  • A Single Commandment

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 7, 2015
    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,076 views

    A two-pronged, present-continuous, commandment to love - set in its original context.

    A SINGLE COMMANDMENT. 1 John 3:16-24. “This is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another” (1 John 3:23). Before we look at the two prongs of this single commandment, we need to set the verse within its immediate context. The ones who ...read more

  • A Resting Place For The Ark Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 7, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,662 views

    True prayer is based in the covenant and promises of God, which He has given us in Christ Jesus.

    A RESTING PLACE FOR THE ARK OF GOD. Psalm 132. King David, ‘the man after God’s own heart’ (Acts 13:22), wanted to bring the ark-of-the-covenant up to Jerusalem. ‘We consulted it not in the days of Saul,’ he reasonably reasoned (1 Chronicles 13:3). However, even our best intentions fall short ...read more

  • A Remarkable Sign

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2015
    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,943 views

    A babe, lying in a manger.

    A REMARKABLE SIGN. Luke 2:1-20. It is interesting to be revisiting the Gospel of Luke, with Luke’s impeccable, almost classical Greek style. As we return to the all-too-familiar account of the birth of Jesus, it is humbling to discover that some of the imagery of earlier sermons has fallen short ...read more

  • God's Workmanship.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 30, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,070 views

    We were dead in trespasses and sins - "But God..."! The gift of faith, and the works we are called to do.

    GOD’S WORKMANSHIP. Ephesians 2:1-10. 1. SIN. Speaking to the Christians in Ephesus, the Apostle Paul said: “You - who were dead in your sins” (Ephesians 2:1). Sin is any disobedience to, or breaking of, the law of God. By nature, since the fall of Adam, man is disobedient to God’s law. Man ...read more

  • A Final Personification Of Wisdom

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 15, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,279 views

    Wisdom is compared to the virtuous woman in this closing poem of the book of Proverbs: the very personification of Christ, and of all that we all should be in Him.

    A FINAL PERSONIFICATION OF WISDOM. Proverbs 31:10-31. The book of Proverbs closes with an acrostic poem which commends the virtues of a certain (literally) “strong woman” (Proverbs 31:10). If we have been reading through the book up to this point, we will find that we have met her already. This ...read more

  • The Widow And The Prophet

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 15, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,089 views

    Grace can truly be said in the household that has received the LORD's grace, and the gift of faith, the gift of prayer, and the gift of answered prayer. All we have to do now is obey.

    THE WIDOW AND THE PROPHET. 1 Kings 17:8-24. “Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months” (James 5:17). This may seem an audacious thing to pray for, but the ...read more

  • But Christ!

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 6, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,987 views

    The way into the Holiest.

    BUT CHRIST! Hebrews 9:1-14. We have been comparing and contrasting the new covenant with the old, the heavenly tabernacle with the earthly; the substance with its shadow (cf. Hebrews 8:1-13). Also the ministry of Jesus with that of Aaron (cf. Hebrews 5:1-10). In this passage we see ...read more

  • Unbelieving Behaviour And The Grace Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 28, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,041 views

    The folly of living as if there is no God. A people made righteous by grace. Their persecution and deliverance.

    UNBELIEVING BEHAVIOUR AND THE GRACE OF GOD. Psalm 14. The first verse of this Psalm is well known as an argument against those who deny the very existence of God (Psalm 14:1). I am sure I have heard it preached in that way, I know I have read it so, and maybe have even mentioned it in such a ...read more

  • The Prayer Of Jesus (Complete)

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 12, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,656 views

    Kept through the Name.

    1. I PRAY FOR THEM. John 17:1-11. During His last pre-crucifixion discourse, Jesus left the upper room with His inner band of eleven disciples, continuing to talk along the way (John 14:31). Then He prayed a very public prayer on behalf of the Apostles, and of the whole Church. This has often ...read more

  • A Living Faith At Prayer

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 28, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,380 views

    Having the audacity to implore God in the imperative.

    A LIVING FAITH AT PRAYER. Psalm 4. It is because we have had experience of answered prayer in the past that we can expect answered prayer for the future. It is because we are ‘the righteousness of God’ in Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 5:21) that we can ‘boldly approach the throne of grace’ ...read more

  • The Prodigal Son.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 4, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,792 views

    Coming back to our senses in the far country.

    THE PRODIGAL SON. Luke 15:1-3, Luke 15:11-32. ‘Horror of horrors!’ proclaimed the scribes and Pharisees. The tax-collectors and ‘sinners’ were drawing near to hear the words of Jesus! The three parables which follow in Luke 15 show the calm response of the Master. The parables have a common ...read more

  • Yea And Amen In Christ Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 29, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,305 views

    The integrity of God. The integrity of the preached message. The commonality of Christian community.

    YEA AND AMEN IN CHRIST JESUS. 2 Corinthians 1:18-22. On account of his decision to postpone his planned second visit to Corinth, the Apostle Paul was facing the accusation of vacillating. Is it ‘yes, he’s coming’ or ‘no, he’s not coming’? wondered his opponents. Paul is quite clear: ‘I was ...read more

  • Spirituality, Diversity, And Gifts.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 18, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,683 views

    No-one can say Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.

    SPIRITUALITY, DIVERSITY, AND GIFTS. 1 Corinthians 12:1-11. 1. Concerning spirituals (1 Corinthians 12:1-3). “Now concerning spirituals,” begins this passage (1 Corinthians 12:1). This may be masculine, ‘spiritual people’. However, given the emphasis away from individualism to “Jesus is ...read more
