  • The Unveiling Of The Mystery.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2013
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,446 views

    A hitherto hidden reality is now revealed.

    THE UNVEILING OF THE MYSTERY. Ephesians 3:1-12. The “For this cause” of Ephesians 3:1 follows Paul’s contemplation of the reconciliation accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:11-22). Jesus, by His own blood, had resolved the estrangement between God and man, and had broken down the ...read more

  • A Light For The Nations

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 8,109 views

    The call of the Gentiles.

    A LIGHT FOR THE NATIONS. Isaiah 49:1-7 - Second Servant Song. 1. The universality of His mission (Isaiah 49:1). The Servant’s appeal to the islands (or coastlands) and “far off people” ultimately embraces the whole world (Revelation 7:9; Revelation 14:6). Yet He never loses sight of His call ...read more

  • Let Us Go To The House Of The Lord

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 24, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 10,582 views

    The peace of Jerusalem is tied up with the house of the Lord.

    LET US GO TO THE HOUSE OF THE LORD. Psalm 122:1-9. The “house of the LORD” encompasses this Psalm (Psalm 122:1; Psalm 122:9). Jerusalem, in turn, encompassed the house of the LORD (Psalm 122:2; Psalm 122:3; Psalm 122:7). Jerusalem thus became the place of pilgrimage and thanksgiving (Psalm ...read more

  • Grace And Peace, Thanksgiving And Fellowship

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 11 ratings
     | 7,157 views

    Grace as the source of spiritual gifts. Peace as something more than the absence of war. Thanksgiving is for always. Fellowship in Christ draws individuals together.

    GRACE AND PEACE, THANKSGIVING AND FELLOWSHIP. 1 Corinthians 1:3-9. It was customary for Greek and Roman letter-writers in the first century A.D. to prefix their epistles with “greetings” (Acts 15:23; James 1:1). Paul regularly uses a pun, replacing “greetings” with “grace” (1 Corinthians 1:3). ...read more

  • Galilee Of The Nations

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,277 views

    Jesus reaches out beyond the borders of life.

    GALILEE OF THE NATIONS. Matthew 4:12-23. In Egypt, Joseph Ben-David was instructed to take the holy family back to Israel, because Jesus had things to do there. Joseph took Jesus and Mary to Nazareth in Galilee. There they dwelt, and there Jesus grew up (Matthew 2:20-23). The years passed by, ...read more

  • The Controversy Of The Lord

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,435 views

    What does the LORD require of you?

    THE LORD’S CONTROVERSY. Micah 6:1-8. It is tragic when God has to serve a summons upon His own people. The “prisoner in the dock” is Israel herself, and the LORD is ready to submit His case. The witnesses are the mountains and hills (Micah 6:1), and strong foundations of the earth (Micah 6:2). ...read more

  • The Blessings Of The Christian

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,777 views

    We willingly accept the blessings of the Beatitudes, but must also embrace the responsibilities.

    THE BLESSINGS OF THE CHRISTIAN. Matthew 5:1-12. The Sermon on the Mount is directed towards those who are already disciples of Jesus (Matthew 5:1). This is important. It counters both those religious hopefuls who find the Beatitudes impossible to keep, and those religious moralists who glibly ...read more

  • The Nature Of True Fasting

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 17,004 views

    True fasting will lead the liberated soul to seek relief and liberty for others.

    THE NATURE OF TRUE FASTING. Isaiah 58:1-12. Surprisingly, the only place where the law of Moses commands fasting is in the “affliction of soul” associated with the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:29-31; Leviticus 23:27-32; Numbers 29:7). This is apt, as it immediately associates fasting with ...read more

  • Salt And Light

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,967 views

    True Christians cannot remain secret for long.

    SALT AND LIGHT. Matthew 5:13-16. The metaphors of salt and light follow immediately after Jesus’ profile of the blessed Christian. The meek shall inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5) because meekness is not weakness, but quite the contrary. The peacemakers (Matthew 5:9) are surely not merely sitting ...read more

  • The Restoration Of The People Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,865 views

    Faithful preachers are sent to restore the earth, so that the meek may inherit it.

    THE RESTORATION OF GOD’S PEOPLE. Isaiah 49:8-16. In Isaiah 49:3 the Servant is named as Israel, yet the New Testament identifies the Servant as Jesus (Matthew 12:14-21; Acts 8:32-35): our Lord is the ideal which Israel typologically represented. Paul’s quotation of Isaiah 49:6 teaches us that ...read more

  • I Am Not Ashamed Of The Gospel

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,467 views

    Incentives to share the gospel with others.

    I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL. Romans 1:8-17. It seems possible that the church in Rome began as a spontaneous house church movement as pilgrims returned from Jerusalem after Pentecost. There is no Biblical account of an apostolic foundation. In Romans 16, Paul greets twenty-six people by ...read more

  • The Apostolic Testimony

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,935 views

    The telling of the message: the imparting of a divine mystery.

    THE APOSTOLIC TESTIMONY. 2 Peter 1:16-18. Peter had a genuine pastoral concern for the purity of the church after his own death, literally his “exodus” (2 Peter 1:14-15). The Apostle wrote his second letter against a background of false teaching which denied the second coming of our Lord Jesus ...read more

  • The Foundational Authority Of Scripture

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,719 views

    We have the prophetic word fully confirmed in Jesus.

    THE FOUNDATIONAL AUTHORITY OF SCRIPTURE. 2 Peter 1:19-21. The church is built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone (Ephesians 2:20). At the back of Peter’s apostolic testimony to the transfiguration of our Lord (2 Peter 1:16-18) lies ...read more

  • Jesus Our Passover Lamb

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 27, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 8,213 views

    Contemplating the sufferings of Christ.

    JESUS, OUR PASSOVER LAMB. Isaiah 50:4-9a - Third Servant Song. Like the fourth Servant Song, Isaiah’s third Servant Song fits remarkably with some of the details of Jesus’ sufferings. Jesus did not shrink from His task (Isaiah 50:5). His attitude to the Father who commissioned Him was, “not my ...read more

  • Waiting For The News

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 27, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,802 views

    Salvation hope: comfort from God.

    WAITING FOR THE NEWS. Isaiah 52:7-10. We live in an age when people love to hear news. Perhaps it gives us a sense of community in this rapidly shrinking ‘global village’. It is something of a cliché amongst those of the news-gathering professions that ‘bad news is good news’ - but most ...read more
