    Darkness And Light

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,146 views

    We must be careful whose image we reflect in our lives.

    DARKNESS AND LIGHT. 2 Corinthians 4:3-6. The Apostle Paul likens the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to a perfume, which to some people - “the saved” (2 Corinthians 2:15-16) - is a source of sweetness, light and life. To others - “the lost” (2 Corinthians 4:3) - it is the poignant poisonous ...read more

    The Ministry Of Reconciliation

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,203 views

    The need for reconciliation arises because of our estrangement from God on account of our sin. The mediator of reconciliation is God. The cost of reconciliation is the death of Christ. The result of reconciliation is a new relationship with God.

    THE MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION. 2 Corinthians 5:16-21. This passage directly confronts us with the subject of reconciliation. It requires spiritual thinking: no longer regarding people from a worldly point of view - “according to the flesh” - and certainly not regarding Christ from a worldly ...read more

    Isaac And Ishmael

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,069 views

    When faith fails, then flesh takes over.

    ISAAC AND ISHMAEL. Galatians 4:21-31. 1. The History. The history of Ishmael and Isaac is the history of the struggle between flesh and spirit, between the carnal seed and the spiritual seed, between the world's way and God's way. In the first place, Abraham had faith. The LORD ...read more

    Breaking Down The Walls

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,565 views

    Church, in the final analysis, defines a people who are in the world but not of the world - ministering to the world.

    BREAKING DOWN THE WALLS. Ephesians 2:11-22. Church. A building or a people? Churches. Buildings constructed over supposed holy sites, in which various forms of worship take place. Some of these original citadels have disappeared, their walls removed to build alternative edifices. The problem ...read more

    Knowing The Unknowable.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,701 views

    The Cross-shaped love of Christ.

    KNOWING THE UNKNOWABLE. Ephesians 3:14-21. The “For this reason” of Ephesians 3:14 echoes Ephesians 3:1, and picks up the thread of thought that was left there. This follows Paul’s contemplation of the reconciliation accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:11-22). Jesus, by His own ...read more

    The Once And Future Salvation

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,332 views

    How can we thank God enough?

    THE ONCE AND FUTURE SALVATION. 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13. The Apostle Paul had at last heard a longed-for report of the Thessalonians’ faith, and love, and devotion (1 Thessalonians 3:6). Timothy’s good news (the word is - literally - “evangel” = gospel) was of such moment that it was a source of ...read more

    The Return Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 10,237 views

    Comfort for the bereaved.

    THE RETURN OF JESUS. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. Jesus taught that the “day and hour” of His return is known only to His Father (Mark 13:32). However, the new believers in Thessalonica seem to have got the impression that His Coming was imminent. As a result of this misunderstanding, a question ...read more

    A Complete Way Of Life.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,839 views

    Being a Christian is not defined by what we do, or what we do not do; but by who we are, and Whose we are.

    A COMPLETE WAY OF LIFE. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24. Many people labour under the misapprehension that Christianity is negative, emphasising the prohibitions of the Ten Commandments. Yet even the Decalogue has positive commands: “Remember the Sabbath day”; “Honour your father and mother” - along ...read more

    The Order Of Melchisedec

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 9 ratings
     | 5,336 views

    Although the Aaronic priesthood was God-ordained, it was temporary, and must give way to the new and better priesthood by which we may all make our approaches to God.

    THE ORDER OF MELCHISEDEC. Hebrews 7:1-19. The New Testament is replete with surprising interpretations of Old Testament passages. We need go no further than the first Gospel to see this illustrated (Matthew 1:22-23; Matthew 2:15; Matthew 2:17-18; Matthew 2:23 etc). The Book of Hebrews, towards ...read more

    A Hymn To Our High Priest

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,498 views

    He is our eternal Advocate, always available, always approachable.

    A HYMN TO OUR HIGH PRIEST. Hebrews 7:23-28. Jesus’ priesthood is proclaimed to be of a better order than that of Aaron (Hebrews 7:11) because of His similitude to Melchisedec (Hebrews 7:14-15). It is not genealogy which qualifies our great High Priest, but the power of an indissoluble life ...read more

    Waiting For God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 30, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,353 views

    We know from whence our help comes...

    WAITING FOR GOD. Psalm 40:1-11. “Waiting I waited” (Psalm 40:1) begins the Hebrew of this familiar and much loved Psalm. This gives rise to the Latin title, itself a dynamic equivalent, which translates “Expectantly I expected.” This appears to be not so much anxious hope, as some have ...read more

    Pure Religion: Doing God's Word

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,256 views

    It is amazing how much the Bible has to say about the Poor.

    PURE RELIGION: DOING GOD’S WORD. James 1:22; James 1:27. A. James 1:22 - “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” 1. Be careful how you hear. Jesus says: ‘Who hath ears to hear, let him hear’ (Matthew 13:9). 2. But it is not enough only to hear. The ...read more

    Rich And Poor In The Church Of Jesus Christ

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,561 views

    There are no 'untouchables' with God!

    RICH AND POOR IN THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST. James 2:1-17. James 2:1. The Greek of this section of the letter of James begins somewhat abruptly: “My brethren, not with partialities!” The impact of the whole sentence is: “Do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ with respect of persons.” ...read more

    Faith And Works

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,426 views

    The practical faith of Rahab stands in contrast to the platitudes of the person who sent the hungry empty away, and failed to clothe the naked.

    FAITH AND WORKS. James 2:14-26. A person is making what seems to be a credible claim to “faith” - but (as yet) there is no evidence in their lives of their allegiance to Jesus Christ. They seem to have all the right words, but (so far) “works” are lacking. James 2:14. What is the profit in the ...read more

    Bridling The Tongue

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,896 views

    The same tongue which responds to God’s manifest glories by blessing His holy name also denigrates the poor - the widow, the orphan, and the resident alien - who, like us, are made in His image.

    BRIDLING THE TONGUE. James 3:1-12. “If anyone thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is vain” (James 1:26). James 3:1. James begins his elucidation of this text with a warning against seeking pre-eminence amongst the brethren. This ...read more
