    The Return Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 10,238 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
     | 11,354 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
     | 7,260 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
     | 6,427 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
     | 8,898 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

    Christian Wisdom

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,896 views

    Worldly wisdom versus the 'wisdom from on high.'

    CHRISTIAN WISDOM. James 3:13-4:3; James 4:7-8. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God” (James 1:5) James has used an illustration of two sources in his discussion of the divisiveness of the tongue (James 3:10-12). Now he wants to get to the heart of the matter. It is not, after all, ...read more

    Caring Prayer And Praying Care

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,271 views

    Holistic Healing within the Church.

    CARING PRAYER AND PRAYING CARE. James 5:13-20. In the previous verses (James 5:7-12), James exhorted us to patience. The writer mentioned the sufferings of the prophets as an example of endurance (James 5:10). However, patience need not be passive: it will also see us engaged in prayer. AN ...read more

    Use Of The Word Precious By Peter

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,749 views

    What does the Bible teach about faith? What makes the Blood so special? The Church is built upon this Rock, and the Scriptures furnish us with many promises.

    PETER’S USE OF THE WORD “PRECIOUS”. The word "precious" conveys: something of great value; something greatly loved or treasured by someone. PRECIOUS FAITH. 1 Peter 1:7; 2 Peter 1:1. The Apostle Peter speaks of “precious faith” (1 Peter 1:7; 2 Peter 1:1). What does the Bible teach ...read more

    Resurrection Hope

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,793 views

    It is into this lively living hope that Christians are begotten again.

    RESURRECTION HOPE. 1 Peter 1:3. What significance has what happened in Jerusalem nearly 2,000 years ago got for us today? We feel the reverberations of current world events as reported by the media, but the impact of the resurrection of Jesus Christ reaches not only across the miles, but ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 9,536 views

    Addressing a present distress.

    FAITH IN THE MIDST OF TRIALS. 1 Peter 1:3-9. It is no mistake that the first letter of the Apostle Peter is prominent in liturgical calendars in the season immediately following Easter. Those churches and Christian communities who use the book as a kind of catechism for new converts certainly ...read more

    Reverent Brethren, Redeemed Pilgrims

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,963 views

    This world is not our home. We are transients, travellers passing through to a better place.

    REVERENT BRETHREN, REDEEMED PILGRIMS. 1 Peter 1:17-23. Christians are like transient travellers passing through a foreign land. Abraham was a sojourner in Canaan, but was never a Canaanite. Israel dwelt in Egypt, but lived separately from the Egyptians. We are in the world, yet not of the world ...read more
