     | 14,156 views

    Jesus was lifted up in the crucifixion so that everyone who trusts in Him would have eternal life. This was, and is, the supreme act of God’s love.

    THE GIFT OF GOD’S LOVE. John 3:14-21. The LORD God made heaven and earth, and all that is in them. He gives morning and evening, seedtime and harvest. In Him we live, and move, and have our being. The LORD God says of Himself: ‘I am the LORD, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me’ ...read more

    The symbolism of the serpent on the pole, and the awful reality of the Man upon the Cross.

    A SERPENT ON A POLE, AND A MAN ON A CROSS. Numbers 21:4-9. Much of the books of Exodus and Numbers tells the sad history of a people who for forty years - whilst being delivered, led, and provided for by God - made a profession of complaining. The turning point came when a pole was raised up in ...read more

    The Temple of the LORD and the dynasty of David.

    HIS PLANS, NOT OUR PLANS. 2 Samuel 7:1-16. (The title of this Sermon is based upon Isaiah 55:8-9.) There are three main thrusts in our reading in 2 Samuel today: 1. There is a subtle difference between a good idea and God’s will (2 Samuel 7:1-4); 2. God’s presence cannot be contained in a ...read more

    The curse on Jericho, and the consequence of rebuilding.

    REBUILDING JERICHO. 1 Kings 16:34.

    Passing on the mantle: issues of succession in the church.

    THE ASCENSION OF ELIJAH. 2 Kings 2:1-12. I. ASCENSION The taking up of Elijah by the LORD prefigures the ascension of the Lord Jesus, and anticipates our own meeting with Jesus in the air. 1.

    Seasoned with the salt of the Word.

    THE HEALING OF JERICHO. 2 Kings 2:19-22. We may at some time have given up all to follow Jesus, but occasionally we need to reflect upon just what that involves, and where we stand in relationship to our earlier commitments. There are times, and not just times of crisis, when we need to get back ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,663 views

    It is to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ that we must turn in a time of trouble, and not to our own ability or the abilities of others.

    THE POWER OF PRAYER. 2 Chronicles 15. 1. THE EARLY CAREER OF ASA The beginning of the reign of King Asa of Judah was marked by ten years of peace and quiet in the land, and Asa seeking to do what was good and right in keeping with the teaching of the LORD. Asa removed the altars and images of ...read more

This is illustrated in the spontaneity of the crowd gathered for festival at the Water Gate in ...read more

  • Pursuing The Mark

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 20, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,408 views

    Paul the persecutor was turned into Paul the pursuer. The Christian life is not static, but vigorously active.

    PURSUING THE MARK. Philippians 3:4-14. The starter’s line for this passage is the Apostle Paul’s polemic against false teachers, whose confidence lies in the flesh (Philippians 3:2-4). “The flesh” here represents self-help religion, which stands contrary to the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. ...read more

  • Growing Towards The Day

    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,666 views

    He who has begun a good work in you will continue working at it, and will be bringing it to completion until the day of Jesus Christ.

    GROWING TOWARDS THE DAY. Philippians 1:3-11. Like all good projects, it all began with a vision. The Apostle Paul and his party had been “forbidden by the Holy Ghost” to preach the word in Asia, then tried to go into Bithynia “but the Spirit suffered them not.” Then a man of Macedonia appeared ...read more

    REJOICE IN THE LORD - ALWAYS! Philippians 4:4-7. It was midnight, and in a certain prison in Philippi, the Apostle Paul and his missionary companion Silas had been left to languish in chains in a dark dungeon. However, if we were to listen in at the door we would not hear the moans and groans ...read more

    Paul's answer to Gnostic tendencies in the Church.

    THE KNOWLEDGE WE HAVE. Colossians 1:1-14. The Apostle Paul was in prison (Colossians 4:10; Colossians 4:18), probably in Rome.

    The Lordship of Jesus, the sufficiency of His Person, and the adequacy of His work; and its implications in our lives.

    THE CHRIST HYMN. Colossians 1:15-29. Paul emphasises the deliverance which Jesus wrought on our behalf (Colossians 1:13), and the fullness of what He has accomplished on the Cross (Colossians 2:10). In Him we have “redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins” (Colossians 1:14). I. ...read more

    An exhortation and three warnings frame what might be another Christ hymn.

    YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM. Colossians 2:6-19. I. The Apostle Paul is concerned that the Colossians should not be “beguiled with enticing words” - or “deluded with beguiling speech” (Colossians 2:4). Our enemy is subtle as a serpent, and would lure away even ‘the very elect, if that were possible’ ...read more
