  • The Growth Of The Saints

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 30, 2018
     | 8,500 views

    The Lord provides our salvation, but that does not absolve us from any responsibility. We are responsible for our growth and maturity, striving for Christ-likeness in this life.

    The Growth of the Saints 2 Peter 1: 5-8 Following his introduction and reminder of the glorious benefit of salvation, Peter immediately extended a challenge to the believers who would read this letter. While salvation is an act of God’s marvelous grace offered to those who are underserving, ...read more

  • The Redeeming Work Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 17, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,219 views

    One cannot examine the gracious provision of salvation apart from the finished work of Christ. Christ made the opportunity of salvation a reality through His atoning sacrifice and triumphant resurrection.

    The Redeeming work of God Ephesians 1: 7-10 Our text today deals with the present aspect of our salvation and the provision of Christ which secured salvation for humanity. One cannot examine the gracious provision of salvation apart from the finished work of Christ. The Father had a plan that ...read more

  • The Two Messengers

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 22, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,667 views

    Outward ceremony, shoddily performed, hardly compensates for a heart-not-right-with-God.

    THE TWO MESSENGERS. Malachi 3:1-4. The name Malachi means ‘My Messenger’ (see Malachi 1:1). The Book of Malachi is the response of the LORD to the Complaints of His people. Not that they were complaining directly To Him, as honest people might occasionally do (Job 21:7; Jeremiah 12:1). No, they ...read more

  • A Call To Rejoice

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 26, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,203 views

    This song of rejoicing is not only one in which the people of the LORD are exhorted to raise their voices, but also one in which the LORD Himself participates.

    A CALL TO REJOICE. Zephaniah 3:14-20. Eight out of the nine oracles in the little book of Zephaniah announce God’s just judgment of all the earth (Zephaniah 1:2-3; Zephaniah 3:8); and the just judgment of the LORD their covenant God against Judah and Jerusalem in particular (Zephaniah 1:4). ...read more

  • Awaiting The King

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 27, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,130 views

    The Day of the LORD may be fearsome to some people, but not to all people.

    AWAITING THE KING. Luke 21:25-36. This chapter contains Luke’s version of Jesus’ temple teaching about the future. The teaching consists of Jesus’ answer to a question posed by the disciples (Luke 21:7). The first part of His discourse (Luke 21:8-24) dealt with the fall of Jerusalem which would ...read more

  • A Remarkable Sign

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2015
    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,990 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

  • The Two Lords

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 3, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,714 views

    David foresees a future in which the LORD stretches out the sceptre of Jesus from Mount Zion.

    THE TWO LORDS. Psalm 110. The first thing that strikes us about this passage is the superscription: “A Psalm of David.” The Davidic authorship of this Psalm was taken for granted by all parties in the days of Jesus and the Apostles. Jesus goes so far as to say that David spoke these words ‘by ...read more

  • A King Born

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 13, 2015
    based on 8 ratings
     | 10,145 views

    Seek, worship and rejoice in Jesus.

    A KING BORN. Matthew 2:1-12. It is unusual for somebody to be born already possessing the title of “King” – but this was the case with Jesus. Matthew’s report simply states that Jesus was born in Bethlehem (Matthew 2:1): but he quotes the identity of Jesus as “born King” from the lips of the ...read more

  • A Heart For God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 30, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 13,680 views

    Psalm 19 has been called the most majestic of David’s Psalms. It falls into two main sections dealing respectively with Creation and Covenant, with an application to follow. These seemingly distinct parts form one unified, progressive whole.

    A HEART FOR GOD. Psalm 19. In July 1994, Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 (formerly D/1993 F2) broke apart and collided with the far side of Jupiter. On that occasion I preached on “The heavens declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1), and wondered at the perfection of God’s creation. God placed the earth ...read more

  • A Messianic Agenda

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 2, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,363 views

    The Spirit anointed the speaker "to announce glad tidings: to heal the broken in heart; to proclaim deliverance to the captives, and the recovery of sight to the blind; to send forth the crushed in deliverance; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.

    A MESSIANIC AGENDA. Luke 4:14-21. Always a methodical writer (Luke 1:3), Luke has grouped together reports of three manifestations of the Spirit’s work in Jesus’ life. The first is the descent of the Holy Spirit upon Jesus at His baptism, that wonderful moment of Trinitarian confirmation of ...read more

  • A Common Call

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 9, 2016
    based on 11 ratings
     | 7,817 views

    The LORD knew His plans for Jeremiah, and had a particular end in view (Jeremiah 29:11). The same is true for us: both as Christian individuals, and as Church.

    A COMMON CALL. Jeremiah 1:4-10. Throughout history both the Church in general, and churches in particular, have published books of Common Order, Common Worship, and Common Prayer; common lectionaries, common liturgies, and joint statements of faith and mission. This is not necessarily a bad ...read more

  • A Reflected Glory

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 16, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,910 views

    What is amazing, as Moses came down from the mountain, is that he was unaware that his face was, literally, sending out horns of light (Exodus 34:29).

    A REFLECTED GLORY. Exodus 34:29-35. In discussing the nature of the resurrection body, the Apostle Paul comments, ‘There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon’ (1 Corinthians 15:41). In the Epistle to the Hebrews, we read that Christ Jesus is ‘worthy of more glory than Moses’ ...read more

  • A Second Chance For The Human Race

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 22, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,035 views

    Adam, son of God, failed in the Garden. Israel, son of God, rebelled in the wilderness. Jesus the Son of God, on behalf of us all, won the battle against temptation in the wilderness. Believers in Jesus are also called sons of God, so how must we live?

    A SECOND CHANCE FOR THE HUMAN RACE. Luke 4:1-13. Man was always going to get a second chance after the Fall of Adam. God made a promise concerning the seed of the woman (Genesis 3:15), and ‘that seed was Christ’ (cf. Galatians 3:16; Galatians 3:29). We see in the temptation of Jesus a new Adam ...read more
