  • The Two Messengers

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 22, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,638 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
     | 10,178 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
     | 7,107 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
     | 6,973 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
     | 5,694 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
     | 10,092 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 Bow In The Sky: Starting Over

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 14, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,635 views

    The LORD God hangs His bow in the sky, like a warrior setting aside His weapons of destruction. It bodes well for us, even when we have been under His fatherly chastisement.

    A BOW IN THE SKY: STARTING OVER. Genesis 9:8-17. 1. The Rainbow. In the great Age of Exploration, travellers and missionaries were often amazed to find that differing cultures and civilisations - separated from one another since the scattering of mankind after the fall of the Tower of Babel ...read more

  • An Overview Of The Book Of Joel

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 15, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 15,331 views

    We cannot change the past: but in Christ, God restores to us what would have been had we not allowed sin an entrance (Joel 2:25).

    AN OVERVIEW OF THE BOOK OF JOEL. Joel 1-3. The name Joel means ‘Yahweh is God’ or perhaps ‘Whose God is the LORD’. There is no doubt that Joel's God is the LORD: not only on account of his given name, but also because of his courage in confronting Israel and the nations with a far-reaching ...read more

  • A Covenant For The Nations

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 21, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,006 views

    The covenant established with Abraham is not just about the land, or circumcision - but it is also about God's plan of redemption for the nations, via the cross of Jesus.

    A COVENANT FOR THE NATIONS. Genesis 17:1-7; Genesis 17:15-16. Abram was ninety-nine years old. Ishmael, his son by his wife’s slave girl Hagar, was thirteen. Now, after a long silence, the LORD spoke anew to Abram. When we try to work out God’s purposes on our own strength, as Abram and Sarai ...read more

  • An Answer To The Tyranny Of Self

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 27, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,973 views

    Be alert to the wiles of the devil. Be ready to deny self, and follow Jesus.

    AN ANSWER TO THE TYRANNY OF SELF. Mark 8:27-38. The first half of the Gospel of Mark tells of Jesus’ presentation to the people as an authoritative teacher who also happened to use healing (and exorcism) as a teaching device. In the second half the Lord started to prepare His inner circle of ...read more

  • A Word To The Wise

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 7, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,332 views

    The wisdom of the wise versus the foolishness of preaching.

    A WORD TO THE WISE. 1 Corinthians 1:18-25. The common consensus in the world of Paul’s day was that God exists. The Jews knew the identity of the true and living God from their past encounters with Him; but the Greeks were floundering about in the dark, seeking ways of access to God through the ...read more

  • A Scourge Of Small Cords

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 14, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,868 views

    The righteous indignation of Messiah at the desecration of the Court of the Gentiles.

    A SCOURGE OF SMALL CORDS. John 2:13-22. It was Passover, and the city of Jerusalem was packed with pilgrims who had gathered to commemorate Israel’s deliverance out of slavery in Egypt. Not only was it a solemn religious celebration, but also a great national statement that defied all who would ...read more

  • A Peaceful Triumph

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 22, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,756 views

    Every step of the way replete with Messianic undertones, the King enters His capital with meekness and humility.

    A PEACEFUL TRIUMPH. Mark 11:1-11. Another group of pilgrims was arriving in Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover, and those already there were shouting the traditional welcome: “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord” (Mark 11:9). The words are from Psalm 118:26 – a Psalm which is often ...read more

  • Around The Cross And At The Tomb

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 30, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,581 views

    Now is the time to proclaim the resurrection, to the ends of the earth.

    AROUND THE CROSS AND AT THE TOMB. Mark 15:40-47; Mark 16:1-8. There was a touching scene in Bethany, at the house of Simon the Leper, when an un-named woman broke open an alabaster box of precious ointment, and poured it over Jesus’ head. The living Lord Jesus recognised this beautiful ...read more

  • Advocacy And Fellowship

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 4, 2015
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,386 views

    The opening twelve verses of the first Epistle of John introduce us to three main themes: fellowship, sin, and propitiation.

    ADVOCACY AND FELLOWSHIP. 1 John 1:1-10; 1 John 2:1-2:2. The opening of the First Epistle of John is not unlike the famous Prologue of his Gospel (John 1:1-14). It too takes us back to “the beginning”, and introduces us to “the Word” - and it soon becomes clear that the Word is none other than ...read more
