  • All Is Well

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 5, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,992 views

    Our common faith was expressed so aptly in the words of Dame Julian of Norwich - but these words were anticipated and exceeded by far by another great woman in today's Scripture passage.

    ALL IS WELL. 2 Kings 4:18-26. In England’s original ‘second City’ - Norwich - there is a little church named after an all-but-forgotten Saint Julian, where worship is still conducted to this very day. Yet the church is not remembered for its patron, but for a certain 14th century recluse who ...read more

  • Trouble At A Place Of Revelation

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 19, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,663 views

    The enemy of our souls tries to snatch away the words of our confessions of faith while they are still in our mouths, robbing us of our newly received blessing.

    TROUBLE AT A PLACE OF REVELATION. Matthew 16:21-28. The place was Caesarea Philippi (Matthew 16:13): a place of revelation, and a place of decision. Which of two realms will we choose? Which of two religions? Who is it that we are following? Jesus asked the disciples, ‘Whom say ye that I am?’ ...read more

  • Regaining The Straying Brother

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 26, 2014
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,502 views

    Church discipline is about regaining the brother (15). When our prayer is, truly, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven - our desire will be in agreement with what God has already determined in heaven.

    REGAINING THE STRAYING BROTHER. Matthew 18:15-20. ‘The Son of man is come to save that which was lost,’ declared Jesus (Matthew 18:11). The Lord illustrated this with a story of a man who left his ninety-nine sheep to seek out just one lost sheep (Matthew 18:12-13). Jesus affirmed, ‘Even so, it ...read more

  • A Call To Unlimited Forgiveness

    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,219 views

    The full extent of the law, versus the full extent of grace.

    A CALL TO UNLIMITED FORGIVENESS. Matthew 18:21-35. Peter’s question, “How many times shall I forgive my brother?” (MATTHEW 18:21) arises out of the context of church discipline (cf. Matthew 18:15-20). Perhaps the original grievance was resolved, between one brother and another. The brother was ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 16,120 views

    An illustration of God's new order of things.

    THE LABOURERS IN THE VINEYARD. Matthew 20:1-16. This parable is part of Jesus’ response to Peter’s question: ‘Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?’ (cf. Matthew 19:27). This challenging part of the reply is framed with a formula concerning the ‘first’ ...read more

  • A Test Of Obedience

    based on 11 ratings
     | 9,285 views

    The rhythms of deliverance, discontentment, provision, testing, disobedience, & deliverance; and daily bread, daily work, Sabbath, & commemoration.

    A TEST OF OBEDIENCE. Exodus 16:2-4; Exodus 16:9-15. In this passage, we join the children of Israel just six weeks into their wilderness journey. The ten plagues, the first Passover, the deliverance out of Egypt, and the parting of the Red Sea all lay behind them. Yet now, here in the ...read more

  • A Wise Use Of Time

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 18, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,010 views

    Three negatives negated, and three positives endorsed. Redeeming the time. The Holy Spirit and the word of Christ. An exhortation to praise and thanksgiving.

    A WISE USE OF TIME. Ephesians 5:15-20. Despite popular opinion, the Christian “life” or Christian “walk” is not a style of living or a level of morality that we must first attain before we can ever be recognised as true Christians. On the contrary, the Christian “walk” or the Christian “life” ...read more

  • A Spiritual Armoury

    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,185 views

    Making our stand on the word, and prayerfully advancing in evangelism.

    A SPIRITUAL ARMOURY. Ephesians 6:10-20. “Go on being made strong,” begins the final exhortation of this Epistle. Having been made strong in the past by relying on the Lord, so make your stand now “in the power of His might” (Ephesians 6:10). Do not yield one inch: do not ‘give place to the ...read more

  • A Final Personification Of Wisdom

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 15, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,325 views

    Wisdom is compared to the virtuous woman in this closing poem of the book of Proverbs: the very personification of Christ, and of all that we all should be in Him.

    A FINAL PERSONIFICATION OF WISDOM. Proverbs 31:10-31. The book of Proverbs closes with an acrostic poem which commends the virtues of a certain (literally) “strong woman” (Proverbs 31:10). If we have been reading through the book up to this point, we will find that we have met her already. This ...read more

  • A Call To Worship

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 23, 2015
    based on 8 ratings
     | 12,880 views

    Who is this LORD, that we should worship Him? Why should we trust and praise this God?

    A CALL TO WORSHIP. Psalm 146. The last five Psalms (146-150) all begin and end with an exhortation to praise the LORD, addressed collectively to the congregation of God’s people. Yet it is not enough for the praise leader just to call others to worship: it is also the exercise of his own soul ...read more

  • A Feast To Remember: Book Of Esther

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 29, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,182 views

    An intended genocide against the people of God is thwarted. Behind all the machinations of human deliverers, we see the quiet unassuming hand of providence. Praise the LORD!

    A FEAST TO REMEMBER. Esther 7:1-6; Esther 7:9-10; Esther 9:20-22. Esther is a book of feasts. First there was the extravagance of a six-month long drinking feast for the army and the princes of the 127 provinces (Esther 1:3-4). This was immediately followed by a seven day drinking feast for the ...read more

    Models of high priesthood. Comparison and Contrast.

    AARON AND JESUS. Hebrews 5:1-10. Every high priest taken from among men was set aside, and was ordained to serve God in the offering of both gifts and sacrifices for sins, for and on behalf of men (Hebrews 5:1). The task was not taken on presumptuously, but was only made possible through the ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,824 views

    The restoration of Job.

    A NEW VISION OF GOD. Job 42:1-6. The prose narrative bookends of the epic poem which is the Book of Job provide us at either end with the same judgment of Job’s character. Twice in the first two chapters the LORD taunts Satan with the integrity of Job (Job 1:8; Job 2:3). Twice Satan questions ...read more

  • An Infinitely Superior High Priest

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 27, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,609 views

    In an argument from the lesser to the greater, this chapter commences with a demonstration of the limitations of the access to God allowed in the annual Day of Atonement. All this anticipates the comparison: But Christ…

    AN INFINITELY SUPERIOR HIGH PRIEST. Hebrews 9:11-14. This short passage is the high point of the writer’s comparison between the old covenant and the new. In an argument from the lesser to the greater, the chapter commences with a demonstration of the limitations of the access to God allowed ...read more

  • A Harvest Of Joy

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 13, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 15,606 views

    Stand amazed at the infinite mercy of God!

    A HARVEST OF JOY. Psalm 126. The common heading within this group of fifteen Psalms (Psalms 120-134) is “A Song of degrees” - a reference, some believe, to the miracle of the sun going back by ten degrees as a pledge to King Hezekiah that the LORD would extend his life by fifteen years (Isaiah ...read more
