    Sardis: Socially Active But Spiritually Dead

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 3, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,739 views

    Sardis was the fifth church Jesus addressed in the Revelation. While the letter was shorter than the others, this one was the most severe. Apparently, Sardis has assimilated into the culture - with little difference known between the church and the world.

    Sardis: Socially Active but Spiritually Dead Revelation 3: 1-6 As we continue to examine the churches to whom John sent letters, we come to the fifth – the church at Sardis. Of the seven, the message to Sardis was the most severe. They were content to rely on prior works and a reputation from the ...read more

    Some Thoughts On The Lords Prayer

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 9, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,587 views

    A Corporate, Intimate, Reverent Prayer.

    SOME THOUGHTS ON THE LORD’S PRAYER. Matthew 6:7-15. In the expression, “When you (all) pray” (Matthew 6:7), Jesus assumes that His disciples (in all ages) WILL pray. A prayer-less Christian is like a man or a woman who does not speak to their nearest and dearest! Can you imagine it? ...read more

    Philadelphia: The Church With The Open Door

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 9, 2020
     | 6,302 views

    Like Smyrna, the Lord offered only encouragement for Philadelphia, with no rebuke. They were a people of little strength, and yet they held great potential. Christ promised to open doors no man could close. He reminded them of His preeminence and the security of their future.

    Philadelphia – The Church with the Open Door Revelation 3: 7-13 Philadelphia is the sixth church addressed by Jesus. Like Smyrna, Jesus offered no rebuke, only encouragement for their faithfulness and endurance in the midst of opposition. Jesus knew they were a people of “little strength,” and yet ...read more

    Raised From Death Unto Life

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 12, 2020
     | 3,127 views

    Peter knew the church faced much persecution in the first century. As they continued to endure adversity, he pointed them to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith. Persecution might continue, but they had been raised from death unto life in Christ.

    Raised from Death unto Life 1 Peter 4: 1-6 Peter set the tone for the message he sought to convey as he introduced himself to the reader. He addressed them as strangers scattered throughout the Roman provinces. This served two basic principles – 1) Peter revealed to the believers that he was aware ...read more

    Laodicea: Wealthy And Yet Bankrupt

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 16, 2020
     | 6,518 views

    The church in Laodicea enjoyed financial prosperity and the finer things in life. However, Jesus saw a church that had succumbed to complacence and apathy. They were wealthy, but facing spiritual bankruptcy.

    Laodicea – Wealthy and yet Bankrupt Revelation 3: 14-22 Today we come to the seventh and final church Jesus addressed in the book of Revelation. The church in Laodicea had been heavily influenced by the culture in which it was situated. The people there were very wealthy, creating an attitude of ...read more

    Seek Ye First

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,506 views

    Giving first place to the things of God.

    SEEK YE FIRST. Matthew 6:19-34. 1. Heart-Treasure. “Treasure not up for yourselves treasures upon earth,” begins Matthew 6:19. Moths destroy clothes (cf. Isaiah 51:8). Even gold and silver can become cankered (cf. James 5:2). Thieves can literally “dig through” mud-brick houses. No, ...read more

    Faithful Till The End

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 19, 2020
     | 11,648 views

    Peter makes a profound statement while writing to first century believers - the end of all things is at hand. He wanted the church to live and witness in light of anticipation of the Lord's soon return. Such an awareness would impact every aspect of Christian life.

    Faithful till the End 1 Peter 4: 7-11 Today is a day unlike any we’ve ever known. In the past few years, the world has seen drastic change. We are living in a day of difficulty and decision. The day when God was given His rightful place in the affairs of our nation has been replaced with lust, ...read more

    Judge Not

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 22, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,697 views

    Some thoughts on judgment and prayer, and the Golden Rule.

    JUDGE NOT. Matthew 7:1-12. When Jesus says, “Judge not” (Matthew 7:1), He is not bidding us suspend our faculty of discernment. If that was the case, then He would not have gone on to describe certain people as “dogs” or “swine” (Matthew 7:6)! How could we make that identification without ...read more

    Suffering For Righteousness

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 26, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,976 views

    Dealing with trials and adversity are a part of everyone's life - some more than others. We don't enjoy suffering, and yet the Word of God teaches us that we are to rejoice in them and even be happy as we suffer reproach. Peter explains this difficult doctrine in our text.

    Suffering for Righteousness 1 Peter 4: 12-16 Peter had spent considerable time in the preceding verses dealing with Christian character and conduct in the midst of a fallen world. He was well aware of the struggles and persecution many within the church faced. Although they were forced to deal ...read more

    Walking The Narrow Way

     | 4,192 views

    The two ways and their two gates, false teachers and true ministers.

    WALKING THE NARROW WAY. Matthew 7:13-23. The Sermon on the Mount is book-ended in these terms. ‘Seeing the MULTITUDES (Jesus) went up into a mountain: and when He was set, His DISCIPLES came unto Him’ (Matthew 5:1). ‘And when Jesus had ended these sayings, the PEOPLE were astonished at His ...read more

    Building On The Rock

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,340 views

    To build our lives on anything less than a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ is the very height of madness.

    BUILDING ON THE ROCK. Matthew 7:21-29. In the end, there will be those who PROFESS, “Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name, and in your name have cast out demons, and in your name done many wonderful works?” to whom Jesus will PROFESS, “I never knew you: depart from me, you (all) ...read more

    Honorable Duty Within The Church

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 11, 2020
     | 5,080 views

    As Peter sought to bring his first letter to a close, he addressed how we are live our Christian lives in regard to the church. By submitting to the will of God, following the spiritual guidance of church leadership, and serving one another, we bring glory to Christ and meet the needs of the church.

    Honorable Duty within the Church 1 Peter 5: 1-5 Peter had shared much with the church regarding their Christian lives among the world. They were challenged to build their lives upon Christ, the Corner Stone. Their lives were to be lived in light of their relationship with Christ, abiding faithful, ...read more

    Faith, Forgiveness And Healing

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 12, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,567 views

    Jesus' authority to forgive sins.

    FAITH, FORGIVENESS AND HEALING. Matthew 9:1-8. The place referred to as “His own city” (Matthew 9:1) appears to be Capernaum (cf. Mark 2:1). This is all the more tragic because of the ‘woe’ which Jesus would later pronounce against that city (Matthew 11:23-24). It would be a tragedy to have ...read more

     | 4,702 views

    Jesus calls sinners, heals the sick and raises the dead.

    THE CALL AND COMPASSION OF JESUS. Matthew 9:9-13; Matthew 9:18-26. 1. The Call of Matthew (Matthew 9:9-13) Wherever we live, under whatever regime, tax collectors are unpopular. It was no different in first century Israel, where Matthew’s trade involved collaboration with the Romans, and ...read more

    The Question Of Fasting

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,222 views

    A warning against mixing things that differ.

    THE QUESTION OF FASTING. Matthew 9:14-17. It is a strange thing that the disciples of John the Baptist came to Jesus to ask, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples do not fast?” (Matthew 9:14). It is unfortunately typical of religious people to be performing some ritual ...read more
