    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 25, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,699 views

    The pressure of the crowd must never be allowed to take precedence over a right relationship with God.

    THIS IS WHAT I CAME TO DO. Mark 1:29-39. 1. The first Deacon (Mark 1:29-31). After the synagogue service in Capernaum, Jesus and His four companions went to the home of Simon and Andrew (Mark 1:29).

    It is in the very nature of a forgiving God to - well, forgive!

    HEALING THE LEPROSY OF SIN. Mark 1:40-45. 1. The leper The various skin diseases which fall under the Biblical heading of ‘leprosy’ have long stood as a metaphor for that worst of all human diseases: sin. However, this does not detract from the historicity of the incident which Mark now sets ...read more

    Is it lawful to good on the sabbath days?

    A SABBATH FOR THE HUNGRY, HEALING FOR THE WITHERED. Mark 2:23-3:6. Jesus said, ‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled’ (Matthew 5:6). The hunger and thirst which He spoke of in that Beatitude is evidently spiritual, but it is amply illustrated in ...read more

    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
     | 15,337 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

    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

    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,976 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
     | 8,333 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.

    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

    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,759 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

    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.

  • Advocacy And Fellowship

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 4, 2015
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,387 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

When ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,098 views

    A two-pronged, present-continuous, commandment to love - set in its original context.

    A SINGLE COMMANDMENT. 1 John 3:16-24. “This is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another” (1 John 3:23). Before we look at the two prongs of this single commandment, we need to set the verse within its immediate context. The ones who ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,510 views

    Maintaining an attitude of praise in the midst of affliction: Jesus' example.

    A PARADIGM OF PRAISE. Psalm 22:23-31. The details of the sufferings in Psalm 22:1-21 match more exactly the anguish of Jesus than anything that we can find in any of the written records of David’s life - and because of this the church has always read this Psalm of David as a Psalm of Jesus. In ...read more
