  • The Contest On Mount Carmel

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 13, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,187 views

    Prevarication is not an option!

    THE CONTEST ON MOUNT CARMEL. 1 Kings 18:20-39. The prophet Elijah is nothing if not bold in his confrontation with King Ahab. The king accused Elijah of being “he that troubles Israel” (1 Kings 18:17). The prophet’s retort was rather to accuse Ahab and his family of troubling Israel, as they had ...read more

  • Stillness And The Power Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 13, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,182 views

    Swimming against the religious tide is a lonely business. Doubts may follow, but the LORD recalls us to duty.

    STILLNESS AND THE POWER OF GOD. 1 Kings 19:1-19. A. THE WILDERNESS OF DISSENT (1 Kings 19:1-8). It is hard when we stand out in the crowd, but Christians are different. The Bible names us a ‘peculiar people’ - called out of darkness into His marvellous light (1 Peter 2:9). Privileges carry ...read more

  • The Theft Of A Vineyard

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 13, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,339 views

    One man's brave stand against those who would rob him of his inheritance.

    THE THEFT OF A VINEYARD. 1 Kings 21:1-21. Some of us have had the privilege of living in a land where, on paper at least, there was no trespass law. Whether this was because ‘the land belongs to the LORD’ is doubtful - surely no land can share today in the special status of ancient Israel? Yet ...read more

  • Living The Life Of Christ

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 16, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,888 views

    Four imperatives for Christian living.

    LIVING THE LIFE OF CHRIST. Colossians 3:1-11. The doctrinal basis for the imperatives of this section is found in the fact that the ‘saints and faithful brethren’ (Colossians 1:2) have been “raised” with Christ. This connects with the symbols of baptism and new life in the previous chapter ...read more

  • The Woman At The Well

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 17, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 22,802 views

    How one woman's encounter with Jesus changed her whole community.

    THE WOMAN AT THE WELL. John 4:1-42. 1. THE OCCASION (John 4:1-4). Jesus had been preaching in Judea, and His ministry was proving to be even more successful than John the Baptist’s. The religious authorities were somewhat disturbed at the number of converts that the disciples of Jesus were ...read more

  • The Temptation Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 20, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,165 views

    Using the Word of God to defeat the devil.

    THE TEMPTATION OF JESUS. Matthew 4:1-11. The wilderness (Matthew 4:1). When God created man, He placed him in a garden (Genesis 2:15). The world when it was created resembled something more like a garden than it does today. God created all things ‘very good‘ (Genesis 1:31), but man’s collective ...read more

  • The Uniform Of The Day

    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,953 views

    Four more imperatives for right Christian living.

    THE UNIFORM OF THE DAY. Colossians 3:12-17. 1. This chapter has already furnished us with four imperatives: ‘seek those things which are above’ (Colossians 3:1); ‘set your affection on things above’ (Colossians 3:2); ‘put to death whatever in you is earthly’ (Colossians 3:5); and ‘put off’ ...read more

  • Good Beginnings, Midway Failures, Final Triumphs

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 21, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,952 views

    Looking beyond our failures, and stepping into the blessings.

    GOOD BEGINNINGS, MIDWAY FAILURES, FINAL TRIUMPHS. Hebrews 11:8-16. Sometimes when we look at our Christian walk and life all we can see are our failures. Healthy self-examination all too easily declines into unhealthy introspection. It is good to be reassured that God views us not as we see ...read more

  • Lost And Found

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 24, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,711 views

    Three parables carrying one message: the lost sheep; the lost coin; and the Prodigal son.

    LOST AND FOUND. Luke 15. ‘Horror of horrors!’ proclaimed the scribes and Pharisees. The tax-collectors and ‘sinners’ were drawing near to hear the words of Jesus! The three parables which follow in Luke 15 show the calm response of the Master. In fact, whilst there are three parables, the ...read more

  • The Hall Of Faith

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 27, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,309 views

    Running the race with the heroes of the faith, with our eyes fixed on Jesus.

    THE HALL OF FAITH. Hebrews 11:29-12:2. 1. In the earlier verses of Hebrews 11, the ‘Hall of Faith’ (as I have called it) spoke of faithful individuals, ranging from Abel through Abraham to Moses. Now we have a shift to the plural, emphasising the collective faith of all involved. “By faith THEY ...read more

  • Rebuilding The Temple

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 29, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,501 views

    Past glories, present disappointments, and future glory.

    REBUILDING THE TEMPLE. Haggai 2:9. BACKGROUND: King David wanted to build the LORD a house, but the time was not right (1 Chronicles 28:3): David's son would build the LORD's house (2 Samuel 7:12-13). Before his death, David appointed the masons, prepared iron and brass, received the ...read more

  • A Kingdom That Cannot Be Shaken

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 3, 2013
    based on 12 ratings
     | 8,109 views

    The contrast between Mount Sinai and Mount Zion: its inferences and implications in our life.

    A KINGDOM THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN. Hebrews 12:18-29. I. A BOOK OF CONTRASTS. The letter to the Hebrews is full of contrasts - too many to innumerate in a short space. Here the author shows the difference between the covenant at Sinai (Hebrews 12:18-21), and the covenant of Christianity (Hebrews ...read more

  • Our Part In The Refining Process

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 11, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,230 views

    This seemingly random selection of exhortations follows on from Hebrews 12:29, and represents our part in the refining process which God is working in our lives (cf. Ephesians 4:1).

    OUR PART IN THE REFINING PROCESS. Hebrews 13:1-8; Hebrews 13:15-16. I. PRACTICAL LOVE (Hebrews 13:1-3). 1. “Brotherly love” (Hebrews 13:1). Jesus is ‘not ashamed’ to call us brethren (Hebrews 2:11-12). The readers of Hebrews are viewed as ‘holy brethren’ (Hebrews 3:1). This section begins ...read more

  • Putting Jesus First

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 16, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,589 views

    Prioritising commitments, bearing the Cross, and counting the cost of discipleship.

    PUTTING JESUS FIRST. Luke 14:25-33. I. Prioritising commitments. Jesus, it has to be admitted, is a great orator. Seeing the crowds following Him, He turned (Luke 14:25), and spoke words that were designed to shock, and even offend His hearers. In a masterstroke of hyperbole, He took their ...read more

  • Testimony Of Paul

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 24, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,921 views

    It is God who gifts us with faith, and who equips us for the ministry He has given us. Ignorance is no excuse. If the chief of sinners can be saved, then so can I, and so can you. To God be the glory.

    PAUL’S TESTIMONY. 1 Timothy 1:12-17. Paul is ‘an Apostle of Jesus Christ according to the command of God our Saviour, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope’ (1 Timothy 1:1). I. THANKSGIVING. The Apostle gives thanks to the One who strengthened Him for this service, Christ Jesus our Lord. ...read more
