    Nineveh

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 29, 2013
    based on 13 ratings
     | 7,573 views

    The LORD is merciful to those who repent.

    NINEVEH. Jonah 3. The LORD has a case against cities and nations which are full of wickedness (Jonah 1:2) It was not God who brought evil upon mankind, but man himself. No doubt man was created with free will, but he chose to disobey God. From that point on man's will remains free, but only ...read more

    Bringing food to a hungry world.

    THE FEEDING OF THE 5000. Matthew 14:13-21. 1. The creativity of feeding over 5000 hungry mouths. The feeding of the 5000 is recorded in all four Gospels.

     | 15,325 views

    Faith is renewed day by day in our experience of the storms of life.

    THE STORMS OF LIFE. Matthew 14:22-33. 1. The storms of life. Sometimes the storms of life seem to overtake us, even when we are being obedient. Jesus told the disciples to get into a ship and go to the other side of the lake (Matthew 14:22), but we see the ship in the midst of the sea tossed ...read more

    O Magnify The Lord With Me

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 26, 2013
    based on 11 ratings
     | 18,765 views

    We taste and see the goodness of the LORD when the words of the LORD have their rightful place in our lives.

    O MAGNIFY THE LORD WITH ME. Psalm 34:1-8. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul. Mistakenly thinking that he might find refuge with the Philistines, he only escaped from their clutches by feigning madness (1 Samuel 21:10-15). Then he hid in a cave. Knowing that David was in this place, his ...read more

    The Resurrection Life

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 26, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,755 views

    The key to Christian living is found in our union with Christ, both in His death and in His resurrection.

    THE RESURRECTION LIFE. Romans 6:1-14. It is decidedly unpleasant when anybody is subjected to false accusations and malicious rumours. Yet this was the experience of Jesus in Holy Week, and is the common lot of all those who uphold the mystery of holiness. The Apostle Paul was aware that ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,546 views

    He is our eternal Advocate, always available, always approachable.

    A HYMN TO OUR HIGH PRIEST. Hebrews 7:23-28. Jesus’ priesthood is proclaimed to be of a better order than that of Aaron (Hebrews 7:11) because of His similitude to Melchisedec (Hebrews 7:14-15). It is not genealogy which qualifies our great High Priest, but the power of an indissoluble life ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,307 views

    It is amazing how much the Bible has to say about the Poor.

    PURE RELIGION: DOING GOD’S WORD. James 1:22; James 1:27. A. James 1:22 - “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” 1. Be careful how you hear. Jesus says: ‘Who hath ears to hear, let him hear’ (Matthew 13:9). 2. But it is not enough only to hear. The ...read more

    Christian Wisdom

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,930 views

    Worldly wisdom versus the 'wisdom from on high.'

    CHRISTIAN WISDOM. James 3:13-4:3; James 4:7-8. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God” (James 1:5) James has used an illustration of two sources in his discussion of the divisiveness of the tongue (James 3:10-12). Now he wants to get to the heart of the matter. It is not, after all, ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 13,282 views

    We are used to living our lives according to deadlines, but are you prepared to meet the mother of all deadlines that Jesus describes in the Gospel here for us today; the parable of the wise and foolish virgins? Read on, and be surprised.

    Joshua 24:1-3a, 14-25 Psalm 78:1-7 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Matthew 25:1-13 Prayer: In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, let these words speak for you, bless each and every one of us Father, in the name of Jesus, Amen. Summary: We are used to living our lives ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,674 views

    Staking a claim in the land of Canaan.

    THE CALL OF ABRAHAM. Genesis 12:1-9. Our history begins in Ur of the Chaldees, in what is now Southern Iraq, a predominantly pagan city of about 250,000 people, with a central temple to the moon god Sin. Here Abram’s father Terah was thought to have been a craftsman within the moon cult. At a ...read more

    The Lord Our Shield

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 10, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,014 views

    Abraham chose to believe God rather than his own doubts and fears.

    THE LORD OUR SHIELD. Genesis 15:1-6. After the battle of the kings, Abram no doubt would have had a rush of emotion. First of all, perhaps, elation: look what God has enabled me to do with a small household army (Genesis 14:14-16). Secondly, a sudden realisation: I’ve just picked a fight with ...read more

    A Garland Of Righteousness

    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,638 views

    I have finished the course, declares Paul to Timothy. You run your course as I have run mine. This applies not only to Timothy, but to every one of us.

    A GARLAND OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. 2 Timothy 4:6-8; 2 Timothy 4:16-18. Against a background of false teachers, and hypocritical hearers who will not endure sound teaching, Paul exhorted Timothy to urgently preach the word (2 Timothy 4:2). The young minister was to do this both when it seemed ...read more

    His Plans Not Our Plans

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 19, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 16,589 views

    The Temple of the LORD and the dynasty of David.

    HIS PLANS, NOT OUR PLANS. 2 Samuel 7:1-16. (The title of this Sermon is based upon Isaiah 55:8-9.) There are three main thrusts in our reading in 2 Samuel today: 1. There is a subtle difference between a good idea and God’s will (2 Samuel 7:1-4); 2. God’s presence cannot be contained in a ...read more

    The Question Of The Authority Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 15, 2014
    based on 8 ratings
     | 10,656 views

    Who is Jesus? Who is Jesus to us? The difference between words and action. Time for true repentance, and amendment of life.

    THE QUESTION OF JESUS’ AUTHORITY. Matthew 21:23-32. This conversation follows hard on the heels of Jesus’ cleansing of the Temple (Matthew 21:12-16), and the symbolic withering of the fig tree (Matthew 21:18-20). “Who gave you the right to do such things?” demanded the Temple authorities, and ...read more

    A Prayerful Advocate For Those Who Groan

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 9, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,713 views

    The Holy Spirit as first-fruits, and efficacious intercessor.

    A PRAYERFUL ADVOCATE FOR THOSE WHO GROAN. Romans 8:22-27. There are several references to the Holy Spirit in Romans 8. He is named at least nineteen times in the first twenty-seven verses. This serves to contrast the weakness of ‘the law of sin and death’ (discussed at length in Romans 7), with ...read more
