  • The Neighbourly Kindness Of The Hated Samaritan

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 6, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,243 views

    Jesus sees us in our plight, naked and left for dead by the ravishes of sin in our lives. He picks us up, binds us, anoints us, and takes us to a place of safety.

    THE NEIGHBOURLY KINDNESS OF THE HATED SAMARITAN. Luke 10:25-37. This well-known parable is best understood within the framework of the question-and-answer narrative between “a certain lawyer” (an expert in the Scripture), and Jesus (Luke 10:25). The motives of the would-be student may well be ...read more

  • The Life That I Live

    Justification. By law, or by Jesus Christ?

    THE LIFE THAT I LIVE. Galatians 2:15-21. After giving his biographical testimony (Galatians 1:13-24; Galatians 2:1-10), including an account of his brief contention with Peter (Galatians 2:11-14), Paul appears now to particularly address the Jewish Christians in Galatia: especially the ...read more

  • The Dew Of Hermon

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 10, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,440 views

    The knitting together of kindred hearts in covenant love.

    THE DEW OF HERMON. Psalm 133:1-3. I like the Scottish Metrical version of this Psalm: “Behold, how good a thing it is, and how becoming well, Together such as brethren are in unity to dwell!” A good one to sing, perhaps, as we break bread together. “Behold” calls us to look carefully, ...read more

  • Mustard Seed Faith

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 30, 2016
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,512 views

    Faith is a great force, a power to be reckoned with.

    MUSTARD SEED FAITH. Luke 17:5-10. “Lord, increase our faith” (Luke 17:5). In Luke’s Gospel, this request arises out of one of the hard sayings of Jesus. For flesh and blood to ‘keep on forgiving seven times a day’ (Luke 17:4) seemed quite impossible to the disciples! Jesus’ answer is not to ...read more

  • A Shoot From The Root

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 29, 2016
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,736 views

    The peaceable Kingdom.

    A SHOOT FROM THE ROOT. Isaiah 11:1-10. The reference to “the stem of Jesse” (Isaiah 11:1) sends us back to the origins of Messiah’s dynasty. Not just to David: but to his father, Jesse. David was the youngest son of Jesse, and probably the last person anybody expected to be anointed king (1 ...read more

  • A Happy Homecoming

    A place for the redeemed to walk free.

    A HAPPY HOMECOMING. Isaiah 35:1-10. Isaiah foresees a time ahead of time, when Israel would again be released from captivity, and would undertake another journey through the wilderness. Unlike when they left Egypt, on this occasion they would not be left wandering for forty years, but would make ...read more

  • Blessing The One Who Blesses Us With Blessings.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,220 views

    Chosen to be holy.

    BLESSING THE ONE WHO BLESSES US WITH BLESSINGS. Ephesians 1:3-14. In their original language, these verses constitute the longest sentence in the whole Bible. They form one long celebration of the Blessed One, who blesses us with blessings (Ephesians 1:3). The blessings begin with Him, bring ...read more

  • Praise And Repentance (Complete)

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 3, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,106 views

    A Summons to resounding praise. Even now, God is waiting to forgive.

    1. A SOLEMN FEAST DAY. Psalm 81:1-7. This Psalm opens with a summons to resounding praise (Psalm 81:1-3), with reasons to do so attached (Psalm 81:4-7). It continues with an address by God, beginning with a commandment, with a promise attached (Psalm 81:8-10); and going on to upbraid the ...read more

  • A Marriage Feast For A Royal Son

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 25, 2014
    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,564 views

    The balance between royal invitation, and choice.

    A MARRIAGE FEAST FOR A ROYAL SON. Matthew 22:1-14. Following the failure of the chief priests and Pharisees to lay malicious hands on Jesus (Matthew 21:45-46), Jesus “answered and spoke to them again by parables” (Matthew 22:1). He spoke of the kingdom of heaven being “like unto a king, who made ...read more

  • A Fine Balance: Fulfilling Our Obligations To Both God And The State

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 29, 2014
    based on 7 ratings
     | 8,575 views

    Render to Caesar Caesar’s image, which is on the coin; and to God God’s image, which is on man.

    FULFILLING OBLIGATIONS TO GOD AND STATE. Matthew 22:15-22. 1. Wickedness finds strange bedfellows. The Pharisees denied the Emperor any right to demand tribute money - and whilst they no doubt used the common money for common purposes, they questioned the validity of the coinage (which ...read more

  • A Dream Of Joseph.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 7, 2013
    based on 14 ratings
     | 10,599 views

    Joseph was not afraid to take the lead in his family, and opened his heart and his home to the Son of God.

    JOSEPH’S DREAM. Matthew 1:18-25. Joseph was a dreamer. This was true of the Old Testament Joseph, the son of Jacob, derogatively referred to as “this dreamer” (cf. Genesis 37:19). It was also true of the New Testament Joseph, recognised here as “the son of David” (Matthew 1:20). Joseph ...read more

  • The Final Revelation

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 14, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,798 views

    When we see Jesus, we see the very reflection of God Himself.

    THE FINAL REVELATION. Hebrews 1:1-4. The poetry of this short passage is beautiful, and the theology is exquisite. The high Christology of these words and phrases resonates with the majesty and dignity of our Saviour. We are left in no doubt that “the Son” is the very voice of God to mankind. ...read more

  • Persecution: The Opening Salvoes

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 25, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,560 views

    Religious opposition to the Gospel!

    PERSECUTION: THE OPENING SALVOES. Acts 4:1-31; Acts 5:12-42. Soon after the early success of Pentecost, the fledgling New Testament church found herself facing persecution. This is not surprising, and quite in keeping with the pattern of the earlier ministry of Jesus. For example, Herod the ...read more

  • Children Of Light Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Apr 9, 2021
     | 2,677 views

    Believers in Christ are: 1) A People of God’s Possession (1 Peter 2:9c), 2) A People of Proclamation (1 Peter 2:9d), 3) A Privileged People (1 Peter 2:9e) and finally, 4) A Pardoned People (1 Peter 2:10).

    1 Peter 2:9–10 (9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood), a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not ...read more

  • The Living Stone Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Mar 26, 2021
     | 4,173 views

    God’s construction involves 1) Living Stones (1 Peter 2:4-5a), functioning as 2) Living Priests (1 Peter 2:5b), offering 3) Living Sacrifices (1 Peter 2:5c).

    Luke 19:28–40 28 And when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. 29 When he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples, 30 saying, “Go into the village in front of you, where on entering you will find a colt tied, ...read more
