    Bible reading: Luke 4:14-21.

    LUKE 4:19. Bible Reading: Luke 4:14-21. “To preach the acceptable year of the Lord” (Luke 4:19). The expression, “the acceptable year of the Lord” includes everything in the previous verse: that is, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the ...read more

     | 2,191 views

    The holy seed is Jesus, and those united to Him.

    THE HOLY SEED. Isaiah 6:9-13. The mission of Isaiah was to go to a people who were proudly short-sighted, stubbornly deaf, and wilfully ignorant of the word of God (Isaiah 6:9; cf. Matthew 13:13-15). The prophet’s message was to be one which confirmed them in their preferred blindness, ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 23, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,642 views

    Continuity and discontinuity between the natural and the spiritual.

    THE NATURE OF THE RESURRECTION BODY. 1 Corinthians 15:35-38, 1 Corinthians 15:42-50. We can imagine one of Paul’s hecklers in Corinth posing the question, “How are the dead raised? And with what body do they come?” (1 Corinthians 15:35). This does not sound like an inquiry of faith, but ...read more

  • Reconciliation, And Grace To Follow.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 3, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,046 views

    Our reconciliation with God is made possible by the grace of God through the work of Christ. Having been reconciled, we are made the righteousness of God in Him. We are enabled, by the same grace of God, to follow God in the way of righteousness.

    RECONCILIATION, AND GRACE TO FOLLOW. 2 Corinthians 5:20-21; 2 Corinthians 6:1-10. As an ambassador for Christ, Paul was pleading with the Corinthians - on behalf of Christ - that they go on being reconciled to God (2 Corinthians 5:20). We may feel that this is unnecessary: if we are ‘called ...read more

  • Cutting A Covenant With The Lord.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,158 views

    Faith in the certainty of His promises, despite all appearances to the contrary.

    CUTTING A COVENANT WITH THE LORD. Genesis 15:1-12, Genesis 15:17-18. 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 ...read more

  • The Blessing Of Participation.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,454 views

    Celebrating the Passover in the Promised Land.

    THE BLESSING OF PARTICIPATION. Joshua 5:9-12. The LORD spoke metaphorically of having “rolled away the reproach of Egypt” (Joshua 5:9). Egypt stands for the place of captivity. In like manner Jesus, by taking our reproaches upon Himself (cf. Psalm 69:9), sets us free from the captivity of sin ...read more

  • God Is Doing A New Thing.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,396 views

    From past mercies to present help and future salvation.

    GOD IS DOING A NEW THING. Isaiah 43:16-21. Isaiah reminds us of how the Sovereign LORD had opened the Red Sea, and made a path through the Jordan (Isaiah 43:16-17). Yet the Prophet is only looking back in order to look forward: “remember not” the former things - don’t yearn for what we might ...read more

  • An Outpouring Of Worship.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,121 views

    Mary at the feet of Jesus.

    AN OUTPOURING OF WORSHIP. John 12:1-8. It was six days before the Passover, and the family in Bethany made our Lord a supper. The resurrected Lazarus was there, and Martha was serving. In a singular act of devotion, Mary took a whole bottle of very expensive Indian perfume and lavished it upon ...read more

  • Behold Your King.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 11, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,620 views

    The humiliation of Jesus, the frustration of Pilate, and the treason of the Jewish priesthood.

    BEHOLD YOUR KING. John 19:1-16. The nineteenth chapter of John’s Gospel opens in the midst of the ridiculous drama of Pilate’s darting back and forth between the hypocritical Jewish leadership on the doorstep, who refused to come into the judgment hall of the palace ‘lest they be defiled and ...read more

  • The Glorification Of The Son.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,224 views

    That ye love one another as I have loved you. John 13.34.

    THE GLORIFICATION OF THE SON. John 13:31-38. JOHN 13:31-32. The inevitable process which would culminate in the self-sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf was reaching its climax. Jesus spoke of the reciprocal “glorification” of both “God” and “the Son of man.” In this we have the 'glory' of ...read more

  • Immanuel: With Us The God.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,083 views

    A sign refused - a sign offered nonetheless.

    IMMANUEL: WITH US THE GOD. Isaiah 7:10-14. The northern kingdom of Israel/Ephraim, along with her ally Syria/Aram, intended to force the Davidic kingdom of Judah into their alliance against the Assyrians (Isaiah 7:1), by setting up a puppet king - a ‘Son of No Good’ (Isaiah 7:6) - in Jerusalem. ...read more

  • A Royal Nativity. Revised.

    The most significant census of all history.

    A ROYAL NATIVITY. Luke 2:1-7. Caesar Augustus sent out a decree that “all the world” should be “registered” (Luke 2:1). Unbeknown to the mighty Emperor, this was going to be the most significant census of all history. After all, even the most powerful of potentates are subservient, whether ...read more

     | 1,197 views

    While Jesus stood bound in the house of the high priest, bold outspoken Peter denied Him three times.

    DENIALS AND TRUTH. John 18:15-40. Although the disciples all initially scattered immediately after Jesus’ arrest (cf. Matthew 26:56), Simon Peter and “another disciple” thereafter followed Jesus and gained entrance into the palace of the high priest. The girl at the door challenged Peter, ...read more

  • Imprecations In Context.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 19, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 327 views

    To attack God's people is to attack the LORD Himself!

    IMPRECATIONS IN CONTEXT. Psalm 83:1-2, Psalm 83:13-18. Today’s Psalm begins, “Keep not silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still O God” (PSALM 83:1). As if He ever would, when to attack God’s people is to attack the LORD Himself! ‘Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence,’ ...read more

  • The Vain Confidence Of The Disobedient.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 21, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 165 views

    We might hide our sins from men, but God knows our hearts.

    THE VAIN CONFIDENCE OF THE DISOBEDIENT. Jeremiah 7:9-15. As Paul unfolded his doctrine of justification by grace through faith in his Epistle to the Romans, he uttered the phrase ‘But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound’ (cf. Romans 5:20), and he realised that he had to square up to ...read more
