  • A Beatific Epiphany Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 22, 2016
    based on 16 ratings
     | 7,002 views

    There are some things in life which we must do alone.

    A BEATIFIC EPIPHANY OF GOD. Exodus 24:12-18. Seventy-four people were called by the LORD to ‘come up’ and ‘worship afar off’ (Exodus 24:1). Each one had a part to play, but not all the same part (cf. 1 Corinthians 12:12; 1 Corinthians 12:28). The seventy elders, for example, were permitted a ...read more

    Tap into the resurrection power which is yours in Christ Jesus.

    A ‘SUFFERING SERVANT’ SERMON, IN SOLOMON’S PORCH. Acts 3:12-19. The occasion of this Sermon was after the healing of a crippled man who used to sit begging below a gate called ‘Beautiful’ – a huge brass gate which, according to Josephus, far outshone all the silver and gold in the Temple. When ...read more

  • The Garden

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,764 views

    Man in the image of God, man in the Garden.

    THE GARDEN. Genesis 2:4-25. In Genesis 1 we saw Creation from the cosmological viewpoint of God. The expression “These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth” in Genesis 2:4 links the seeming remoteness of God in the earlier account with the intimacy of the Garden, viewing Creation ...read more

  • The Ten Commandments

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 12, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,856 views

    In the LORD's schoolroom, the pass-mark is 100% - so contemplating the Law of God, summarily comprehended in the Ten Commandments, should drive us to Christ as our only hope!

    THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. Exodus 20:1-17. The first thing that we notice about the Ten Commandments is that they are the words of God (Exodus 20:1). Secondly we notice that the LORD is the God who has redeemed us (Exodus 20:2). It is not the keeping of the Ten Commandments which saves us: salvation ...read more

  • Grace And Peace, Thanksgiving And Fellowship

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 11 ratings
     | 7,124 views

    Grace as the source of spiritual gifts. Peace as something more than the absence of war. Thanksgiving is for always. Fellowship in Christ draws individuals together.

    GRACE AND PEACE, THANKSGIVING AND FELLOWSHIP. 1 Corinthians 1:3-9. It was customary for Greek and Roman letter-writers in the first century A.D. to prefix their epistles with “greetings” (Acts 15:23; James 1:1). Paul regularly uses a pun, replacing “greetings” with “grace” (1 Corinthians 1:3). ...read more

    He is calling us by name.

    THE GOOD SHEPHERD. John 10:1-18. On the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles, Jesus offered those who will hear Him the gift of living water, also known as the Holy Spirit (John 7:37-39). Some time after this Jesus declared Himself to be the light of the world (John 8:12), and ratified this ...read more

  • The Ministry Of Reconciliation

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 28, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,262 views

    The need for reconciliation arises because of our estrangement from God on account of our sin. The mediator of reconciliation is God. The cost of reconciliation is the death of Christ. The result of reconciliation is a new relationship with God.

    THE MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION. 2 Corinthians 5:16-21. This passage directly confronts us with the subject of reconciliation. It requires spiritual thinking: no longer regarding people from a worldly point of view - “according to the flesh” - and certainly not regarding Christ from a worldly ...read more

  • Bridling The Tongue

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,950 views

    The same tongue which responds to God’s manifest glories by blessing His holy name also denigrates the poor - the widow, the orphan, and the resident alien - who, like us, are made in His image.

    BRIDLING THE TONGUE. James 3:1-12. “If anyone thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is vain” (James 1:26). James 3:1. James begins his elucidation of this text with a warning against seeking pre-eminence amongst the brethren. This ...read more

  • The Victory Of The Suffering Of Christ

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,902 views

    In His victory we are made victorious, even when we suffer unjustly, and for His cause.

    THE VICTORY OF CHRIST’S SUFFERING. 1 Peter 3:13-22. Who will harm us if we do that which is good (1 Peter 3:13)? The question is rhetorical. If God be for us, who can be against us (Romans 8:31)? Yet even if we do seem to suffer for righteousness’ sake (1 Peter 3:14), we have the blessing of ...read more

  • Jesus, The Man Of Sorrows

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 20, 2016
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,182 views

    Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same Scripture, and preached unto him Jesus (Acts 8:35).

    JESUS, THE MAN OF SORROWS. Isaiah 52:13-53:12 – Fourth Servant Song. 1. The introduction to this prophecy of the Passion of Jesus begins not with His humiliation, but with His exaltation (Isaiah 52:13). The letter to the Hebrews speaks of Jesus, ‘who for the joy that was set before Him endured ...read more

  • A Celebration Of The Presence Of The Creator In Creation

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 4, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,788 views

    The Creating Spirit is still at large. Our life is in His hands.

    A CELEBRATION OF THE CREATOR’S PRESENCE IN CREATION. Psalm 104:24-35. Psalm 104 is not only a celebration of the LORD having created all things in the past, but also a celebration of how He is involved in Creation as it is today. This is why the Psalm as a whole does not just slavishly follow ...read more

  • An Indoor-Outdoor Spiritual Barbeque

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 14, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,029 views

    A damning indictment against stubborn unbelief, and a shocking redefining of 'family'...

    AN INDOOR-OUTDOOR SPIRITUAL BARBEQUE. Mark 3:20-35. Belief crowds in towards Jesus, oblivious of walls (oblivious of the roof on one occasion), in the hope of a healing touch (Mark 3:20). Unbelief stands outside, questioning Jesus’ sanity. Some well-meaning acquaintances of Jesus wanted to ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,194 views

    The mysterious workings of God's grace in the believer.

    A RIOT OF COLOUR AND BEAUTY. Mark 4:26-34. One year I dug a border outside my living room window. I bought some packets of seeds, dug small troughs, and scattered the seeds randomly in the little troughs before covering them over with light soil (cf. Mark 4:26). Job done. For a while, nothing ...read more

  • Turn Us, Shine Forth, Save Us.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 23, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,300 views

    God is unchangeable, but our experience of His Providence may vary from time to time.

    TURN US, SHINE FORTH, SAVE US. Psalm 80:1-7. Belief in the God of Israel is not blind faith, but an informed trust. One expression of our confidence that the LORD is in control of all things is to make our complaints known to Him. In Psalm 80 the writer bemoans the plight of the divided tribes ...read more

     | 3,502 views

    1Peter 2:6-9b. “The Living Cornerstone” 1) Coming to the Living Cornerstone (1 Peter 2:6), in having: 2) Affection for the Living Cornerstone (1 Peter 2:7-8), that believers are: 3) Chosen by the Living Cornerstone (1 Peter 2:9a), resulting in 4) Serving with the Living Cornerstone (1 Peter 2:9b).
