    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 8,276 views

    Meeting Jesus in the waters of baptism.

    THE BAPTISM OF JESUS. Matthew 3:13-17. The baptism administered by John was with a view to the repentance of sins. So, immediately, we are challenged with the thought: why did Jesus make the journey from Galilee to Jordan to be baptised by John (Matthew 3:13)? After all, as John would argue ...read more

  • Between Grace And Glory

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 14, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,197 views

    The grace that saves us is the grace that teaches us how to renounce the old way of life, and live the new life which is ours in Christ Jesus.

    BETWEEN GRACE AND GLORY. Titus 2:11-14. The Epistle of the Apostle Paul to Titus has much to say about how Christian people should live between the two Advents - or “epiphanies” - of our Lord Jesus Christ: and this little section sets a theological basis for our behaviour. The grace of God has ...read more

  • An Ephesian Pentecost

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 26, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,928 views

    Pentecost has a way of catching up with people.

    AN EPHESIAN PENTECOST. Acts 19:1-7. 1. APOLLOS. Apollos was well taught in the Scriptures, and he was “accurately” teaching the things concerning the Lord - but Apollos knew only the baptism of John. When Aquila and Priscilla perceived the deficiency in his teaching in Ephesus, they drew him ...read more

    How can we thank God enough?

    THE ONCE AND FUTURE SALVATION. 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13. The Apostle Paul had at last heard a longed-for report of the Thessalonians’ faith, and love, and devotion (1 Thessalonians 3:6). Timothy’s good news (the word is - literally - “evangel” = gospel) was of such moment that it was a source of ...read more

  • The Ministry Of Baptism

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 14, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,725 views

    The word of God did not come to the palaces of the great or the mighty in church or state, but to John, in the wilderness.

    THE MINISTRY OF BAPTISM. Luke 3:1-22. People may be impressed with names and titles, but God is not. As Peter told the household of Cornelius, God shows no partiality: “God is no respecter of persons” (Acts 10:34). Tiberius was Emperor in Rome. Pontius Pilate was governor in Judea. Herod was ...read more

    Just as there twins in people, there are also twin truths in the Bible.

    INTRODUCTION This morning I’m beginning a new series from Paul’s first epistle to the Thessalonians. Some people think an epistle is the wife of an apostle, but it’s just a letter. When I finish 1 Thessalonians we’re going to go right into 2 Thessalonians, and then 1 and 2 ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2017
    based on 9 ratings
     | 12,961 views

    The LORD has appeared of old to me, saying, Yea, I have loved you with an everlasting love: therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn you (Jeremiah 31:3).

    AN EVERLASTING LOVE. Jeremiah 31:1-6. The book of Jeremiah is mostly, but not exclusively, a book about God’s judgment. The painful ‘rooting out, pulling down, destroying, and throwing down’ spoken of in Jeremiah’s commission was but a purging, to make room for later ‘building and planting’ ...read more

    RESURRECTION HOPE. 1 Peter 1:3. What significance has what happened in Jerusalem nearly 2,000 years ago got for us today? We feel the reverberations of current world events as reported by the media, but the impact of the resurrection of Jesus Christ reaches not only across the miles, but ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,236 views

    The remission or retaining of sins is declarative, and belongs to the task of preaching the gospel.

    BREATHE ON ME BREATH OF GOD. John 20:19-23. It was the evening of the first day of the week: the day of the resurrection; the first day of the new creation. The disciples met together behind closed doors “for fear” (John 20:19). Fear stifles faith: this is why the Lord and His messengers so ...read more

     | 855 views

    Samson was a rugged character, rough as old boots. When he did call out to God, God answered his cries. They weren't cried out often. Are we consistent in our faith and prayer life? It makes a difference to our spiritual strength.

    Samson, what a life, in our weakness God is glorified. Judges 13-16. The Judges are as we mentioned last week were a group of leaders of Israel. We started with some discussion about Othniel last week and how out of all the Judges he nailed the role, and then the rest started into a down-ward ...read more

    Do Christians really believe that salvation is found ONLY through Jesus Christ?

    There were a lot of things one could believe in in the ancient world… • There were all manner of Greek or Roman ‘gods’ one could worship… just take your pick! Epicureanism was a common philosophy. So was Stoicism. There were all kinds of mystery religions and pagan worship ideas. • There were ...read more
