    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 26, 2016
    based on 15 ratings
     | 14,523 views

    The Lord's criteria for service.

    ANOINTING A MAN AFTER GOD’S OWN HEART. 1 Samuel 15:34-35; 1 Samuel 16:1-13. Israel had demanded a king, just so that they could be like the other nations. Samuel had protested, but the LORD allowed it. After all, they were not rejecting Samuel: they were rejecting the LORD (1 Samuel 8:4-7). ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 10,346 views

    Comfort for the bereaved.

    THE RETURN OF JESUS. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. Jesus taught that the “day and hour” of His return is known only to His Father (Mark 13:32). However, the new believers in Thessalonica seem to have got the impression that His Coming was imminent. As a result of this misunderstanding, a question ...read more

    The Centrality Of Scripture

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 29, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,522 views

    What Scripture is, who is its Author, and what it is for.

    THE CENTRALITY OF SCRIPTURE. 2 Timothy 3:14-17. 1. Three times Paul addresses Timothy with an emphatic “you therefore" (2 Timothy 2:1) or “but you” (2 Timothy 3:10; 2 Timothy 3:14). In the fist instance, this sets Timothy alongside those who refreshed Paul in his imprisonment (2 Timothy ...read more

    No Other Gospel

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,894 views

    To add anything to the gospel of the grace of God is to deny the efficacy of the Cross of Jesus.

    NO OTHER GOSPEL. Galatians 1:1-12. From the outset, the tone of the Apostle Paul’s letter to “the churches of Galatia” (Galatians 1:2b) is one of disappointment. The opening signature “Paul, an apostle” is immediately followed by a negative assertion - “not from men nor through man”; and a ...read more

    A Metaphor Of A Vine

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,510 views

    You turn us, O LORD, You shine on us. Without You there is no salvation.

    A METAPHOR OF A VINE. Psalm 80:1-2; Psalm 80:8-19. There are two metaphors in this Psalm: that of God as Shepherd (Psalm 80:1-7), and that of Israel as a vine (Psalm 80:8-16). It is upon the second of these that I wish to concentrate our attention. But first we must remind ourselves of the ...read more

    Mary's obedience demonstrates the proper response to God's call in the life of each one.

    “In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah, and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.

    "And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived” (1 KINGS 17:22).

    ELIJAH RAISES THE WIDOW’S SON. 1 Kings 17:17-24. Lest the widow of Zarephath should imagine that she was singled out in preference even to the Israeli widows on account of her own merits, she was sent a trial of faith, which both made her aware of her own sinfulness, and of the possible source ...read more

    Hoarding wealth versus Rich toward God.

    BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS. Luke 12:13-21. Sometimes people used to approach a Rabbi to settle disputes, so the petitioner in this account may not have realized he was doing anything wrong when he approached Jesus with a request concerning the inheritance left by his father (Luke 12:13). We are not ...read more

    The Nature Of Angel Food

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 3, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,332 views

    One step to recovery after any sort of 'burn-out' might be to eat. However, our spiritual 'feeding' is of far deeper significance.

    THE NATURE OF ‘ANGEL FOOD’. 1 Kings 19:4-8. An angel awoke Elijah, providing sustenance and instructing him to eat. Elijah ate, and then lay down again. The LORD knew that the onward journey to the mountain of God would otherwise be too much for him, so the angel again fed him. “Elijah was able ...read more

     | 6,621 views

    "For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that ye through His poverty might become rich" (2 Corinthians 8:9).

    THE GRACE OF GIVING. 2 Corinthians 8:7-15. 1. The example of the Macedonians (2 Corinthians 8:1-5). (v1) By the grace of God, the Macedonian churches (Philippi and Thessalonica) had been particularly forward in giving. (v2) Their gift was given out of poverty: like that of ...read more

    Living for the kingdom. Waiting, listening, watching for Jesus' return.

    THE MASTER WHO SERVES. Luke 12:32-40. Jesus has reassured His disciples that they are of more value to God than many sparrows, and that the very hairs of their head are numbered (Luke 12:6-7). He has also taught us, through the parable of the rich fool, to value the things of God more than the ...read more

     | 7,812 views

    The LORD knew His plans for Jeremiah, and had a particular end in view (Jeremiah 29:11). The same is true for us: both as Christian individuals, and as Church.

    A COMMON CALL. Jeremiah 1:4-10. Throughout history both the Church in general, and churches in particular, have published books of Common Order, Common Worship, and Common Prayer; common lectionaries, common liturgies, and joint statements of faith and mission. This is not necessarily a bad ...read more
