  • A Prayerful Advocate For Those Who Groan

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 9, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,753 views

    The Holy Spirit as first-fruits, and efficacious intercessor.

    A PRAYERFUL ADVOCATE FOR THOSE WHO GROAN. Romans 8:22-27. There are several references to the Holy Spirit in Romans 8. He is named at least nineteen times in the first twenty-seven verses. This serves to contrast the weakness of ‘the law of sin and death’ (discussed at length in Romans 7), with ...read more

    A woman healed, a child raised from the dead. Application.

    TWELVE YEARS OF SUFFERING, AND TWELVE YEARS OF LIFE. Mark 5:21-43. In this particular section Mark presents us with a ‘story within a story’ – and, as you might expect with such a literary device, there are both similarities and dissimilarities. First of all, we have the not unusual picture of ...read more

  • O Magnify The Lord With Me

    based on 11 ratings
     | 18,817 views

    We taste and see the goodness of the LORD when the words of the LORD have their rightful place in our lives.

    O MAGNIFY THE LORD WITH ME. Psalm 34:1-8. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul. Mistakenly thinking that he might find refuge with the Philistines, he only escaped from their clutches by feigning madness (1 Samuel 21:10-15). Then he hid in a cave. Knowing that David was in this place, his ...read more

    The Temple of the LORD and the dynasty of David.

    HIS PLANS, NOT OUR PLANS. 2 Samuel 7:1-16. (The title of this Sermon is based upon Isaiah 55:8-9.) There are three main thrusts in our reading in 2 Samuel today: 1. There is a subtle difference between a good idea and God’s will (2 Samuel 7:1-4); 2. God’s presence cannot be contained in a ...read more

  • The Grace Of Giving

    "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

  • The Field Is The World

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 10,860 views

    There is no separating out, until the harvest.

    THE FIELD IS THE WORLD. Matthew 13:24-30; Matthew 13:36-43. The interpretation of the parable of the wheat and the tares (Matthew 13:24-30) should not be a matter of contention, as Jesus Himself gives the interpretation (Matthew 13:36-43). One modern preacher applies this passage to the heart ...read more

    Applying the Word of God to our own lives.

    CONVEYING THE MESSAGE OF THE GOSPEL. Matthew 13:44-58. 1. THE DISCOVERY OF TREASURE (Matthew 13:44-46). Jesus said that the kingdom of heaven is like a man discovering treasure in a field, and selling all that he has to buy that field; or like a merchant man who discovers a pearl of great ...read more

  • Grace In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,676 views

    There is hope for the children of believers, if they will but put their trust in God.

    GRACE IN THE WILDERNESS. Jeremiah 32. The LORD speaks of Israel's time after her deliverance from Egypt as a “time of espousals,” when she was “holiness to the LORD” (Jeremiah 2:2-3). This may seem a little surprising, since we know that the forty years wandering in the wilderness were a ...read more

  • The Bad And The Good Shepherd

    based on 7 ratings
     | 16,286 views

    Contrasting irresponsible shepherds with Jesus, the Good Shepherd.

    THE BAD AND THE GOOD SHEPHERD. Ezekiel 34. The teaching of Jesus and of the New Testament is that Jesus is the Good Shepherd, who seeks out the lost sheep, and dies for His flock. This is in contrast to those who are not shepherds at all, but merely hired helps, who have no personal concern with ...read more

  • Grace Sufficient

    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,055 views

    Kept by the grace of God in the midst of afflictions.

    GRACE SUFFICIENT. 2 Corinthians 12:2-10. In the process of composing an argument against some proud boasters who measured themselves by nothing more than one another (2 Corinthians 10:12), Paul allowed himself to engage in some rhetorical boasting which confronted his foes on their own ground (2 ...read more

  • A Camel That Passed Through The Eye Of A Needle

    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,209 views

    Jesus 'seeking and saving' the Lost.

    A CAMEL THAT PASSED THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE. Luke 19:1-10. We recently read Jesus’ parable of a rich man who was only interested in hoarding his wealth, had no present compassion for the poor, and was living as if there was no God (Luke 12:16-21). God’s verdict on this man was that he was a ...read more

  • Beware Of Covetousness

    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,557 views

    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

    For eighteen long years this woman had struggled with her infirmity. What better day to heal her than the Sabbath?

    LOOSED! STAND UP AND PRAISE GOD. Luke 13:10-17. In this remarkable little incident we find Jesus teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath (Luke 13:10). Perhaps one of the first things we notice is just how obedient the Lord was to the laws and customs of His time. Should not we also be ...read more

    AN UNCHAINED GOSPEL. 2 Timothy 2:8-15. I. SALVATION WITH ETERNAL GLORY (2 Timothy 2:8-10). Paul asks Timothy to “remember Jesus Christ raised from the dead’ (2 Timothy 2:8). Here in the Greek of 2 Timothy 2:8 the resurrection is mentioned BEFORE the Lord’s nativity into the house of David. ...read more

    A Five Point Sermon.

    A PERPETUAL PROMISE FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD. John 6:36-37. Jesus said, ‘I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst’ (John 6:35). The reaction to this statement was one of antagonism. Jesus’ listeners ‘then murmured at Him, because ...read more
