    based on 11 ratings
     | 12,088 views

    In the fullness of the time God sent forth His Son (Galatians 4:4). What a momentous sentence!

    THE FULLNESS OF TIME. Galatians 4:4-7. The Apostle Paul was astonished that the Christian converts in Galatia had strayed away from the true gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to a “different gospel, which is no gospel at all” (Galatians 1:6-7). By turning back to the law as if it was the keeping ...read more

  • The Christian And Sin

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014

     | 9,047 views

    So what is to be the Christian's relationship to sin? Strictly speaking, he should not have such a relationship!

    THE CHRISTIAN AND SIN. 1 John 3:1-10. “Behold,” says John. Pause for thought and reflection. For it is indeed a wonderful demonstration of God's love that “we” should be called the sons of God (1 John 3:1). This was not what we deserved, but as we know from other Scriptures, it was ‘while ...read more

     | 8,575 views

    The pressure of the crowd must never be allowed to take precedence over a right relationship with God.

    THIS IS WHAT I CAME TO DO. Mark 1:29-39. 1. The first Deacon (Mark 1:29-31). After the synagogue service in Capernaum, Jesus and His four companions went to the home of Simon and Andrew (Mark 1:29). Was this the first after-church fellowship - or perhaps even the formation of the first ...read more

  • Be Ye Reconciled To God

    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,165 views

    The once-and-forever experience of true conversion, and the on-going necessity of being sanctified.

    BE YE RECONCILED TO GOD. 2 Corinthians 5:20-21; 2 Corinthians 6:1-2. 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 out ones’ ...read more

  • The Paraclete

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,657 views

    The church is called to bear witness to Jesus, but this witness is primarily the witness of the Holy Spirit.

    THE PARACLETE. John 15:26-27. I. CONTEXT Jesus said, ‘I will pray the Father, and (1) He shall give you another Comforter’ (John 14:16). The word Paraclete, here translated as ‘Comforter’, speaks of One who draws alongside. The same word can be translated as ‘Helper’, ‘Counsellor’ or ...read more

  • A Greater Testimony

    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,627 views

    Blessed Assurance!

    A GREATER TESTIMONY. 1 John 5:9-13. The claims of 1 John about Jesus Christ are trustworthy, because their source is God. Why are these claims important? They are important because they are the words which lead to everlasting life (John 6:68). A matter may not be established except on the ...read more

    Jesus predicts His death and resurrection. A blind man receives his sight, and his salvation.

    HOLISTIC HEALING THROUGH THE CROSS. Luke 18:31-43. 1. Jesus predicts His death and resurrection (Luke 18:31-34). Jesus was a patient teacher. The Lord reminded His disciples that His journey to Jerusalem would precipitate events which would lead to His death and resurrection. This was why ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,273 views

    Two examples of faith in Jesus.

    A LEPER AND A CENTURION. Matthew 8:1-13. At the beginning of the Sermon of the Mount Jesus had been ‘set’ and ‘His disciples came unto Him’ (cf. Matthew 5:1). At the end of the Sermon we were told of the other people who had been listening in, how they had been amazed at His teaching: ‘For ...read more

  • Jesus In The Midst: The Upper Room.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 10, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,609 views

    Trying to understand Jesus without the Scriptures is futile, and comprehending Scripture without Jesus opening our understanding is impossible

    JESUS IN THE MIDST: THE UPPER ROOM. Luke 24:36-48. What a scene met the two from the Emmaus Road upon their return to Jerusalem! The dejected church was now declaring its Easter message: “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon.” To which they added their own testimony of the risen ...read more

  • Blessing, Lament, And Blessed Assurance

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 26, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,828 views

    The blessing and suffering of God's people.

    BLESSING, LAMENT, AND BLESSED ASSURANCE. Psalm 41. This is a Psalm of David. It is quite possibly about David. It is also about our Lord Jesus (except that Jesus has no personal sin to confess, unlike Psalm 41:4). It is even quoted by Jesus (Psalm 41:9; cf. John 13:18). It is also about His ...read more

  • Remembering The Works Of The Lord.

    “Who is so great a God as our God?” (PSALM 77:13b).

    REMEMBERING THE WORKS OF THE LORD. Psalm 77:11-20. PSALM 77:11. “I will remember the works of the LORD.” This we must do, for ‘Hitherto hath the LORD helped us’ (cf. 1 Samuel 7:12). ‘Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever’ (cf. Hebrews 13:8), so we let our yesterday inform our ...read more

    The consequences of Adam's first sin.

    WHERE ART THOU? Genesis 3:9-19. Adam was the representative head of the human race, and when he partook of the forbidden fruit he brought disaster and death upon all of his descendants.

    'Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil' (Ephesians 6:10).

    THE TRICKS AND DECEPTIONS OF THE DEVIL. Genesis 3:1-6. Perhaps our first parents did not know the history of the fall of Lucifer, the day star in Isaiah 14:12-21 and Ezekiel 28:11-19.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 336 views

    The work of the Good Shepherd.

    THE LORD OUR SHEPHERD. Ezekiel 34:11-16a. First, we see the Good Shepherd as the one who seeks out the lost sheep, Ezekiel 34:11. ‘If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray,’ teaches Jesus, ‘does he not go to the mountains to seek the one who is straying?’ (cf. Matthew 18:12). ...read more

    "Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what He hath done for my soul" (Psalm 66:16).

    OF ANSWERED PRAYER. Psalm 66:14-20. The testimony of the people of God is supplemented with the testimony of one believer: like a good old-fashioned evangelistic meeting, which not only has good preaching, but also individual testimonies to follow. The voice of the one rises above the song of ...read more
