    The Call Of Moses. Part Two.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 22, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 461 views

    The LORD's gracious compassion. Moses commissioned by the LORD.

    THE CALL OF MOSES. Part Two. Exodus 3:7-15. EXODUS 3:7. The second thing that the LORD said was, I have surely “seen” the affliction of my people which are in Egypt; I have “heard” their cry; for I “know” their sorrows. This echoes the end of the previous chapter: Israel ‘sighed’ by reason of ...read more

    Jacob And Esau.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 23, 2023

    The purposes of God and the scheming of Jacob.

    JACOB AND ESAU. Genesis 25:19-34. 1. The two nations in Rebekah’s womb. GENESIS 25:19-20. As the genealogy passes from Abraham to Isaac we are told that Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah. GENESIS 25:21. Once again there is a record of prolonged barrenness within the family. ...read more

    Sour Grapes

     | 4,808 views

    From blame to shame. A call to repentance.

    SOUR GRAPES. Ezekiel 18:1-4; Ezekiel 18:25-32. It seems to be very much a part of fallen human nature that we want to blame someone else for the things that go wrong in our lives. This all began in the garden of Eden, after the first couple ate of the forbidden fruit. Adam blamed both his ...read more

    The Reproaches Of Jesus.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,323 views

    Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

    THE REPROACHES OF JESUS. Psalm 69:7-18. PSALM 69:7. This is a cry akin to ‘My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?’ (cf. Psalm 22:1). Of course, we are aware that it was for OUR benefit, OUR salvation that Jesus died. But even before that, it was for the glory of God: that He might be seen to ...read more

    The Petulance Of Jonah.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 25, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,421 views

    God, for His part, cares for the whole of His creation.

    THE PETULANCE OF JONAH. Jonah 3:10, Jonah 4:1-11. The LORD is merciful to those who repent (JONAH 3:10; cf. Psalm 130:3-4). When Jonah at last arrived in Nineveh after his circuitous journey, his message was simple: ‘Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown’ (cf. Jonah 3:4). ...read more

    Genuine Love

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 7, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,820 views

    Another song of agape love.

    GENUINE LOVE. Romans 12:9-13. In Greek, the first clause of Romans 12:9 has no verb, so could literally be rendered “love without hypocrisy” or “love unfeigned”. From this, I have taken ‘Genuine Love’ as a title for this section. The second clause talks about evil and good, forming a kind of ...read more

    What Flows From Within.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 6, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,867 views

    Our outer life has its source in what is going on inside us.

    WHAT FLOWS FROM WITHIN. Matthew 15:10-28. I). The War Against Sin. Matthew 15:10-20. MATTHEW 15:10-11. Jesus turned away from the Pharisees and summoned the crowd to Himself. “Hear and understand,” He taught. Despite what the Pharisees might teach, “it is NOT that which goes into the mouth ...read more

    Look Unto The Rock.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 12, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,445 views

    That Rock was Christ. 1 Corinthians 10 verse 4.

    LOOK UNTO THE ROCK. Isaiah 51:1-6. The imperative “Hearken to me” (Isaiah 51:1; Isaiah 51:4; cf. Isaiah 51:7) is strongly reminiscent of Jesus’ own expression, ‘He that hath ears to hear, let him hear’ (cf. Matthew 11:15; Matthew 13:9). Hearken. Listen intently. The words of God are ...read more

    A Call To Worship

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 23, 2015
    based on 8 ratings
     | 13,028 views

    Who is this LORD, that we should worship Him? Why should we trust and praise this God?

    A CALL TO WORSHIP. Psalm 146. The last five Psalms (146-150) all begin and end with an exhortation to praise the LORD, addressed collectively to the congregation of God’s people. Yet it is not enough for the praise leader just to call others to worship: it is also the exercise of his own soul ...read more

     | 1,622 views

    Have ye understood all these things? Matthew 13:51.

    SAMPLING SOME PARABLES. Matthew 13:31-33, Matthew 13:44-52. I. The Mustard Seed (Matthew 13:31-32). This Sermon had its roots in a children’s address given long ago and far away. At that time I was interested (for all the best practical reasons) in gardening. I brought some seeds as a visual ...read more

    The LORD's leading in the pilgrimage of this life.

    THE VALLEY OF TEARS. Psalm 84:5-7. “Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee, in whose heart are the ways” (Psalm 84:5). So reads the Hebrew, without adding any extra words into the translation. The word for “ways” here speaks of a prepared way, as for when a ruling monarch is ...read more

    The Lord Will Perfect Me

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 12, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,973 views

    This is a Psalm of thanksgiving, and of hope.

    THE LORD WILL PERFECT ME. Psalm138:1-8. In Psalm 138:1, David praises the LORD. 1st, his praise is wholehearted (cf. Psalm 9:1; Psalm 86:12-13; Psalm 103:1-2; Psalm 111:1). 2nd, it is ‘in the face of’ (to use a contemporary term) all other would-be or otherwise imaginary ‘gods’ (cf. ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,100 views

    Waiting faith and expectant trust.

    AN OPEN-ENDED PRAYER. Psalm 123:1-4. This is a short, impassioned prayer: a plea for help in the face of adversaries. It begins with adoration, with an abrupt “Unto You…” (PSALM 123:1). This is a song of Ascents and its opening may be paralleled to another: ‘I to the hills will lift ...read more
