  • An Indictment Against The Unscrupulous.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 10, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,274 views

    The LORD cares for the poor. So should we.

    AN INDICTMENT AGAINST THE UNSCRUPULOUS. Amos 8:4-7. You trample upon the needy and make the poor of the land fail (Amos 8:4; cf. Amos 5:11). Your religious observances are hypocritical, and you cheat your customers with false weights and measures (Amos 8:5). You enslave the poor and needy ...read more

  • Come Let Us Reason Together.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 10, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,892 views

    The failure of our efforts and the glory of Christ's work.

    COME LET US REASON TOGETHER. Isaiah 1:10-18. Isaiah addresses his congregation as “rulers of Sodom” and “people of Gomorrah”, and begins to reason with them (Isaiah 1:10). It is all quite shocking: how dare he expose our comfortable, upright congregation to such strong language? After all, ...read more

  • You Forgave Me.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 10, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,641 views

    Unrepentant silence is detrimental to our spiritual well-being.

    YOU FORGAVE ME. Psalm 32:1-7. The beatitudes of Psalm 32:1-2 remind us of Psalm 1:1-2, which describes the righteous man and proclaims him blessed. Yet, since the fall of Adam, no mere man has been born with original righteousness. The second Psalm leads us to the place where we can find this ...read more

  • Paul, Timothy, And The Good Deposit.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 16, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,811 views

    Keeping the beautiful Gospel entrusted to us.

    PAUL, TIMOTHY, AND THE GOOD DEPOSIT. 2 Timothy 1:1-14. Paul introduces himself at the beginning of this letter as “an apostle of Jesus Christ” (2 Timothy 1:1a). This apostle was not one of the original twelve, but was a witness to the resurrection - an essential mark for an apostle (cf. Acts ...read more

  • Preach The Word.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 28, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,929 views

    A Solemn Charge to the Man of God.

    PREACH THE WORD. 2 Timothy 4:1-5. Paul has just given Timothy the assurance that “ALL Scripture is out-breathed by God and is profitable… that the man of God may be” complete, fully equipped for whatever work God has for us (2 Timothy 3:16-17). “I charge you therefore before God,” ...read more

  • The Faith Of Abraham. Abridged.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 17, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,885 views

    The LORD will provide Himself a lamb for a burnt offering.

    THE FAITH OF ABRAHAM. Abridged. Genesis 22:1-14. Sometimes in our Christian lives we are challenged to surrender to God that which we hold most dear, that upon which we set our hopes, even that which God has given to us as a gift. God promised Abraham a son, but the patriarch’s wife ...read more

  • How Long?

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 20, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,441 views

    A flow from pain through prayer to praise.

    HOW LONG? Psalm 13:1-6. This is a lament, a Psalm of complaint. This is evident from the outset, with the fourfold cry of pain, “How long?” (Psalm 13:1-2). The complaint is addressed first to the LORD (Psalm 13:1), but then seems to descend into something resembling self-pity (Psalm ...read more

  • The Omniscience Of God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 11, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,327 views

    The response to "The LORD has searched me" (cf. Psalm 139:1) is “Search me and know my thoughts” (Psalm 139:23).

    THE OMNISCIENCE OF GOD. Psalm 139:1-12, Psalm 139:23-24. When we read Psalm 139, sometimes it is hard to tell whether we should read it with a sense of dread: The LORD knows me (PSALM 139:1); He knows everything I am doing (PSALM 139:2); He knows where I am going (PSALM 139:3); He knows my every ...read more

  • The Destiny Of Creation.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 14, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,904 views

    Creation groans. We groan within ourselves. Creation is subjected in hope. We are saved in hope.

    THE DESTINY OF CREATION. Romans 8:12-25. 1. The Mortification of Sin (Romans 8:12-14). Paul has just commented that ‘if Christ is in you the body is dead on account of sin’ (cf. Romans 8:10). And that ‘the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead will also quicken (revivify, make ...read more

  • An Appeal In Hope.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,091 views

    This Psalm looks beyond the present crisis and need, through the availability of God’s righteousness, to the ultimate hope of the resurrection.

    AN APPEAL IN HOPE. Psalm 17:1-7, Psalm 17:15. PSALM 17:1. How can a man, born dead in trespasses and sins, plead with the LORD to “hear the right?” Well, it is as Abraham said, ‘Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?’ (Genesis 18:25). When we use this Psalm, we are not appealing to our ...read more

  • A Call To Faith.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,191 views

    What do we need to purchase the water of salvation? Nothing at all! It is a free gift of the true and living God.

    A CALL TO FAITH. Isaiah 55:1-5. ISAIAH 55:1. The Bible is full of wonderful gracious invitations. Isaiah 55 begins with a call to the thirsty to come to the waters. This is in order to quench, not a physical thirst, but a spiritual thirst. Jesus said, ‘Blessed are those who hunger and ...read more

  • From Prison To Premiership.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 22, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,310 views

    "He sent a man before them." Psalm 105.17.

    FROM PRISON TO PREMIERSHIP. Psalm 105:16-22. PSALM 105:16. It is the LORD our God who “called for a famine upon the land: He brake the whole staff of bread.” Bread, or any staple, is aptly called ‘the staff of life’ – for without his staff man must surely fall. But such things are in the hands ...read more

  • The Faithfulness Of God.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,559 views

    "The gifts and calling of God are without repentance." Romans 11:29.

    THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD. Romans 11:1-2a, Romans 11:29-32. What is causing Paul so much stress and distress is that Israel ‘have not all obeyed the gospel’ (cf. Romans 10:16). As we enter our present chapter, Paul is asking: Does this then mean that God has “cast away His people” (Romans ...read more

  • Come Up Hither.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 4, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,331 views

    Whoever exalts himself shall be abased, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.

    COME UP HITHER. Proverbs 25:6-7. This proverb is doubtless what Jesus had in mind when He made His own parable about people choosing the finest seats for themselves at a feast (Luke 14:7-11). There are always ranks in society, any society. Solomon speaks of a king, and of “great men.” ...read more

  • The Nearness Of God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 27, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,607 views

    Popular religion speaks about man reaching up to God. However, the reality is that God is reaching down to us. Yes, Christ is stretching out His arms to us upon the Cross.

    THE NEARNESS OF GOD. Isaiah 65:1-9. People sometimes talk about somebody who ‘found God.’ God was never lost; it is people who are lost. When the prodigal son returned to his father, the father said, ‘this my son was lost, but now is found’ (cf. Luke 15:24). Yet, in their distress, ...read more
