  • A Missionary To The Gentiles

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 30, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,286 views

    Anticipating the Gentile mission of Acts, Luke shows how it was first initiated by Jesus, through the unlikely figure of the man who came at Jesus from the tombs.

    A MISSIONARY TO THE GENTILES. Luke 8:26-39. The account of the man with the Legion of devils is a dramatic demonstration of the kind of spiritual warfare which is going on for the bodies, minds and souls of mankind. We notice, first of all, that it is Jesus who initiated this particular ...read more

  • Unity In Diversity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 9, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,978 views

    Unity, not uniformity. Family diversity. Growing up to maturity in Christ.

    UNITY IN DIVERSITY. Ephesians 4:1-16. Our unity is based in the unity of all three Persons of the Godhead (Ephesians 4:1-6) Those who are born again have but one God and Father, because we are all members of the same family. There is only one Lord (Jesus), so there is but one hope of our ...read more

  • The Attitude Of Christ.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 8, 2014
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,698 views

    Following the example of Jesus.

    THE ATTITUDE OF CHRIST. Philippians 2:5-11. “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus…” (Philippians 2:5). As we begin to evaluate this exhortation of the Apostle Paul, it is appropriate to ask some questions, not only of our text, but also of its context. Who is this Christ ...read more

  • The Song Of Zacharias

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 6, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,437 views

    The old priest opens his mouth for God, and prophesies.

    SONG OF ZACHARIAS. Luke 1:65-80. It is probable that Zacharias was elevated above purely personal petitions when he exercised his incense-burning office as priest in the Most Holy Place on the day that the angel Gabriel had appeared to him (Luke 1:9-11). The longings of the faithful remnant in ...read more

  • Choose Life

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 13, 2013
    based on 9 ratings
     | 10,921 views

    "Choose life": an exhortation that belongs not only to the outset of the Christian life, but to all our choices in this life.

    CHOOSE LIFE. Deuteronomy 30:15-20. On more than one occasion I am sure, “Choose life” (Deuteronomy 30:19) has been used, not inappropriately, as the text for an evangelistic sermon. The context, however, suggests that these words were not originally addressed to people who did not know the LORD ...read more

  • He Is Calling You By Name

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 13, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 13,220 views

    The call of God is what makes all the difference in our lives. We do not have to be on our death bed - or dying on a cross next to the Cross of Jesus - in order to hear His word of mercy.

    HE IS CALLING YOU BY NAME. 1 Samuel 3:1-10. The days of the Saviour-Judges were drawing to a close and, as in our own days, “the word of the LORD was rare” (1 Samuel 3:1). There was a dearth in the land, but not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the word of God ...read more

  • A. C. T. S. Of Solidarity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 9, 2013
    based on 9 ratings
     | 7,574 views

    Prayer, thanksgiving, confession and praise as community activities. Pass it on.

    A. C. T. S. OF SOLIDARITY. Isaiah 12. When I was coming to rebirth as a newborn Christian, I remember our Pastor sharing a well-known acrostic as a guideline for prayer. Thus, A.C.T.S. spells out the words: Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication. It is a familiar device which I even ...read more

  • Continuing The Work Of Christ

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,742 views

    The true worth of any ministry is discovered not in manufactured results, but in faithful service to the Lord.

    CONTINUING THE WORK OF CHRIST. Mark 6:1-13. The true worth of any ministry is discovered not in manufactured ‘results,’ but in faithful service to the Lord. Your quiet word to a friend in time of need or perplexity may be just as valuable - if not more so - as the clarion call of the gospel ...read more

  • For This I Came

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 12, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,377 views

    When Jesus said, To this end was I born, He was acknowledging His incarnation.

    FOR THIS I CAME. John 18:33-37. The interview between Pilate and Jesus paints a pathetic picture. The King of kings stood accused before the tribunal of an earthly governor. The prisoner appeared so unlike the usual kind of revolutionary that you could almost hear the scorn in the prefect’s ...read more

  • Follow My Leader

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 29, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,113 views

    Receive not the grace of God in vain.

    FOLLOW MY LEADER. 2 Corinthians 6:1-13. In his earlier letter, Paul had spoken of himself and others as ‘God’s fellow-workers’ (1 Corinthians 3:9). The word for “fellow-workers” gives us our English word, ‘synergy’, which speaks of a combined effort, a co-operation with God if you will. It ...read more

  • The Labourers In The Vineyard

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 30, 2014
    based on 7 ratings
     | 16,160 views

    An illustration of God's new order of things.

    THE LABOURERS IN THE VINEYARD. Matthew 20:1-16. This parable is part of Jesus’ response to Peter’s question: ‘Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?’ (cf. Matthew 19:27). This challenging part of the reply is framed with a formula concerning the ‘first’ ...read more

  • A Call To Unlimited Forgiveness

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 27, 2014
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,241 views

    The full extent of the law, versus the full extent of grace.

    A CALL TO UNLIMITED FORGIVENESS. Matthew 18:21-35. Peter’s question, “How many times shall I forgive my brother?” (MATTHEW 18:21) arises out of the context of church discipline (cf. Matthew 18:15-20). Perhaps the original grievance was resolved, between one brother and another. The brother was ...read more

  • Above, Yet Made A Form Below

    Contributed by Sterling Franklin on Jan 2, 2002
    based on 34 ratings
     | 3,329 views

    Even though Jesus was made Higher than angels, He came to earth as a human, a form below, so that He would be a proper High Priest and atonement for our sins. Praise the Lord!

    "Above, Yet Made a Form Below" By Sterling Franklin Hebrews 1:1-5 - 1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the ...read more

  • How Should We Respond To God's Long-Suffering

    Contributed by John Kapteyn on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 20 ratings
     | 5,815 views

    1. Have you ever thought about what our proper response should be to the long-suffering of God? There are grave consequences for failing to properly understand and respond to God’s great patience.

    1. Have you ever thought about what our proper response should be to the long-suffering of God? There are grave consequences for failing to properly understand and respond to God’s great patience. There is a limit to God’s patience. Many consciously or unconsciously abuse, neglect or fail to try to ...read more

  • When The Fish Went Manning Series

    Contributed by Jeffery Anselmi on Feb 6, 2004
    based on 26 ratings
     | 4,835 views

    This is #2 of 4 on the book of Jonah. Pain gets our attention. I orginially wrote this in 1999. I cannot remember where I got some of my material to give proper credit.

    INTRODUCTION  In the movie Pinocchio a kindly woodcutter named Geppetto is swallowed by a whale named Monstro. Inside the dark, damp belly of the whale, Geppetto sits for what seems like an eternity. Then one day the whale violently coughs, and the woodcutter is expelled from his watery ...read more
