    The Ten Commandments

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 12, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,823 views

    In the LORD's schoolroom, the pass-mark is 100% - so contemplating the Law of God, summarily comprehended in the Ten Commandments, should drive us to Christ as our only hope!

    THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. Exodus 20:1-17. The first thing that we notice about the Ten Commandments is that they are the words of God (Exodus 20:1). Secondly we notice that the LORD is the God who has redeemed us (Exodus 20:2). It is not the keeping of the Ten Commandments which saves us: salvation ...read more

    Pursuing The Mark

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 20, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,346 views

    Paul the persecutor was turned into Paul the pursuer. The Christian life is not static, but vigorously active.

    PURSUING THE MARK. Philippians 3:4-14. The starter’s line for this passage is the Apostle Paul’s polemic against false teachers, whose confidence lies in the flesh (Philippians 3:2-4). “The flesh” here represents self-help religion, which stands contrary to the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. ...read more

     | 5,253 views

    Increasing faith, growing love, patient endurance, fulfilling God's good pleasure...

    A CELEBRATION OF SPIRITUAL MATURITY. 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12. INTRODUCTION 1. Pauline Authorship (2 Thessalonians 1:1). 2. In/ from/ according to “God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Thessalonians 1:1; 2 Thessalonians 1:2; 2 Thessalonians 1:12). 3. Greeting: “Grace and peace” (2 ...read more

    End Times Obedience

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 17, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,836 views

    How to live in the in-between times.

    END TIMES OBEDIENCE. Romans 13:11-14. Context: Romans 12:1-15:13 is the practical application of the statement “The just shall live by faith” established so thoroughly in Romans 1-8. Those who have been made righteous through faith are not to live any longer in the ways of the world, but to be ...read more

    An Indoor-Outdoor Spiritual Barbeque

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 14, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,986 views

    A damning indictment against stubborn unbelief, and a shocking redefining of 'family'...

    AN INDOOR-OUTDOOR SPIRITUAL BARBEQUE. Mark 3:20-35. Belief crowds in towards Jesus, oblivious of walls (oblivious of the roof on one occasion), in the hope of a healing touch (Mark 3:20). Unbelief stands outside, questioning Jesus’ sanity. Some well-meaning acquaintances of Jesus wanted to ...read more

    The Garden

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,729 views

    Man in the image of God, man in the Garden.

    THE GARDEN. Genesis 2:4-25. In Genesis 1 we saw Creation from the cosmological viewpoint of God. The expression “These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth” in Genesis 2:4 links the seeming remoteness of God in the earlier account with the intimacy of the Garden, viewing Creation ...read more

    The Truest Freedom

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 23, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,001 views

    We are set free - to the truest kind of liberty.

    THE TRUEST FREEDOM. Galatians 5:1; Galatians 5:13-25. Paul established the contrast between bondage and freedom by the use of an allegory concerning Hagar and Sarah, and their respective sons (Galatians 4:22). When we are born into this world, we are born into bondage to the corruption of ...read more

    Grace Amid Judgment

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 9, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,531 views

    Grace cannot be silenced, even in the face of judgment.

    GRACE AMID JUDGMENT. Hosea 1:2-10. This is ‘the word of the LORD that came to Hosea, son of Beeri’ (Hosea 1:1). The name Hosea, like Hoshea, Joshua, Jeshua and Jesus is derived from the verb ‘to save’. Hosea, like his contemporary Amos, prophesied to the northern kingdom of Israel during the ...read more

    Jesus, The Man Of Sorrows

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 20, 2016
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,133 views

    Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same Scripture, and preached unto him Jesus (Acts 8:35).

    JESUS, THE MAN OF SORROWS. Isaiah 52:13-53:12 – Fourth Servant Song. 1. The introduction to this prophecy of the Passion of Jesus begins not with His humiliation, but with His exaltation (Isaiah 52:13). The letter to the Hebrews speaks of Jesus, ‘who for the joy that was set before Him endured ...read more

    Two Mindsets, Two Roads, Two Destinies

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 5, 2016
    based on 16 ratings
     | 9,117 views

    The present state of the believer is one of hope.

    TWO MINDSETS, TWO ROADS, TWO DESTINIES. Romans 8:6-11. This short passage describes two states of mind: literally, “the mind of the flesh (which is) death”; and “the mind of the Spirit (which is) life and peace” (Romans 8:6). These are two quite distinct mindsets, which lead to two differing ...read more

    The Call Of Wisdom

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 23, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,159 views

    Make me an offer I can't refuse!

    THE CALL OF WISDOM. Proverbs 9:1-6. Even before she invited us, Lady Wisdom “built her house” (Proverbs 9:1). The hewing out of Lady Wisdom’s “seven pillars” speaks of completeness (unlike the ‘folly’ in Edinburgh which was never completed), spaciousness, and endurance. ‘I go to prepare a ...read more

    A State Of Being Which Gives Rise To Activity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 18, 2016
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,591 views

    A Christian perspective on Torah.

    A STATE OF BEING WHICH GIVES RISE TO ACTIVITY. Psalm 119:1-8. We begin our study of the selected passage with the observation that the word for “blessed” is not a verb, but a noun. It is a state of being, not an activity. We are “blessed” not because “we walk in the law of the LORD”; but rather ...read more

    We Do Not Lose Heart

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 15, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,987 views

    While God is preparing us for this house, Jesus is preparing this house for us.

    WE DO NOT LOSE HEART. 2 Corinthians 4:13-5:1. The first thing that strikes us about this passage is the continuity between the Old Testament and the New. Paul finds his warrant to preach embedded in the book of Psalms: ‘I believed, therefore I spoke. I am greatly afflicted’ (Psalm 116:10). ...read more

    A Hard Calling

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 12, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,074 views

    It is hard preaching to hard heads and hard hearts.

    A HARD CALLING. Ezekiel 2:1-5. In times gone by, and in certain places and professions still, it was taken for granted that children would follow in the trade of their fathers. James and John, the sons of Zebedee, would have known from an early age that they were going to be fishermen. ...read more

    Hope Amid Hopelessness

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 17, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,057 views

    God is good, and all things work together for good.

    HOPE AMID HOPELESSNESS. Lamentations 3:19-26. It is all too easy to forget that these words of hope and encouragement have been drawn out of the midst of the Book of Lamentations. Jeremiah penned these among the ashes of Jerusalem, a city once known as ‘the joy of the whole earth’ (Psalm ...read more
