    Confess And Believe

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 21, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,962 views

    Made righteous through the righteousness of Jesus, which we receive by faith in Him. Whoever believes in Jesus shall not be ashamed. Whoever calls upon His name will be saved. Sincere faith leads to public confession of Christ.

    CONFESS AND BELIEVE. Romans 10:9. According to a Roman historian, the Emperor Claudius ordered all the Jews to leave Rome after public disorders caused by the preaching of the claims of Jesus Christ in the synagogues. This fact is echoed in the Scriptures, where we find the Jewish Christian ...read more

    Bridling The Tongue

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,920 views

    The same tongue which responds to God’s manifest glories by blessing His holy name also denigrates the poor - the widow, the orphan, and the resident alien - who, like us, are made in His image.

    BRIDLING THE TONGUE. James 3:1-12. “If anyone thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is vain” (James 1:26). James 3:1. James begins his elucidation of this text with a warning against seeking pre-eminence amongst the brethren. This ...read more

    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

    A new exodus: the voice of joy.

    A SONG OF CONSOLATION. Jeremiah 31:7-14. Jeremiah envisages a time of rebuilding for all Israel (Jeremiah 31:4).

    The Ten Commandments

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 12, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,826 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
     | 12,348 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

    A Kingdom That Cannot Be Shaken

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 3, 2013
    based on 12 ratings
     | 7,983 views

    The contrast between Mount Sinai and Mount Zion: its inferences and implications in our life.

    A KINGDOM THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN. Hebrews 12:18-29. I. A BOOK OF CONTRASTS. The letter to the Hebrews is full of contrasts - too many to innumerate in a short space. Here the author shows the difference between the covenant at Sinai (Hebrews 12:18-21), and the covenant of Christianity (Hebrews ...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

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 23, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,160 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

    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,989 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
     | 6,079 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

    Expectations For Godly Living-1

    Contributed by Byron Sherman on Mar 21, 2023
     | 1,777 views

    1 of 6. Titus was exhorted by the apostle Paul, to expose God’s people to the expectations for godly living. All God’s people are answerable to His expectations for godly living. But, What are some expectations for godly living by God’s people?

    EXPECTATIONS For GODLY LIVING-I—Titus 2:1-15 Attention: Use Your Elbows: A Grandmother was giving directions to her grown grandson who was coming with his wife, to visit her for the first time in her new place: She told him, “You come to the front door of the apartment complex.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 23, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,007 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

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,532 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
