  • Behold, I Am Doing A New Thing

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 20, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 18,730 views

    Remember not the former things...

    BEHOLD, I AM DOING A NEW THING! Isaiah 43:18-25. The first point of application for the prophecies of Isaiah 1-35 is the contemporary Assyrian threat, which is finally resolved in the narrative of Isaiah 36-37. After King Hezekiah’s sickness in Isaiah 38 - and the miraculous turning back of the ...read more

  • The Unity Of Hope

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2013
    based on 10 ratings
     | 8,464 views

    The Christ child as the hope of the nations.

    THE UNITY OF HOPE. Romans 15:4-13. In many respects we might view Romans 14:1 to Romans15:13 as the practical outworking of the Jewish/Gentile debate of Romans 9 to 11. There was some dissension in Rome over matters of food and drink, and holy days. It is quite probable that it was a question of ...read more

  • Nineveh

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 29, 2013
    based on 13 ratings
     | 7,608 views

    The LORD is merciful to those who repent.

    NINEVEH. Jonah 3. The LORD has a case against cities and nations which are full of wickedness (Jonah 1:2) It was not God who brought evil upon mankind, but man himself. No doubt man was created with free will, but he chose to disobey God. From that point on man's will remains free, but only ...read more

  • Parable Of The Great Supper.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 24, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,387 views

    It is not only an invitation, but also a command.

    PARABLE OF THE GREAT SUPPER. Luke 14:15-24. LUKE 14:15. “Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God,” remarked one of the guests sitting at table with Jesus. How sincere the remark was we may only conjecture: but it is, on the surface, a true enough sentiment. But it is one thing ...read more

  • You Must Be Born Again. Abridged.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 5, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,532 views

    The need for faith, the need for rebirth.

    YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN. John 3:1-17. Nicodemus was a member of the strictest sect of the Jews: the Pharisees. No doubt he sought to keep all the man-made rules of his religion, as well as the law of God which was given to Moses. Nicodemus was a religious man; an upright man; a leader; a teacher; ...read more

  • Twelve Years Of Suffering, And Twelve Years Of Life

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 2, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,469 views

    A woman healed, a child raised from the dead. Application.

    TWELVE YEARS OF SUFFERING, AND TWELVE YEARS OF LIFE. Mark 5:21-43. In this particular section Mark presents us with a ‘story within a story’ – and, as you might expect with such a literary device, there are both similarities and dissimilarities. First of all, we have the not unusual picture of ...read more

  • A Pharisee And The Sinner

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 24, 2016
    based on 9 ratings
     | 10,733 views

    Jesus contrasts two men, and two attitudes in prayer.

    A PHARISEE AND “THE” SINNER. Luke 18:9-14. Jesus had just told His disciples a parable to encourage them to importunity in prayer (Luke 18:1). Now He turned back to the Pharisees (cf. Luke 17:20-21) to warn them, and those like them, against despising others and approaching God in a ...read more

  • A Prayerful Advocate For Those Who Groan

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 9, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,741 views

    The Holy Spirit as first-fruits, and efficacious intercessor.

    A PRAYERFUL ADVOCATE FOR THOSE WHO GROAN. Romans 8:22-27. There are several references to the Holy Spirit in Romans 8. He is named at least nineteen times in the first twenty-seven verses. This serves to contrast the weakness of ‘the law of sin and death’ (discussed at length in Romans 7), with ...read more

  • A Storm At Sea, And A Question Of Jesus' Identity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 25, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,910 views

    How can Jesus sleep on in calm and peaceful repose when chaos, fear, disorder, panic and confusion are all around? Does He not care?

    “WHO IS THIS?” Mark 4:35-41. There is an old joke that asks why the chicken crossed the road? The answer is obvious: to get to the other side. I suppose the same could be said of crossing the sea, crossing to the other side of the world, or crossing to a region such as the territory of the ...read more

  • Teaching Through Healing

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 22, 2015
    based on 15 ratings
     | 6,710 views

    To be amazed is not the same as being converted.

    TEACHING THROUGH HEALING. Mark 1:21-28. As we re-read Mark’s Gospel - as we must, from time to time - we find it to be a Gospel of two halves. The first half tells of Jesus’ presentation to the people as an authoritative teacher (Mark 1:21-22), who also happened to use healing (or more ...read more

  • A Scourge Of Small Cords

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 14, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,900 views

    The righteous indignation of Messiah at the desecration of the Court of the Gentiles.

    A SCOURGE OF SMALL CORDS. John 2:13-22. It was Passover, and the city of Jerusalem was packed with pilgrims who had gathered to commemorate Israel’s deliverance out of slavery in Egypt. Not only was it a solemn religious celebration, but also a great national statement that defied all who would ...read more

  • Famous Last Words

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 1, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,760 views

    It is the everlasting covenant that gives David the courage to hope. Man may fail, but God will not. The covenant is set in place by God, and guaranteed by God.

    FAMOUS LAST WORDS. 2 Samuel 23:1-7. The Bible sometimes permits us to listen in on the death-bed words of a dying saint. We hear Jacob blessing his sons. We hear Moses blessing the twelve tribes. We are interested also to hear the seven last sayings of Jesus from the Cross. In the passage ...read more

  • Teach Me Your Stautes

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 9, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,259 views

    How to keep our ways pure.

    TEACH ME YOUR STATUTES. Psalm 119:9-16. The question is posed: “How shall a young man keep His way pure?” (Psalm 119:9a). Before we look at the answer, we might consider who this young man is? The Psalmist seems to be putting himself, and us, in the position of the son (i.e. student) in Proverbs ...read more

  • This Pilgrim Way.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 17, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,569 views

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

    THIS PILGRIM WAY. Psalm 84:1-12. At the end of the celebration of Passover, in Jewish homes scattered throughout the world, the parting toast is, ‘Next year in Jerusalem!’ The sentiment echoes a common consciousness, a restlessness if you will, which is forever drawing God’s people back ...read more

  • Sing Forth His Glory.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 3, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,506 views

    The exodus of the children of Israel is a testimony to the works of the Lord, and points forward to our redemption in Christ.

    SING FORTH HIS GLORY. Psalm 66:1-9. The superscription to this Psalm is addressed, “To the chief musician. A Song or Psalm.” Whether sung or spoken, it is a call to all nations to “Make a joyful noise” to God (Psalm 66:1). Which God? Well, compare Psalm 100:1, where YHWH, ‘the LORD’ is ...read more
