Sickened by Sin, Comforted by God's Covenant

Psalm 38 takes us to the cross. It powerfully describes the experience of Christ, bearing our sin on the cross. It also warns us of the torment awaiting any who do not trust in Christ to bear their sin, and so have to bear it themselves in eternity.

The Authority of the Christ - Matthew 8:18-34

Matthew continues laying out the evidence of Jesus' unique authority - over his followers, over nature and over evil.

'He is the One who heals' - Matthew 8:1-17

Matthew lays out the evidence for Jesus' authority to teach and preach in the Sermon on the Mount (chs 5-7). He now lays out the evidence for Jesus' authority over sickness, evil and death. Jesus both speaks and acts as the Messiah promised in the Old Testament Scriptures.

"I Press On" - Philippians 3:12-16

The Christian life is a journey. No matter our age or stage, a healthy believer's attitude must always be to 'press on' - more of Christ to know, more scope for faith to grow!

How Not to Fret in a Wicked World (Pt 2) - Psalm 37:23-40

'Fret not,' says the psalmist. Easy for him to say? Not necessarily. King David faced a world of threats and trials, as did his greater son, the Lord Jesus. They minister to us in this psalm, explaining how it is that we can avoid fretting and worrying at the state our world is in.

How Not to Fret in a Wicked World (Pt 1) - Psalm 37:1-22

'Fret not,' says the psalmist. Easy for him to say? Not necessarily. King David faced a world of threats and trials, as did his greater son, the Lord Jesus. They minister to us in this psalm, explaining how it is that we can avoid fretting and worrying at the state our world is in.

Building Up to Deliverance - Exodus 6:9-7:7

Strictly speaking, parts of Exodus 5-7 don't move the story on. We know what's coming; why haven't we gotten to it?! Yet, build-up anticipates deliverance. These passages make unmistakably clear who God is and why he is about to do what he will do for his people.

'Now You Shall See What I Will Do' - Exodus 6:1-8

After Moses' initial disappointment at Pharaoh's refusal to let the people go, the LORD God reassures Moses that he will act to deliver his people - just as he had promised long ago to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, centuries beforehand. The Exodus is powerful proof that our God keeps his covenant promises, and is also a sign-post to the greater fulfilment of those promises in the coming of our Redeemer, Jesus Christ.

Why, Why, Why?! - Exodus 5:1-23

Moses obeys God - and everything seems to get worse. In this chapter we consider three questions, one each asked by Pharaoh, the Israelites and Moses. Like each of them we're often left asking, 'Why?'

God's Sovereignty in Salvation - Acts 8:26-40

God surprisingly sends Philip from Samaria - where there are new converts, the coming of the Holy Spirit and conflict with evil - to the desert. Yet there, in the desert, God had a single soul to whom Philip brought the gospel. God is sovereign over every single soul in salvation.
