"IN THE DAYS OF YOUR YOUTH"    May 3 Today we read the final chapter of Ecclesiastes which begins with the wise advice, “Remember … your  Creator in the days of your youth.”  The Hebrew word for “Remember” is sometimes translated as  “mindful” eg Psa 8 v.4 – that God is “mindful” of human beings!. How “full” are our minds of our  Creator in our youth?  &nbsp...

Today we read about the cities of refuge which were set up to protect someone who killed a person accidently. But if it was not an accident and was murder which was committed, the murderer would not be allowed in the city and be at the mercy of the avenger of blood to “purge the guilt of innocent blood from Israel” (Deut. 19:13). The principal of the cities of refuge ironically really comes out in...

“NOT TO ALL THE PEOPLE” May 2 These days so many strive to convince themselves there is no God. We pondered the fact that God does not make it abundantly evident that he exists. If he did there would be no need for faith, no need to search out what is the real cause of human existence. These thoughts arose as we read of the conversion of Cornelius, the Roman Centurion, in Acts ch. 10, a man whose...

Going Blind is a Real Eye Opener It’s not very easy to admit you’re wrong. In fact, sometimes you need something very dramatic to happen in your life to have your eyes opened, and that’s what happened to Saul of Tarsus on the road to Damascus. He was made blind so that he might see that he was on completely the wrong path. And that was despite the absolute certainty in his mind that he was right a...

BEHOLD HE IS PRAYING”   May 1 How full of zeal Paul was - as a result of his human perceptions of what really mattered in life –  a zeal which had two sides!  One was self exaltation and the praise of his fellow men who agreed  with his cause – the other side – was to destroy this movement which was threatening the authority  of the powerful Jewish Priesthood. Paul was an...

The first verse of our reading today in Acts 8 tells us “Saul approved of his [Stephen’s] execution.” He was there when Stephen was stoned to death, but didn’t physically join in the execution, instead “the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul” (Acts 7:58). But even though Saul didn’t throw any of the stones, the fact that he approved of his death makes him guil...

Every Monday Paul Cresswell will read a new episode from his beautiful new book – a Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles. With his marvellous English voice Paul makes this audio book such easy listening and so thoroughly engaging – you will be anxiously waiting for the next episode … Every Monday!

It was Sir John Dalberg-Acton who uttered the famous phrase “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men..." Which makes me think of today’s readings, the trial of Stephen and the extreme injustice he received at the hands of men in a position of power and authority. Think about what happened to this man of “good repute, full of the...

"DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE READING?"  April 30 This was the question the Ethiopian Eunuch asked Philip; he was one of the seven appointed to assist the 12 disciples (Acts 6 v.2,4); Stephen who was killed was also one of them. “An angel of the Lord” (8 v.26) caused Philip to go up and meet with this Ethiopian as he was returning from worshipping in Jerusalem .(v.28} which shows he was a g...

The speaker looks at this very interesting subject.

One of the reasons why God puts us through trials is for us to develop empathy with others. In Deuteronomy 15 the principle is explained in the law about how Israelites were to treat their slaves. During the year of release, they were to “let him go free from you, you shall not let him go empty-handed. You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, out of your threshing floor, and out of your...

“REMEMBER THE DAY  April 29 We all have memories; bad things we try to shut out of our memory, good things we try to retain and bring to the fore.  We read today how Moses told the people to look back on; “all the days of your life (that) you may remember the day when you came out of the land of Egypt” [Deut. 16 v.3]  The Passover Feast was set up to aid that memory, to cement it in...

In Acts 4 we read of a prayer which helps us understand how God works with us. It begins in verse 24 with “Sovereign Lord” and what follows is a prayer displaying the apostles’ complete trust in the power and wisdom of God. They’ve just experienced persecution at the hands of the authorities but they put it all down to God being in control of the situation and continued to “speak the word of God w...

“WHAT IS BETTER”  April 29 Solomon’s reminiscences in Ecclesiastes are in one sense a continuation of Proverbs.  Several times in today’s chapter (7) he contemplates ways of living and asks “ What is better?” and makes observations which do not always provide a clear answer, but they do provoke our thinking. The chapter begins, “A good name is better than precious ointment” which leads u...

In this week's edition of the webinar we examine the miraculous prophecies concerning the scattering and regathering of the Jews.   The unlikely establishment of the nation of Israel in their ancient homeland provides proof of God's existence.   We also examine the first sign of John, where Jesus turns water into wine to illustrate the means of asking questions to better compre...
