Introduction We began to study the book of Hebrews last Sunday evening, when we spent our time on the first four verses of chapter 1, where the author teaches us about the one who is Son. And the author made clear that the one who is Son is greater than the Old Testament prophets and … Continue reading Hebrews 01(05–15)

Matthew 05(21–30)
Introduction In the verses we studied last week the Lord Jesus made clear that he had not come to abolish the Law or Prophets, but to fulfil them. And one of the ways he fulfilled the Law and the Prophets was by explaining to his people how to interpret the Old Testament properly. And we … Continue reading Matthew 05(21–30)
Malachi 03(13)–04(06)
Introduction This morning we came to the end of Paul's second letter to Timothy and we studied together Paul's last written words. This evening we've come to the end of the book of Malachi, which is also the end of the Old Testament. And the Old Testament ends with the announcement that the day of … Continue reading Malachi 03(13)–04(06)
Hebrews 01(01–04)
Introduction This evening we're beginning a series on the book of Hebrews, which is a kind of letter. It may not seem like a letter from the opening verses; and the opening of Hebrews is very unlike the opening of Titus which we read this morning. Titus began with Paul referring to himself as the … Continue reading Hebrews 01(01–04)
Titus 01(01–04)
Introduction We began to study Paul's pastoral letters near the end of last year; and last week we reached the end of 2 Timothy. And it makes sense to me that we should go on now and complete the pastoral letters by studying Paul's letter to Titus. 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus are known … Continue reading Titus 01(01–04)
Matthew 05(17–20)
Introduction Just as the Israelites gathered at Mount Sinai to receive the law from the Lord, so the disciples have gathered at a mountain to receive the law from the Lord Jesus Christ. And as their Lawgiver, he's able to teach his people how to live here on earth as members of his heavenly kingdom. … Continue reading Matthew 05(17–20)
Malachi 02(17)–03(12)
Introduction The book of Malachi consists of six complaints which the Lord brought before his people through the prophet Malachi. So far, we've studied three of the complaints. In the first, the Lord complained that his people did not appreciate his love for them. And he did love them. After all, hadn't he chosen them … Continue reading Malachi 02(17)–03(12)
Malachi 02(10–16)
Introduction God sent Malachi to preach to his people some time after they had returned from exile and after they had rebuilt the temple in Jerusalem. And from what Malachi said to them, it's clear that their love for the Lord had waned. And, like the people before the exile, they had become unfaithful to … Continue reading Malachi 02(10–16)
2 Timothy 04(09–22)
Introduction We've reached the end of Paul's second letter to Timothy and the Bible scholars think that this is Paul's last surviving letter. Although Titus comes next in our Bibles, the scholars believe Paul wrote his letter to Titus before his second letter to Timothy. And so, this is Paul's last surviving letter and the … Continue reading 2 Timothy 04(09–22)
Two Ages (2018)
Introduction This morning we were thinking about the three resurrections: There's the Lord's bodily resurrection which took place in the past on the first Easter Sunday when the Lord Jesus, who had died on the cross, was raised from the grave on the third day. Then there's the believer's bodily resurrection which will take place … Continue reading Two Ages (2018)
