The message of Amos is pre-eminently a message of new life. The message, however, comes in the context of a nation under judgement. Israel hid the emptiness and godlessness of a corrupt society behind an apathetic and nominal outward religion, like so many today.God's view of our society is revealed in Amos in no uncertain terms. While no refuge is offered for those who reject or disregard God's will, shining through the gloom most brightly is the precious gift of new life through faith in God's Saviour, his Son Jesus Christ.

Jonah's reluctance to go is mirrored in many churches today but this book reminds us that no erroneous attitude and no distance should stand in the way of God's people doing God's work in God's power. His commands are to be obeyed and the result left to him. And while all the prophets of the Old Testament are milestones along the road to Calvary, the prophecy of Jonah opens a special window on the New Testament age, when the Lord Jesus Christ would be proclaimed to all the ends of the earth.

Jonah: Preacher on The Run (Welwyn Commentary Series)

The true consequences of rebellion against the Lord are shown. There is no glamor in the Bible s representation of sin. Saul clings to his sins and perishes. But the gospel shines through too. Samuel and David cleave to the Lord and are clothed with robes of redemption. The reader is pointed to the victory of Christ, the true King of whom David is only a picture, who is saving his people from their sins this very day.

1 Samuel: Dawn of The Kingdom (Welwyn Commentary Series)

The epistle of James is a manual for practical godliness. Everything is here, including facing trials, blaming God for misfortunes, snobbery, sharp tongues, faith and works, squabbling in churches, worldliness and the use of money. In this searching and straightforward commentary, Gordon Keddie confronts the reader with a challenge to apply James message to our hearts and put it into practice in our lives.

James: Practice Makes Perfect (Welwyn Commentary Series)

The history of David - the unfolding drama of 2 Samuel - gives us a slice of life in the real world. We see people in their true colours: the petty, selfish, murderous, yet fiercely loyal, Joab; the war-lord Abner, honourable, perhaps, but only when it suited him; the sad, incompetent Ish-Bosheth, alone and palely loitering through his hundrum colourless life; and the miserable and vicious sons of Rimmon, who murdered Ish-Bosheth in his sleep.

Numbers: According To Promise (Welwyn Commentary Series)

Christians have always found the book of Acts to be enjoyable, exciting and encouraging. Here we find our own 'roots' as the followers of Jesus and learn what it means to be citizens of heaven while living upon the earth. If the Gospels tell us what the gospel is, Acts tells us what the gospel does. The author keeps the exposition readable and practical drawing us to lift our hearts to Jesus, our Saviour and King. Acts is first and foremost the history of the work of the Holy Spirit in the church. It brings together two great promises of 'another Counsellor', who would lead the disciples into all truth and the Great Commission to preach the gospel to the whole world in the assurance that he would be with them always, 'to the very end of the age'. Acts is also the record of costly campaigning against a fiercely resistant enemy, over the eternal destiny of lost men and women. The sounds of battle echo from almost every scene. But so also does the scent of victory, as lives are changed and the light of Christ spreads from nation to nation! As the book of Acts closes, the work still goes on. The fulfilment of Christ's commission continues today as his followers take up the unfinished task: 'You will be my witnesses ...to the ends of the earth.'

Acts (Welwyn Commentary Series)

The Gospel of John has fascinated readers for centuries. Fully in accord with the other three gospels, it nevertheless grips the imagination from it's opening words, rooting the story of our Savior in eternity with the words which also ope Genesis: In the beginning...As the author says, "Like no other book of the Bible, the Fourth Gospel contains the entire message of God's Word in microcosm. It takes us from eternity to eternity and shows the centrality of Jesus Christ to our lives, to human history and to the meaning of the cosmos itself. For that reason, it must be at the very core of the preaching and evangelistic ministry of the Christian church. People need to hear and understand the message of the cross as expounded in John." Gordon Keddie preached through the Gospel several times in the course of his long pastoral ministry, resulting in an expository commentary that will prove helpful not only to preachers, but to all who want to be gripped and moulded by the brilliance and clarity of this marvelous Gospel and the Savior it so winsomely proclaims.
