Jesus: A First Century Jew
24/04/2026 | 32 mins.
Come and meet the real Jesus, as depicted within his time and cultural setting. We will meet a man of his time, looking and sounding and behaving as a man of his time would be expected to. He becomes ever more real to us as our preconceptions of that shampoo-advert-Jesus fall away. And our relationship with him may become more personal because we now see him as a rounded relatable figure with emotions much like ours And that has to be a good thing, moving from knowing about him, to knowing him.
The Sacred Work of Letting Go
24/04/2026 | 18 mins.
How do we deal with the cognitive dissonance between the violent, retributive warmongering God of the OT and the NT non-violent Son of God who is full of mercy and grace? Learning to let go of the inaccurate theological doctrine that we have been inadvertently raised with, and reading the Bible through the historic and cultural lenses in which it was written, is faith renewing and freeing.
The Eclipse of Christ by Israel
24/04/2026 | 24 mins.
Jesus is the True Vine and not Israel. Choosing Jesus over natural Israel is not an academic exercise: it has real world consequences. We can only be fruitful through him. We must be fruitful; not in the desire to become ‘management’ in the Kingdom; or in seeking to understand all prophecy, all mysteries and all knowledge; but through simplicity, in bearing the fruit of the Spirit. This is the life that Jesus wants us to enter now.
Teaching in Parables
24/04/2026 | 34 mins.
This article explores the teaching of Jesus through his use of parables. Jesus taught in both synagogues and the Temple, as well as out in the countryside. He answered questions, corrected misunderstandings, made full use of the the Old Testament, enacted parables, told short stories and also fully fledged parables. Many people understood his teachings and became disciples: while some understood and therefore wanted to kill him. Jesus taught ‘doctrines’, which are central to the Christian faith, through the use of parables and these teachings apply to us today.
Why I Am a Christian
28/02/2026 | 29 mins.
“Would you still be a Christian if you found out that there was no future Kingdom after your death?” This life is not all about “getting to the Kingdom” it’s a lot about trying to be more like Jesus in everything we do, which makes life so dynamic and worthwhile. This life is not a “Waiting Room”, it’s a “Living Room”. The grace God has given me elicits a response from me: activities which show my gratitude to the one who created me. I realise I am beautifully and wonderfully made. I want to make Him happy because of what He has done for me. I know that I have been given an amazing opportunity to give the Great Creator tremendous pleasure -in this life - and I want to grasp that prospect.

About Press On Journal

Press On is a Christadelphian journal. We publish engaging perspectives, expressed with enthusiasm and love for other believers. Press On aspires to stimulate growth in the Christadelphian community by helping it draw strength from its diversity, following the spirit of 1 Cor 12, and Rom 12 — one body, made up of different parts, all of whom are dependent on each other. As in the first century, our community of faith can benefit from both progressive and traditional perspectives so long as they are explored compassionately and without factionalism. That is what we are trying to do. As a listener of Press On, you may come across perspectives you have not encountered before. Some topics you may immediately resonate with and be thrilled by. Others you might disagree with. Our goal is that either way, you come away without feeling talked down to and with something worth considering.
