    The Conundrum of Job's Children

    19/06/2026 | 31 mins.
    The book of Job throws up many theological, moral, and linguistic questions. For the purposes of this article, the author is assuming that the book of Job is a poetic and dramatic portrayal of the story of a faithful man in adversity. This assumption does not diminish its truth; rather, it clarifies the kind of truth the book is about. Using scholarly works and personal study, the author discusses the question: what actually happened to Job’s children?

    A Lighter Tread on the Earth

    19/06/2026 | 26 mins.
    This article is a call to action for us to take being stewards of God’s creation seriously by looking afresh at what it means to ‘rule’ and ‘care’ for the earth. Instead of simply waiting for the future Kingdom, we are urged to consider making lifestyle changes today that will lessen the negative impact humans are having on the earth we have been blessed to live upon. Practical suggestions are made for both individuals and ecclesias to embrace as we endeavor to live more sustainably.

    The Historical Jesus: The Rabbi

    19/06/2026 | 35 mins.
    Let’s meet the real Rabbi Jesus. This first century figure was unexceptional in his appearance and way of life until he began his ministry, and it was then he showed himself as fundamentally radical, revolutionary and extraordinary. He stirred people up, and he still has the ability to disturb and change us if we’re willing to spend the time looking and listening to him; to see beyond our own image of him and our preconceptions to the real Jesus.

    The Eclipse of Christ by Scripture

    19/06/2026 | 27 mins.
    Are we more in love with the Bible as the word of God than we are with the Lord Jesus Christ himself? This article draws a distinction between the living "word of God"—God's contemporary revelation that challenges and changes us—and "scripture," the archived record that we are too easily tempted to venerate and manipulate in its place. Jesus is presented as the Word made flesh, God's final and unmistakable revelation, greater than the prophets and the Old Covenant that pointed toward him. We are challenged to recognise that the scriptures are a signpost testifying to Christ, not a substitute for coming to him; so we must ask whether we are "Bibladelphians" or Christadelphians.

    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.

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.
