    James 5 has a lot to say about the rich and the proper response to abuse by those who are powerful. His wise words are clear and firm, making the path of faith obvious. He pulls no punches.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 10, 2025
     | 223 views

    The description of horrible conditions continues, this time with degrading action against the princes, and terrible forced labour upon the young men. A conquering army often forces humiliation on the defeated people and treats them terribly. Symptomatic of a sinful world.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 43 – PRINCES WERE ABUSED AND YOUNG MEN FORCED INTO HARSH SERVITUDE BY RUTHLESS BABYLON - Lamentations 5:12-13 The subject matter of Lamentations is not pleasant in most of its content, which is probably why it is rarely preached on, or taught. Here in chapter 5 we ...read more
