     | 3,241 views

    To succeed in life, we must learn how to lose with dignity. Analyzing our setbacks and developing our skills helps us identify our weaknesses. Success isn't about winning but learning from our failures, which helps build character and achieve victory.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Philippians 3:7-8) [7] "But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ." [8] "Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ ...read more

     | 2,024 views

    Why should we number our days? (Material adapted from an article in Pulpit Helps and from Elad Nehorai at: https://endoflifewa.org/news/6-reasons-you-should-be-thinking-more-about-death/) (Also handed out Five Wishes from Aging with Dignity- order at: FiveWishes.org)

    The Final Call proclaims God’s everlasting gospel, unmasks deception, and anchors believers in worship, resurrection hope, and patient endurance until Christ’s return.

    God’s Last Word Is Gospel We all know that in life, the last word carries weight.

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 43 – Princes Were Abused And Young Men Forced Into Harsh Servitude By Ruthless Babylon - Lamentations 5:12-13 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 10, 2025
     | 162 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
