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

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

The Thief Came To Steal...and The Thieves Are In The Pulpits!

Contributed by Mark H. Stevens Thd on Apr 6, 2018

Why Do Christian Preachers teach an Old Covenant practice that only applied to Israel and the care of the Levites that didn't have a land inheritance?

"Will a man ROB God?" How many untold tens of thousands of men will give account one day for teaching this verse in Malachi 3:8 totally out of context for their own sordid gain. I couldn’t count the times I have heard self-appointed ministers of the gospel berate their congregations and listeners ...read more

Preach For Free? Must Be Crazy!

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Feb 24, 2017

People say preachers are in it for the money, but if one comes just ready to preach for free they think you are nuts. Where's the win-win? ;-)

Ever since I have been saved, I have heard that "Preachers are only in it for the money." My first pastor was driving a twelve-year-old car, raising four kids on a salary that was equal to what my father-in-law was paying in weekly taxes. Admittedly, when you look at the lifestyles of ...read more

Paul's Authority (Galatians 1)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 16, 2024

From where did Paul get his authority? What about independent preachers today? Let's look at Galatians 1.

Who was Paul? Why did Peter recognize his authority? Did he contradict or complement the teachings of Jesus about the law? Is there a difference between physical and spiritual circumcision? What defines true righteousness, the letter of the law or faith? How do we receive the Holy Spirit, by doing ...read more

The Message Of The Resurrection

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 21, 2022

When a preacher preaches on the gospel of Christ, he is not preaching on ONE of the most important messages of the Bible, He is preaching THE MOST IMPORTANT message of the Bible.

THE MESSAGE OF THE RESURRECTION is the most important message in the Word of God. Some of the clearest scripture concerning salvation, shows that belief in the resurrection of Christ is necessary if one is to be saved. • Romans 10:9 states, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the ...read more

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jan 2, 2021

We are surely walking in the last days as we see mass media and public opinion sway to the point of eroding the very foundations of truth on which our faith and trust have have stood. We need the light of many candles to expose the evil plan birthed in fear and worry.

Freedom: Devotion Or Devouring?

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 11, 2007

Black History Month and Amazing Grace Sunday: there is much to celebrate about freedom, when we review history. But we either devote ourselves to freedom (political, social, spiritual) or we devour ourselves. Newton’s story illustrates. Montgomery Hill

It’s a glorious thing to discover that you are free. Freedom tastes good, smells good, feels good. But after you find out you are free, then what? What do you do with your freedom? There are only two answers to that question: freedom either leads you to devotion; or it drives you to devour. ...read more
