2025晨鐘課-每天,都是新的起點 以歷史智慧滋養生活,點亮2025每一天! 借鑑過去,活在當下,展望未來! 粵語廣播網站 (時兆出版社授權錄製) https://soundcloud.com/mediahk Podcast@靈修廣播站 8月8日 自負 所以,自己以為站得穩的,須要謹慎,免得跌倒。 哥林多前書 10:12 有些人知道怎樣登上成功的階梯,卻不知道如何走下來。阿爾文.托夫勒(Alvin Tffler,1928–2016)曾警告說:「沒有什麼比昨天的成功更危險的。」 阿隆佐.鐘斯(Alonzo T. Jones,1850–1923)接受了復臨信仰,並於1874年8月8日在華盛頓州瓦拉瓦拉受洗。1878年,他被按立為牧師,成了一位大有影響力的思想領袖。他與埃萊特.瓦格納(Ellet J. Waggoner)一起,在1888年明尼阿波利斯舉行的全球總會代表大會並其後期,在宣講因信稱義的真理上扮演了重要角色。但後來,他與約翰.凱洛格醫生(John H. Kellogg)沆瀣一氣,不但變得自負,還在1901年之後表現出反對教會組織的苦毒之情。鐘斯總是不遺餘力地想要破壞總會會長亞瑟.丹尼爾斯(Arthur G. Daniells)的領導地位。 早在1892年9月19日,懷愛倫就曾表示:「鐘斯長老或瓦格納長老很有可能被仇敵的試探所勝;然而即使這樣,也不能證明他們沒有來自上帝的信息,或者他們所做的工作完全錯了。」可惜,缺乏謙卑精神的他們無法活出他們曾向成千上萬之人傳講的真理。最終,凱洛格、瓦格納和鐘斯三人都離開了教會。 1907年,教會要求鐘斯交還牧師證,次年他被逐出教會。他要求在1909年華盛頓特區舉行的總會大會上召開聽證會。在大會上他發表了長篇演講,旨在自我辯解和控訴,並與教會主要領袖進行三次會面。最後,在與會人員不斷呼籲和解之後,總會主席丹尼爾斯伸出手說:「來吧,鐘斯弟兄,來吧。」鐘斯起身緩緩伸出手,又突然收回說:「不,決不!」之後再次坐下。鐘斯此後並沒有重新加入教會。 比好的開始更重要的是好的結束。驕傲和自負都要付上高昂的代價。如果鐘斯心存謙卑,對上帝藉著他所成就的一切心懷感恩,他的人生本可以有不同的結局。 #媒體佈道部 #港澳區會 #聲音書 #時兆出版社 #每天,都是新的起點 #本書由時兆出版社授權刊載

John joins Paul Coleman, John Steenhof and Kristen Waggoner for a powerful discussion on the state of religious freedom in the West. Together, they explore the rise of hate speech laws, the weaponisation of anti-discrimination regimes, the erosion of conscience rights, and the emergence of a new secular orthodoxy that punishes dissent. Drawing on major legal cases across Europe, the US, and Australia, the panel reveals how fundamental freedoms are being redefined — and what must be done to reclaim them.Paul Coleman is a British lawyer and Executive Director of ADF International, a legal advocacy organisation based in Vienna. He specialises in international human rights and European law, and has worked on more than 20 cases before the European Court of Human Rights. Coleman has also authored submissions to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the International Criminal Court, the Court of Justice of the European Union, the UN Human Rights Committee, and various national courts. Kristen Waggoner is CEO, President, and General Counsel of Alliance Defending Freedom, the world's largest legal organisation defending religious liberty and free speech. She has argued several landmark U.S. Supreme Court cases, including Masterpiece Cakeshop and 303 Creative, securing major victories for freedom of expression. Waggoner also oversees ADF's international work, advancing human rights and defending the rule of law around the world. John Steenhof is the Principal Lawyer at the Human Rights Law Alliance, a legal firm dedicated to defending religious freedom and free speech in Australia. With a background in commercial law and non-profit leadership, he now focuses on protecting the rights of individuals to live out their faith without legal penalty.

2025晨鐘課-每天,都是新的起點 以歷史智慧滋養生活,點亮2025每一天! 借鑑過去,活在當下,展望未來! 粵語廣播網站 (時兆出版社授權錄製) https://soundcloud.com/mediahk Podcast@靈修廣播站 6月19日 1888 年的信息 如果你們聽過他的道,領了他的教,學了他的真理。 以弗所書 4:21 有幾項復臨教會的獨立事工致力於宣揚「1888年的信息」。這些主張是指1888年10月17日至11月4日,在美國明尼蘇達州明尼阿波利斯舉行的總會代表大會會議期間、以及一週前展開之教牧人員會議上所涉及的教義論述和討論。探討的主題包括〈但以理書〉第7章預言中的十個角、〈加拉太書〉第 3章中的律法以及因信稱義。但我們應該如何理解1888年的信息 呢? 1888年8月5日,懷愛倫寫了一封公開信給即將參加當年大會的代表們;信的開頭說:「我們深深地感悟這次大會將是你們所參加的最重要的會議。這應該是一段懇切尋求上帝,在祂面前謙卑己心的日子。我盼望你們將此次大會視為祈禱及彼此勸勉的絕佳機會。」信的後面,她補充說:「正確地解釋《聖經》並不是上帝的全部要求。祂吩咐我們不僅要明白真理,而且要實踐在耶穌裡的真理。」 在會議期間,懷愛倫熱情地支持了阿隆佐.鐘斯(Alonzo T. Jones)和埃萊特.瓦格納(Ellet J. Waggoner)所提出的、以基督為中心的信息。但有些人過度解讀了她的支持。她的背書是針對所呈現的「信息」,而不是人類的「信使」。 1889年6月19日,懷愛倫在紐約州羅馬鎮的一次佈道中談到了這個問題。她解釋說:「有人曾問我,你對這些人正在傳講的這個亮光怎麼看?唉,在過去的45年中我一直在向你們宣講它─基督無比的吸引力。這正是我一直努力要向你們的心思呈現的。當瓦格納弟兄在明尼阿波利斯說出這些想法時,乃是我在自己和我丈夫之間的談論之外,第一次從人的口中聽到有關這個題目的清楚講解。」 對懷愛倫來說,1888年信息的核心與她一直闡述的主題是一致的:「基督無與倫比的魅力」和「在耶穌裡的真理」。因信稱義的核心,就是要與基督有著深刻的個人經歷。
Several of these stories and their victims are part of the anti-queer wave of legislation put in place by the UK conservative government seeking to outlaw homosexuality. As the anti-queer rhetoric rose, so did the violence against the LGBTQ+ community. The de Gruchy case was the first time the mainstream press began to use the term “queer-bashing” to describe the murderous level of hate crimes. Before this, the tone was unmistakably mock and/or cruel, but the standard would not hold. In 1969, Michael de Gruchy was attacked and beaten to death by a teen gang trolling a gay cruising spot in Wimbledon, England. In 1972, Leonard Bestwick was stabbed and left to die after an attempted robbery by two young men who “Set out to roll a queer.” The murder of Mr. Bestwick highlights the capriciousness of hate. Bestwick and his friend were just out, as many others were having a drink, and for this, he was brutally murdered. If his friend had gone into the bathroom first, he might have met the same terrible fate. On the evening of September 18, 1989, 40, Christoph Schliack, a German immigrant living in the UK for more than 20 years, was murdered in his Shepherd's Bush, London flat. Kenneth Williams, the 20-something who killed him, managed to flee the city of London for Ireland. Mr. Schliack had attended Leeds University, studying Chinese. He was also a lawyer, but did not practice at the bar for unclear reasons. On August 30, 1987, Richard Lynn Earnest went to his estranged wife's home, where he removed his wife's and her lover's shoes from the car, replacing them with his carpentry tools. Before driving off, he left two notes, one for his son and the other for his wife. A day later, Richard Earnest would be dead. Mr. Earnest left behind a son and a family who loved him. On Monday, June 9, 2008, 37, Jeremy Waggoner, a Royal Oak, Michigan hairdresser, was last seen leaving a Detroit, Michigan bar getting into his SUV with a man identified as Rich. When he didn't return home, his partner of seven years called the police, reporting Waggoner missing. On Monday, March 31, 2025, 31, Kaitoria “Kai” Bankz and 27, Kelmen Merrell King made arrangements to hook up in Autaugaville, Alabama, around 11:40 pm. When they did meet, King and an accomplice attempted to carjack Bankz and her brother, resulting in the death of Bankz.

Lucid dreaming is one of life's mysteries that we have slowly been unraveling over the past several decades. It wasn't until the 1980's that we had scientific evidence that it was even possible, despite people having this ability for as long as humans have been around. Now, we're able to point to lucid dreaming as a way to not only access the subconscious mind, but bring it into the conscious, and even change our waking reality. Robert Waggoner has been lucid dreaming since before there was evidence of it. In his book, Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self, he writes about how lucid dreaming can be another gateway to tap into consciousness and find peace of mind. In this episode, he talks about how lucid dreaming can be used for creativity, physical and mental healing, learning ourselves more deeply, and even manifesting our deepest desires. He explains how this could be applied to the fertility journey as a way to improve our physical and mental health and do inner healing that can be reflected into our outer world. If you've ever been curious about lucid dreaming or want to try it yourself, hearing Robert's experiences and guidance in this episode is the perfect place to start. Key Topics/Takeaways: Robert's introduction to lucid dreaming as a child [1:50] Why lucid dreaming isn't just for entertainment [6:23] The awareness behind the dream [13:05] Dreams as a communication pathway with your unborn child [19:25] Surrendering to lucid dreams [23:47] How Robert's view of the world has changed since lucid dreaming [28:42] Manifesting physical healing in dreams [31:28] Preparing yourself for lucid dreaming [37:01] Speaking to your unconscious mind [39:33] Manifesting your desires with neutral beliefs [43:59] About Robert Waggoner: Robert Waggoner wrote the acclaimed book, Lucid Dreaming – Gateway to the Inner Self, and co-authored Lucid Dreaming Plain and Simple with Caroline McCready. A past President of the International Association for the Study of Dreams (IASD), Waggoner serves as co-editor of the online magazine, The Lucid Dreaming Experience, the only ongoing publication devoted specifically to lucid dreaming. A lucid dreamer since 1975, he has logged more than 1,000 lucid dreams.

At age 92, Boots O'Neal still gets horseback every day. The longtime Four Sixes Ranch cowboy was raised in West Texas and started working at age 15 in 1947. He has since hired on with legendary outfits such as the JA Ranch, Matador, Waggoner, Babbitts and now the Sixes. Despite encountering his share of broncy horses, snorty cows, merciless droughts, severe winter storms and visits to the emergency room — a couple of them recently — he has never wavered from his chosen occupation. He received the Working Cowboy Award from the National Ranching Heritage Center in 2018 and was inducted into the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame in 2023.
So many women find themselves completely caught off guard by menopause. We prepare for different seasons of life - marriage, motherhood, career changes - but this transition often arrives quietly, with symptoms we don't recognize and challenges we don't expect. We often feel unprepared for “the big M”, often seeing it as something [...]
