2019 International Convention Notes - All [Melbourne, Australia]

View File

Love Never Fails !   Most of us would remember our last in-person Convention with great fondness. Here are some of the highlights:

 

The Symposium: "Beware of Trusting in What Fails!" gave us timely warnings about the dangers of trusting in wealth, status & fame, human wisdom or strength & beauty.

 

Another Symposium: "Love Never Fails Despite ..."  showed us how love can overcome such things as a loveless upbringing, difficult work environment, ungodly school environment, chronic health problems, poverty and family opposition.

 

Who could forget the wonderful videos accompanying the next Symposium: "Creation Reveals Jehovah's Love"

 

Saturday discussed many ways to display unfailing love, and how we are actively doing so in many regions of the world.

 

An 8-part Symposium: "Remember How Love Behaves" discussed 8 things that love does and does not do.

 

And of course, we had our wonderful Feature Film on The Story of Josiah.

 

And the final talk, "Carefully Consider Jehovah's Acts of Loyal Love" by Bro. David Splane showed us what Loyal Love is, and how those in Bible times benefited from it. We were encouraged to take action if something in the Convention program had touched us deeply. It finished with a discussion of how the prophecy in Daniel 11 continues to be fulfilled in our day. The following very interesting comments were made:

 

"What about today? Is Daniel’s prophecy being fulfilled?
vs 40,41 – King of South and North in a “pushing” – Cyber Warfare, Electronic Espionage, etc. etc.
“He will enter into the lands and sweep through like a flood”. This happened with Russia and Ukraine"
 

The Convention ended on a high note where we all sang the wonderful new song "Unfailing Love" and half a dozen other Kingdom Songs !!!


 

- If in your travels you chance upon an angry little garden, Run!!!

Thanks Brother.

I so wanted to go to Melbourne then. We ended up going to Brisbane.

Was awesome. Program. Yep. Most awesome song.  Was the last adventure .
