Love God Greatly: Ecclesiastesনমুনা

SOAP – Ecclesiastes 1:17-18; Solomon was the wisest king on earth. He chose wisdom as his gift from God above all other gifts he could have chosen. He pursued knowledge wherever it could be found. However, the more Solomon learned, the emptier he felt. The more knowledge he obtained, the more grief and sorrow he experienced. The wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. Conversely, that which the world deems foolish, salvation in Jesus Christ, is wiser than earthly wisdom. Education in and of itself is not a negative thing, but it only speaks to us about this earthly life. The rest of the story is found in God’s Word. Our answers, knowledge, and wisdom about our earthly life and about eternity are only found there.
