An Overview of Ecclesiastes (Part 2) : The Inevitability of Death
On any given day, approximately 155,000 people worldwide die. This works out to about 56.5 million people every year. Some deaths are peaceful and others violent and tragic. Some die of disease, lack of necessities and others of old age; some die at the hands of another person, some by accident or of a natural disaster. Death is a hard thing. It brings much sorrow and pain to our lives and cuts so many lives short. It is the one thing all of us have in common.

In a Little While
What do you ask God for when you pray? When Jesus told his disciples that the Father would grant them “anything” that they asked, he was speaking within the context of praying for wisdom and understanding concerning his coming crucifixion. Resist the temptation of praying for earthly, material things and instead pray for God’s spiritual wisdom. Pray that you grasp the importance of his death on the cross for you and how that event impacts your life today. He promises that this will bring you joy that no one can ever take away!

Wisdom In Shoe-Leather: Righteousness In Proverbs

A Warning Label (1 Corinthians 2:6-16)
Paul contrasts divine wisdom with human wisdom. Divine wisdom is distinct from, cannot be reconciled with, and is ultimately opposed to human wisdom. Divine wisdom has a divine origin rather than a human origin: it is revealed by the Holy Spirit and not discerned by man's efforts. Divine wisdom is rooted in and revealed in the gospel and the cross. The cross provokes us to humility and gratitude.

Parable Of The House Built On The Sand (Being Lost)
The parable of the foolish man that built his house on the sand is mans doctrine. He is the one that goes in the broad way that leads to destruction. This the the many called. This is Satan's church. They receive their reward now but their house will be revealed by fire. The fire will destroy all the works of Satan and there will be a great fall. When the house falls how great that fall will be.

The Father Knows
In a culture in which is so easy to lose your soul, to throw it away, what Jesus gives us in the Lord's prayer is not only a way to pray but a way to find our souls, to find life and to live it. Now, before Jesus teaches us this prayer it seems there is at least one thing he wants us to get straight first. Before we pray we have to understand the heartbeat of prayer is the Fatherhood of God.

The End of the Matter
We don’t like to think about God as being someone that we should be afraid of. We would much rather think of God as a kindly grandfather who gives presents but never disciplines. King Solomon concludes his words by reminding us that we are all accountable to God. Someday we will all stand before Him and give an account for our actions. Because of this we should fear His discipline and judgment and obey His commands. These words can be painful to hear, but Solomon says that wise words are often painful but they are the poking and prodding from a good Shepherd who is trying to guide His foolish and stubborn sheep.
