“The Leveling Power of Death” – Ecclesiastes 2:12–17 (ESV)

Solomon confronts the ultimate futility of life “under the sun”: wisdom may guide us better than folly, but in the end, death claims both the wise and the fool alike. In this devotion, Pastor Balla reflects on the sobering truth that death levels all human striving and silences every earthly boast.

But the Good News breaks through the sorrow. Jesus Christ—God’s Wisdom in the flesh—has overcome death for us. What Solomon saw dimly, we see clearly: death is no longer the end, but the beginning of life eternal for those in Christ.

Join us as we find comfort in Christ’s victory and rest in the hope that even death cannot take away.
