Series: The End of Futility

Date: 29 September 2024

Preacher: Rev Dave Miers

--

In our exploration of Ecclesiastes, we've uncovered profound truths about life's seeming futility and the path to finding meaning. The book's repeated refrain of 'vanity' or 'meaningless' isn't the final word. Instead, we're called to rejoice in life, remember our Creator, and revere the Judge. These three 'R's' remind us that while life under the sun may feel transient, our actions echo in eternity. The vivid imagery of aging in Ecclesiastes 12 is a poignant reminder to seek God early before the 'evil days' come. This message carries particular weight for young people, urging them to build a foundation of faith in their youth. Ultimately, Ecclesiastes points us to Jesus, the One Shepherd, who offers true meaning and eternal life beyond the temporary nature of our earthly existence.
