How does the Incarnation relate to the human condition, known as "the rat race"? It turns out, the vicious cycle of human existence eluded to us by Solomon is exactly what we need to come to terms with, in order to appreciate the good news of Jesus Christ. In a manner of speaking, Ecclesiastes reminds us of the bad news which makes the gospel so glorious. During a season of hustle and bustle, New Years' resolutions, and attempts to remedy our lives with silver bullets, we need to be reminded of the rescue and freedom that Jesus accomplishes for His people by entering into the human experience on our behalf.

This sermon is entitled "The Heart of the Matter" from Ecclesiastes 9:11-18. It was preached on Sunday, December 18, 2022, at Ortega Presbyterian Church in Jacksonville Florida.
