Does God’s Wisdom Teach Us?

Today’s Feast clic aquí en español * Feb. 3, 2014 – Ecclesiastes 1 Does God’s Wisdom Teach Us? “16 For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life is not from the Father but is from the world.”  1 John 2:16 Ecclesiastes an overview, “The name of this book signifies "The Preacher." The wisdom of God here preaches to us, speaking by Solomon, who it is evident was the author. At the close of his life, being made sensible of his sin and folly, he recorded here his experience for the benefit of others, as the book of his repentance; and he pronounced all earthly good to be "vanity and vexation of spirit." It convinces us of the vanity of the world, and that it cannot make us happy; of the vileness of sin, and its certain tendency to make us miserable. It shows that no created good can satisfy the soul, and that happiness is to be found in God alone; and this doctrine must, under the blessed Spirit's teaching, lead the heart to Christ Jesus.”  -  Matthew Henry Concise Ecclesiastes Chapter 1, “Solomon shows that all human things are vain. (1-3) Man's toil and want of satisfaction. (4-8) There is nothing new. (9-11) The vexation in pursuit of knowledge. (12-18)”  -  Matthew Henry Concise Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast reading Ecclesiastes Chapter 1 Today’s Feast is speaks to the value of worldly wisdom.   “18 For in much wisdom is much vexation, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow. “   Ecclesiastes 1:18  English Standard Version (ESV) Our Supreme Court as well as any person seeking understanding the will of God or what is good and right should take a lesson here. You can make laws or be as politically correct as you want; If God says it’s sin it is sin (see Ecclesiastes 7:13).  Don’t be fooled by what the world say’s is proper and right.  The only thing that may be new and good (See Ecclesiastes 3:15) is a repentant sinner gaining salvation through God’s Son Jesus.  "But I will sing of your strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress.“  -  Psalm 59:16 ESV.  Even the angels in heaven rejoice (see Luke 15:10) whenever a soul turns to Jesus for freedom and that more excellent life. Is Jesus calling you?  Do you want freedom?  Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life?  If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the following link; http://www.admenu.com/calling.htm The Feast does belong to Jesus!
