The Way of Wisdom - Hold onto the Lord | Week 4

Cornerstone Christian Center

Feb 5 2024 • 40 mins

Today, Pastor J leads us in exploring the wisdom found in Ecclesiastes 12. We delve into the scripture's profound message: "Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man." Solomon's life journey, marked by the pursuit of pleasure and wisdom, is portrayed as ultimately unfulfilling. Our message resonates with the modern reliance on technology and knowledge, urging a collective shift towards the pursuit of genuine, eternal wisdom.

The narrative unfolds with Solomon's candid reflection on life's meaninglessness despite amassing wealth, pleasures, and knowledge. In a world driven by rapid technological advances, his perspective challenges us to reconsider the value of our pursuits. Pastor J underscores the tension between worldly accomplishments and the pursuit of enduring wisdom, encouraging a recalibration towards eternal values.

The emotional struggles many face are very real, and a balanced approach is crucial, encompassing both toughness and a genuine connection with one's feelings. We are left with a profound challenge: to hold onto the Lord in the midst of life's fleeting pursuits, seeking enduring wisdom over temporal achievements. The need for an eternal perspective calls for a purposeful life centered on fearing God and keeping His commandments.
