157: A Time to Die (Ecclesiastes 1-4)

from Wholly Buyable · host Chas Bayfield

Meaningless! Meaningless! There aren't many books in the Bible or otherwise that begin as bleakly as this one.And, plot spoiler, the vibe doesn't lift much as Ecclesiastes progresses.There is no point to life it seems than for a person to eat, drink and take what pleasure they can from work, as a human lifespan is as brief as it is pointless. Furthermore, the dead are soon forgotten.Enjoy!

Now You See TV Jonathan Pounders About UsStatement of Faith Covenant:We are not a Hebrew Roots, Messianic, Jewish, modern Christian or a New Age ministry. We believe wholly in the scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. We believe that Yeshua is the Messiah and there is no other means of salvation or redemption other than Him. We believe He is the only way to the Father. We believe that obedience to His word is a part of Faith and the two cannot be separate. We believe that the Father is One with the Son and the Spirit. We do not believe that Yeshua was a creature; but is coequal and coeternal with the Father. We believe the greatest commandment that encompasses all other commands and demands they be fulfilled (practiced) is to “love YHVH your God with all your heart” soul and mind.Our pledge to our listeners:1. We believe that New Age, Mysticism, Theosophy, Hinduism, Buddhism, Ascended Master Teachings, Kabbalah, Taoism, Witchcraft, Freemasonry and any forms, subgroups, or offshoots Nana by Émile Zola Loyal Books Excerpt from Introduction:"Nana" stands third in popularity among the Zola novels. It is a study of the prostitute type and it gives a memorable picture of the life of the tinsel underworld of the Paris theaters, night life, and its parasites. Perhaps Zola pursues Nana a bit too relentlessly: certainly his putting a period to her career by showing her as a putrefying corpse is more symbolic than is wholly necessary; but it remains a novel of truth and beauty, even if a beauty of a drab and often terrible sort.Summary by Burton Rascoe / Celine Major
