Ecclesiastes Week 8 - Wealth and Honor

This week's passage related to wealth and honor, Solomon leaves us with the question; "Who really knows what is good for man in this life?" (Ecclesiastes 6:12) In light of eternity and our relationship with God, who can say whether it is better to be wealthy or poor, to be healthy or sick, to be weak or strong. We know that the ability to enjoy the pleasures of life without them leading us to evil is impossible without the Holy Spirit's help. And we know that we don't take any earthly possessions or earthly accolades with us when we die. As you prepare for this week's teaching by reviewing Ecclesiastes 5:8-6:12, reflect also on the things that have most helped you to know Christ better and love Him more.
