Well, good morning.
Good to see everyone.
Good to see this good number here today.
Glad that you're hearing this Super Bowl Sunday in it Super Bowl.
So how many Bengal fans are in here this morning?
1, 2 3 4 5, how many?
RAM Vans 12? Okay.
I'll write it is.
Well, that's why I was out right and how many?
Don't care.
And probably a bunch up.
There we go.
Okay.
Well, that's all right.
Now.
The day's not the I don't keep up with this but today is not the Daytona 500, is it?
It's next week?
Okay.
Alrighty.
I thought it was somewhere around the Super Bowl.
I didn't know.
But good, good to see you.
We're glad that you are here today.
We're going to continue.
In our new series that we started last week.
I think most of you were here last week.
So we have started a new series and here it is searching for heaven on Earth.
And if you remember last week, we talked about kind of energy used to Book of Ecclesiastes.
And we talked about folks searching for a purpose and meaning here on this Earth.
And how is kind of it's a futile search.
If you do it without God, and we talked about a lot of things last week about the idols and all and matter fact, if you'll just look in the first verse of the day.
We going to look at verses 3 through 11, but just look at the first verse here, in Ecclesiastes chapter one says the words of the preacher.
Son of David kendrews.
Them vanity of vanities, says the preacher vanities and vanity.
All is Vanity, how many times the word vanity is in that, in the first two first, two verses.
So I have a slide.
I want to show you from last week.
And here's, here's the title of the message life.
Today, life is so boring.
Is that not right to you sometime.
If you ever thought you were like, is monotonous and boring.
Well, that's what we going to talk about.
Play the repetitive cycle of our existence.
Well, I carried over to slide from last week because I want you to look at it here in the first two verses vanity of vanities.
What does that mean?
It's the Hebrew word hevel.
It literally means breath or vapor.
Remember James at our life is like a vapor here today, gone tomorrow, but it can also mean idle.
And remember we said last week, that those who look for the things of this world.
Pleasure success.
Accept a job relationship.
If you want to try to find meaning in that it's just vanity on vanity.
It will not work because you're trying to fill your life.
With something that is temporary.
You're trying to fill your life with the gift of God.
And sometimes if we're not careful, we turn those gift into Gods themselves.
And then that's when life gets frustrating.
And also remember this next.
Good things pleasure, sex money success, acceptance job.
Just fill in the blank.
All the good things that we have in life relationships, good things.
Can become bad things.
Obsessions addictions Idols, when Good Things become ruling thing in your life.
So if you are so obsessed with this person, or with this job, or would making this amount of money if you obsessed with that, that will become a God to you, and you'll start worshipping the creation and not the Creator.
And that's what leads to frustration and lack of meaning and lack of purpose in life.
So here's what I want to do.
I'm going to read verses 3 through 11.
That's what we going to go over today.
And again the title of this message is life is so boring.
And this is what Solomon is going to tell us.
So let's read verses 3 through 11, then we'll come back and unpack.
So he says, what profit has a man from all his labor in which he toils under the sun.
One generation passes away, and another generation comes.
But the Earth abides forever.
The Sun Also Rises and The Sun Goes Down And hastens to the place where it arose, the wind goes toward the South and turns around to the north.
The When Worlds about continually in comes, again, on this circuit all the rivers run into the sea yet to see, is not full to the place from which two rivers come there.
They return again.
All Things Are full of Labor.
What he means there is, there's just so much activity in the world, the sun rising and setting.
The wind blowing from one way than the other, the rain, the river fill out flow into a lot of activity going on.
All things are full of Labor.
All Things Are full of activity.
Man, cannot express it.
The eyes not satisfied, or singing or the ear filled with hearing.
That which has been is, what will be and that which is done, is, what will be done and there is nothing new.
Under the Sun.
Is there anything of which it may be said, see this is new.
It has already been in ancient times before us.
There is no remembrance of former things nor will, there be any remembrance of things that are to come by, those who will come after?
Wow?
What a kind of a pessimistic view of life that.
But again, that is the view of Life under the sun.
Which means what life without God.
Life Under the Sun, Life East of Eden.
In a sin cursed world.
This is what Solomon sea.
So he began by asking the question kind of to prove his main point.
That everything is pointless and meaningless and see, he says, what does a man gain by all his labor or by all his efforts that were gained their armies profit or Advantage?
So in under the phone, this is an important phrase here that we're going to talk about.
It's found 30 times in this book and it means Solomon is looking at the question from an Earthly perspective, a question when God is not involved.
