Study
Three general questions for digging deeper:
- What does this text teach us about God?
- What does this text teach us about ourselves?
- If this text is true, what should we do to obey this teaching?
Questions specific to the September 13 sermon from Ecclesiastes 1:1-11:
- How is life like a vapor? (fragile, fleeting, enigmatic?)
- Without God all of our efforts cannot produce gain (profit). Why is that?
- How does John 1 answer the question: What is the meaning of life? Why is it significant that God’s Word describes the meaning of life as a person?
- What have you been living for? Where have you tried to find satisfaction other than in God Himself?
