June 4, 2006 Speaker: Paul Martin Series: Living the Good Life

Topic: Expository Preaching Scripture: Ecclesiastes 7

 

III. A wise man will look at life with God's wisdom and will focus on obeying God and enjoy the gifts God sovereignly gives and takes away (part 2 - chapter 7:1-14)

SOMETIMES ADVERSITY IS A GOOD THING. WHAT YOU SEE IS NOT ALWAYS WHAT YOU GET.

1) DEATH authenticates the godly and sobers the silly (:1-2)

2) SORROW brings joy (:3-4)

3) REBUKES make wise (:5-7)

4) AFFLICTION teaches patience and proves wisdom (:8-12)

5) CONCLUSION: CONSIDER THE WORK OF GOD (:13-14)
