If You Forget Everything Else... Remember This

Pastor Jared concludes a 19-week series in Ecclesiastes, emphasizing that the book’s repeated “vanity” describes life “under the sun” (without God) and the endless cycle of desire, obstacles, temporary possession, and dissatisfaction. The sermon highlights the book’s final message: true meaning is found in fearing God (awe, reverence, running to Him) and keeping His commandments, which the speaker describes as the most fulfilling, freeing way to live. He stresses coming judgment for every deed, then points to justification in Christ and invites listeners to surrender to Jesus, repent, confess sin, and examine what holds their attention and where they miss God’s commands.
