Ecclesiastes 5:1 - 7

After exposing the emptiness of life without God, now Solomon comes up with a religious answer. However there is a form of religion that has no power to change. True worship centres not in the formality of a temple building, but in a right consideration of who God is, and today that means Christ.

The poverty of wealth

Solomon pictures the Corrupt Society, in which it is believed that money brings satisfaction and security, whereas eating in darkness alone is the ultimate lot of wealthy godlessness. Contrasted with that is the Contented Society – of sharing, and sitting together in the preoccupation of joy and faith, and life with God.
