As we conclude our study of the book of Ecclesiastes you'll find it difficult to believe the end of the matter with Solomon. Prepare to be shocked if you're unfamiliar with the full history and final end of king Solomon. 

\\n

God gave and invested greatly in Solomon. He cultivated all of Solomon's works under the sun with the gift of the greatest amount of Godly wisdom a human being would ever have. He not only gave Solomon the honor of building the first temple instead of his father, David, doing so, but to write three of the most personally impacting books of wisdom in the Bible. With all of that, what kind of end would one anticipate for such a truly blessed and fruitful life?

\\n

The truth is stranger than fiction, and Biblical truth is not only so, but instructive even in its irony. 

\\n

Please join us and learn what happened with Solomon and why his life crashed and burned to destruction. We all will do well to learn the greatest of lessons about the human condition and take into account the full wickedness of our human heart. The Bible tells us that your heart, my heart. is so desperately wicked that we can't even plumb the depths of how evil we truly are.

\\n

Even with God's direct blessings, we are apt to fail, and that most miserably. Paul tells us to discipline ourselves in sanctification and run as if in a race for first prize! 

\\n

So, what can we learn through Solomon's life and his horrible end? God wants you and I to learn and know so that we can be warned and avoid disaster - even from under a fully blessed life under God's direct care!
