Pastor's Sunday Sermon

May 5, 2024

The earth never ends. We are here for a brief time in the grand scheme of things. And the world keeps on going regardless of who come and who goes. And we all will.
These types of passages are mentioned to be a lament.
We may go through epic struggles in our lives. But the sun will set and rise the next day regardless of what we are experiencing.
It would all be for naught if we did not have the promise given to us by God!

Ecclesiastes 1:4-8

A generation goes and a generation comes,
but the earth remains forever.
5 The sun rises and the sun sets;
panting, it hurries back to the place
where it rises.
6 Gusting to the south,
turning to the north,
turning, turning, goes the wind,
and the wind returns in its cycles.
7 All the streams flow to the sea,
yet the sea is never full;
to the place where the streams flow,
there they flow again.
8 All things[a] are wearisome,
more than anyone can say.
The eye is not satisfied by seeing
or the ear filled with hearing.

Genesis 3:19

You will eat bread[a] by the sweat of your brow
until you return to the ground,
since you were taken from it.
For you are dust,
and you will return to dust.”

1 Peter 1:24

For

All flesh is like grass,
and all its glory like a flower of the grass.
The grass withers, and the flower falls,

Ezekiel 19:14

Fire has gone out from its main branch[a]
and has devoured its fruit,
so that it no longer has a strong branch,
a scepter for ruling.

This is a lament and should be used as a lament.”

John 3:16

For God loved the world in this way:[a] He gave[b] his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
