You’ve probably heard the phrase, “Weird but true.” There are many things in this life that sound strange, but actually happen. Even the Bible gives accounts of events that were weird but true!
Similarly, in the book of Ecclesiastes we read about a series of spiritual truths that sound contradictory, but in God’s wisdom and sovereignty are actually true.
Listen as Pastor Jeremy Lobdell expounds on these contrasting spiritual truths in the sermon, “Consider the End” based on Ecclesiastes 7:
- Death is Better (for those in Christ)
- A Rebuke is Better
