Jesus from the book of Ecclesiastes. The wise preacher.

JESUS CHRIST, THE WISE PREACHER.  ECCLESIASTES

Hide quoted text

      The Bible from the book of Ecclesiastes reveals our Lord JESUS CHRIST as the wise preacher. Ecclesiastes 12:9-10. And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs. The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth. Luke 4:18.   The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. Our Lord Himself confirmed, that He was sent by the father to preach the gospel. Luke 4:43-44. And he said unto them, — I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent. And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.

   However, all through the earthly ministry of our Lord JESUS CHRIST, His messages as a preacher was focused on reconciling mankind with God. Principally, bringing the lost back to God.  Matthew 4:17. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.Luke 19:10  For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

   It is pitiful today that multitude of the people have not  realized their lost estate. An unconverted person is like the prodigal son, separated from His father and must be reconciled.  Luke 15:24. For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

     The word of God affirmed any one who have rejected the gospel as a lost person. 

2 Corinthians 4:3-4. But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

     Everyone on the face of the earth are created by God to be wise. One thing that makes us wise, is our receptiveness to biblical injunctions and readiness to be thoughtful about our eternal well being. Proverbs 19:20. Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.  Deuteronomy 32:29. O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!

      Dear friend are you thoughtful about your eternal well being? Do you know that one day, which might be sooner than you, think, you will pass on? How prepared are you for an unending eternity? There are two eternal ends. You attitude to JESUS the wise preacher today, determines, whether your eternity will be blissful or painful.   Matthew 25:46. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

   Come right away to the wise preacher. Believe Him and you will be saved.  Receiving Him now will make your life joyful and your eternity blissful . Acts 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

SEE YOU AT THE TOP.   JESUS CHRIST IS LORD FOREVER.
