In this fifth sermon of our series on Ecclesiastes, Pastor David examines Solomon's observations about injustice and oppression in the world. Using the parable Nathan told to King David about a rich man taking a poor man's beloved lamb, the sermon illustrates how envy drives injustice. Solomon, who was the son of David and Bathsheba, grew up understanding the destructive power of envy in his own family story.The sermon highlights Ecclesiastes 4:1-4, where Solomon observes that "all toil and all achievement spring from one person's envy of another." Pastor David connects this ancient wisdom to modern examples, including Lex Luthor's envy of Superman, and Jesus' parable in Matthew 20:15-16 about workers in the vineyard. The message concludes by challenging us to examine our hearts for envy, recognizing that it harms our souls and our relationship with God.We invite you to connect with us: https://linktr.ee/faithmcrichmondtx
