Description
  • Hill preaches on the theme of work based on Ecclesiastes 4:1-8. The Teacher suggests a wise approach to work via 4 attitudes. Firstly, labour motivated by and incites envy. Secondly, laziness and lack of work. Thirdly, unending toil and work. Finally, modest demands from work and inner peace. The Teacher's purpose is reflected in 12:13, to fear God. Man's relationship with God is the most important aspect in life. God the Creator finds its counterpart in the psychology of man. Man's life without God will be empty. The Teacher is merely putting themselves in the shoes of one who is without God. All the paths of the secular man lead nowhere in the end.
