Jesus The Hope of Sinners

Ecc.3:20 All go to one place. All are from the dust, and to dust all return.

This verse is comparing man and beast. God made man and beast from dust. And that is where we both shall return. But, there is a difference that must be taken into account, God has given man an eternal soul that will live forever. Man has reasoning, he reads, he contemplates, he chooses and will live with the consequences! The spirit of man will be judged by his Creator who resides above! So, knowing this, why do we trust in the things of his world? Our toil is of benefit, but does not satisfy the deep longing of our souls!

2Sam.14:14 
We must all die; we are like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. But God will not take away life, and he devises means so that the banished one will not remain an outcast.


Gen.2:7 
then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature.

Ps.146:3-6
3 Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. 
4 When his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish. 
5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, 
6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps faith forever; 

God became man, in the form of Jesus, so that we can be reconciled to Him! God can not look upon sinful man unless he is covered by the redeeming blood of Christ!
