a. The Lord of life - Reminder of love

2. 所羅門王－虛空的體驗

b. King Solomon - Experience of vanity

－「2 傳道者說：虛空的虛空，虛空的虛空，凡事都是虛空。…8 萬事令人厭煩，人不能說盡。眼看，看不飽；耳聽，聽不足。 9 已有的事後必再有；已行的事後必再行。日光之下並無新事。 …14 我見日光之下所做的一切事，都是虛空，都是捕風。…」(傳1:2，8-9，14)

- 2 “ Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher;  “ Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.” … 8 All things are full of labor; Man cannot express it. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, Nor the ear filled with hearing. 9 That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun... 14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and indeed, all is vanity and grasping for the wind...  (Ecclesiastes 1:2, 8-9, 14)

3. 你我－親身的經歷

- The days of our lives are seventy years; And if by reason of strength they are eighty years, Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; For it is soon cut off, and we fly away. (Psalm 90:10)

• 『生命吞死亡』，『喜樂代憂傷』，『被擄得釋放』，『羞辱變榮耀』…

－「人都是先擺上好酒，等客喝足了，才擺上次的，你倒把好酒留到如今！」

• 『Life swallows up death』，『Joy replaces sorrow』，『Captives are set free』，『Shame turns into glory』…

        - “Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”

• 局面扭轉的實現－「衪告訴你們甚麼，你們就做甚麼。」(約2:5)
• The realization of turning around the situation  - “Whatever He says to you, do it.”  (John 2:5)
