In the annual Jewish cyclical tradition of Torah readings, the seemingly pessimistic treatise Ecclesiastes is designated the megillah for Sukkot or the Feast of Tabernacles, chronicling Solomon's quest for pleasure and the disillusioning consequences of worldly pursuits. Ecclesiastes 3:11 proclaims that God has made everything beautiful in its time. Sadly, the entire world, including most professing Christians have no idea what God's overall plan is. God's Called-out saints have been entrusted with the mysteries of God (I Corinthians 4:1) having received the gift of God's Holy Spirit or the very mind of Christ (I Corinthians 2:16) to sort out what is chaotic and hopelessly confusing to the rest of the world, those who are left with only the public revelation (referring to Romans 1:20), available to all who have the spirit in man (Proverbs 20:27 and I Corinthians 2:11). We, as God's called-out ones must respond to our precious calling, choosing permanent eternal spiritual treasures, such as knowing God, the equivalent to eternal life (John 17:3), the earnest payment of His Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13-14), enabling us the ability to keep His holy and spiritual law, giving us the metaphorical DNA to convert our genotype (a seed or embryo) into a full grown phenotype (a fully mature spiritual organism).
