"As he came forth of his mother's womb, naked shall he return to go as he came and shall take NOTHING of his labour which he may carry away in his hand." (Eccl. 7:13) God had earlier decreed in Gen.3:19(b): "........ dust thou art and unto dust thou shall return." taking NOTHING along as you return.
So, why do some men kill their fellow human beings for the purpose of acquiring wealth? Why do others kidnap, trade in hard drugs, rob with merciless violence, rape women, even teenagers with reckless abandon or sleep with beasts i.e. dogs, goats, etc or dupe unsuspecting innocent men of their hard-earned money, just to acquire wealth?
Remember, no matter what you acquire - be they houses in choice locations, companies, fleet of expensive and exotic cars or cash both in Naira and foreign currency in billions, on the day you "return to the dust", NONE of the stupendous and ill-gotten wealth you have acquired neither your wife nor any of your children shall go with you, for NAKED you came and NAKED you shall return empty-handed and the funny and miserable thing is that all the wealth you left behind may not even be enjoyed by your immediate family, but those who NEVER worked or sweated for it hence Solomon declared; "ALL IS VANITY!"
Let us therefore heed the words of advice from King Solomon in Eccl. 12:13-14 after he had tasted everything you can imagine on the face of this Earth: "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter - Fear God and keep His commandments, for that is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work unto judgement with every secret thing, whether it is good or whether it is bad." Remember also what our Lord Jesus Christ advised in the Book of Mark 8:36: "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"
So, my dear brethren, let us endeavour to live a contented and God-fearing life and it shall be well with you. Remain blessed in the name of Jesus.
