The Memory Text is appropriate for the title of this week's study.
"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man" (Ecclesiastes 12:13).
This also comes from the Sabbath Afternoon section:
In its own way, Ecclesiastes could have been summed up with the phrase "Without God life makes no sense." But that can be read two ways, not just that if no God exists life makes no sense but that if we live without God, without acknowledging Him or His commands, life makes no sense. And that's because, among other reasons, death is always there, waiting to swallow us up into oblivion. Without the answer to death, there's no answer to life, and that answer is found only in Jesus, who beat death and with that victory offers us what we can't get anywhere else. " 'Without Me,' " Jesus said, " 'you can do nothing' " (John 15:5, NKJV), and that includes finding any good reason for our existence.
I see the basic message being that without a saving relationship with Jesus Christ all that this life has to offer is truly vanity.

if we live without God, without acknowledging Him or His commands, life makes no sense Reminds me of a bumper sticker: No God, No Peace Know God, Know Peace

There is no excuse for any one in taking the position that there is no more truth to be revealed, and that all our expositions of Scripture are without an error. The fact that certain doctrines have been held as truth for many years by our people, is not a proof that our ideas are infallible. Age will not make error into truth, and truth can afford to be fair. No true doctrine will lose anything by close investigation. RH 12/20/1892
