Life’s Big Questions: Why is Life So Hard?
Why is Life So Hard? (Genesis 3:14-24)
The Christmas season is often a festive and busy time for most. Amidst the hustle and bustle, however, we may still be struggling with issues of life and wonder if there is lasting joy and hope. In this, the second of a series of messages on Life’s Big Questions, it seeks to address how the Bible speaks honestly about our struggles and also offers true hope and joy. This is why Christians can celebrate Christmas.
Hear from Elder Jonathan Tan, Grace Baptist Church (GBC) as he addressed the topic on the fundamental issue faced by humanity through the ages which resulted in life that is so hard on earth and yet there is a reason for hope. The big idea: We live in a fallen world but we are clothed in Christ’s righteousness and awaiting return to paradise.
