Nothing New Under the Sun


So let's have less of this Christian 'newness' rubbish.

Sin is ancient, so is the serpent.

There is nothing new under the sun.

People have been attempting to overthrow the Moral Law since Adam and Eve.

People have been seeking ways to justify sin for, literally, ages.

  1. Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher,
    vanity of vanities! All is vanity.
    What does man gain by all the toil
    at which he toils under the sun?
    A generation goes, and a generation comes,
    but the earth remains for ever.
    The sun rises and the sun goes down,
    and hastens to the place where it rises.
    The wind blows to the south,
    and goes round to the north;
    round and round goes the wind,
    and on its circuits the wind returns.
    All streams run to the sea,
    but the sea is not full;
    to the place where the streams flow,
    there they flow again.
    All things are full of weariness;
    a man cannot utter it;
    the eye is not satisfied with seeing,
    nor the ear filled with hearing.
    What has been is what will be,
    and what has been done is what will be done;
    and there is nothing new under the sun.
    (Ecclesiates Chapter 1: verses 2-9)
