- Description:
- Richard Gene Puckett was the editor of the Biblical Recorder. Puckett is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:12). A hymn is played (0:13-4:51). A word of prayer is followed by a hymn (cut) (4:52-6:05). Puckett is introduced (6:06-8:02). Puckett thanks Southeastern’s students and faculty (8:03-9:03). His lecture, “State Baptist Papers: Reflectors of the Crises,” focuses on how printed papers are better records of current events (9:04-10:00). He summarizes his lecture from the day before: he explains that the lecture dealt with the history of U.S. Baptist missions with a specific focus on the Judsons and Luther Rice and the creation of the Triennial Convention, the Southern Baptist Convention, and state conventions (10:01-10:20). Puckett expresses that documents exist that inform us of what truly happened during the birth of Baptist missions and that Baptist papers mirror these events (10:21-11:39). He chooses ten crises to prove this point, with the first crisis being the mission vs. anti-mission movements of the nineteenth century (11:40-11:59). These movements resulted due to the conflict between general atonement (Arminian theology) and particular atonement (Calvinistic theology) (12:00-12:55). Puckett reveals that Baptist papers reflected this conflict in Maryland (12:56-15:49). The second crisis involved the founding of the Southern Baptist Convention by the Virginia Mission Society which became a large highlight in Baptist papers (15:50-16:24). The third crisis is the Campbellite and Landmark movements, with the former movement involving Alexander Campbell and his view on baptism (16:25-17:15). Biblical Recorder editor Thomas Meredith recorded the errors of this movement (17:16-18:58). Puckett then explains that the Landmark movement viewed its church as the only valid church in accordance with New Testament truth and made an appearances in the Tennessee Baptist Paper and the Kentucky Western Baptist Review (18:59-20:48). The fourth crisis, with which the Kentucky Western Recorder highly involved, was the Witsitt controversy over whether Baptists could be traced back to Jesus’ time (20:49-23:45). Fundamentalism vs. Modernism was the fifth crisis that became popular in Baptist publications, specifically the Oklahoma Baptist Messenger (23:46-27:33). Puckett’s sixth crisis is the Baptist westward movement: some believed that these Baptists were not true Baptists with Reuben Ally, editor of the Virginia Religious Herald, being a strong voice of the conflict (27:34-29:11). Crisis seven is the Southern Baptist Seminary conflict that occurred due to a disagreement between the president and faculty and appeared in multiple papers such as the Kentucky Western Recorder and the Christian Index (29:12-33:16). The Elliot controversy at Mid-Western Seminary also found its way in Baptist papers, with E.S. James, editor of the Texas Baptist Standard leading the way (33:17-36:02). Puckett’s ninth crisis is the struggle of power, especially within the Southern Baptist Convention concerning the presidential position, and he conveys that this crisis caused many papers to suffer as they attempted to record the facts (36:03-38:23). The final crisis is one that occurred at Southeastern and was accurately and completely recorded by the Biblical Recorder (38:24-40:14). Puckett speaks on the problems of editing and recording, focusing on how writers never have complete freedom of words and on how they must strive to record truthfully, yet fairly (40:15-50:54). He then closes with saying that the Baptist mission of the world depends on education and information (52:59-53:59). Puckett is thanked and the congregation is informed that he will be in the Ledford Center for further discussions (52:59-53:59). A word of prayer ends the event (54:00-54:23).

Les Watson begins with rereading some of the Scripture reading from Acts 16, focusing on how God can change our plans to fit His plans (27:56-29:30). He strongly emphasizes the answering of God’s call to missions and highlights the many priority requests of the Southern Baptist Foreign Mission Board for 1989 (34:12-35:22). He then discusses when he answered the call and how God provided for him and his family (35:23-37:39). Dr. Watson reassures that God will supply for the needs of His followers (37:40-39:56). He reads the Great Commission and invites people to come forward in answer to God’s call as a hymn is sung (cut) (39:57-43:07). A word of prayer closes the service (43:08-43:42).

Hawn instructs the graduates “to do justice, love tenderly, and walk humbly with God” as a “basis for a covenant ministry” (45:24-52:45). Using the reading from the book of Micah, Hawn discusses that doing justice, loving tenderly, and walking humbly with God must be seen as one; they cannot be separate (52:46-1:00:42). Hawn then speaks on the hope found in Jesus, which the graduates must give to the world (1:00:43-1:01:47). He ends with mentioning how the Quakers perform all three (doing justice, loving tenderly, and walking humbly with God) and sings a Quaker hymn (1:01:48-1:05:16).

- Dr. Edwin Luther Copeland was Visiting Professor of Missions at SEBTS. Dr. Copeland is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:09). Hymns are played (0:10-9:54). A word of prayer is followed by a hymn (cut) (9:55-11:33). President Lewis Drummond greets the congregation, welcomes new students, and presents Carson Grissom to bestow the Middler Theological Award (11:34-17:17). Grissom confers the award (17:18-18:25). President Drummond congratulates the student and presents Dr. George Braswell (18:26-19:12). Dr. Braswell introduces Dr. Copeland (19:13-23:15). Dr. Braswell reads Colossians 1:15-23 for Dr. Copeland’s sermon (23:16-24:41). Dr. Copeland is honored to speak for Spring Convocation (24:42-26:26). His sermon focuses on the centrality of the unitive mission of Christ to theological education (26:27-27:58). He defines the Seminary as the intellectual center of the church and theological education as intellectual thinking and researching of the life and work of the church (27:59-30:02). Dr. Copeland discusses that “the unitive mission of Christ is matched by the unitive intellectual mission of theological education (30:03-31:23). He then speaks on three areas where the unitive mission of Christ intersects with the unitive mission of theological education: Western secular culture, religious pluralism (awareness of other religions), and the inner division of Christianity (31:24-47:23). Dr. Copeland speaks of the action needed in the intellectual centers of the church so that the unitive mission of Christ can be executed (47:24-47:58). He concludes with a final word on these three challenges and with encouragement to do our best to fulfill the unitive mission of Christ (47:59-49:21). President Drummond gives a word of prayer (49:22-50:13). A hymn ends the service (50:14-53:56).

Farrar discusses the need of social justice and brotherhood within the world and the Christian community (17:27-19:39). He provides examples of social justice in the biblical books of Amos, Isaiah, and Micah (19:40-21:28). Voices must be used to promote social justice (21:29-24:03).

- Description:
- Dr. Samuel Eugene Balentine was Associate Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at SEBTS. A hymn begins the service (0:00-5:11). The congregation sings a hymn (5:12-8:27). The Scripture reading comes from Genesis 22:1-14 and 1 Corinthians 10:13 (8:28-11:37). A word of prayer is given (11:38-12:55). Dr. Samuel Balentine begins with a recount of the story of God testing Abraham on Mt. Moriah (12:26-19:07). Mt. Moriah became the place where God tested and provided (19:08-20:12). Dr. Balentine asks whether we are prepared to encounter the same God who tests and provides (20:13-21:27). Abraham realized that the God, who tests all, also provides for all (21:28-25:11). Jesus demonstrated faith on the Cross at Golgotha (25:12-26:04). Dr. Balentine speaks about how we are “summoned to Mt. Moriah” like Abraham; we are expected to sacrifice everything and have faith in God (26:05:27:34). He concludes with Paul’s words regarding God: He is faithful and helps us to endure our tests (27:35-28:10). A word of prayer is given (28:11-28:35). A hymn ends the service (28:36-31:11).

- Dr. John Keating Wiles was Assistant Professor of Old Testament at SEBTS. Dr. Wiles is announced as Chapel speaker (poor quality) (0:00-0:31). A hymn is played (cut) (0:32-2:44). Psalm 51:10-13 is read (2:45-3:15). The choir sings a hymn (3:16-6:47). Another Scripture reading comes from Isaiah 32:9-20 (6:48-8:46). Prayer requests are made (8:47-9:54). A word of prayer is given (9:55-11:50). Dr. Wiles speaks of how Isaiah addresses the women of Israel and tells them to mourn for the upcoming changes of their world (11:51-16:00). He emphases the difference between kings and prophets: kings do not call people to mourn when encountering changes, instead they instruct the people to forget the past, ignore the present, and look on the positive side (16:01-16:35). Kings use the managerial approach in life which focuses on statistics and budgets (16:36-18:24). Dr. Wiles discusses how prophets provide words of realism when they call people to live and die in a world that changes (18:25-21:14). Whereas kings and managers depend on continuity and do not expect real change, prophets realize that every historical world has an end and that God is in control (21:15-23:50). Dr. Wiles explains that kings and managers believe that their worlds will last forever (23:51-25:16). When God’s spirit pours out to end the mourning, fruitfulness will abide in the new world (25:17-26:44). Self-absorbed kings and managers do not know this kind of new world because they live in a fantasy world, not a historical world of change (26:45-27:57). Dr. Wiles concludes with a word on how we must not follow the managerial approach to life; we must allow the pouring out of God’s spirit to give us hope for a new world during our mourning (27:58-29:35). A word of prayer is given (29:36-29:54). Two hymns end the service (29:36-32:59).

- (audio quality is poor) Fred B. Craddock, Jr. was Bandy Distinguished Professor of Preaching at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. A word of prayer begins the service (0:00-0:17). Visitors are welcomed and the announcement of this being the third annual of the Adams Lectures is made (0:18-1:47). Dr. Fred Craddock is introduced and his lectures will be on preaching and the practice of ministry (1:48-5:40). The anthem is sung (cut) (5:41-5:45). Dr. Craddock is honored to lecture (5:46-7:26). He informs the congregation that he will be discussing preaching in his lectures, with his first lecture focusing on the forms of biblical material in regards to the nature of preaching (7:27-9:47). He explains that just as architecture plays a role in creating a certain experience so does the shape of words, specifically the lively words of the Bible (9:48-12:00). Dr. Craddock refers to Matthew 10 to convey that preaching is “public whispering” (12:01-14:44). He mentions that gossip in church does not define public whispering (14:45-17:22). Preaching can affect someone’s life positively or negatively, which Dr. Craddock says is frightening (17:23-18:27). If a message is worth hearing, the preacher is worth listening to (18:28-19:31). Dr. Craddock clarifies that preaching is public whispering to the listener because one must “lean forward” to grab on to faith in order to hear the Gospel (19:32-23:24). It is called whispering because not everyone can hear it, not everyone has the “ear of faith” (23:25-26:55). Dr. Craddock speaks on the public opinion of Jesus as the Messiah from Matthew 16 (26:56-31:20; the audio ends abruptly without Dr. Craddock finishing the lecture).

- Fred B. Craddock, Jr. was Bandy Distinguished Professor of Preaching at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. A word of prayer is given (0:00-1:08). An anthem is sung (cut) (1:09-1:31). Dr. Craddock is introduced as a great teacher and storyteller (1:32-4:33). He enjoys being at the Seminary (4:34-5:58). He speaks on how preaching begins with hearing (5:59-6:28). He reiterates from his first lecture that faith is the whisper and preaching the Gospel is the shout; if they are separated, some will see Christianity as a secret and some will see the Gospel as “common chatter” (6:29-11:08). Dr. Craddock discusses that the liveliness of the words of the Bible, especially in the Gospel, preserve the whisper and the shout and that people choose not to listen to these words due to ignorance (11:09-32:27). He speaks about how George Washington and Abraham Lincoln could have lived longer lives if they had received modern surgical practices to express the possibility that if Jesus had not died He might not have asked God to forgive His ignorant crucifers (32:28-34:28). Dr. Craddock recalls the ignorance of a German friend who would have to wake up every morning to pray and sing hymns as part of the Nazi organization (34:29-35:38). He closes with conveying that “before you can shout it, you must hear the whisper” (35:39-37:14). A word of prayer is given (37:15-37:30). A hymn ends the service (37:31-37:42; the hymn is cut abruptly).

- Description:
- Fred B. Craddock, Jr. was Bandy Distinguished Professor of Preaching at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. A word of prayer begins the service (0:00-0:31). Dr. Craddock is introduced and his lecture is entitled “The Shout One” (0:32-2:39). An anthem is sung (cut) (2:40-2:43). Dr. Craddock is thankful for being allowed to lecture (2:44-4:44). He speaks on the burden of preaching, referring to how language is to be used in order to preserve the whisper and the shout (4:45-6:14). He compares preaching to understanding a riddle and sharing the answer (6:15-7:17). Dr. Craddock discusses how language must be lively so that the shout remains lively to prevent the burden of preaching (7:18-10:08). Reading widely, talking to children, and talking to the elderly are suggestions for keeping language lively (10:09-15:10). Dr. Craddock then explains that ultimately the liveliness of the Scripture should be pursued: this liveliness of words will flavor one’s language (15:11-28:43). He emphasizes his readiness to listen to God and being prepared to shout as he recalls the time he conversed with a man who comforted a woman because she had lost her sons in both World Wars (28:44-33:22). Dr. Craddock concludes with mentioning how the women in the Gospel of Mark did not shout that Jesus had risen and with reiterating being ready to listen to the shout (33:23-38:37). A word of prayer closes the service (38:38-38:52).

- (audio is poor towards the beginning) Fred B. Craddock, Jr. was Bandy Distinguished Professor of Preaching at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. A word of prayer begins the service (0:00-0:34). Dr. Craddock is introduced and thanked for his lectures (0:35-5:06). The choir sings (cut) (5:07-5:19). Dr. Craddock offers thanks for his introduction (5:20-7:04). He speaks on the burden of preaching—the effect of language—and refers back to Matthew 10 to reiterate the topic of the whisper and the shout (7:05-7:27). True preaching is always in a whisper to the listener and always in a shout to the speaker; the whisper and the shout cannot be separated (7:28-8:22). Dr. Craddock explains that when he talks about the shout he is not talking about volume, but rather about witnessing (8:23-11:38). Though the shout is an act of power and clarity to demonstrate an urgency of the message, it does not require one to elevate their voice (11:39-24:05). Dr. Craddock expresses the importance of staying in tune to the needs of the people in order to make the shout appropriate for their lives (24:06-30:07). He discusses that the greatest shout is when one proclaims the Gospel on a personal level, and he speaks on Jesus’ lordship and kingship (30:08-38:33). He closes with mentioning that whenever he shouts he will ask God to include His still small voice (38:34-39:09). A word of prayer ends the service (39:10-39:54).

Dr. Drummond addresses the congregation and speaks of preaching on “the great texts of the Bible” (11:01-12:10). He reads from Romans 12:1-2 (12:11-13:43). He gives a word of prayer (13:44-14:16). Dr. Drummond discusses that we can all be used by God according to His will (14:17-16:31). He provides a brief summary of the first eleven chapters of Roman (16:32-20:36). He then considers chapter 12 and speaks of surrendering our bodies to God—to give all that we are to Him (20:37-23:43). Dr. Drummond expresses Paul’s teachings within these two verses: do not conform to this world, but transform through the renewing of the mind so that we can see with God’s eyes (23:44-29:31). He explains that the purpose of these verses is to prove what is the will of God (29:32-29:56). He refers to the biblical story of when the prophet Samuel had to correct King Saul for his disobedience of God’s will (29:57-32:09). Obeying God’s will is what really matters in life (32:10-32:40). Dr. Drummond pledges to do the will of God, though he knows he will sometimes make mistakes, and challenges the congregation to do so as well (32:41-35:10). He concludes with a word of prayer (35:11-36:12).

- Caralie Brown was a retired teacher and gave this address for “Missionary Day.” Brown is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:12). Hymns are played (the second one is cut) (0:13-4:08). A word of prayer is given (4:09-5:07). Dr. George Braswell welcomes the congregation and reads Acts 2:37-47 (5:08-8:03). The choir sings a hymn (8:04-9:58). Kay Culpepper introduces Brown (9:59-12:26). Brown thanks the congregation and speaks of the need for a new church in northwest Raleigh (12:27-16:17). She was initially against developing a new church, but eventually God caused her to have a change of heart and she became involved with this new church (16:18-18:29). Referring to Acts 2, she focuses on not planting a church, but being a church (18:30-19:30). Brown reveals that the Gospel, the mission field, and each other are all that are truly needed for a church (19:31-20:53). She provides four beliefs that were taught at the new church in Raleigh: 1) Acts 2:37-47 will serve as a guide, 2) men and women are equal, 3) everyone is a minister, and 4) youth participation (20:54-23:50). The new church grew in spirit and numbers once it acquired a full-time pastor (23:51-25:49). Brown teaches that we plant the Gospel, not churches, and God grows the church (25:50-31:13). Success is not evident by numbers, but how many actively participate in following the cross as a unified body (31:14-37:19). Dr. Braswell thanks Brown for her address and gives a word of prayer (37:20-38:39).

- (the audio says 1990) Marvin L. "Marty" Reid was Professor of Greek and New Testament at SEBTS. Dr. Reid is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:08). A hymn is played (0:09-4:57). A word of prayer is given (4:58-5:54). A hymn is played (cut) (5:55-6:06). Scripture reading comes from 2 Samuel 7:4-17 and Mark 4:1-20 (6:07-11:00). A word of prayer is given (11:01-13:17). A song of worship is sung (13:18-17:02). Dr. Reid is introduced (17:03-18:25). Dr. Reid focuses on the parable of the sower in Mark 4 with the following lesson: as part of God’s kingdom, we are obligated to be diligent students of His Word (18:26-20:13). He breaks down the parable into sections, which consist of an introductory (verses 1-2), Jesus’ presentation of the story (verses 3-9), Jesus’ discussion of the purpose of parables to his disciples (verses 10-12), and Jesus’ explanation of the parable of the sower (verses 14-20) (20:14-21:52). He discusses the call to response in verses 3, emphasizing the theme of listening and understanding (21:53-22:56). Dr. Reid reveals the second theme of sowing the Word after introducing the main character, the sower (22:57-25:54). Within the parable are two groups of people—sowers and hearers of the Word (25:55-27:08). Dr. Reid provides two points of application: theological education is crucial for accurate interpretation of the Word and we must be diligent interpreters of the Word for the sake of others (27:09-32:04). Dr. Reid concludes with speaking of “the privilege of being in God’s kingdom and the responsibility of conveying the truth of the Gospel to others,” stressing the importance of theological education (32:05-33:50). A word of prayer ends the service (33:51-34:25).

- Dr. William H. Willimon was Minister to the University and Professor of the Practice of the Christian Ministry at Duke University in Durham, NC. Dr. Willimon is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:20). Hymns are played (0:21-4:50). A song of worship is sung (cut) (4:51-5:14). Community concerns are recognized (5:15-7:14). A word of prayer is given (7:15-10:20). Dr. Willimon is introduced (10:21-11:41). He begins his sermon by reading from Luke 4, the account of the temptation of Jesus (11:42-13:24). Dr. Willimon speaks of how we can all identify with Jesus and His temptation, however, it is hard to understand why Jesus stood there and quoted Scripture instead of showing Satan a sign that He is the Son of God (13:25-17:05). We all want signs from God proving that He is with us (17:06-21:33). When we seek for Jesus to prove who He is through signs, we become like Satan the tempter (21:34-28:59). Dr. Willimon explains that Jesus must resist our “lustful demands” that attempt to make Him who we want Him to be so that He can be the God that we do not deserve (29:00-30:51). Dr. Willimon concludes with blessing the congregation (30:52-31:07). A hymn closes the service (31:08-33:35).

- David Allan Hubbard was the president of Fuller Theological Seminary in California. Dr. Hubbard is announced as Chapel speaker with a message entitled “Proverbs: Wisdom and Success” (0:00-0:14). A hymn is played (0:15-3:48). Dr. Lewis Drummond welcomes special guests (3:49-4:48). Dr. Drummond offers a word of prayer (4:49-5:44). He provides a brief background of Fuller Theological Seminary and introduces Dr. Hubbard (5:45-10:35). The choir sings a song of worship (10:36-12:41). Dr. Hubbard thanks the Seminary for allowing him to lecture (12:42-13:55). He speaks of oral narration of the Bible and that the key to understand the wisdom works of the Bible and how to apply them pastorally is to hear them aloud (13:56-15:16). Scripture can be misunderstood and thus teachers are needed (15:17-16:28). Dr. Hubbard reveals that he will be speaking on Proverbs, Job, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Solomon with a focus on the techniques of communication (16:29-18:36). He begins this lecture with saying that Proverbs rises challenging questions and he breaks the book into sections: the collection of Solomon, the collection of 375 two-lined sayings, the words of the wise, more words of the wise, the proverbs of Solomon written by Hezekiah’s men, the words of Agur, the words of Lemuel, and the acrostic of the noble woman (18:37-21:29). Dr. Hubbard explains that there is more connectedness in Proverbs than we think and conveys that to understand Proverbs we must understand their original use (21:30-23:34). Proverbs were originally used within the clans of Israel and later refined for education and in courts as disciplinary guidelines for the elite youth (23:35-31:07). Dr. Hubbard speaks of the wisdom speeches in chapters 1-9 and their purpose of commending wisdom (personified as a woman) and commanding obedience (31:08-32:30). Next, he discusses the two-lined poetry sayings as well as some indicative, comparative, and numerical sayings (32:31-37:10). He refers to the artistic aspect of Proverbs with a discussion of the acrostic in which the writer began each first word of a verse with a Greek letter (37:11-39:30). He mentions that wisdom and folly are synonymous with righteousness and wickedness (39:31-40:50). Proverbs must be preached thematically, in a covenantal context to believers, and as preparation for calls to new discipleships (44:12-46:01). Dr. Hubbard indicates how wisdom literature has shaped our Trinitarian thought by referring to Proverbs 8 which provides a background for understanding the preexistence of Christ (46:02-48:05). He concludes by saying that Proverbs should be applied to others and personally and that we must understand what we read (48:06-49:51). He gives a word of prayer (49:52-50:09). Dr. Drummond thanks Hubbard and gives a prayer (50:10-51:00).

- Description:
- David Allan Hubbard was the president of Fuller Theological Seminary in California. Dr. Hubbard is announced as Chapel speaker with a message entitled “Job: Freedom and Suffering” (0:00-0:19). A hymn is played (0:20-2:57). A word of prayer is given (2:58-3:57). Background information regarding Dr. Ted Adams is provided and Dr. Hubbard is welcomed (3:58-8:23). The choir sings an anthem (8:24-14:01). Dr. Hubbard expresses Southeastern’s music (14:02-15:51). He begins his lecture by explaining how complex the book of Job is and the reward of understanding this complexity (15:52-19:22). From Job, we learn that we are not alone, that we should not emulate the friends in Job, and that we must open ourselves to God who has the right to work purposes unbeknownst to us (19:23-21:10). Dr. Hubbard discusses the stylized balance of Job: it begins and ends with a story consisting of complaints and disputations (21:11-31:35). He also speaks of the balanced movement in Job as one event transitions to another event (31:36-33:30). Dr. Hubbard emphasizes the ethos of Job as one that is a mixture of mystery and argument (33:31-35:50). He then delves into human vulnerability during suffering and human duty as well as divine freedom and sovereignty as themes of human life and divine reality (35:51-42:20). Covenantal themes exits in Job regarding the relationship between God and Job: the relationship allows Job to doubt and trust God and involves God speaking and Job bowing (42:21-45:17). Dr. Hubbard expounds on how the book of Job conveys that life is complicated and provides an understanding of the afterlife (45:18-47:25). Pastorally, the book of Job must be taken as a whole to prepare people for suffering, to give them the freedom to complain, and to show them the way to the cross during their suffering (47:26-51:53). A word of prayer concludes the lecture (51:54-52:19).

- Description:
- David Allan Hubbard was the president of Fuller Theological Seminary in California. Dr. Hubbard is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:16). A hymn is played (0:17-4:57). A word of prayer is given (4:58-5:27). A hymn is played (cut) (5:28-5:43). Esther and Ted Adams are briefly mentioned and Dr. Hubbard’s lecture on Ecclesiastes is revealed as being titled “Doubt and Rejoicing” (5:44-7:40). The choir sings an anthem (7:41-10:16). Dr. Hubbard begins his lecture with the question, “do you know what you are reading?” (10:17-13:20). Ecclesiastes is canonical and useful for present audiences as it helps readers to face certain weaknesses (13:21-17:28). Dr. Hubbard discusses the futility of life as a main theme (17:29-20:48). Ecclesiastes’ language and grammar suggests that it was written during an age later than Solomon’s age; the writer Qoheleth links himself to Solomon to grab readers’ attention (20:49-20:58). Dr. Hubbard conveys themes of futility and enjoyment, which are demonstrated by the use of proverbs (20:59-31:18). He then provides four assumptions of the book: crisis is used as a motivation, continuity is used as a method, conflict is the mood, and canonical balance is achieved (31:19-40:19). A relationship exists between Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, as Qoheleth provides a counterbalance to the abuse of wisdom (40:20-41:16). Ecclesiastes is similar to Job in that it stresses the freedom of God (41:17-43:59). Qoheleth draws attention to the realities of grace, death, life, and enjoyment (44:00-46:18). Dr. Hubbard explains that pastorally Ecclesiastes plays the role of removing false props or realities (46:19-47:34). He also urges listeners to take life as it comes and to encourage others to do the same (47:35-50:26). Joy is present in little things (50:27-52:40). He summarizes the prior key points: Ecclesiastes helps us to anticipate the better news, to take life as it comes, and to remove false props (52:41-53:14). Ecclesiastes has its own purpose and aids us in understanding Christ’s suffering and death on the cross (53:15-54:34). Dr. Hubbard concludes with a final word on how Qoheleth challenged the older wise men, preparing the way for the greater wisdom of Christ (54:35-55:26). Dr. Hubbard is thanked and certain guests are recognized (55:27-56:00). The benediction ends the lecture (56:01-56:19).
