In the book of Ecclesiastes, the wise man spoke of the futility of life “under the sun.” One of the reasons he saw this as futile was that he would leave the fruit of his labor to someone else. The one receiving it could squander it or act foolishly with it. This caused the wise man to despair. This raises the question: What should happen with our wealth and/or possessions when we die? Are there principles and instructions in God’s word that will help us? Yes, and we will consider some points here.
