What does the Bible say about the futility of life?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that life is ultimately futile without a relationship with God, as seen in Ecclesiastes 12:13.

In the book of Ecclesiastes, Solomon reflects on the futility of life lived apart from God. He explores various pursuits—wisdom, pleasure, and work—only to conclude that they lead to vanity and emptiness. Ecclesiastes 12:13 emphasizes that the whole duty of man is to fear God and keep His commandments. This realization highlights that true fulfillment is only found in knowing God through Christ, who transforms the futility of our existence into a purposeful life. Without this relationship, all efforts and achievements are ultimately meaningless.
