Ecc 3:18 | MHM | STEP | v. 18 : Solomon explains that God allows people to see their true nature. I said in my heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might test them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts . Without God, people are not much better than animals. When people ignore God and live only for this world, they lose the dignity God gave them and act like beasts, thinking only about their bodies and not their souls.
