Just do what Makes you Happy!

We hear this idea all throughout the world today. As long as you're happy. Follow your heart. I just want to be happy. Life only comes around once so do what makes you happy. Lifes to short find happiness.

1 Corinthians 15:32

32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.

Paul had interaction with this philosophy even in his day. Solomon thought about this idea also.

Ecclesiastes 8:1515 Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.

“Buy the truth, and sell it not”

— Proverbs 23:23
