WHAT IS THE MEANING OF LIFE?

Hello!!!!

Welcome to my blog!

Without doubt, this is one of the most challenging, and yet one of the most fundamental, questions the mind can consider. People throughout history have pondered the meaning of life. Philosophers spin theories. Poets write songs. people drop out of the society to "find out what it's all about". Older people may remain within the 'establishment ', but they they still wonder. Obviously life is real. No one can deny that the world exists and people exist. You live, eat, sleep, breathe, and move. But do you understand why you exist? What is life really all about? To answer this question, we will look at three specific questions.
Where do I come from?
Why am I here?
Where am i going?

WHERE DO I COME FROM?

How do you explain the origin of the human race? Since we are alive, it is natural to wonder where we came from. One reason many people are confused about the meaning of life is that they do not understand the origin of life. To know why we are here, we must know where we came from.

BIBLICAL VIEW OF THE ORIGIN OF LIFE

Genesis 1:11-12 NLT

source

Then God said, "Let the land burst forth with every sort of grass and seed-bearing plant. And let there be trees that grow seed-bearing fruit. The seeds will then produce the kinds of plants and trees from which they came". And so it was. The land was filled with seed-bearing plant and trees, and their seed produce plants and trees of like kind. And so God saw that it was good. This all happened on the third day".

Genesis 1:21-28 NLT

God created great seas creatures and every sort of fish and every kind of bird. And God saw that it was good. Then God blessed them saying, "let the fish multiply and fill the oceans. Let the birds increase and fill the earth." This happened on the fifty day.
And God said, "Let the earth bring forth every kind of animal - livestock, small animals, and wildlife". And so it was. God made all sorts of wild animals, livestock, and small animals, each able to reproduce more of it's own kind. And God saw that it was good.
Then God said, "Let us make people in our image, to be like ourselves. They will be masters over all the livestock, wild animals, and small animals".
So God created people in his own image; God patterned them after himself;male and female he created them.
God blessed them and told them, "Multiply and fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters over the fish and birds and all the animals"

All kinds of life were originally created by God in six days. God is an eternal, living Spirit, all-wise, all powerful Creator. Instead of life coming from life - the eternally living God. Living things reproduce after their own kind, because God created them that way. And is unlike animals, because he is "in the image of God". We did not evolve from animals, but we share God's nature.

Acts 17:24, 25, 28

For He is the God who made the world and everything in it. Since He is Lord of heaven and earth, He doesn't live in man-made temples, and human hands can't serve needs - for He has no needs. He Himself gives life and breathe to everything, and he satisfies every need there is. For in Him we live and move and exist. As one of your own poets says, 'We are his offspring.

The world and everything in it were made by God. He is the source of life and gives all the blessings that are necessary to life. Here is an explanation for the origin of life that fits what we see around us, fits the nature of man as compared to animals, and we will see that it provides a satisfying explanation for the meaning of life. The Bible explanation makes far more sense than any other alternative explanation about the origin of life. Once again, you and I came from eternity (God) and we shall return to eternity.

God bless you
