1 | What Is The Meaning Of Life? | Bible general Archive 2 | PraiseLord | 125852 | ||
What is the meaning of life? I have been going to church regularly, and am devoted. But when my friend asked me this question, I found myself unable to answer it. What are we on Earth for, why were we made? What is our purpose on Earth? What is God's purpose? Are we supposed to spread the message that He sent his only son to die for our begotton sins? It may seem simple, but really, a good answer is hard to come by. Can anyone help me? |
