What Is The Meaning Of Life?

Started by finti52 pages

You think so? Can you bring earthly possessions with you after you die?
who cares of earthly possessions, when you die you die nothing more.

The only way you can be fruitful in life is that if you share Christ to others and become saved.
😂 😂 😂 yeah right

Yes. But I also do not want to see you or anyone else go to hell so I will keep on trying.
it aint up to you where I wanna be
next time you want to make a comment on hell, please know about it.
and you know about it how? ever been there, or met anyone who has. Hell is a myth nothing more to know about it

God has not failed, He conquered over Satan when Jesus died on the cross and He has reached through to the world through other people.
well if he conquered over Satan why worry about hell at all,

The reason why people stray from the Gospel is because Satan is decieving you into not believing it
Nah I made that desicion all by myself,

know the last thing you WANT is to listen to that Bible and us Christains, but it is what you NEED to hear.
this is what you christian fail to understand. I DONT NEED TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR FAIRY TALE BIBLE AT ALL. I`ve had it in school for 9 years and it is just another book too me, nothing more. If I needed to hear about it I would have continued to fool myself reading and listening to preaching BS artists.

As I said before christians overestimate the importance of the bible, it might be holy to you all, but to me it is a book full of crap

oh please enlighten us on the prophecy fulfiled

Glad to. First, the formation of the country of Israel was prophesised. Nehemiah 1:8-9 (God talking to Nehemiah) "If you are unfaithful (talking about the Jews), I will scatter you among the nations, but if you return to Me and obey My commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for My Name." Sure enough the Jews came from across the nations of the earth and formed Israel in the 1940's.

It also says throughout the Bible that the earth would experience great birth pains near the end times (the time when Jesus will come again). Have you noticed that in the past 100 years or so earthquakes are happening for frequently then ever before in history? Did you know that there are more wars going on now then ever before in history too? Matthew 24:6a "You will hear of wars and rumors of wars" Matthew 24:7-8 "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains."

The Bible also talks about many false teachers and teachings in the end times. Matthew 24:10-11 "At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate eachother, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people."

II Peter 2:1-3 "But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth to disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping."

II Peter 2:10b-12 "Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings; yet even the angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish."

II Peter 2:17-18 "These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them. For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of sinful human nature, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error."

YOU are fullfilling Biblical prophecy, Matthew 10:22a "All men will hate you because of Me..." John 15:18 "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to this world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you."

Mark 4:11-12 "He (Jesus) told them, 'The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you (believers in Christ). But to those on the outside everything is said in parables so that, 'they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!''"

You see the word of God right now, but you do not perceive it. You hear the word of God spoken here, but you do not understand it.

Mark 4:14-15 "The farmer (God) sows the word (Bible). Some people are like the seed along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they (you) hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them."

Matthew 10:32-33 "Whoever acknowledges Me before men, I will also acknowledge him before My Father in heaven. But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before My Father in heaven."

John 8:47 "He who belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God."

Exactly. So what can you get on this earth that will end up being fruitfull if you cannot do anything with it after you die?

"it aint up to you where I wanna be..."
God tells us Christains to go out and share to all people the Word of God. Believe me, you do not want to go to hell.

"...and you know about it how? ever been there, or met anyone who has. Hell is a myth nothing more to know about it"
Have you ever seen the big bang? Ever met anybody who has? Is there a picture of it? The big bang is a myth and nothing more. The Bible is truth, and I know about hell because I've read about it in the Bible.

"well if he conquered over Satan why worry about hell at all"
Before Jesus died on the cross, there was a seperation between God and man (that's why the Jews had to give animal sacrifices). Then Jesus died on the cross and that gap between God and man was linked by Jesus. Jesus suffered the death that all of us deserved, so that we won't have to. Through Jesus we are saved. God has won, closed the gap that Satan established.

"Nah I made that desicion all by myself"
Satan was the motive behind your decision.

"I DONT NEED TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR FAIRY TALE BIBLE AT ALL."
Then how can you have a meaningful life? Then how will you get to heaven?

Sure enough the Jews came from across the nations of the earth and formed Israel in the 1940's.
first of all there were plenty of jews there in the first place, it was under British control and called Palestine. Somehow the UN got hung up in the biblical thingie and DONATED Israel to the Jews. Guess they were on a guilt trip for the nazis and others treatment of jews. So it was an act of UN and the Palestine and arabs cared so little for that agreement that they are still at it with the Israeli government. Without UN Israel would never have been under Jewish control.

The earthquakes and so on on earth moves in cycles, it was a lot of volcanics and earthquake activity around 3500 years ago and around 1200 years ago too.

And the rest of your postings of biblical descriptions, well ska 57 a lot of work for nothing, as I posted earlier the bible and NT is to me plain BS.
SO those tales could have been just as much out of Little Red Riding Hood as of the bible, same end result since both being fairy tales.

And as of wars, well yes we have many conflicts today. Always been plenty of conflicts throughout history too though, only thing it easier to get hold of them now because of the media.

Do you know how many millions of Jews immigrated into Israel though? It doesn't matter HOW it happened, the Bible prophesied it, and it happened. God used the UN as a tool that brought the Jews back to Israel.

But your own evolution-believing scientists even said that there are more going on now then ever before.

It is easier to get hold of them because of the media, but there are still more conflicts going on now than ever.

Yeah I know millions immigrated to Israel after the Jews got their own nation as a present from the UN, That god used UN as a tool is just laughable

But your own evolution-believing scientists even said that there are more going on now then ever before.
as far as they know

And you are proving EVERY-SINGLE-ONE-OF-THEM yet again
to be fairy tales yes

It is easier to get hold of them because of the media, but there are still more conflicts going on now than ever.
name todays conflicts then

I have often heard people talk about the bible, call it a fairy tale... I developed a test.

1} Are there any other collaberating sources for your belief that dislike it. For instance, scrooge talking about that bastard Santa helping his workers. Yes, for instance Josephus, the Roman teacher's pet. E.G.

Testimonium Flavianum: about this time lived Jesus, a wise man, "if indeed one ought to call him a man". For he was the one who wrought surprising feats and was a teacher of such people as accept the truth gladly. He won over many Jews and many of the Greeks. "He was the Christ". When Pilate, upon hearing him accused by men of the highest standing among us, had condemned him to be crucified, those who had in the first place come to love him did not give up their affection for him. "On the third day he appeared to them restored to life, for the prophets of God had prophesised these and countless other marvellous things about him". And the tribe of Christians, so called after him, has still till to this day not disappeared.

Some bits were added by fake christian bastards, and i put marks to highlight them.

2} Is there archeological evidence. For instance, a wolf wearing man clothes and a crown in an ancient grave for the werewolf cause. Yes, there have been several discoveries. One such is the existance of the Hittites. Thought a biblical myth till their capital was discovered in Turkey.

3} Any buriel sites of actual people. If the abandoned Tomb of Snow White was discovered, we could believe. Yes, the tomb and rotting remains of Caiaphas (John 11:49-50) was discovered by workers constructing a park, south of Jersusalem.

4} The structures mentioned- are they fictional? No, for instance water tunnels in 2 Kings 20:20, and 2 Chronicles 32:30, built by King Hezekiah to provide water during the Assyrian siege.

5} Finally, have there been obsenely intelligant people rooting for our heroes. If Steven Hawkings wore horns, and typed out "Thor Rules!!!" continuesly, then it would be so much more respectable to honour ragnarak. Yes, for instance C.S. Lewis, writer of the Narnia series, was a devoted christian who wrote many books.

That is why I compare the bible/NT with Homers Illiad, actual events and places was used in a history where the happenings was alter to make a better or more suitable read

One such is the existance of the Hittites. Thought a biblical myth till their capital was discovered in Turkey
yes Hattusa, though Hittites have been written about in Egyptian scriptures, very little about the Hittites found in Hebrew scriptures.

Pathetic. I was explaining how the entire bible can be verified. The equivelent of finding the wooden horse, and Achilles' armour. Actual miracles examined by actual historic people, actual events written on the walls.

ska57, you know what? That shit doesn't prove a goddamn thing.It's true, there are alot of Chrisitain haters out there...but so what? That doesn't mean you are going to heaven, or if there even is one. Black people were hated, are they going to heaven? Native Americans were hated, are they going to heaven? Gays are hated, especially by Christians, are they going to heaven? Is it ok for Christians to hate and noone else?

Someone is always hating someone else, so that "you hate me, and Jesus said you'd hate me, so im going to heaven" bullshit doesn't work.

Also, the fact that some of what the Bible has in it is actual history is not proof that everything in the Bible is true. Oscar Wilde includes current(for that time) history in his book "The Portrait of Dorian Gray", does that make it true? Bram Stoker used current(again, for that time) history in "Dracula", does that make it true? Homer used current(once again, for that time) history for the Illiad AND the Odessey. Does that make any of it true?

Shit, Christian's arguments have more holes in them than a homeless man's socks.

Pathetic.
actually exactly how i find the bible

I was explaining how the entire bible can be verified
thats why I drew parallels with Homers Illiad, things can be verified due to the fact that stories were based on actual events, persons and places.

It is the truth though.

Then why didn't she say the purpose of life is to worship God? (sorry by the way)

Because in life we are supposed to worship God and to do what he asks. This isn't the same as what the purpose of life is. Life is just practice before we get to Heaven. Whay not make the most of it?

(People who arnt the same relegion as me, dont bother in arguing because im not going to reply to you unless you are who i just quoted)

What religion are you?

Roman Catholic

It's thought that it was started over a trade dispute. Not a woman. Historians don't say that there was a wooden horse, as far as I know. I'm saying, the biblical wooden horse can be found, carbon dated, and put in a museum, e.g. it's hard to find flaws in the stories, unlike the odyssey, illiad, Aeneid or any other greek or roman myth.

You really annoy me. Pathetic; that's how i find you. The bible is a incredible piece of work made by many artists, used as a historical source with surprising accuracy. Around two billion people base their lives on it. Harry Potter doesn't have that following. It has stories of ordinary people living in a world where it seemed that God had a personal Vendetta to Kick Them In The Butt. It has stories of Romances transcending all classes. Amusing little bits where pompous bureaucrats are built up, and smashed. It is not a pathetic piece, only a truly brazen twit would say that.

Just stepping in here for that; Chrisitans cannot ( Or moreso, are not allowed *to* ) hate as its considered a sin...Christians who *hate* as said are "false" christians and one would say.
Christian sociology revolves around all things beeing equal in the eye of god, and no desticinction can be made, except for the male/female sexes.....

Not getting into the debate, as they ahve been fought by men and women a lot more smarter then al of us together, and even they were revolving around each other, pointlessly.

The meaning of life: To be born, suffer, and then die.

That's where you're wrong. You have no right to say a person's life is hollow or missing something just because you have a dependency on god. That's your choice, but recognise that we're all different and what may give your life meaning may mean nothing to someone else. That doesn't mean you or the bible has the right to criticise the quality or value of their lives.
