What Is The Essence Of This Life? by ayjay45(op): 5:25pm On Mar 10, 2024
As we sleep, wake up everyday, go to work or school, strive to make money.

Is the ultimate purpose of life making money or what is it exactly?

Purpose of life is to LIVE and DIE

How u live it is ur concern. JUST LIVE AND DIE AFTER A TIME

Its a 2 side of a coin

Do not listen to him. He is trying to mislead you into hell. That is not the purpose of life. There is another life that is forever and ever and ever after death. We must live a purposeful life so that we do not fall to the left path after death and we go on to live forever and ever and ever. The purpose of life is much but to become the visible expression of the invincible God is the first purpose of life. The next one is for us to learn about God, His ways and His deeds and to become vessels worthy of God's divine kingdom

the essence of life is everything you do and how to strive to be a better person... you need to value every little things you do in your life and/or value everything you have RIGHT NOW in your life... and enjoy that process as you grow as a human being.

We are here to learn how to give and receive Divine Love.

That's the great secret we have been denied the knowledge and understanding.

We are here to learn how to be a conscious channel for God

To live a fulfilled life is to live for Christ

No you're wrong, the purpose of life is to learn about the deities, Sango, Ogun and co. Without them there is no everlasting life.

Both life and death have no purpose

No essence, just a biological, evolutionary process...that process birthed you, and everything else. Money and other material things are human machinations has nothing to do with the universe.

You are wrong. Man must search for His creator and after finding His creator, Man must submit wholly to the will of His creator


Man must then I tune with his own Spirit become regenerated by the Spirit of God so He becomes acceptable to God. Failure to do this, such a being will be thrown into eternal unquenchable fire after death

People often think it’s “how long” they spend on the earth that matters but it’s actually “how well”
To live is to die
Just find purpose and make your life more interesting
Because it can and will be taken away from you one day

Eternal fire is not a joke. And it will.be too late to make amends and repent after death. Accept Jesus Christ today because there is no repentance after death. And dying in sin means to be thrown into eternal fire

To help as many people as possible.

That is the only legacy that counts after we are long gone and the only act that has eternal rewards.

Your money and material things will fade away.

This is true because some people die young. A 1 day old baby can die like a 1 year old.

We are talking cosmology, and life here not theology, theology is just a facet of it.

There is a supreme controller, this is possible, but not in the way religion make it seem, religion believe the supreme entities are different and multiple... Muslims believe their Allah is the one, Christian have theirs Buddhists have theirs, how many supreme entities are there?

My brother if you think about this religion thing clearly and read history of how these religion came into being you will overstand.

You better run and find a clergy that knows well enough about hell fire and eternal fires of hell to straighten your understanding and put you in the right path. You are in danger of hell from your ignorance and ignorance is not an excuse

the greatest curse is for someone to live forever and to live forever in a palace of gold and diamonds is the peak of mental and emotional torture,even people that are talking about heaven do you think you will still retain your consiousness and awareness as a human being in heaven?most of you are just trying to see and interpret another realm using our meagre intelligence as human beimgs
