Bro nobody has answered that question in a comprehensive way,they said God created good and evil and gave man the will to choose between any two of his own creation.man was decieved to choose evil and started suffering is that a malevolent creator,that is why I like ourtruth247 teachings very comprehensive and reasonable unfortunately nairaland deletes his topics for reasons unknown.
If you had been forced to do good
It is exactly you that would have protested why God would make you do good against your will

Tell that to your landlord when your rent expires.

No hustle na, hunger go wire ur brain.
You guys always understand things by literally view, use idiomatic views you will understand that your comment is baseless.
Nobody is against hussling and doubling up, the post is to justify that nothing lasts forever.
Of what essence does humanity exists??
Of what course??
It's still baseless since there's no course for existentialism. You are far from understanding that .

Life is useless to the ignorant. Life is not useless ooooh. After this life there is another life. Life is just like a journey that doesn't end. Death isn't the end of life. It's just a passage into another life.
Bravo

Life is really like that and what we need is to remain focused and trust in God our Creator

Imagine life as footballers playing in a field or actors displaying in a cinema/Tele with spectators watching only that in life,the Spectator(s) is God & the host of heaven with the winners/righteous winning a handshake and eternity with God in heaven and the losers/sinners relegated to hell fire.

Luke 12:22-23 NLT
Then, turning to his disciples, Jesus said, "That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life-whether you have enough food to eat or enough clothes to wear. [23] For life is more than food, and your body more than clothing.

Luke 12:4-5 NLT
"Dear friends, don't be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot do any more to you after that. [5] But I'll tell you whom to fear. Fear God, who has the power to kill you and then throw you into hell. Yes, he's the one to fear.

Luke 12:6-7 NLT
"What is the price of five sparrows-two copper coins? Yet God does not forget a single one of them. [7] And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows.


Luke 12:16-21 NLT
Then he told them a story: "A rich man had a fertile farm that produced fine crops. [17] He said to himself, 'What should I do? I don't have room for all my crops.' [18] Then he said, 'I know! I'll tear down my barns and build bigger ones. Then I'll have room enough to store all my wheat and other goods. [19] And I'll sit back and say to myself, "My friend, you have enough stored away for years to come. Now take it easy! Eat, drink, and be merry!"' [20] "But God said to him, 'You fool! You will die this very night. Then who will get everything you worked for?' [21] "Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God."

LIFE IS STEWARDSHIP UNDER GOD'S GUIDANCE AND LEADING. DON'T START THIS YEAR WITHOUT SINCERELY ACCEPTING JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD, SAVIOUR, & HELPER.

Matthew 11:28-30 NLT
Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. [29] Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. [30] For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light."


Join us tonight physically or virtually. You will get to understand the meaning of life more.
God bless you!

1Cor.15.19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. (KJV)

I used to reason like you. Sometimes I wonder if I am real... you know, that kind of reasons. Only Jesus Christ gives life a meaning. Without the hope of eternal life...omo nothing is worth it.

Every morning, you see everybody running up and down like mad monkeys just to get one paper with a design on it. After all that work, you buy this and that and pamm, all the money is gone! It's crazy!

You repeat the same cycle till you're old and die. You carry nothing with you! All the things you worked soo hard to acquire, you carry nothing!

Hmmmmm What a stupid useless life!

A test from whom? You folks going around thinking life struggles is some sort of test are seriously off your hinges. grin
Just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it ain't there.

Enlightenment is not religiosity, hypocrisy or eye service, it is being true to oneself, and everything around us...this is the beginning of the journey of enlightenment.

Summary: You have finished December salary😂

Those who always have more money than they need will never tell you life is worthless and useless... same with those who already attained time freedom & financial freedom.

Except they made few wrong choice of associates.
my dear,a visit to the ICU unit of the hospital will reset your understanding. And know that being a patient in it can happen to anyone(Anthony Joshua) no matter your preparation yes even from the comfort of your bedroom.

Godmind2022:
This seems to be a self consolation theory. If you don't have plenty money you gonna get something to encourage yourself with. If you make a lot of money, you are happy and you want to make more. If you tried to make money and you failed and failed, you become a philosopher. "What is the essence of life", you begin to ask

The bad side of the theory is that it can get out of hand to the extent that you don't have a reason good enough to be alive in again.
You be badoo..., this just the spirit of good thinking on how to play smart on life.

Is not about jumping up and down looking for money. What matters is finding joy, happiness and satisfaction in the one God gives you. Money. Can never be enough, just have the habit of gratitude to God and see yourself finding and having peace of mind.
Simple..

All it takes right now is to pick yourself up and see a clinical psychologist. There are drugs that can improve your mood significantly. Trust me on this

1. See what? The fumes from your many religious delusions? Oh, yes, a lot of us see it and know it for what it is. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

2. The only form of enlightenment worth mentioning is that which comes from deep self-reflection and self-realization— only a dive back into the self is worth anything in this life—, one that not only helps the individual put their existence in the best perspective but also helps them better shove the ego back where it truly belongs... way back behind all that matters. Any other kind of enlightenment, including that fueled by religious fume, can be obtained by even those who are high on drugs. 🥱🥱🥱

3. You cannot be true to yourself while at the same time being true to everything around you. Those who are true to self never seek external validations.(It is a literal impossibility.) So, clearly, what you have and know is born of delusions and not truth. 🥱🥱🥱

The only way to enjoy life is to stop chasing money


I figured that out 3 yrs ago


One mumu sit down and designed paper and put designs on it, then ask people to start working like monkeys so you can give them paper

Or digits on a computer screen

They term it money


I will rather live my life the way I like it,



Just imagine a world where Money is eradicated,


Who is the wicked person that invented the concept of money sef

Life would have been so easy

If you need something, you go and get it

Don't tell me crime will increase, because now that there is money, 99% of crime is because of this same money!!!!!!! angry angry angry angry angry angry angry angry angry angry
Seems you missed concept of trade by barter system, just isolate yourself to a desert, out of human civilization, by this action you can truly escape monetary transactions affecting thy soul negatively. Just my piece of advice!

So much ignorance inone post.
I said that's what the Gnostics said. But, of course, you both are allergic to knowledge.

Go put in a good AI like Grok. Ask Grok AI "what did the Gnostics believe about the creator of this world, the inferior God, the fool, the Demuige, and why there's suffering in the world?"

U have rushed to medications suddenly.
Isn't that too fast?
As the scientist you are, why not critically look into his questions and approach them from factual end than the depressive reaction.
An overzealous clergyman would want to approach it from religious standpoint without critically looking into the concerns.
Don't those concerns bother you?
Haven't you at some point in life thought of things like that?
Did you ever recommend antidepressants or mood stabilizers immediately?

An unexamined life (where u swallow everything without reflection and self- reflection) is not worth living. This means you would have prescribed medications to Socrates, Aristotle, Aneximenes, and many more.

Those are critical questions coming from a critical thinker.

musicwriter:
The question has already been answered thousands of years ago but it was suppressed by religions, beginning from the rise of Christianity.

Preceding Christianity, there was an intellectual, highly spiritual sect called the Gnostics who logically explained why we suffer in the world.

The Gnostics said that this world is not the real world, rather this world was created by an inferior, power-seeking, imposter God who has deceived humanity that he's the real God.

Hear me well......

The real God is not the God of religion, so all the explanation by religion is garbage. The God of religion is actually the one holding us hostage and demanding worship.

The real God is unknown and unknowable. But you can can try to know it using logic, not by believing.

You'll get more details on what has been said above in the book "what is Satan? What is Lucifer? The biggest secret in the world" which you can find and download in one of my threads.

Having said that, the reason we suffer is because of GREED, which in turn is because the creator of this world (the inferior God) created an imperfect world in the first place
The real God is very much known
People believe in him and enjoy his greatness here on earth.
If you believe that God can be known by logic
Then you are saying that God who created the Universe can be understood by mere mortal reasoning
By the brain he has given human, you want to understand God which is not a Human.
There are god's of religions but, including gnosticism which is a religion.
But
There is only one God
That even created all gnostics and the first person to be confused into that lopsided belief.
It is that God that created the earth on which the early gnostics existed to even develop gnosticism.
But
The way to that God is very glaring and clear.
Not confusing to those who know him already.
But for you people who believe you know God by Logic, live your lives by logic, wake up by logic, sleep by logic, I wonder how empty life may be for you
I really hope you find solace in the truth later on

Don't put the blame on "Life".
Blame Balablu who has scattered our economy with hyper inflation due to his wuru-wuru economic policies that makes you get less value of the labour (work) you put in.

In an excellent economy, you wouldn't rant like this.
you don’t seem to understand the OP. Even if you get the best things in this life, it’s the same
Hustle , acquire, grow old and die. But in the end you go with nothing you kill your self working so hard for

it's not matter of economy or money....try to understand the message he's passing....after the money what next....so, to me nothing special about life...we're just hating and ranting for nothing...we have to understand the reality of life...impact people's life if you can...show love if you can

It's not a subject for debate or argument. Life is not about plenty words. There is no contention here.

So in one word you re demonising money lol.

See money is a tool , like using a fish hook to catch a fish. Money is the hook, the focus is not on the hook but on the fish unfortunately need a messiah to open their head and pass reality messages that reveals themselves every day/ aspect of our life.

You claim gnostic precedes christianity but there no proof to that. In fact, it is the other way round.

You can can make this bold false claim, what else are you saying that is tru.


Oh...I visited your blog and it's same ol, same ol trash.
Re: This Life Is So Meaningless And Useless! by Solofresh2: 6:07pm On Jan 02
You are the architect of the life you are living now.Just do the right thing you know is best for any situation and also balancing is key.
Failure to do these things will lead to your hell again when you come back in a different form.
By the way, your heaven and hell are here on this earth.You just have to choose wisely

The Op is right..
But let me tell you, Purpose gives you satisfaction and makes life beautiful.

You need to ask yourself Why was i born or created?
What problem was i created to solve?
The moment you can answer these questions, your life will be beautiful. And even though you are aware that you won't be here forever, what you've solved on earth answers it all.
So ask yourself Why was i born?What's my purpose.
the most valid point I have read on this. Thanks bro
