What's The Purpose Of Life ? by SeniorMan715(m): 3:01pm On Nov 10, 2022
Have you ever wondered if there is more to life than just playing, working, marrying, raising a family, and growing old? Does life have some meaning?
King Solomon gathered enormous wealth and pursued pleasure but found that those things brought no lasting sense of purpose. He identified what brought real purpose in life when he wrote: “The conclusion of the matter, everything having been heard, is: Fear the true God and keep his commandments. For this is the whole obligation of man.” (Ecclesiastes 12:13)
First, we have to ask, How did life begin? After considering the remarkable design of our brain and the rest of our body, you have to conclude that a wise Creator is behind it all. Psalm 139:14. If so, then he must have made us for a reason! Learning that reason can add great meaning to our life. Why were humans created? God blessed the first human pair and gave them a thrilling assignment. His purpose was for them to fill the earth, make it a paradise, and live forever.​ Genesis 1:28, 31. God’s purpose was delayed when humans rebelled against his rule. But God did not give up on us​ or his purpose. The Bible assures us that God has been working to save faithful people and that his purpose concerning the earth will be fulfilled! So God wants you to see life the way he meant it to be! The Bible can help you learn how you can personally fit into God’s purpose.

If you need a book and deities to tell you your purpose in life, then something is wrong with you.

King Solomon said it all.
Adam and Eve broke The WILL of God.
Jesus came to fulfil all Righteousness and thought us to have faith, hope peace and love for God and in ourselves. JESUS told us that we are The Light, the Goodness and The Life of The World.

The packaged product can’t think for themselves just like you that’s why you need a forged manual. winkDumb reasoning.

I'm still searching for the answer to this question. Whenever I feel as if I have come close to figuring it out, the more I realize that I am still further from the truth.

The purpose of life is to become like God. We are help to overcome and become like our father in heaven.

Clue!

Whose purpose are you interested in seeing?

Is it Your own purpose?

Or the purposes of The Owner/Creator and Giver of Life?

Or, someone elses purpose?

That is one of the life's biggest question people ask which scientists and philosophers or clergymen can't answer
I once asked that question too and I understand how it felt
Just as you can only ask a carpenter the purpose of making a furniture, it is wise for us to ask the Maker about why we are here or the purpose of life.

The answer is found in Genesis 1:27 and Ecclesiastic 11:13
The original purpose of life was for man to live a perfect, happy lives forever on earth and to take care of the animals
For humans to enjoy a meaningful life, which includes you, we must live our lives in harmony with God's will. This brings us true happiness both spiritually, emotionally and physically and brings us in line to receiving everlasting life (John 17:3)

The answer is, all things were created for his pleasure.

Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

The reason for our existence is to honor and glorify him.
