What Shall It Profit You If You Gain The Whole Pretty Girls But Lose Your Own Soul? It begins with that one, right? The one you thought was your one and only, the only one meant for you, that would immediately solve all your problems in life once you just had her, right? The one you thought was all you needed in life, that would fill that void you felt inside of you, so if you just had her, you would automatically become complete and won't be needing anything else, right? The one you would do anything for, cross all the mountains or oceans on Earth for, and even commit a crime just to have, because you believed you couldn't live or be able to survive without her as the air you breathed, right? So your wishes finally came true, and after you had her for the first time, it was like hurray, fireworks and celebrations. You finally got what you so desperately desired and hence you felt satisfied and as though you're on top of the world. Then you slept with her again, and it wasn't as satisfying as the first time but it's still okay. But then you have her the third, fourth, fifth, sixth time, and you begin to feel like "hmm... Am I sure she's really the one and I didn't make a mistake?" You still feel the emptiness you had at first before you met her, so it seems she wasn't really able to fill up that void anyways, even though it seemed so at first. And while contemplating what next to do with her, you looked out the window and saw another beautiful girl walking, and you'd be like, "that must be the real one" you were seeking. The one that would be able to achieve what you desired from the first one but which she couldn't give you. And so you also do everything to have her as well and when you've finally done so, you initially feel good as with the first one, but after a while you begin to lose interest as well. Then you see another pretty gal and you'd be like, "oh no, this must surely be the one that I was seeking all my life"..., however when you also succeed to have her as well, na still eyenikem disappointment after a while. But you still don't give up but keep trying and trying, because you think despite failing with all your previous attempts, you'd eventually succeed and finally get that which you seek. That's how you'd have the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eight, ninth, tenth, .... hundredth, and still counting, but na still the same final result. You still felt unsatisfied and empty inside eventually. It appears that's how King Solomon started, trying to find the one and only who would quench that desire and thirst (lust) in him, but before he would know it, he already had over a thousand wives and concubines. Yet after he had consumed all his lust upon them, he still felt very empty and miserable inside as they all couldn't quench that lustful desire in him, that he had cry out and confess that "vanity upon vanity, all is vanity!" Ecclesiastes 12:8 But unfortunately, by the time he had realized this, it appeared too late, because while trying to satisfy his lustful desires with all those beautiful girls, a lot of things were damaged in the process, some beyond repair, and he had gotten too deep into it that he couldn't come out anymore, so he ended up a very miserable unfulfilled man filled with regrets. So is that the same result you're still desperately seeking to achieve, and do you have to get to that same point he got to before you realized the same thing? Jesus said: For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36 (KJV) Despite that Solomon had a lot of possession and riches, including many (a thousand plus) wives and concubines, and was arguably the richest the world has ever known, but even at that he didn't have the whole world, yet according to Jesus, even if he had gained the whole world, it wouldn't be worth the loss of his soul. That void in one's soul can never be filled by the whole world, including all the pretty women in it, that's why regardless of how many of them any man gains, he's still feel empty at the end. That void can only be filled by God because He is the only One can truly complete any man and is what man needs to be complete that would him not to need anything else, so unless it's Him a man gains, every effort to fill the void would be "vanity upon vanity, all is vanity". God bless. 21 Likes 4 Shares |

There is something infantile in the presumption that somebody else has a responsibility to give your life meaning and point… The truly adult view, by contrast, is that our life is as meaningful, as full and as wonderful as we choose to make it. 21 Likes |

The pretty girls profit me. At least there is clear evidence of their existence. If your god is half as real as those girls, your pastors won't be out chasing girls and sleeping with people's wives. They won't be afraid of death and walking around with 200 bodyguards or amassing wealth in a world they claim is not long for destruction. I wonder why someone who talks to a deity that is capable of showing him the wonders of the afterlife will still be afraid of losing his own fleeting life here. So I guess the real question is what shall it profit you to lose the pretty girls and there is still no soul or afterlife as you imagined it? 25 Likes 4 Shares |

jesusjnr2020:Oga keep quiet if u don’t know what to say Solomon was not foolish Read your bible you will notice that back then having ladies was not more of a big deal. Almost everyone we call our fathers in the Bible Had more than one woman to go with Abraham had his wife’s maid David had his servant killed just to get his wife Samson we know the story Solomon we know Don’t know more about Joseph 2 Likes |

specialmati: Dumb moronic nonsense. Maybe you can't be wiser than your fathers. But I can be wiser than them. You are obviously not very bright. If you think someone who lived in the village in 1901 is wiser than you, it's not my fault that you aren't evolved or intelligent. Your education is obviously a waste ![]() 14 Likes |
