What Jesus Said About the Meaning of Life and a Christian WorldviewSample

The meaning of life: Where do we come from?

There is hardly a question that is more being asked: What is life's meaning? Why am I here? Where do I come from? What is my purpose? Where do I go when I die? The Bible is the only book that gives a comprehensive and integrated answer to four questions.

In the beginning, was the Word… Through Him, all things were made, and without Him, nothing was made that has been made (John 1:1-3).

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse (Romans 1:20).

When people do not know their origin, they struggle to find meaning in life. We are not the result of an unguided and random process of development over millenniums. God created us. How do we know that God created us? The Bible says in Hebrews 11:3 that by faith, we know that God created us.

Obedience: Write down the things that stand out for you from these passages. How can you integrate these truths into your life?
