Hello, everyone!

[Chris04]

I've actually been on CF since late 2021, but I haven't done an introduction yet, so here I am, haha.

Well, my name is Christian, but I usually go by Chris. I am a college student studying computer science, and I originally joined these forums to fellowship with fellow Christians. My purpose in life, from what I've seen so far, is a bit different from everyone elses. I'm still questioning whether I truly deserve to libe, but God will show me in the future. So far, from what I've seen throughout my 19 years on Earth, it's leaning towards no, but I don't fully know yet.


Anyways, I've been raised on God ever since I came out the womb, and I read the bible daily. So now, I come on here to get a better understanding of the Bible, and the word of God and Christ.


That's my introduction after a year-and-a-half of having this account finally, haha. Nice to meet you all, and I hope we can converse in the future!

Welcome to CF, I hope the compare and contrast of different traditions will help you navigate through God's purpose for your life .. and that you have some good conversations along the way.

Hello & welcome @Chris04.
I went to church since I was little, too, but was not Born Again until 1977 (at age 15).
Have you been Born Again?

You 100% deserve to live. Your time here is a gift from God. And whatever mistakes you may have made, when you accept His Lordship, you are "accepted in the Beloved." You don't need to have the same life purpose as someone else. There are a multitude of life purposes (vocational and avocational and relational) that can all glorify God. He has given you your own interests and gifts. One way to approach this would be to say, "God, you've gifted me in X and Y, and I feel inclined to pursue Y. I think Y could bring some good into your world or could be a way to network with those who need to know you or could provide finances for Your kingdom charities/ministries, but I don't know what I'm doing. So if this isn't your will for me, please correct my path along the way. But otherwise I will assume you are in this path. And please show me ways that I can be a salt and a light in my job/ neighborhood/ finances." I've found that many of the most impactful lives I'm aware of went through many twists and turns--whether corrections or new phases. It's not on your shoulders to get everything "right." What a weight that would be!

Ephesians 1:
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He [a]made us accepted in the Beloved.


Here's an interview I was reminded of which you might enjoy:
