Jesus said "I AM the way, the truth and the life."

 

[Annabel Lee]

"Since this Galaxy began, vast civilizations have risen and fallen, risen and fallen, risen and fallen so often that it's quite tempting to think that life in the Galaxy must be (a) something akin to seasick - space-sick, time sick, history sick or some such thing, and (b) stupid."

whats the answer to life, the universe, and everything

Read the Bible, and you will get your answers.

Bushidomaster,
if you were the one in charge of Life and creating everything that exists, what would you put in your universe? How would you operate it? What would your underlying purposes be?

I think the question you ask depends on the answers you seek and the people whom you ask. Some people find enlightenment on the back of a cereal box, some in the vastness of philosophy, but if you want solid unwavering truth I would suggest the Word of God; of coarse I am a Christian so what kind of answer would you expect.

To be honest with you if there was something better I’d be in it, or doing it. But I have pretty much run the gamut on the things of this world and nothing has ever satisfied me and/or answered my questions for any length of time as the Word of God has.

[Anti Existance]

From a near-death experience first hand.

Above all, I was shown that love is supreme. I saw that truly without love we are nothing. We are here to help each other, to care for each other, to understand, forgive, and serve one another. We are here to have love for every person born on earth. Their earthly form might be black, yellow, brown, handsome, ugly, thin, fat, wealthy, poor, intelligent, or ignorant, but we are not to judge by these appearances. Each spirit has the capacity to be filled with love and eternal energy. At the beginning, each possesses some degree of light and truth that can be more fully developed. We cannot measure these things. Only God knows the heart of man, and only God can judge perfectly. He knows our spirits; we see only temporary strengths and weaknesses. Because of our own limitations, we can seldom look into the heart of man.

If you remember correctly, it's not the answer. It's the question we have to figure out.

On a more serious note...
I can't tell you the answer. Only you can hammer out the meaning of your existence.

 

[dia_liom]

Our purpose (broadly defined) is to serve & worship God. Once you accept Christ, you can learn what spiritual gifts God has given you, and can use those (prayer, service, teaching, etc) to share Him with others.

Ah! I got sidetracked a couple days ago reading the near-death story, and couldn't find my way back. What a great site!

I think when we stop trying to think, to make a response happen, and just sit down, listen, and believe, they will come in time.

I need to know!

1: Believe the Answer
2: Accept the Answer
3: Like the Answer

No matter what the answer is.

God Bless

Love is supreme

 

[byfaith1965]

Anti Existance, Love IS supreme. Heres a scripture to remind us about where Love comes from.

1 John 4:7-13

7 Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God, and he who loves is born of God and knows God. 8 He who does not love does not know God; for God is love. 9 In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No man has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us. 13 By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his own Spirit.

Another good and popular scripture

1 Corinthians 13

1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; 5 it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; 10 but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood. 13 So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
