Neither.
The main purpose of this life is to manifest the Kingdom of God in this world. The Kingdom of God is a kingdom in which God is present with His people and there is peace, joy, and mercy.

I am a Christian and first and foremost I can't even save myself from hell.The only thing we can do is hope that whatever we have done on earth is good enough that whomever/God is and where he is it's enough for us all to make it to wherever heaven is.Hell to some people is right here(earth)some don't believe we going anywhere.When life is over it's over.Nobody truly has come back and told us of such heaven or hell.And from what I was taught the only person who did that was Jesus Christ.Is he a real person?Or was he?Did all that the bible say is it true?

Save the people from hell. The world will be no more when Jesus comes again. He says he will rebuild a new heaven and a new Earth. Our purpose is to get people to heaven.

No that is not our main purpose. All we have to do is plant the seeds and let God do the rest. We can not save anyone from hell. The Holy Spirit convicts of sin not us. Plant the seeds and move on.

Neither. Christians live to eat, drink and be merry!!!
Christ saves the world and people from hell, not Christians.
Christians are powerless sheep for the sloughter.

I THINK that is what the main purpose of life is all about.Your supposed to worship God and put God before ALL things,so I would guess thats up there with being one of the main reasons.

Neither. People can only get saved through Christ.
p/s: stop stereotyping all Christians as religious fanatics!

Human beings are created to know God. He instilled in us a thirst that will not be satisfied until we reach out to Him for companionship and love. Paul wrote in Philippians 3:8 (NAS), "More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ."
We were created to have an intimate, loving relationship with the Lord? and to bring Him glory. Paying respect with our gifts and good works is a natural extension of that design. But our primary responsibility is to spend time with Him.

If you read the questions and answers on here, you'd think the main purpose is to convert people and/or make fun of those who have different views.
