I have spent my life searching for a way to fullfill myself or just find out why the heck am I here. In college I played football, did the party thing. In the marine corps. I did lots of cool stuff even went to iraq and saw a glimpse of hell. I believe that most muslim extremests are so full of hate they are not even human. In law enforcement I have seen people destroy their lives for a moment of pleasure. In my opinion, there is nothing on earth that can fill that void for us. The need for God. I have studied many religions and religion is, what it is. An attempt by man to cover his sins through works that accomplish nothing in God's eyes. The only thing I have found that requires no special works or righteousness is to accept Jesus Christ's gift of salvation, it is free. I found we all love sin and that Christ frees us from it. No longer toss and turn in bed thinking about what will happen when I die. I am washed by the blood of Jesus. Whats your story of answer =life?

Finding out who I really am...now I no longer seek, no longer suffer, no longer worry or fear, etc.
I am at peace...for I know I am perfect and a Child of God. There is no karma or sin for me to work out...it is gone.
I have been saved from delusion...liberated. I am free.
There is nothing in this world that will bring true happiness (ie fill the void)...but if you let go of everything (even yourself) - you find your are no thing and that is true freedom.

42. The question, though remains unknown. Only a giant supercomputer known as Earth can contimplate the question. The Vogan fleet destroyed that supercomputer 5 seconds before it could compute the great question that deep thought labeled the answer as 42.

Spiritually speaking, we human beings have not got any function in any respect in our existence. we've not come on our very own. approximately our delivery or death, we ourselves have not been given any determination or determination. Our existence is an test. basically distinction in this test is, we ourselves test our very own applications, potentials, properly worth, values. etc. The experimenting individual and the fabric being experimented are comparable. there is an massive distinction between the lives of plant life, animals and human beings. plant life have existence yet no recommendations. Animals have recommendations yet no longer the unique discrimination power. that's barely the human beings, who've the 6th sense and discrimination power. we are able to advance our point of effortless expertise to large-expertise by utilising particular non secular approaches, approaches, disciplines, and policies.

Why don't you accept yourself for who you are? You don't need to do anything. You don't need to change. Liston to your heart and always ask yourself what would love do when facing a dilemma. Other then that I think you can pretty much flush everything else down the drain. By the way sin is an invention of man and he has done a damned fine job of it. Please, stay away with that blood stuff.

Yes, for there is nothing outside of God worth living for.
We were born by God, for God, and until a person finds God, then they will have that void which you speak about.
God has a plan and purpose for each individual, and until they step into that, through salvation in Jesus, then they will not be complete.The purpose for our lives is far greater than our own personal fulfillment too, although there is fulfillment in Jesus Christ, it is to live to glorify God.

Don't waste your time looking for a reason why we are here. We do not have any true purpose. Religion is just a tool used to make people believe they live meaningful lives. They do not realize that in death, your actions in life were meaningless to you.

AMEN! This gives me great joy to see you have come to the knowledge of the truth of Jesus Christ! He is the way, truth and life! (John 14:6)
The ONLY way!
And yes, until we receive that free gift of His salvation we will never be set free from the bondage of sin and hell. It is like carrying around the BIGGEST weight--- but only Christ can lift that weight- only Christ can take off those chains of hell....He is our Savior! And yes the answer to life is HIM!

Accepting Jesus is no answer. There is no payoff to doing it. You don't get richer, happier, find more dates, do better in school, get a better job, stay thin, sleep better, keep from getting colds or anything else positive. The only truly fulfilling goal of life is to get your genes into the next generation, or more accurately, apparent success in that endeavor.
