Biblical why are we here




















For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

No one comes to the Father except through me. And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.

For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit. For the body does not consist of one member but of many. I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep.

And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness.

God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,.

Not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. He predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,. You are not your own,. Mike Ward M.

Yet others may say what gives them meaning is doing good for others. A common answer is that family and friends is what life is all about, or that to live life to the fullest, you must embrace a transcendent cause. What Do You Say? And What Does the Bible Say? The Bible is a story about God entering into relationship with his creation. It provides compelling answers to four major questions: Why are we here?

What went wrong? What did God do to make things right? And: Where are we going? Why Are We Here?
