Christian "purpose" and "meaning" in life.
#20
RE: Christian "purpose" and "meaning" in life.
The purpose and meaning of a Christian's life is to be joined to, and part of the eternal God.

The closest we can come in this realm is marriage or family.

"That they may be one, even as you Father are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that you did send Me" John 17:21

We are not described as servants or slaves but sons and daughters.
We are described as co-heirs with Christ who is God.

"He that overcomes will sit with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne" Rev 3:21
This is the victory that overcomes the world (system)- our faith.

All that is in the world is- the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life and the lies of the System- these are what we are to overcome.
