Why do I exist? Eph. 4:5 “Even before the world was made, God had already chosen us to be His through our union with Christ… because of His love, God had already decided that through Jesus Christ, He would make us His children – this was God’s pleasure and purpose.”
Is there a God? Heb. 11:6 “Anyone who comes to God must believe that He exists.” Gen. 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”
Who am I ? Gen. 1:27 “God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created man; male and female he created them.” Psalm 139:13-14 “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
Who is Jesus? Phil. 2:5-11 "Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death - even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
Why is life so unfair? Romans 8:18-24 "I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.”
Am I significant? Ps. 139:15-18 "My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand. When I awake, I am still with you.” Eph. 2:10 "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
Is there life after death? John 11: 25-26 "Jesus said , 'I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies, and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.'” Hebrews 9:27-28 "Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.”
