    Jarax speaks the truth when he says,
    "What is the meaning of death?"

    The entire universe and everything in it was born
    out of a single creation. We too were born of this event.

    what is the meaning of life, what is the meaning of death...

    "look out into the stars
    and you will know of this creation
    feel deep within your soul
    and you will know what is to come"


    quoted verse from A.T.

    Enjoy your life on Earth, and be good. Our life here
    is but a fleeting moments passing.

    Well, it's kind of hard to define what it exactly means to glorify God's name, but I guess this can be done in several ways. I will give brief examples without stating any reasons for support.

    1) Living according to the bible (not entirely, especially not like OT

    Hopefully, you get what I mean...)
    2) Praising God and appreciating Him in a sincere sense
    3) Doing your best (remember the parable of talents?)

    I can come up with more, but for right now, I am just lazy, I guess.

    Isn't laziness a sin? As well as everything else?

    The meaning of life is to get eaten

    Make sure you choose your eater wisely, worms are so cliche

    Zack_Kinney,

    Well... Loving others and living by faith is what REALLY glorify Him...

    If we give what He gave us back to Him, that's not a very big present, but if we bless others giving them what He gave us, then we are really glorifying Him.
