Meaning of life!

First of all, if your not Christian or Catholic, then this will mean nothing to you so please just go… Okay this is my take of the meaning of life, first of all you have to understand why Satan is evil, he is evil because he represents, the opposite of god, and god is holy. Actually let me start somewhere else… I’ve heard something about Satan being evil because Humans were to rule over the Angels in heaven, so Satan got pissed cause he doesn’t wanna be second to any person, so now “in contempt” he causes pain to them. Now down to business, Perhaps the meaning of life is for people to prove that they can be exposed to evil, sin, etc and still stay good and faithful even when they don’t get their way and stuff. And perhaps god wants people to prove that before they die, to prove that they are worthy to be in charge of the Angels. Maybe he wants to be sure they will stay good even through hardships, unlike Satan who blew up cause he didn’t get his way. Now before you respond, this is just my theory, I haven’t even read the bible so who am I to know, right? But it makes sense to me….

Satan is evil because he is prideful (ezekiel 28:16), and this is the only reason given in the bible (that I know of) that Lucifer was cast from Heaven. The rest is mythology and bed-time stories.

“First of all, if your not Christian or Catholic, then this will mean nothing to you so please just go… “

Well it meant something to me although I’m not christian, but it’s like I always like to read religous and spiritual articls, but I have discovered that I don’t have to know why I am alive but just to live a good life and that’s enough, that’s what I think….

And I think that what you meant made sense to me…and maybe it’s part of the truth..who knows?

Help me with: ………

Peace to all,

Although I am not a Christian, I am a Muslim and let me explain what the Quran says about Satan (Iblis) and our purpose in this world. A fundamental difference about Satan in Christianity and Islam is that Satan is a Jin (creation made of fire) rather than an Angel (creation made of light). The difference between angels and Jins are that like humans, Jins are gifted with the ability to have a choice, while angels are not given the gift of choice and are in complete obedience of God. Long before Adam was created by God, Iblis or Satan was given a duty by God to bring order to the world, which was inhabited by another creation of God. Iblis was successful in bringing order to the Earth and for this God rewarded him to be in His company, i.e. God gave Iblis the right to have a status amongst the angels even though Iblis was a Jin. With the gift of choice, envy, pride, and jealousy existed. When God created Adam from dust, and commanded all the angels including Iblis to prostrate to Adam, Iblis refused due to envy, pride, and jealously. Iblis believed that he earned his status, fire is better than dust, and only thought about himself and his achievement forgetting his Master,the Creator. God banishes Iblis from his company and revokes Iblis’ status. In response, Iblis blames God for his mistake instead of asking for forgiveness. God creates Eve to accompany Adam in Paradise and orders them to stay away from the ‘Tree of Knowledge’. But Iblis whispers to Adam and Eve to eat from the Tree due to jealously and with their gift of choice they do. God takes Adam and Eve out of the Paradise but unlike Iblis, both Adam and Eve recognize their mistake and ask for forgiveness. God forgives them and places Adam and Eve on Earth and give them a mission to do good and to guide the coming generations against the teachings of Iblis, Satan and making the right choices in harmony with God’s commands. Like Adam, God has sent many prophets and messengers to this world to guide the mankind so we can go back in the presence of God in paradise. This is every human’s purpose, to follow and choose the actions that are in harmony with God’s commandments.
Both Iblis and Adam/Eve where given the right to choose and both made mistakes, although Adam and Eve repented.

This is a quick summary, there are many details but for the sake of understanding this is what Muslims believe, which is very similar to Christian and Jewish belief. Let me know if you want more details.

As Humans, we have the GREATEST Opportunity in the World!!!!

Why do I say that?

Because the ONLY way you can become a Child of GOD…….
you have to be born in flesh, defect from satan’s reign
by confessing JESUS as your LORD and of course, pass from
this life at the time appointed.

No other way! So we are soo Privilege and Blessed to be given
life by our Mothers for we have a chance, the opportunity,
to have Life Eternal!

I like your premise. May I configure it another way?

GOD is testing all of us to see whom is “Cain” and whom is
“Able.”

My favorite Prophet, Jeremiah said these words:
