What is the meaning of life?

WHAT DOES THE WORLD SAY SHORT ANSWER: WE ARE HERE TO GLORIFY GOD, MAKE HIS NAME KNOWN, and live in communion with him.  glorify: According to Lifeway, The verb glorify means “to give weight to” or “to honor.” Thus, to glorify God is to recognize God for who He really is and to respond appropriately. 1 peter 4:10-13 “As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever.”  Make his name known: The last commandment after Jesus’ resurrection from the grave that he gave to his disciples was  Matthew 28:18-20 “18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Jesus said commanded of his followers That we GO. and that we make DISCIPLES of every tribe, tongue, and nation and BAPTIZE THEM as well as TEACH THEM all the things Jesus commands us as believers, so that the glory of God and the revelation of God to man can be made available to everyone in the world! That because of God’s abundant grace we can be granted eternal life. Living in Communion with God Obtaining Communion with God is our final reward for the work that JESUS did on the Cross and imputed to us.  As it is said in Revelation 21 vs 2-5: “And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.  4He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” 5And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” always, we encourage you to share this with a friend you feel needs this truth :) We look forward to seeing ya next time!
