“What is the purpose of my life?” Where can I find the answer to this most important question? The answer cannot be known without first answering these three foundational questions:

Is there a Personal God who created me for His purpose?
If so, did He communicate His Will to me in the Bible?
Was Jesus just a man or who He claimed to be, God resurrected on the third day?

One thing is certain. The answer cannot be found trhough experience or reasoning. Some say there is God who created humanity. If so, He would be qualified to answer. Some say the answer is in the Bible, others the Islamic Qur’ān or Buddha’s Dhamma or one of the holy texts of Hinduism, or some other so called “holy” writings. Apart from their claims, can any of these be proven to be from a Divine Mind, that is, not by human invention?

Exploring the first of these three fundamental questions is the purpose of this article.
