What’s The Meaning of Life?

… so long as we are without Christ and separated from him, nothing which he suffered and did for the salvation of the human race is of the least benefit to us. To communicate to us the blessings which he received from the Father, he must become ours and dwell in us. Accordingly, he is called our Head, and the first-born among many brethren, while, on the other hand, we are said to be ingrafted into him and clothed with him… — John Calvin

Melanchthon said it otherwise- to know Christ is to know his benefits.

Life’s meaning is found only in fellowship with Christ. Outside of Christ, life has no meaning, or purpose.
