One of my heroes in the faith, and the best Christian apologist I know, is Ravi Zacharias. Here, he answers a hard question posed by a young man who was at the end of his rope, with regards to why should he go on living, since life seemed so meaningless. When a person possesses such a question, it takes not only knowledge and skill to answer gracefully, but also a loving heart.
He speaks about four things that equal the meaning of life:
- Sense of Wonder 2. Knowledge of Truth 3. Experience of Love 4. Security
These 4 elements create such a bond in the human soul that we can discover who we are what we are made for.
Man can not be satisfied by facts alone, but also by these other elements. How empty have so many become by only searching for facts. Facts alone have no meaning outside of the person of Jesus Christ. He not only provides the facts of life, but also the true meaning that is both satisfying and fulfilling.
