According to the bible, what is the meaning of life
marusya05 [52]
According to the Bible, our purpose, the reason we are here, is for God's glory.  In other words, our purpose is to praise God, worship him, to proclaim his greatness, and to accomplish his will.  This is what glorifies him.  Therefore, in this we find that God has given us a reason for our existence, a meaning for our existence.  We were created by him, according to his desire, and our lives are to be lived for him so that we might accomplish what he has for us to do.  When we trust the one who has made us, who works all things after the counsel of his will, then we are able to live a life of purpose.  How the particulars of that purpose are expressed is up to the individual.

What is not a potential cause of uncontrollable cell divison
lakkis [162]
Proper functioning of cells is NOT a potential cause of uncontrollable cell divison. Cells originally aren't supposed to divide uncontrollably but rather under strict and controlled conditions. When your cells aren't dividing uncontrollably we can safely say that there is "less wrong" with them than when they do so. So in essence, saying that a proper functioning is not a potential cause of uncontrollable division would be correct in this case.
