If there is a purpose in life at all, there must be a purpose in suffering and in dying. But no man can tell another what this purpose is.

The purpose of God is the sovereign cause of all that good that is in man, and of all that external, internal and eternal good that comes to man.

All a believer's present happiness, and all his future happiness springs from the eternal purpose of God.
