John 10:10

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

From Background Notes [BN] for Apr 2nd & 3rd written by Pastor Bob Brown:

Spiritual death leads to loss of human purpose and the “abundant life” of which Jesus speaks. A crisis of meaning continues in our world, with the consequential frantic search for political leadership to restore purpose.

The French sociologist, Emile Durkeim, identified this condition with the term anomie (“without law”). According to Durkheim, this produces, in humanity, those psychological states marked by futility, lack of purpose, and emotional emptiness and despair. Striving is considered useless, because there is no accepted definition of what is purposeful. The purposeless life, he noted, often leads to suicide, the ultimate denial of life and the dark affirmation of death. [BN,1]
