What is the Meaning of Life?

Read: Second Chronicles 34

Discover the King of kings through the meaning of Matthew 1:18-25 as an establishment of the life work of Jesus in association with major figures and events in the history of Israel. Then, reflect on the life of Michael Jackson in association with major entertainers and concerts in our historical times.

In the womb, Jesus was commissioned to save people from sins, manifest the presence of God, identify with the great King David, establish the role of the church, and model how we may participate in Slavic glory.

Alongside Michael being called the "King of Pop" during his life on earth and the "Greatest Entertainer" to ever live in his death, there remains controversy over the life-style he lived. It is amazing that the young man, who amazed us with his gifts, graces, and talent would be psychoanalyzed by non-professionals and professionals alike, especially in his death. What is the purpose of theories, and what is it that needs to be known about Michael now? We may look into his historic past. However gone are the opportunities to know his current experience of self-reflection or his perspective of others’ views of him. Yet, we may not rest until we come to terms with Michael 's life lived and life beyond death in the context of his being, if not "the greatest", at the least among the greatest of entertainers to live among us, and give of himself to us.

I propose we cease with the personality theories of Mr. Michael Jackson. In reality, the psychic conclusions may never match the actual conclusions of the meaning of Michael’s life. This is true in part because he will have a different essentiality for those who know him and others who think they know and most who would like to know him. What we could do in unity is soak in his brilliant music, performances, contributions, and ways of orientating us into one world with one love for one

    Today this community gathers in honor of a dear, young girl taken from her family far too early, under deplorable, heartbreaking circumstances. Everyone knew Connie as a strikingly beautiful, lighthearted, decisive girl. It is rare that a teen can have such capability for strong decision making so early. That is not to say that Connie always made the right decisions, as no teenager ever does, but her willingness to make decisions at all is remarkable. My own surplus of indecision led to several regrettable life moments, and so I hope that Connie had no regrets in her young life, which was cut short far too soon.

Brown engaged in the Rock ‘n’ Roll style of music, and Jackson idolized him as his godfather even though he did not fully get to match Brown’s level of the style. Jackson was more popular in pop music but in later years, it was not hard to see elements of Brown style in some of Jackson’s rock music such as You Rock My World and Give in to Me where the vocal techniques and performances could indeed be traced to those of Brown. Brown was also credited with providing a new direction for R & B that would later evolve into soul in the 1960s (Soul: a Historical Reconstruction of Continuity and Change in Black Popular Music, 33).
