God and Man

Have you ever wondered why God created the universe? What is His purpose for creating the world? We'll find it out from the Bible. In Genesis 1:1, God created the heavens and the earth. For what reason? We know that God is love. Love is best for all of us. Love is expressed toward something or someone of His great love.

God created the whole universe, the whole world for love. He expressed His great love by creating the Heavens and the earth. He created you and me. Imagine anything created without love, it would not be the best since it is not expressed out of love. How wonderful is our God then! He is so great that He created us and the rest of the universe! God created the universe to display His omnipotent or infinite power. In Hebrews 11:3 it says "Faith helps us understand that God created the whole world by His command. This means that the things we see were made by something that cannot be seen."

 

 He also created it to claim His glory and very wonderful creativity and craftsmanship. It says in Psalms 19:1: "The heavens tell about the glory of God. The skies announce what His hands have made." He made the universe to reveal His existence and to show His worth. Romans 1:20 "There are things about God that people cannot see- His eternal power and all that makes Him God. But since the beginning of the world, those things have been easy for people to understand. They are made clear in what God has made."

Among all God's creation, what is the most valued or loved creation? Man is God's beloved masterpiece. (Genesis 1:27-31) We are the most amazing part of His glorious creation. We do have a unique relationship with God. Plus, the wonderful part is that we are made in His own image. We are His most beloved creation. We are all valuable and precious to our creator for we bear His stamp and His image. (Genesis 1:26-27) So the question is why did God made man? Why did God created you? He created you to experience Him. To have a very intimate fellowship and relationship with Him. (Genesis 3:8a) He longs and wants to be with you eternally. God wants you home!
