God created man to become His people as God wants to be with people. God is the Almighty and Creator that He could create whatever He wants to create. We should be grateful that He created us and in return should be our praise and thanksgiving to Him.

God created man because He wants to be with man. From one man became so many and when God's time comes, then He will take to Him those who love Him, those who have obeyed His commandments.

I don't think that these questions have human answers, if you know what I mean. If you think of it this way, then how about you ask yourself what the purpose of life is? Why are we born? So that we can torment ourselves with the troubles that life brings and then just end up old and useless? And then, above all, turn out six feet under? These questions are not for us. Answers to these questions are not intelligible to the human mind.

Good question. I think that He created man to love and praise Him. But, He gave man free will so that they can choose to either love Him or not. Because, who wants love that is forced - not God and not me. Love that is forced isn't real love. God loves us and I believe He created us to love Him back.

I think God created us out of love.He wanted a relationship with us and in the beginning it was truly wonderful.But God didnt program us to love Him.He didnt want robots He wanted a real love relationship and so He gave us choices and because of those choices,we became seperated from Him.Sin does that.Seperates us from the one who loves us. God is sinless and because we are sinners there is nothing we can do on our own to get beck to him.Yet God provided a way for us to once again have that loving relationship with Him. He gave His only son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins so that we may have ever lasting life.

First, is there a God and which God? Once you provide evidence to sustain that there is a God and it created man, I think we can discuss purpose. Have a nice day.

Very simple.It's to show forth His praise and Glory.Let me say,this is Possible only through a new life in Christ.He is the second Adam who came to restore the lost nature of God in man back to us.

God has purpose for creating whatever He created and God created man because He loves people. He wants to be with people. On the last day, God will take the saved to Himself in heaven to live with Him forever.
