Why were we created in the first place? | |
Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. (God created all things, to include us humans, for His pleasure. I wonder how many people actually know this? How much pleasure have you given Him lately? Definitely something worth thinking about). Proverbs 16:4 The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. (A second witness from the old testament). Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. (What is the conclusion of the whole matter and the whole duty of man? Again, how many people actually know this)? Genesis 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. (We humans are part of everything He has made; He said it was very good. If God thought what He created was very good, why do so many humans think otherwise about fellow humans of a different race? Might be something to think about). Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. (He created us with His own hands. He has given us new lives through Jesus Christ, that we should spend these lives helping others. Helping others do what? Learn of Him and His truths. Our works do not save us, but it is the only thing we can take with us when we die; see Revelation 14:13). Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. (We must have faith and seek Him to please Him. You can't find His truth if you never seek and look for those truths). Isaiah 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: (He will do “all” of His pleasure? What does “My counsel shall stand” mean? Everything He tells us is true and it will happen exactly as He says it will, no ifs, buts, or maybes). Please continue to study your Bibles.
