Life Purpose & Adam & Eve Q's

God created us for a purpose.

God created us perfect but humanity sinned in Eden and caused corruption, sin, suffering etc and ultimately death. That was all HUMANS fault - and the world continues in sin and rebellion to God. And will do so until the world ends.

But because everything was broken God went about His plan to fix it. (*He knew man would do this before the world was created). He implemented the restoration plan (to reclaim what was lost). To bring about mans redemption. (*He already wrote their names in the Lambs Book of Life, before the world was created too). And Jesus is the key to it all.

The wages of sin is death but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus. Rom 6:23 tells us.

God went to great lengths and expense to redeem us from the curse, and bring us back into the right relationship with Him.

Plus even better.

God was able to display the rest of His attributes because of this plan, and man and angels would know more about Him that they would not have otherwise. And believers would also live out those (righteous) characteristics in the new nature. *If it wasnt for the Fall we wouldnt know God was loving, gracious, merciful, patient, forgiving, etc, even his perfect justice, or anger and wrath (against sin and things that are wrong), as a few examples. And we then also couldnt exhibit those good moral character traits towards others as we live in this sinful world.

Originally being made in His Image we were perfect, and were reflecting his righteousness/holy character. But because spiritual death entered (the creation) when Adam sinned, it caused separation. We were severed from God and only lived in sin. But [once born again] we are made righteous, and now live righteously. And, one day we will shed this temporary sin stained body and be given a glorified eternal (sin free) one [in Heaven].

Today, God wants us to obey the Gospel so we can be redeemed from the curse and be restored. At conversion we begin with an eternal relationship with him and can live out our life purpose. When we obey the Gospel we turn from sin and to righteousness. From self to God. And we follow Christ.

This explains the gospel in a short video. Check it out for true clarity.

“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Here is a study on God's Attributes; his character and nature, which I highly recommend.

Purpose of Mans Existence.
Man’s chief end and highest purpose in life is "to glorify God and enjoy Him forever", (Romans 11:36; 1 Corinthians 6:20; 1 Corinthians 10:31; Psalm 86:9). God says, “Bring all who claim me as their God, for I have made them for my glory. It was I who created them”(Isaiah 43:7).

“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created." Revelation 4:11

Man was created so that all of God’s attributes might be displayed, known, and praised.
