Why did God make man? You live, die and then what?

Answer 1

There is no proof that god exist.

but any way if god exist, this doesn't mean god created man of his own image, becasue how can something made of bady be god. Any thing that is made of matter is effected by time, so if god is made of matter then there is day that god born. but thats immpossibe. God is not made from any thing, and he is neither good or bad, he is neutral.
and no one know why did he make man, and also there is no prove that he exist.

Answer 2

If you ask 'Why did God make man?' then you are assuming a belief in God. If you believe in God, then you must also believe what he says about the purpose of life, so you already know what you need to know about 'then what?' - that what we call death is a stage in our existence and not the end.

If caterpillars were intelligent, do you not think they would ask, "You sleep and your skin becomes hard and then what?" Could even an intelligent caterpillar comprehend what it was like to become a butterfly? For us, life outside this body is so unimaginable that different people have described what glimpses they have had of it in apparently quite different ways. What they all have in common, however, is that we certainly shed our bodies but our souls live on.

Answer 3

Would you believe it if I told you that one of the reasons God created man for.... was to have another intelligent being to converse with? Some think that the angels could have given God intelligent conversations or communications but they are wrong because the angels had no free will, they are more like yes men......... God wanted a being that had a thinking mind of its own. A being that moved completely own its own accord. Angels are not given free will.... they either worship God or the devil period, but man had the ability to chose freely between the two and even worship himself like many now do.
So God created man in his image and gave him the abilities of a God which is to make free choices as he wills.

Answer 4

The Noble Qur'an - Az-Zaariyaat 51:56
And I (Allâh) created not the jinns and humans except they should worship Me (Alone).



"How can ye reject the faith in Allah? Seeing that ye were without life and He gave you life; then will He cause you to die and will again bring you to life; and again to Him will ye return." (Qur'an 2:28)


Were We exhausted by the first creation? Yet they are dubious about the new creation. We created man and We know what his own self whispers to him. We are nearer to him than his jugular vein. (Qur'an, 50:15-16)



This Life is a Test for the Hereafter

The life in this world is a test for the Hereafter. The Qur’an says in Surah Al Mulk:
"He who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed; and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving".
[Al-Qur’an 67:2]

"Every self will taste death. We test you with both good and evil as a trial. And you will be returned to Us." (Qur'an, 21:35)

Answer 5

From a Scriptural view, God did not create humanity to die. Death was introduced as a consequence for rebellion against God. Death is the logical result of life apart from God, who is the one who sustains life. It is like a plant that removes itself from the sun and it's water supply.

We were created to live eternally in relationship with God and one another.

Answer 6

I believe that "Man" is just one stage in a soul's life cycle and the next level to go is when you die and that brings a whole new experience.

And God created the stage of "Man" as a test of worthiness for souls to bask in the glory of God.

Answer 7

god made man like n artist made a painting, like tree gave fruit, like ford made car....
god wanted to find out what best he can give on this earth so he made a machine called man which could think as fast as light and compete with himself to get more out of nature.
man live, if it does good then he may never die, always alive in the heart of other men..

Answer 8

God created Man in His own Image because the one thing God cannot give to Himslf is worship. we were designed for the glory of God everything God does or creates is for His glory. in the beginning Gods was all alone, so out of Himself He made everything because He was The only substance He had to work with.

Answer 9

God made man to take care of His creatures while He takes care of us humans. You live, die, and live in heaven with God (if you are doing good and if you are in the 'Heaven List') or go to hell (if you are NOT doing good and if you are not in the 'Heaven List')

Answer 10

GENESIS UNPLUGGED

THE FALL OF MAN AS SEEN FROM THE GNOSTIC PERSPECTIVE

Eve sat naked on her haunches beneath the forest canopy, alert as always to the sights and sounds of Eden, while Daddy, who was called Adam, snored bearishly at her side. Adam could not seem to get enough of the good things in the Garden, and spent much of his day in a somnolent state, occasionally muttering, in the peculiar argot of those times, “This is as good as it gets.”

Eve was not so sure. She had seen distorted faces reflected in dewdrops, heard urgent things in the whisper of the giant ferns. Unsettling things. She had sensed the presence of Others. And yet, there were no others, were there? Surely, the watchful eyes of the timid tree creatures could not alone account for her feeling that she walked in the shadow of another reality.

Adam’s belly was filled with the ripe fruit of the Garden; Eve’s belly was filled with Adam’s seed. She touched her swollen breasts, and it was then she heard her own name called from afar. She rose and followed the call to the depths of the forest, where there stood a tree whose alluring red fruit she had been warned in a dream not to eat. Dangling by its tail from a low branch was a creature with the body of a salamander and a face eerily familiar to Eve, a face not unlike her own.

“Who? Are? You?” the serpent mouthed.

“I don’t know,” said Eve, not having thought a lot about it.

“Why play along,” the serpent asked, “when you know the show is rigged? Why remain in prison when the cell door is open?”

“Where is this door?” asked Eve, innocently enough.

The serpent rolled its eyes upward, beyond the leafy canopy to the radiance above. Eve’s gaze followed, and lingered, and when she looked again at the tree, the shiny, red fruit was before her.

“Take. Eat,” said the serpent.

“Then I shall surely die,” said Eve.

“Only on television,” said the serpent. “Only to illusion.”

And Eve ate, and was amazed, and ran back to rouse Adam from his torpor, saying, “Try this! It’s amazing!” Adam, never one to resist a new treat, ate also of the apple, and when he had, turned to Eve and said, “Whoa.” He shook the sleep from his head, thumped his chest and roared, presumably to the show’s seldom seen Producer, ”Why didn’t you tell me it was a setup?” With a mighty groan, he stood, took Eve’s hand and said, “Let’s get dressed and get the hell out of here, honey. This is a sham.”

There were suddenly thunderous footfalls in the Garden, and Adam was sore afraid. When he came in dreams, the show’s Producer had always been a petulant screamer, forever reminding Adam of his contract and the dire consequences of asking too many questions. A nasal voice on a bullhorn honked through Eden, causing the forest creatures to tremble. “I AM THE GREAT AND POWERFUL IALDABAOTH, AND YOU TWO INGRATES WILL NEVER WORK IN THIS TOWN AGAIN!”
