what are we?

Question

I believe in God. but this is my question. why exactly did he create us? was he bored one day and said "hey! i think i'll create a world with things called humans in it!" and why did he create Satan if he knew what he was gonna do? u know the little mats with roads on them and u drive the cars to get to the doll houses and things like that? well as we're playing with our dolls is he playing with us? are we just like his play toys? he could've done watever he wanted to do yet he created this crazy chaotic world. i don't get why it even exists in the first place. i mean is there really a point? he could've just put us all in heaven to begin with right? so y didn't he? this is just something that continually nags at me and bothers me. if u have any theories please do tell.

Answer 1

Fundamentally, we can say that the creation is the natural consequence of the attribute of creator. God is the creator. That is one of his attributes. That is what he has informed us. That being his attribute, the creator, the natural consequence or the product of this attribute is his creation.

A painter, if we are to draw a similitude on a lower level, who tells you that he is a painter, if you ask him where are his paintings and he replies I don’t have any. What kind of painter is this? The concept of a painter who doesn’t paint, there is some thing not quite gelling together here, of course God is beyond this. But if we are to understand on the simplest level, the two go together. The perfection of a painter lies in his paintings. His quality and his ability to paint, is manifest in his paintings. And God, beyond all that, as creator, this quality of creation is manifest in the creation itself. God didn’t create out of a need. No, the fact that he is the creator, is manifest in the creation.

Answer 2

This life is not a test, not a training ground. It is a constant evolution and a constant flowing Love in which we are always immersed. We feel it, we can project it, receive it, and make it grow if we are open to our true selves. To think God created us for a reason is, I think, maybe not the right way to approach our existence. Rather, if it helps, try to think of it as love pouring out love...there is no logical or philosophical reason for existence. Since ancient times people have tried to define and reason their way to get at the "why" of existence. Take a step back from this involvement and you'll arrive at the answer you seek, an answer which will change your life and the way you live each and every day. It's very funny too, and if you look in yourself, you can't help but smile. :)

Answer 3

I believe that God doesn't play with us. He creatd us with free will, choice. He didn't create this "chaotic" world, we did, He created the world and everything surrounding it. That doesn't answer the original "why." Maybe simply for our sake. Humans were another creation. Why did He create other universes, ponies, or sperate ethnic groups. I believe that there is a reason for everything. We may learn it in time or in passing. We may never find out. But some of me belienves that our purpose is to seek and find meaning in everyhting, especially God.

Answer 4

he did not put us in heaven because he wanted us to make a choice. to be with him or not to even give a damn weather he exist.he created us because he was LONELY and wanted to create something in his image. so he created us. and yes he is with you all the time. sin all began with Adam and Eve with the apple.He is not the one who makes sin happen. Satan does. and when he thought he was better than God he got kicked out of heaven and on to another world. He still cares for us and loves us no matter what we do. Yes there is a point and that is to live your life in a godly way and accept the lord in your heart you will go to heaven and when u r there you should ask him for your self.no 1 can be perfect like God. and that is why he died on the cross for us i really hope this helps u answer your Question.

Answer 5

when u r alone u want do something to time pass. the same done by god him self, for his enjoyment he is doing this. A boy play in a beach with sand he construct a sand house he play with it and he destroy it after bored with that and again construct another type plays and destroy it. it is a process for getting enjoyment to him. the same is going by god creation, administration, and destroy. so exactly we are toys of god like robots. god is more intelligent. he created self organizing toys with in the limits of time birth and death.

Answer 6

God created man (and woman) in his own image and likeness. He is a spirit and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. We are spiritual beings having a human experience; just like Christ except he was wholly man and wholly God! He guides us through the Holy Spirit which dwells in the hearts of believers to lead us to all truth. The purpose of life is to glorify God.
The wonderful thing about God is he loves us so much. When we couldn't keep the laws of Moses he took on flesh and made himself our perpetual sacrifice.
As for why he bothered to do all this the bible says, "His ways are not like our ways and his thoughts are not like our thoughts. Our reasoning is as far from his as east is from the west. His wisdom is unsearchable." Read Psalms.
God is sovereign. He may do as he chooses. I am glad that he is such a wonderful provider and in Jesus he has given us both salvation and an advocate. Like Peter, I invite you to cast all your cares on him because he cares for you. Like Paul, I remind you that we see as through a glass, darkly. If you finish the course (of life) and keep the faith you will receive a crown of glory and you will see God as he is! You will get a pass on all your sins because God will only see the blood of Jesus covering you. Hold on to your faith! Remember that God chooses the foolishness of the world to confound the wise. Do not be wise in your own conceit. You can't figure out God. He is your creator, not the other way around! He knew you in your mother's womb! He loves you. Just believe.
God bless you.

Answer 7

He created us to live life, learn lessons. He didn't create satan, I believe. Satan created itself, out of anger, hatred, and greed. We're not his play toys. He made us to watch us make choices, maybe he was bored, but he made us for a reason. :]

Answer 8

I'm a human being who believes in the essence of the universe as a whole. Someone who is 'linked' to the fabric of existence itself, someone who doesn't see the world as the rest of us do.

Answer 9

may be expained this way---
god created birds to fly. designed them aerodynamically, gave them wings and all that is needed for it to fly. NOW, if the bird thinks that it has been created to SWIM!!
Wat happens. its world would be chaos. It would curse the creator for giving it wings rather than oars. many such complaints start araising. u following??
The point tat i am trying to stress is that, MAY be, We r not doing wat v r supposed to do. May be tats y our world is chaos and v feel tat creation is not perfect!!!!
when legs r given to WALK, then y r v using vehicles?
when Night is suppsed to be dark, Y r v using lights?
there r so many things that v r doing against the creation BECAUSE we dont know OUR PURPOSE!!!

Answer 10

I think He created a beautiful world full of splendor and then gave us free will and everything else you ask about is an offshoot of that.
You really do love drama, dont you?
