Consider the command God gave to man at Genesis 1:28 and the start God gave to man at Genesis 2:8.
Man's purpose was to multiply, populating the earth with perfect humans who would live forever in perfection, while at the same time enlarging the paradise until it covered the entire earth. Since that was God's will, it will come to pass. See Isaiah 55:10-11

Holy Bible "containing Old AND New Testaments":
plays out the TWO options given in Genesis 1: 26
I - Before: in our image - created (imperfect): Law
II - After: after our likeness - made (perfect): Grace
Before/After is for compare-i-son of Law vs Grace;
In which (law/grace) things are an "allegory": Gal 4
http://www.godshew.org/Allegory.htm
Notice God said: let there be "light" (not lights).
Notice God said: let "us" MAKE "man": one only.
Note what's made is only good x 7, very good 7th.
Biblical Literalism & Human Secularism: Dead Ends.
- As in Adam(male & female them) all die: extinction
- By using of ordinances(laws) all perish: extinction.
It's a two part shew about a third part: (Good/Better)->Best.
What's Best for ALL: is Neither Good nor Better for SOME.
It's a 2 pt shew about a 3rd pt: (Great/Greater)->Greatest.
Only the "greatest" of "three things": "never faileth" a test.
"More Excellent": Neither broadmindead nor narrowmindead.
BroadWay: "leads to destruction" by "draw back to perdition".
NarrowWay: "leadeth unto life" BY "go on unto perfection".
NarrowWay also has 2 options: "draw back" <-or-> "go on"
"Us-ward" is neither of two left/right "them"s: them vs them.
God hath given "us" the victory "through Jesus -> Christ".
"Above a servant" is neither of two "servants" in Romans 6.
A servant differs nothing from a child: knows not what to do.
"Higher than the heavens" is neither of two heavens on high.
Mind not high things. Be not highminded, is "unholy": 2Tim3.
POINT: "Grace": Neither of two "law"s in Mt 22 & Rom 8.
http://www.godshew.org/TwainShew4.htm#Laws
God (His Grace) cannot lie (law) nor die (law).
http://www.godshew.org/GraceUntoYou.htm
Pst - Only what began can end: Beginning: Fear, Sorrows.
Grace has neither begin nor end; Neither fear nor sorrows.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus->Christ with you->all. Amen.

God created guy to look after the earth. Thats why he gave us mind so we are able to govern different species of animals and enhance the earth with our very own creations. yet he additionally gave us emotions and freedom, which drives using mind right into a damaging way. particularly of employing mind for the income of every person.. we are employing our mind for the income of ourselves... We experience, we envy, we experience jelouse. That emotion drove guy to consume the forbidden fruit. we mandatory potential and we mandatory extra! the purpose of guy replaced. particularly of helping one yet another and retaining the earth. We now, kill one yet another and injury the earth. Im optimistic that throughout the top.. the element which will bring about the earth's destruction is mankind.

In the book of Job, Satan appears before the "courts" of God.
Court is in session. Satan is bringing accusations against believers. "But take his possessions and he will curse you to your face." "Does Job serve you for nothing?"
The court that is in session is the trial of the angelic revolt.
"The dragon drew up a third of the stars in his tail and flung them to the earth." Revelation.
Mankind settles the question of sin in its various phases and ultimately settles the arguement of the angelic revolt and freewill.
Sin must be allowed to manifest fully in order to be fully and finally judged and disposed of. So the freewill negative choices of man and angels are allowed to exist that sin might be judged and disposed of.

The bible would have you sacrifice yourself to other men who claim to know who god is and what he wants.
Which is a contradiction in all that is logical and therefore an impossibility. So instead of using brute force to manipulate you, they are using fear of another sort.
Bottom line you are to live for them. They need golden toilet seats for their golden asses.
