Answer 3

For y(our) "learning": Romans 15:4. To go and "learn" what meaneth: "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice": Matthew 9:13 repeated from Hosea 6:6 (also Psalms 40:6; Psalms 51:16); Which things are an "allegory": Galatians 4, and a "mystery": noted over 2o times, to solve "in time", lest "all perish" by law instead of "none perish" by "grace is sufficient".

Think of it as the Ultimate Matrix, or as the God Shew;
Whatever happens to you happens to KofG within you.

Think from "the end" to endure unto, that is already written;
the end God declared from the beginning: let there be light:

The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

Answer 4

Inherent in the concept of Creator is creation. They cannot be separated any more than the sun can be separated from its rays. Inherent in humans is the distinct and unique capacity to know and love the creator. This capacity is the generating impulse and the primary purpose underlying the whole of creation. Implied here is that the creator loved us therefore brought into being the universe so that we might come into existence and complete the cycle of love.

Answer 5

Originally we were with Krishna, God, in the spiritual universe, engaged in His service, enjoying with Him, then we decide to give up the service to Him and wanted to be god ourselves therefore, He created this material universe, because in the spiritual universe we cannot play our game of being god, so He created this playground material universe, so we can come here to enjoy this material world, and dominate over the material nature, and God has given us the chance and giving us this body to try to fulfill our desire.
So we fell down from the spiritual universe by misusing our independence, and we forget His service. Now, God is giving different scriptures and He leave principles of religions so we can follow and remember our forgotten service and go back to Him.

PS. Just a minority fell down the majority of living entities are still with God.

Answer 6

Think for a moment about God having some of the feelings we have. Then ask yourself, would you want to spend eternity in a dark, empty universe with no companion. Just as your earthly parents gave you physical life, God gave the very concept of life. You parents probably enjoy having a relationship with you, your heavenly Father desires a relationship with you as well.

Answer 7

He did it because he was tired of trying to build a model of the Cutty Sark in a pitch black void. Every time He dropped a piece, He could never recover it. So, He made the stars for light and the planets to provide a sort of work bench. tfw

Answer 8

Certainly the one true God didn't go to all the pain of putting us down here to be "homicide bombers", in that case, God would have not created any of us, God is wiser than that.

Answer 9

The scriptures indicate that all things were created for the sake of his heavenly son we came to know as Jesus.

Thus the universe is Jesus' sandbox and we are his pets! Some of us perhaps are also his pests.

Answer 10

Everyone has a purpose in life, you will just have to find out your self.

Answer 11

The Christian answer is that He created the universe as a setting for man, and He created man so that He could take a prurient overinterest in his sex life.
