SPELLING EDITED R-3. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF LIFE? WHY ARE WE HERE? Why do human beings exist? Did human beings evolve as science teaches in the theory of evolution of man? Or were we created like the Bible teaches? And if we were created then WHY were we created? What was the PURPOSE of why God created the human race? Having the CORRECT answer to these questions will answer all the questions you have about God and His Son Jesus? And having the WRONG answer to these questions will leave you questioning many things about God and WHO his Son, Jesus truly is. You may think that you know all there is to know about God and who Jesus is. But if you do NOT know WHY God created you then chances are, you are WRONG about who Jesus TRULY is. Now, I am going to do this study in God’s word a little different than all the other Bible studies that I have written here at AMatterOfTruth.com. In other words, rather than quoting all the verses of Scripture and writing them out for you so that you do not have to pause and look them all up, I am going to leave a lot of LINKS. And if you have questions or concerns about what I am teaching then I implore you to click on those LINKS and read the in-depth studies. And in those studies, I have all the Scriptures written out for you so you do not have to keep pausing to look them up in your Bible. When you click on a Scripture reference that has several verses only one verse of Scripture will appear. To read all the verses click on the word CONTEXT. Please be sure to read all the verses and also the context. I did it this way so you can also compare different translations of the Bible by clicking on the word COMPARE. All the links with the in-depth studies will have the title of that Bible study. Sorry for all of the advertisements on the Bible website. It used to not have any advertisements. I would change to another Bible website but it seems that they all have advertisements. Almost all Christians know and understand that the Bible is filled with PROPHECIES. The Old Testament has over 300 prophecies foretelling the coming of God’s Messiah to deliver his people. But there are also many prophecies of the coming of God’s final Day of JUDGMENT. (See John 12:46-50) For many of the verses of Scripture that prophecy of the two comings of Jesus as the Messiah or as the Savior please read the study “PROPHECIES OF JESUS BEING THE MESSIAH!” So then, did God create the human race simply so he could JUDGE us? Did God create the first man Adam so that Adam and Eve just so that they would DISOBEY God’s one commandment to not eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil? Or was there another reason as to WHY God created the human race a little LOWER than His previous creation of the ANGELS? (See Psalm 8:4-6 and also see Hebrews 2:5-10) Almost all Christians know that Jesus is the LAMB of God. (See John 1:29) And all Christians know that Jesus was SLAIN in the MIND and PLAN of God BEFORE God ever created the human race or before the FOUNDATION of the world. (See Revelation 13:8) So then, did God create mankind simply so that we would disobey him and then he could save us? If so, then why does God not save every human being? Why does God save ONLY those of us who BELIEVE in his Son as our Lord and Savoir who endure unto the end to be saved? Please read the studies under the heading >>>WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?<<< What IF the FOUNDATION of the world was NOT in eternity past when God FIRST created the heavens and the earth? What IF God created the heavens and the earth perfect and then the earth BECAME void, CHAOS, and empty AFTER a PREVIOUS creation of God lived on the earth? (See the LITERAL translation of Genesis 1:1,2) What IF the FOUNDATION of the earth is referring to God RE-CREATING the earth so that he could create a NEW species of beings made a little LOWER than the angels? And what IF God created the human race inferior to the angels for a very specific REASON? What IF God had a PLAN that he kept SECRET from the FOUNDATION of the world? (See Matthew 13:35 and also see 1 Peter 1:15-23) What IF Lucifer rebelled against God BEFORE the FOUNDATION of the world long before God ever created the human race? What IF Lucifer made WAR against God to become God’s ENEMY and that is HOW the earth BECAME void, CHAOS, and EMPTY? Please read the study “THE WAR IN HEAVEN---REVELATION 12!” And what IF Lucifer falsely accused God that God created him FLAWED and imperfect as Lucifer's DEFENSE so that God would not destroy him? For all the verses of Scripture that prove the foundation of the world was NOT in eternity past and that John 1:1 does NOT refer to THE beginning in eternity past please read the in-depth study “WHAT DOES THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD TRULY MEAN?” What IF God created the first Adam a little LOWER than the angels to PROVE that even an inferior species of beings could live without sinning against him? What IF Jesus was made a little lower than the angels? (See Psalm 8:4-6 and also see Hebrews 2:5-10) What IF God knew that Lucifer was very wise and that he would TEMPT Adam and Eve to disobey God’s one commandment to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil? What IF God had a PLAN in His mind to SAVE mankind to clear His name that had been defamed by the FALSE accusation of Lucifer that God created him with a sinful NATURE, and thus, Lucifer claimed that was God’s FAULT that he made war with God to try and exalt the throne that God gave to him ABOVE the clouds so that he could be as God? And what IF God kept his so great a PLAN of salvation a SECRET from the time of the FOUNDATION of the world? What IF Satan would have KNOWN God's secret plan of salvation? (See 1 Corinthians 2:6,8 and Matthew 13:35 and also see 1 Peter 1:15-23) What IF, in God’s PLAN of salvation, He is going to REWARD those who follow and obey His plan of salvation for all the SUFFERING that they endure? What IF God promised His Messiah a reward if he followed and obeyed all that God told him to do? What IF God set a JOY before the Son of man, Jesus to endure the cross? (See Hebrews 12:2) What IF that joy was to be made Lord of the earth for 1000 years to sit on God’s throne to rule for God? And what IF all who believe in Jesus as their Lord and Savior in this present world will be rewarded with ruling and reigning WITH Jesus in the world to come for 1000 years? What IF one of God’s main goals was to JUDGE Lucifer for his crime of making war with God to try to exalt the throne that God gave to him above the clouds? What IF God created the earth to be inhabited? What IF God’s INTENTION has always been to have RIGHTEOUSNESS dwell on the earth and NOT have his creation rebel against him? What IF God never intended for Lucifer to make war with him? What IF that war never happened? Would there even be a race of human beings had it not been for Lucifer rebelling against God? What IF God was content to be the Almighty God over his PREVIOUS creation of the angelic beings? What IF God decided to create the human race AFTER one-third of his creation of the angels rebelled against him to rule over themselves to do things their own way? What IF God’s goal NOW is to REPLACE that one-third of his creation with a new species of beings called the humans that God would eventually highly exalt to being ABOVE the angels to JUDGE the FALLEN angels for the crime of making WAR with God? And what IF God chose ONE man from among the human race to REPLACE Lucifer to be God’s King of kings and Lord of lords over the earth for 1000 years? For all the Scriptures that will answer these what-if questions please read the studies “UNDERSTANDING WHY”, “WHAT DOES FOUNDATION OF THE WOULD TRULY MEAN?”, “THE WAR IN HEAVEN---REVELATION 12!”, and “WHO IS LUCIFER---IS LUCIFER SATAN?” What IF God never intended for any of the human race to be cast into the eternal fire that was originally prepared ONLY for Satan, the Devil, and for the fallen angels? (See Matthew 25:41) When IF God never intended for Adam to sin? (See Genesis 6:6, and Ezekiel 33:11) What IF hell ENLARGED herself because men were DECEIVED by Satan to follow and obey the ways of Satan? (See Isaiah 5:14) What IF God gave the human race a CHOICE to choose his way of RIGHTEOUSNESS or to choose Satan’s way of what seemed good and pleasing in their OWN eyes that seemed right to them at the time? (See Deuteronomy 30:19) And what IF God is PLEADING with all of mankind to repent and TURN from their OWN way to follow and obey God’s WAY of righteousness? (See Ezekiel 18:20-32 and also see Ezekiel 33:8-20) What IF God came up with his plan of salvation AFTER Lucifer rebelled against him but BEFORE God re-created the earth? What IF God saw that PRIDE was the cause of Lucifer's rebellion? What if God's plan of salvation eliminates pride so the HE can save WHOSOEVER BELIEVES in His so great of a plan of salvation? And what IF all of these what IF questions are taught in the Bible ITSELF and it was there all along but we did not see and understand WHY God created us in the first place until these last days? What IF that AFTER the 1000 year reign of Jesus has ended that this present heaven and earth will pass away with a great noise and melts with fervent heat? (See 2 Peter 3:7-15) What IF God CONSUMES every disobedient person who disobeys his TRUE Gospel in the lake of fire along with the fallen angels? What IF God creates a new heaven and a new earth for ONLY those of us who believe, follow and obey God’s TRUE Gospel of Jesus Christ unto the end to be saved? (See 2 Thessalonians 1:8) What IF God's now eternal Son, Jesus, steps down from ruling over the earth AFTER the 1000 years has ended and he commits the ruling of God’s kingdom back into his God and Father’s hands? What IF Almighty God Himself is going to come down out of heaven AFTER He creates the new heaven and the new earth so that HE can dwell with His NEW CREATION of RIGHTEOUS human beings that He exalted to be ABOVE His previous creation the angels? (See Revelation 21:1-8) What IF the Bible itself teaches us that it has not even entered our mind what God has prepared for those of us who love Him in the ages to come AFTER the 1000 years in the next world to come where there will be no more suffering, no more pain, no more hunger, no more crime, and no more war UNTIL God allows Satan to be let loose from the bottomless pit to DECEIVE the nations one last time to make WAR against God’s people? (See Isaiah 2:4 and Revelation 7:13-17) What IF the Bible ITSELF, teaches all of this? Would that answer your question of WHY God ALLOWS suffering and war in this present world? What I mean by this is that KNOWING that God created mankind to CLEAR God’s name of being BLAMED that he is the one responsible for Lucifer making war against him, does that not make more sense than BLAMING God for everything that happens including ALL evil? Even Christians say WHY did God take my baby? Or why did this happen to me? What did I do to deserve such a tragedy in my life? For all the verses of Scripture that God is NOT the one who is to be blamed please read the study “UNDERSTANDING WHY?” Why not place the BLAME where it belongs? Why is it so hard for SOME Christians to see that it is Satan who is our ENEMY and NOT Almighty God? Once you see that the beginning in John 1:1 is NOT THE beginning of the original creation of the entire universe in eternity past then all of the pieces of the puzzle of God’s word will fall right into perfect place. Every verse of Scripture will be in HARMONY without ANY contradictions. You will KNOW that God is for you and NEVER against you. Please read the study “WHAT DOES JOHN 1:1 TRULY MEAN?” You will KNOW WHO the TRUE Jesus really is. You will KNOW that Jesus is the FULFILMENT of God’s PROPHESIED word of TRUTH. You will know that any teaching concerning WHO Jesus is that is NOT PROPHESIED is FALSE. You will KNOW that Jesus is the ONLY WAY to eternal life. You will KNOW that the firstborn of every creature means that the Son of man, Jesus, is the firstborn human being from the dead ones to be given the divine nature of immortality. Please read the study “WHAT DOES FIRSTBORN OF EVERY CREATURE TRULY MEAN?” You will KNOW that Jesus did NOT pre-exist as God the Son in eternity past, either with no beginning or with a beginning as God’s firstborn of every creature. You will know that Jesus BECAME God’s human Son at the Virgin birth. You will KNOW that God did not DWELL IN the Son of MAN, Jesus, UNTIL his water baptism which is WHEN God ANOINTED him with his Holy Spirit and with power. You will KNOW that God highly exalted the Son of MAN, Jesus, after the cross to BECOME God’s, ETERNAL Son who at first, was God's human Son. You will know that God GAVE the Son of man all power and authority to JUDGE the fallen angels and all of mankind in the world to come. For all the verses of Scripture that prove that Jesus became God's eternal Son after the cross please read the study “WHEN DID JESUS BECOME GOD'S ETERNAL SON?” You will know that ONLY the good and faithful Christians will be judge WORTHY to receive eternal life AT his coming to rule and reign WITH Jesus for 1000 years over the mortals who SURVIVE the WRATH of Almighty God that will be poured out by Jesus right after the rapture of the church. You will know that in God’s plan of salvation that there will be TWO harvests of the RIGHTEOUS. The first harvest will be ONLY the faithful Christians BEFORE the 1000 year reign of Jesus. And then the second harvest will be AFTER the 1000 years have ENDED. You will know the TRUE Gospel of Jesus Christ never to be deceived again by false teaching. You will KNOW that you belong to the ONE TRUE church, the church of the FIRSTBORN, our brother and fellow servant, Jesus Christ, the SON OF the living God. For all the verses of Scripture the prove that Jesus became the firstborn among many brethren please read all the studies under the heading >>>IS JESUS THE CREATOR?<<< You will know all of this IF you read all the studies that I have given you LINKS to click on to read those studies. You can continue to BLAME God for everything just like Satan. OR you can learn the TRUE Gospel of Jesus Christ and KNOW that you are saved right now having been given the GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS by the grace of God through FAITH in the sacrifice that God’s Son made for the atonement for your sins. And you will KNOW that you WILL receive eternal life in the world to come because you will KNOW that you will never turn away from the true Gospel of your salvation. Please read the study “WHAT IS THE TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST?” Thanks for reading and may God give to you the perfect peace that He has given to me to KNOW that God IS and that He is the REWARDER of those who DILIGENTLY seek Him THROUGH His Son, Jesus the ONLY name given among the human race whereby we MUST be saved. And if we NEGLECT God’s so great a salvation then we have no hope of escaping the WRATH of Almighty God on the Day of Judgment. (See Hebrews 2:3) For they who do not believe that Jesus is the TRUE SON OF Almighty God have no eternal life abiding in them. So do you TRULY believe that Jesus is the SON OF Almighty God? Or do you wrongly believe that Jesus IS Almighty God HIMSELF being fully Almighty God and fully a man at the same time having TWO natures, one divine, and one human during the days of his FLESH? For you see, there can be only ONE Jesus that is the TRUE Jesus! So are you believing in ANOTHER Jesus? Or do you believe in the TRUE Jesus that the Bible ITSELF teaches us? Please read all the studies under the headings >>>A LIST OF STUDIES ON THE TRINITY!<<< and >>> IS THE ONENESS DOCTRINE BIBLICAL?<<< Your brother in our Lord Jesus Christ, Brother Mark.
