As to why GOD created us------it was to love us, and to show HIS incomparable mercy and grace. You see, Satan, after he rebelled, told GOD that HE wasn't Love. So, in order to show the Angelic Host HIS Character, HE, through Christ, created mankind just so that HE, through Christ, could save us by sacrificing HIMSELF, as Christ; thereby demonstrating how HE Loves. Amen brother! GOD calls His people "inheritance". Ephesians 1:18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because "I am the good shepherd. I know my sheep as the Father knows me. My sheep know me as I know the Father. So I give my life for my sheep. I also have other sheep that are not from this pen. I must lead them. They, too, will respond to my voice. So they will be one flock with one shepherd. The Father loves me because I give my life in order to take it back again. 18No one takes my life from me. I give my life of my own free will. I have the authority to give my life, and I have the authority to take my life back again. John 10:14-18 ( GOD'S WORD® Translation) He Loves You For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 (American King James Version) He Gladly Went To The Cross We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:20-21 (New Heart English Bible) ~ Be Blessed Beloved Of The KING The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them. Numbers 6:24-27 (King James Bible) Love, Your Brother Joe ~ Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever. Psalms 119:160 (King James Bible) The Bible contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true, and its decisions are immutable. Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe, and practice it to be holy. It contains light to direct you, food to support you, and comfort to cheer you. It is the traveler’s map, the pilgrim’s staff, the pilot’s compass, the soldier’s sword and the Christian’s charter. Here too, Heaven is opened and the gates of Hell disclosed. Christ is its grand subject, our good its design, and the glory of God its end. It should fill the memory, rule the heart and guide the feet. Read it slowly, frequently and prayerfully. It is a mine of wealth, a paradise of glory, and a river of pleasure. It is given you in life, will be opened at the judgment, and be remembered forever. It involves the highest responsibility, rewards the greatest labor, and will condemn all who trifle with its sacred contents.

As if worshiping God is so awful? Worship, is "worth ship", it is acknowledging God is worthy of praise, for the things He has done. Those who realize how much God has done, naturally want to worship Him. We give Nobel prizes, trophies, certificates, plaques, erect statues, write biographies, poems, tributes of all sorts. We give an "A" on a student's report card, all as a matter of acknowledging that people have earned our praise. How much more then, is this true of God? God does not need our worship, He knows He is good, and the opinion of mere people is hardly worth His notice. But He delights in it, the way a parent delights in the fact, that his/or her children appreciate what the parent(s) do for them. Worship, is more that just acknowledging God's deeds and person, it is good and healthy for us. People that do not worship, are just self centered brats who think the world revolves around something or someone, other than God, often, with themselves as the center.

Don't place your faith in the world, or it's people, that is focusing on a distraction, and a disappointment. Jesus, is not a disappointment, focus on Him. If people look to him as an example, maybe, they will come to faith in Him, by the grace of God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
