God’s Purpose in Creating Us - Chapel Chat

God created us with one purpose in mind that we would get to know Him, believe Him, choose His Son as our Savior and worship Him forever.  Most people in this world never discover this purpose!! They will not read the Word of God that He has carefully preserved for them for 3500 years. They will not listen to the prophets and preachers he has sent with the gospel. They rather choose to live in self-will, loving money, pleasure, and their own form of godliness.

    What does God require that we believe?

    He wants us to believe that He exists and will reward those who put their faith in Him. Hebrews 11:6.
    He wants us to understand that He is a Holy and righteous God, and our sins have separated us from Him. Isaiah 59:2, Romans 3:23.
    He wants us to believe that we need a blood sacrifice of a perfect like kind (human) to bring us into relationship with Him. Col. 1:19-22
    He wants us to believe that He has done this for us with His holy, righteous Son, Jesus Christ, who has paid the price of death as a blood sacrifice for our sins. Christ said, “If you do not believe that I am He (The Son) you will die in your sins.”  John 8:24, Galatians 1:4.

    He wants us to believe that He can forgive us if we will only repent and ask. He loves us much more than we can ever know. Mark 2:7.
Fulfill God’s purpose; accept His offer of forgiveness and eternal life.
