Many have wondered if God exists, and if there is a purpose for us. Each of us might have varying opinions, and the Bible gives one reason why God created humans, but what do you think God's purpose for humans is?

God made us because He wants us to be His children for eternity.

You said, "the Bible gives one reason why God created humans." I have forgotten that. Can you remind me what the reason was?

Men are that they might have joy. Also bringing joy and glory to God.

You remember it Bob, it was stated shortly after Eve's creation sir. Jehovah told them:
(Genesis 1:28) . . .God blessed them, and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving on the earth.”

No doubt you weren't thinking simply enough Bob, that is it in a nutshell, Jehovah put humans on earth to multiply and spread paradise till they filled the earth. That is still His purpose as He does not change, but with the sin of Adam, a reroute was in order.
