The Way For Students - 007 Chapter 1 - God's Work Of Creation Section 2. God And The Creation 1) The Reason God Created The Universe
Why did God create the heavens, the earth, and all things? This is a fundamental question. Why did this earth and all things come into existence? This was not merely a random generation of life that appeared by chance. Viewed from the perspective of science, there is a cause and effect relationship in all phenomena. This relationship affects the way that all life evolves, including the development of cultures and environments. The laws of cause and effect have come to be universally accepted as a reality of the physical world. (164-83)
The question remains, "Why did God create the heavens and earth?" It is a question of central importance to all philosophies and religions. How did the heavens and earth come into existence? This is a question that has been anguished over throughout history. What are the underlying principles by which humanity and the universe were originally created? (136-136)
What is the purpose for which God created the heavens and the earth, and all things? just for a joke? Or just for the object of some game? No. God created the universe to bear good fruit. (27-227)
Why did God create the heavens and the earth? The reason is that even though God may be an absolute being, He does not feel joy by himself. He does not feel the stimulation of joy. In other words, even if God says, "I am the absolute being, master of love, and master of life," He does not feel the stimulus of love and of life all alone. (38-152)
Then why did God create the universe? Was it just for the purpose of manufacturing life? [No] He created the cosmos in order to fulfill His ideal of true love. (188-196) |
