Best Answer

We were created for the glory of God.

Prior to our coming to earth we lived in a perfect condition, a place where everything was in accordance with God's laws. For us to become more perfect there had to be a way in which we could be tried and tested to see if we would obey God's laws without us being in His presence. There was only way this could be done and that was to send us to a world of His making so that we could learn by our own wisdom. Also all knowledge of our previous life would be blotted from our minds so that we could live by faith alone. Prophets would be sent to earth to teach us the gospel where we could use our agency to accept or reject it. We were thrilled to know that we would be sent to an earth so that we could prove ourselves. The preamble in Job 38 says "God asks Job where he was when the foundations of the earth were laid, when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy-".

God created people in order for them to be tested concerning their use of free-will. We possess a soul which lives on after the body dies and is held responsible for our actions. Anyone who is worthy can merit reward in the afterlife. See also:

Before even asking this question the first question ought to be whether we were created. In answer to that, we have nothing except biblical tradition and faith to say we (or our ancestors) were created. Then, if we were not really created in the sense of God having created the first humans, then this question is unanswerable.

If, because of faith, we believe we really were created by God, then it is proper to ask why. Genesis 1:28 says people were created to "replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."


A quite different biblical tradition in Genesis 2:15 says Adam was created in order to serve the earth, rather than to have dominion over anything: "And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it." Eve was created some time later, to be Adam's helper and companion.
