Dear Big Picture,
God created the universe for His enjoyment and His glory (Col 1:16-17). God makes it clear that before He made even one molecule of the universe, He planned to offer salvation to mankind (Eph 1:4). His plan was that all mankind would be offered the opportunity to spend eternity with Him through Jesus Christ (Eph 1:5). God created the earth, so we might live on it, choose Him, and spend eternity as His children.
