God's Grand Purpose
Life, God alone possessed it. At some point, eons ago, he decided to share it. So, God put into motion a plan with a purpose. Only the heavens existed at this time, God's home. First, he created a spirit individual like himself. This individual, by virtue of being the first, would come to be called the Firstborn of Creation.
Next, with the assistance of his firstborn, he created other spirit individuals and gave his firstborn authority over them, assigning him the title, Archangel. God also gave him the title, the Word, because he was God's foremost representative and would make sure God's declarations were known and enforced. This was God's spirit family, and they were called his spirit sons.
Next in God’s plan, with the assistance of his Firstborn, he created the material universe. He assigned his spirit sons various positions of responsibility in taking care of this material universe, such as Cherubs, Seraphim, and Messengers, and put them under the direction of his firstborn, Michael. They would make sure God's will and purpose was being carried out in the universe in harmony with his plan.
Next, God turned his attention to a particular galaxy that contained a solar system with a planet located at just the right distance from its sun that would become known as earth. God, with the assistance of his Firstborn, prepared the earth for the next step in his plan, the creation of physical life. God created vegetation to cover the earth. This vegetation would sustain the life of his next creations; first, marine life, followed by flying creatures, and finally, mammals. Next, God turned his attention to a particular area of earth, prepared a beautiful garden, and named it Eden. All of this transpired over billions of years.
Now, the earth needed a loving caretaker that would make sure God's will and purpose would be carried out in respects to his material creations. Finally, God, with the assistance of his Firstborn, created man and woman, who would be God's earthly caretakers. Their task would be to have loving dominion over God's earthly creations and with Eden as the model, turn earth into a beautiful paradise. They were endowed with the power to pass on endless life to offspring like themselves and raise a family to assist them in fulfilling God's purpose to see the earth become a paradise. This was to be God's grand plan as explained to us in the Bible. It is orderly and makes perfect sense.
Unfortunately, God's human creations by encouragement from one of God's rebel spirit sons rebelled and chose democracy, rule by the people, over Theocracy, rule by God. Despite this setback, God's original plan for a paradise earth remains in place and will be fulfilled. That is another part of the Biblical story.
