What is the plan of God for man?

That everyone should inherit eternal life.

That everyone should see His glory and splendour and

That everyone should be in His presence forever worshipping Him.

Wow, how majestic would that be!

OH! This is not your very first question - according to the stars you have. What was your very first question? Why did you delete it or was it reported? LOL. I'm shocked to see you actually asked a question.

God's plan. That we have the space and time to discover that He is REAL and in finding Him that we accept that we are His creation. God's plan is for ALL His children find their way back to Him. In sending Jesus He has made it as easy as it can get. He is "the Way, the Truth and the Life" Some of us though no matter how loving a Parent is will always blame the Parent for perceived injustices in their life. Peace and God bless

First of all, I am flabbergast that you asked a question.

And secondly, the plan of God for men, as was told me during my awful trial of DOOM, was simply to follow the 10 Commandments, which my old Dad used to always exhort: "They're not the 10 SUGGESTIONS, you know!" with a smile and a shake of his head. Further to, I have gleaned from two diverse sources, (one was the head archivist for the Dalai Lama) that we are put here to love those around us (who God has given us),..also this was said at a prayer meeting around about the same time...(all during this awful trial of DOOM).

Anything more refined than that, I cannot say. I think that human ambition is there for a reason. My husband grew up poor and so made his burning ambition to make something for his children that wasn't horrible like his...which was as bad a trial of DOOM as mine, which occured earlier in his life.

The amount of interesting people I have met through him would boggle your mind. We are all interconnected. I hope that when I must say or do something at the right time and place for the person who needs it most, then I have done the Will of God, and therefore, fulfilled His Plan.

I've heard other things from NDEs such as: God's Dream for us was 1) to raise children, 2) to grow gardens (apparently, we have the ability to make the weather do what we want if we live peacable lives) and 3) to heal the afflicted.

I find that whimsical, but yet, not beyond God's ideas.

Then again, from another NDE, a person said this: Why do you think God put us on a planet that is 60% water? So that we can give, to the least of our brethren, a glass of it." (Or words to that effect.) And soon after, my daughter, unprompted (the daughter that is so worldly) said to me, "If I could do something for someone in the world, I would want to help the people in the desert who have no water."

And that, in a nutshell, is what I think God's plan for man is.

If I think of anything else to add, I'll edit this.

*goes to look up links to NDEs*

God made us to know, love and serve Him in this life so we can be happy and live with Him in heaven for all eternity. We learn to know God through nature, the Bible and the Church, and my favorite place to learn to know God is through the people in our lives. We learn to love God by loving and being compassionate towards others and treating them the way we would want to be treated. We serve God by trying our best to do what is right and live the way God wants us to live. A wise priest once told me that we're not responsible for all the problems in our lives and that God only asks us to do our best with whatever circumstances we're in. Even when we choose to do wrong God knows how to bring good from it. Looking back I see that when I made mistakes or lived through bad times I ended up either learning from it or becoming a better person for having been through it. When we die and go to heaven we can't even imagine what God has planned for us. Our minds are too small to ever figure out what God has in store for us as He is our kind and loving Father. The only thing I know for sure is that God loves each and every one of us and wants us to choose to love Him in return. I hope I can love Him and do all He wants me to do

To love and be loved.

Within God's self and within ourselves exists an unbounded, ineffable, overflowing wealth of love that cannot be exhausted or overspent.

If you're looking for a catechetical response...

"The eternal Father, in accordance with the utterly gratuitous and mysterious design of his wisdom and goodness, created the whole universe and chose to raise up men to share in his own divine life,"150 to which he calls all men in his Son. "The Father . . . determined to call together in a holy Church those who should believe in Christ."151 This "family of God" is gradually formed and takes shape during the stages of human history, in keeping with the Father's plan. In fact, "already present in figure at the beginning of the world, this Church was prepared in marvelous fashion in the history of the people of Israel and the old Advance. Established in this last age of the world and made manifest in the outpouring of the Spirit, it will be brought to glorious completion at the end of time."152

The books of Ephesians (and Colossians) say something about this - as was revealed to Paul . My understanding currently is that God wants to restore us to a renewed relationship with Him (as sons and daughters, ultimately fully pure and good like Him), pour out grace upon us eternally in extravagant abundance so that everyone will be full of praise for that goodness of God and happy with God's rule, and bring everything into a happy glad union under Christ. And God's wisdom will be evident in different ways in each believer's life.

I think God's plan for mankind is something along the lines of purification. Kind of like, overcoming our fleshly selves and allowing a higher good to encompass us.

I think this process allows for us to make mistakes and also to grow.

His plan is for man to know and love Him, in perfect union for time eternal.

God bless.

Hmmm.... I saw so many answers that I was going to skip this question, but then I felt compelled to answer.

1. God gave us this earth as a home to conquer its knowledge and seek its truth.

2. After we took of the tree of knowledge, the forces of good and evil started to separate us.

3. God gave the last several generations His Son, as a Savior, to die for our sins and provide us a way to Heaven.

4. God would like for us to seek salvation. In order to find savalation, we must live a reverent and obedient life by imitating his Son.

5. God seeks for us to continue to find and seek knowledge. He has provided mysteries for us to solve and has many for us yet to solve.

6. God wants us to follow his Commandments. In particular, He wants us to love one another as He loves us. This commandment means that we must help those that need our help, whether they are close to us or a stranger.

7. In the end, death will either reach us, or Christ will return, and we will find our eternal home.

We are God's biggest chearleaders and he is a loving and merciful Father.

God bless.

when God created the world he wants someone who can take care and be the leader of all his creations and so he created humans to make the world a better place. but now most of the people around the world forget his blessings that he was given, and thats why when the time comes he will judge who will go to his kingdom.

It doesn't matter what His plan is. It's not for us to know, and it's presumptious of you to assume you could even understand what it would be. My advice: stop thinking about it. What's gonna happen is gonna happen, so there's no use dwelling on it. Maybe we don't even have a plan. Maybe what happens to us doesn't really matter and what happens to us only exists to affect someone in a galaxy so far away it's inconceivable. It really doesn't matter. If you just live your life the way that you think you should, it doesn't matter what God's plan for man is.
