God hovered above the formless waters and made a whole world full of people... but for what?
There's no reason to do so.
Well I think we should back track further
Why did He create angels?
Why free will?
I believe it was out of love
For that is who He is
I'm presuming he created angels as servitors of his will
Like background processes on a computer
Perhaps he wanted to share His glory
He wanted others to partake with Him
For that is Love
Is it not?
>He wanted others to partake with Him
so he was lonely
No
It depends on what kind of love you are talking about
You're seeing this through rose colored glasses
Pure love
REal love
Nothing exists outside of that
There is only real love
"I have all of this, but I would also like to give it to someone else"
This is just theoretical mind you
But it aligns with His character, by my limited understanding
Lonely would be selfish
Aka not love
It's just love
Don't over complicate it
If you know real love, then you can understand.
Selflessness is real love
It's really an English phenomenon to have just one word for love and even the word love in the Bible is generally a translation of the word Agape
which is but one of the words for love in Greek
That is the universal, egoless love of charity
There was actually different translations and uses in the Bible
Not all were considered "agape" from what I've heard
It was written in quite a few different languages so that doesn't surprise me
Yeah, my pastor looked into it far more than I
in fact Holy Spirit told him to many times
And so he was brought revalation
