" THERE EXISTS GOLD , ALSO AN ABUNDACE OF CORALS ; BUT THE LIPS OF KNOWLEDGE ARE PRECIOUS VESSELS ." - Proverbs 20 : 15.

He has founded the earth upon its established places; It will not be made to totter to time indefinite, or forever. - Psalms 104: 5.

Why are we here? The word's religion often answer that the man is on the earth only temporarily. They see our globe as little more than stopover, or stepping-stone, on the way to life somewhere else. Some clergymen falsely teach that God will someday destroy this planet. As a result of such teachings, many people have concluded that they are better off living life to the full while they can because only death awaits them. What does the Bible really teach about why we are here? God has a wonderful purpose for the earth and for mankind. He "did not create the earth simply for nothing" but formed it even to be inhabited." ( Isa. 45: 18) Learning these things about God's purpose for the earth and for mankind can help us to understand why we are here.
