The biblical concept of the purpose of man is rooted in the idea that humans were created to have a relationship with God and to glorify Him (Isaiah 43:7, Psalms 100:3). According to the Bible, humans were created in God's image to have dominion over the earth and to be stewards of God's creation (Genesis 1:26-28). The ultimate purpose of man is to know and love God, and to live a life that is pleasing to Him, as stated in Romans 8:28, which says that all things work together for the good of those who love God. Through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, humans can fulfill their purpose and find meaning and direction in life, as expressed in Psalms 23:1, which says that the Lord is the shepherd of those who follow Him.
