You are unregenerate, unrepentant and uninspired.
Thank you may I have another !
This is starting to look like a smoke screen , so you don't need to answer you own OP .
To fulfill the will of God.
That is the purpose. What is the reason.
Agreed.
Time is a measurement (measurement of and between events) and is no more created than ounces or inches were created.

"Purpose" and "reason" are synonyms.
You'll need to dig a lot deeper to discover the meaning of reason as opposed to purpose. It won't appear on Google.

1 John 3:8 KJV
(8) He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
1 John 3:8 NIV
(8) He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work.
Since we cannot count on Google to have spiritual understanding I tried the New Testament also. Would you like to explain the difference between "reason" and "purpose?"
:rotfl:
You use scripture as a drunk uses a lamp post. For support rather than illumination.
Don't you realise that the reason the translators used both words synonymously is that they don't understand the difference?

Why not lead with your reason in the OP?
Why must most of your posts (and that of others given to this tactic) be a game of Whack-A-Mole ®? :idunno:
It may not be the intent of those that engage in this method, but the practice of asking a question then sitting back and denouncing answers proffered comes across as smugness (Matthew 5:37).
AMR
First and foremostly it is not my reason. It is the reason and as such is available to all those that have an interest in the eternal.
"Whack a mole" or expose a hypocrite who can only cut and paste from denominational creeds.
If you don't like my methods then scroll past.
Time separates the creation from the eternal. Time also separates events and allows prophesy to become. Time is a perfect means of separation. Time also allows a space for repentance. Time is a currency and can be used or abused. It can be invested or wasted. People attempt to save time, but where would you store it.
In further answer to AMR's query about the ways I post. It is to give people time to ponder and I always hope that their ponderings will be rewarded, but there is little if any evidence of that, time will tell...
