Yes, I have wondered why God has created man, who so often disappoints Him. Imagine the sorrow He must feel when His children reject Him. I couldn’t bear it.
The answer is always the same, God holds those whom he is teaching to create accountable for what they create and the creations actions as one in the creations spiritual body.
Jesus was the only one who could redeem the creation..he made it, he is not a hired servant..he tends the sheep no matter what..
A worthy King..Shepherd of all who seek..
Because the lessons of our state of being require alignment to hear his way..
It was God’s will that we should hear him, next time hopefully those with the Earth experience, and our fallen experience we will know to hear him..
Interesting perspective. I suppose we will have a few hundred thousand years in Heaven to ponder it and ask the right people involved.
Everything worthwhile requires faith but I believe God gives us the ability to ask questions because there are answers for those questions. Don’t give up your quest for wisdom and keep in mind the truth that God doesn’t make mistakes. Good luck.

There you go!
What if we were one of Jesus’.
I hope so!
No, no Jesus was one of us but we are not one of him. That is why despise temptation he could remain sinless - thus his sinless death could be a propitiation for all men. God loved us that much.
“He has done it”
The last verse of 22 is my favorite.
