So, if we were not needed, and not wanted, why would God will us into this world? To glorify Him? Well, then He needed someone to do that. Without someone to glotrify Him God can only glorify Himself. By creating us, it is obvious he didn't want that.

Scripture tells us He made us for His good pleasure, not for ours and that is the point.

God has perfect fellowship and love within the Trinity . He made us to manifest His glory and to enjoy Him .Too many people today are convinced that it is man that is the center of creation ,not God.

One look at the night sky tells us that this is not about us. With each new discovery science confirms that we are less important than originally believed, and the Creation even more glorious than we could ever imagine.

We do know that God created us to be aware of Him and in awe of Him. Without creatures to glofiy Him God could only Glorify Himself. The fact that we exist tells us that that's not what God wanted.

The problem emerges when people confuse our special role in God's Creation as being deserving of special privilege, or for that matter of any provilege.
