Doesn’t seem like you have read the Bible if you think that the true purpose of this Earth and why it was created is not in the Bible.

We are here to worship God. And most importantly, by our actions. By being a light in a dark world. By speaking for the Truth.

The "Book of Mormon" is the world's greatest commentary on the Bible. It truly is astonishing. I am 60 years old and have been reading both for over 45 years and I am still gaining profound truths. You should give it a try!

Our single purpose is to worship God? Sorry I didn’t get that part. I understood that He put us here as his as companions in his work and to have dominion over His creation, like the Bible says. My God, is pretty humble and asks of us but about 10 very simple things, the first of which is to ‘believe’ in Him while he’s absent and consult with His spirit for guidance. He even gave us free will so we wouldn’t be obedient robots, but sentient beings with the ability to make decisions as we go about doing His work here on earth. He is a little jealous in that He doesn’t want us to hie off worshipping evil or useless things. But I see that as protectiveness, not arrogance or a need to be worshipped.

Sometimes I think that is part of the problem, that we get so mired down building great temples of worship, producing manmade rites and dogma that we forget The Word of the I AM. Didn’t he tell us that wherever three are gathered together in My Name, so shall I be there with them?
