"God made me to know love and serve Him in this world and the next."

OK, I thought you were onto something different. I can't argue with that. LOL

You could explain how that is relevant to what you said to bass.

For that matter, how can you say a man's chief end is to gloriofy God and enjoy him forever when God made some men specifically not to enjoy Him forever?

It is relevant in that if you see man as the centerpiece of Creation then all things revolve around the creature. Then it becomes a matter of God owing the creature what he desires , the creature seeing himself as worthy of grace and mercy. It affects your Soteriology .

I believe that is why Adam and Eve were created ... that was the purpose of their creation

I hate to butt in but we were not created for God's love. We were created for God's glory. Please consider:

Isa 43:7 "Everyone who is called by My name, And whom I have created for My glory, Whom I have formed, even whom I have made."
