The purpose of human beings coming to Earth is a profound and deeply personal question that has been explored in various religious, philosophical, and cultural contexts. Here are some perspectives:

1. **Religious Perspectives**:
- **Christianity**: Many Christians believe that humans are created in the image of God and are meant to love and serve Him, as well as to love and serve others. The purpose is often seen as living according to God's will, spreading His love, and preparing for eternal life with Him.
- **Islam**: In Islam, humans are seen as stewards of the Earth, tasked with living righteously, worshiping Allah, and helping others. The purpose includes fulfilling God's commands and striving for a good life in this world and the hereafter.
- **Judaism**: Jewish teachings often emphasize living a life of justice, kindness, and following God's commandments. The purpose includes building a better world and fulfilling one's role in God's plan.
- **Hinduism**: In Hinduism, the purpose of life is often linked to the concepts of dharma (duty/righteousness), karma (action and consequence), and moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth). Each person has a unique role to play in the cosmic order.
- **Buddhism**: Buddhism teaches that the purpose of life is to achieve enlightenment and liberation from suffering. This involves following the Eightfold Path and understanding the nature of reality.

2. **Philosophical Perspectives**:
- **Existentialism**: Existentialist philosophers often argue that life has no inherent purpose, and it is up to each individual to create their own meaning and purpose through their choices and actions.
- **Humanism**: Humanists believe that the purpose of life is to seek happiness, fulfillment, and the betterment of humanity through reason, ethics, and justice.

3. **Cultural Perspectives**:
- Different cultures have their own beliefs about the purpose of life, often tied to their traditions, values, and historical experiences.

Ultimately, the purpose of human life is a deeply personal question, and individuals may find their own answers through reflection, spiritual practice, and exploration of different beliefs and philosophies.
 
Our God of peace, you have taught us that in returning and rest we shall be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be our strength: By the might of your Spirit answer this request according to your will, we pray of you, so we may be still and know that you are God; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.

First off praise God for protecting me this Halloween. My question is will God show me mercy if I ask him? My ### had a dream that we were being chased by a lion and I’m worried it means divine judgement.
