Why We Are Here? What is The Meaning of Life?

All of this world has been constructed, in order to determine who among men and women will to become God (in a vastly elevated state in the new creation [Matthew 13:43; (Volume) 2 Esdras, 4 Esdras 7:97, 55(125); Book of Enoch 104:2-3, 108:11-15]). Why the obfuscation of this primary goal for humanity? It is part of the test. It all started when Adam, the first human (who originally belonged to the Godhead and was God [Gospel Of Bartholomew 4:52-55]), broke God's single law that he not eat fruit from a certain tree (Genesis 3:6-24). This caused the penalty of confusion and death to result for everyone who came after him (Romans 5:12-14).

Adam's error, though it plunged mankind into a precipitous situation, where many people will actually wind up being condemned, provided an opportunity for God to test mankind. Those who manage to have faith correctly, and successfully endure odds, will be rewarded by coming into a state of being far, far richer than the state in which Adam was originally created (Gospel of Thomas verse 85). Therefore though it is not readily apparent, we are all eligible for being restored from our current state to being God, and do become gods/God (John 10:34) when we have faith. When a person has faith, that person will begin to see for himself/herself that this is true. (See here for more information on the Godhood of Man.)
