Purpose of Creation
...let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days,
and years: And let them be for lights in the firmament
of the heaven to give light upon the earth: Gen. 1:14,15
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Ps. 19:1
The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory. Ps. 97:6
