What does the Bible say about the purpose of the Son of God?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that the Son of God was manifested to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8).

According to 1 John 3:8, the purpose of the Son of God being manifested was to destroy the works of the devil. This refers to the comprehensive nature of His mission, which includes the removal of sin, the defeat of death, reconciliation between God and man, and the restoration of God's image in humanity. These works highlight the necessity of His coming, not just as a good teacher or moral example, but as the divine Savior who addresses the root problem of humanity: sin.
