293
Scripture and Tradition never cease to teach and celebrate this fundamental
truth: “The world was made for the glory of God.”134 St.
Bonaventure explains that God created all things “not to increase his
glory, but to show it forth and to communicate it”,135 for God has
no other reason for creating than his love and goodness: “Creatures came
into existence when the key of love opened his hand.”136 The First
Vatican Council explains:
