It's God Himself, of course.

The chief end of humanity is to glorify and enjoy God forever.

yeah...

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.

"I love, therefore I am in I Am. God is my life."

"God in Christ by His Spirit empowers, enables, energizes and enacts all Christian behavior and ministry as the dynamic expression of the life of Jesus Christ. Christianity is Christ. Christian living is the life and character of Jesus Christ lived out through the Christian." -James Fowler

While your there ...

Q. 7. What are the decrees of God?
A. The decrees of God are, his eternal purpose, according to the counsel of his will, whereby, for his own glory, he hath foreordained whatsoever comes to pass.

Heh. Yeah. God determines that the chief end of only SOME people is that they glorify and enjoy God forever. The telos/end of others is to be the blackness of the backdrop against which the glory of God's grace can shine.

But I'm cool with the chief end of us all being to glorify and enjoy God forever.
