The theory's that the G-Man works for an organisation that wants access to all portal technology, and is hellbent on destroying all teleportation equipment which it does not own.
In the Aperture Science Enrichment Center, portal technology is nearly perfected, meaning that it must be destroyed. First, an AI system malfunctions, going insane and killing all scientists with knowledge of portal technology.
After the AI's usefulness has expired, a test subject will destroy both it and the facility, putting both out of action for approximately 50,000 years.
The Black Mesa Incident, which, as we know from Half-Life 2: Episode Two, was orchestrated by the G-Man, not only caused the eventual destruction of the Black Mesa Research Facility (a place with lots of research into teleportation technology going on), but also allowed Gordon Freeman to enter Xen and kill the Nihilanth, the last surviving being of a species able to create portals at will. This, in turn, allowed the G-Man's employers to seize control of the Border-world, a place filled with portals.
Not only did the Black Mesa Incident do this, it also left scars in the barriers between Earth and other dimensions.
This would lead the Combine, a Universal Empire with the ability to control portals, to come to our planet, where their destruction could be brought on by one of the G-Man's clients and the client's followers.
Before this, the Combine may have been seen as a help to the G-Man's cause, enslaving races on the brink of controlling portal technology, but their usefulness has now ended, and it is time for them to be destroyed.
First, they must be cut off from the worlds they have conquered, leaving them unable to use the armies they have created on said worlds against the army of the G-Man's employers.
To cut off the Combine from the Earth, the rebellion must use teleportation technology, which is created by resistance scientists Eli Vance and Isaac Kleiner. Eventually, they must of course die, possessing portal technology, but now, they are still useful to the G-Man and his employers.
After destroying the Combine Superportal, and cutting off the Combine from Earth (for now), Eli Vance is killed, no longer useful. Isaac Kleiner can still do things to help the G-Man's cause, so he is left alive for now.
The only hope of the Combine ever regaining their control over Earth is in the Aperture Science Borealis, a ship containing technology which could potentially create a rift between to worlds. It is vital to the G-Man's cause that the resistance destroys the Borealis, to leave the Combine with no hope of returning to Earth, and to leave nobody on Earth with the power to open portals.
The job is not completed yet, and the Combine must be cut off from all of the worlds they have conquered, before eventually being destroyed on their home-world.
so yeah
