Why should mankind believe in God?

Answer 1

The answer from God's word ,"God created this world, created this mankind, and even more founded the culture of ancient Greece and the civilization of mankind. Only God has been consoling this mankind, and only God has been caring for this mankind day and night. The development and the progress of mankind cannot do without God's sovereignty. The history and the future of mankind cannot escape from the arrangement of God's hand. If you are a real Christian, you will surely believe that the rise and fall of any nation and race is under God's arrangement. Only God Godself knows what the destiny of any nation and race will be, and only God Godself is in control of what course this mankind will follow. If mankind wants to have a good destiny and if a nation wants to have a good destiny, then all mankind has to fall down and worship God, and come before God to repent and confess their sins to God. Otherwise, mankind's destiny and destination will be an inescapable disaster.

Look back to the age when Noah built the ark. Mankind was deeply corrupt, and they departed from God's blessings, no longer had God's care, and lost God's promises, living in the darkness without God's light. Then they all became licentious in nature and fell to the extent of being intolerable to the eye. Such mankind could no longer receive God's promises and were unworthy to see God's face and unworthy to hear God's voice, because they abandoned God, discarded everything God bestowed to them, and forgot God's words of instruction to them. Their heart became more and more distant from God. Subsequently, they became so fallen that they lost their sense and lost their humanity. They became more and more evil and then went toward death, falling into God's wrath and into God's punishment. Only Noah worshiped God and shunned evil. So he heard God's voice and heard God's charge to him. According to the charge of God's word, he built an ark and took in every living creature. Then, after everything was ready, God began the work of destroying the world. At that destruction of the world, only the eight members of Noah's family escaped the disaster and survived, because Noah worshiped Jehovah and shunned evil."

Answer 2

From the very moment man stepped out of the cave he has always sought answers to the world around him. Creating gods was one means of answering those questions. Man needs to have something greater than himself to believe in, someone who provides a reason for life, and a means for having an afterlife. With these things the hardships of life seem to have reason and give man the choice to believe or not.

Answer 3

Mankind should believe in God because otherwise, man is living in this material world and thinking this world to be real. When in reality, this world is nothing but an illusion. Every particle of matter is energy. As long as man doesn't understand this and man lives in this material world, man will suffer. Man will become miserable experiencing pain of the body, misery of the mind and agony of the ego. Therefore, for man to be liberated from all misery, for man to achieve his ultimate goal to realize he is the Soul and to become one with God, man has to start with belief. But belief is just a first step. After belief, we must climb the ladder to heaven. What is the ladder? From belief to faith, to trust, hope, enthusiasm and then to love God, that is the first flight of steps. Then beyond loving God we must go in quest, we must ask questions and investigate, we must realize God in the temple of our heart. We must be liberated and we must be united with God. This is our ultimate goal of life.
