Jehovah the Creator God gave His instructions for living and survival, and the truth about Himself and His purposes, etc. to mankind through His written word, in His globally-provided Holy Scriptures/ the Bible. He had 40 different faithful men act as His secretaries, over a period of 1600 years, to write His words down. This is the detailed, written-by-God, spiritual Authority we have. God ALSO makes Himself knowable through His the works of His creation; which are all around us. (Please read the whole of Romans 1:18-32 - this is the situation happening right now.) Even who we are, without the sinfulness - the good qualities that can naturally be, like compassion, a sense of justice, etc. - thinking, reasoning, wondering beings, with a sense of "purpose" and "forever" (Ecclesiastes 3:11) - clue us in to what the person of God is like, because He made mankind "in his image." He is our good, Heavenly Father. Further, once a person has actually studied the whole of Jah's words of truth; has rejected the common anti-scriptural lie-teachings and evil practices of the FALSE religions of the world; has applied God's own words; has obeyed them - has started living them - and has developed a living personal relationship with God - talking to Him in prayer, reading His answers in His words, and in seeing how God acts in their lives - then they MUCH more than merely realize that He "exists" - they actually KNOW Him, and have an alive, working relationship, a friendship with God. Then persons TRUE to God KEEP ON feeding off His written knowledge - they dig deeper into it, to learn and appreciate it more; they KEEP on living it. They STAY true to God; and they uphold and teach His truth to others, just like Jehovah and Jesus Christ want and commanded true worshipers/ true followers of Christ to do. What happens in this spirit-of-Satan dominated world is that the majority - whether they be atheists OR God-disobedient FALSE religionists - have a HATE for the scriptural truth preached by those of the global one true religion of the Bible. So Satan and those of his spirit, who side with him, for fighting against God, try to crush it out. They do this by spewing out hate and lies, against God's words, against the God who wrote them, against His Son who taught them, and against the true religionists who obey and teach them. They also do it by different forms of evil and unjust persecution, such as by government bans (as is happening now in Russia, North Korea, China, Syria, and other places).....However, it is already known that Jehovah the Creator, Jesus His King-Son, and those true to God - who worship Him "with spirit and truth" (John 4:24) - will win this spiritual war. God will soon bring an end to all of the diabolical lie-teaching and evil-practicing FALSE religions of the world (Revelation 18); will remove all stubbornly and heinously evil and God-rebellious persons from off this earth (Psalm 37:10; Revelation 19); will dissolve all the "kingdoms of man" that now exist (Daniel 2:44); will throw Satan and his demons into an abyss, for future annihilation; and will bring down His own, long-promised heavenly Kingdom, onto this earth, to be its only Rulership - and it will be a perfect one. Under God's true Kingdom here, there will be no more sickness, poverty, war, gross injustice, violence, or reason to fear harm from one's fellow man. God "will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore." (Revelation 21:3,4) Death will come to be no more; and loved ones who died before the Divine destruction of Armageddon will be resurrected back to life here, onto this earth, which will be a paradise. (Psalm 37:11) God-appreciating mankind here will get to live and thrive together in peace, as one big, extended happy family - just the way God meant them to - under One Heavenly Father, the Creator. Once people cast aside all of the lies about God, and actually get to know Him - and learn the truth about what has happened to mankind; and how the true God plans to absolutely fix things, etc, - then it is easier to understand Him and everything else; and to love, appreciate, and place trust and solid hope in Him, with one's very life and future. More study of the Bible - honest-hearted, open-minded study, in a humble, good-intentioned search for God's truth, so as to do what he wants, as one discovers that truth - can answer all of your questions. As you prove these things to yourself, see the truth in them yourself, that is how true faith and hope in God is built. "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." - Jesus Christ, Son of the Creator, at John 8:32.
~~~~~~~~
Spiritual TRUTH IS AVAILABLE, in the globally given Holy Scriptures. (John 17:17) In fact, people are meant to and owe to take it up - it is an obligation of man. (Acts 17:26-28; Ecclesiastes 12:13). God's Son Jesus said it was entirely possible - and vital - to honest-heartedly search for, so as to know God's scriptural truth. (John 8:32; 4:24; Matthew 4:4) Belief in and following the whole of the Scriptures themselves (which interpret each other) forms the one true global religion; under the One True Creator God Jehovah, who had faithful men pen down HIs instructions for mankind, under Divine inspiration. In obedience and loyalty to God and His words then, True Christians do not participate in war; are not nationalistic; are not racist; repudiate injustice; repudiate dis-compassion; etc., and follow God's scriptural standards, to the best of their [imperfect] human abilities. We preach them to the world. Soon, there will be a total overhaul of this now largely Satan-run world system. God will soon intervene to bring an end to the world's actually anti-God, scripturally-DIS-obedient FALSE religions, aka, "Babylon the Great", who teach spiritistic/demonistic lies and doctrines of men in place of God's own teachings; and who spiritually adulterize themselves to "the kings of the earth", doing the bidding of those kings instead of obeying God and Christ. (Revelation chapters 17 and 18) After the final, sudden fall of "Babylon the Great"; Jehovah will then unleash Armageddon, which will remove every last vestige of evil, along with stubbornly and heinously evil and rebellious persons from this earth. (Revelation chapter 19; Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39) At the same time, He will dissolve all of the kingdoms of man that now exist. (Daniel 2:44) THE, He will extend His perfect, heaven-based Kingdom, led by His Son, down over all the earth, to encompass it, as it's only Rulership. Then, there WILL be TRUE peace on earth; and the God-respecting family of man here then can thrive......In other words, things ARE going to get better; but the time for people to ACT is NOW. Actually study Jehovah's scriptural words. (John 17:3, 17) LEAVE the world's FALSE religions. (Revelation 18:4,5,8,20-24) Worship Jehovah the Creator on His own scriptural terms, "with spirit and truth." (John 4:24) Live it. Teach it. (Matthew 24:14; 28:19,20) What you see developing is the build-up to a great global "storm"; and its going to be fierce storm; but then everything will be better. The time to learn spiritual truth; develop a strong and viable personal relationship with Jehovah the Creator (and give honor to His King-Son Jesus Christ, who offered his human life to ransom obedient mankind from death); obey God/ keep on obeying Him; and strengthen one's faith and teach others the Way to life is NOW. We don't know the day or hour the great tribulation, culminating in Armageddon, will be, but with all of the prophesies that have been fulfilled and are being fulfilled (such as the one we see here - Romans 1:18-32), it is the warned-of ""season."
