......."Therefore God, in keeping with the desires of their hearts, gave them up to uncleanness, that their bodies might be dishonored among them, 25 even those who exchanged the truth of God for the lie and venerated and rendered sacred service to the creation rather than the One who created, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 That is why God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; 27 and likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full recompense, which was due for their error.
28 And just as they did not approve of holding God in accurate knowledge, God gave them up to a disapproved mental state, to do the things not fitting, 29 filled as they were with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, badness, being full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malicious disposition, being whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, insolent, haughty, self-assuming, inventors of injurious things, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, false to agreements, having no natural affection, merciless. 32 Although these know full well the righteous decree of God, that those practicing such things are deserving of death, they not only keep on doing them but also consent with those practicing them." (Romans 1:24-32)

False - tough as it is, there is REALITY and REASONING that those still questioning whether there is a God - or those adamant that there “is NOT” a God are ignoring. The testimony of there being A CARING, POWERFUL, and powerfully intricate, WISE and precise, etc., DESIGNER-CREATOR, Maintainer/Keeper of Order - One who "calls" to mankinds' consciences to worship HIm, search for Him, want to thank/serve Him, respect right from wrong, etc.- is EVERYWHERE and WITHIN EACH PERSON. ............. "EVERY HOUSE IS CONSTRUCTED BY SOMEONE, BUT HE WHO CONSTRUCTED ALL THINGS IS GOD." (Hebrews 3:4)......."The heavens are declaring the glory of God;
And of the work of his hands the expanse is telling." (Psalm 19:1)......"When I see your heavens, the works of your fingers,The moon and the stars that you have prepared, What is mortal man that you keep him in mind, And the son of earthling man that you take care of him?" (Psalms 8:3,4)............"For you yourself produced my kidneys;
You kept me screened off in the belly of my mother.
14 *I shall laud you because in a fear-inspiring way I am wonderfully made.
Your works are wonderful,
As my soul is very well aware.*
15 My bones were not hidden from you
When I was made in secret,
When I was woven in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw even the embryo of me,
And in your book all its parts were down in writing,
As regards the days when they were formed
And there was not yet one among them." - (Psalms 139:13-16)..........."Men of Athens, I behold that in all things YOU seem to be more given to the fear of the deities than others are. 23 For instance, while passing along and carefully observing YOUR objects of veneration I also found an altar on which had been inscribed ‘To an Unknown God.’ Therefore what YOU are unknowingly giving godly devotion to, this I am publishing to YOU. 24 The God that made the world and all the things in it, being, as this One is, Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in handmade temples, 25 neither is he attended to by human hands as if he needed anything, because he himself gives to all [persons] life and breath and all things. 26 And he made out of one [man] every nation of men, to dwell upon the entire surface of the earth, and he decreed the appointed times and the set limits of the dwelling of [men], 27 for them to seek God, if they might grope for him and really find him, although, in fact, he is not far off from each one of us. 28 For by him we have life and move and exist, even as certain ones of the poets among YOU have said, ‘For we are also his progeny.’
29 “Seeing, therefore, that we are the progeny of God, we ought not to imagine that the Divine Being is like gold or silver or stone, like something sculptured by the art and contrivance of man. 30 True, God has overlooked the times of such ignorance, yet now he is telling mankind that they should all everywhere repent. 31 Because he has set a day in which he purposes to judge the inhabited earth in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and he has furnished a guarantee to all men in that he has resurrected him from the dead.” (Acts 17:22-31).............Besides His "book of nature", God, whose name is Jehovah (Psalm 83:18; more), has provided detailed WRITTEN information about Himself, His purposes for mankind, why the world is in the state it is in, instructions for living and survival, moral codes, comfort, hope, strengthening words, etc. in His now globally-delivered Bible. His Bible compliments the testimony of His "book of creation." IN HIS WORDS, as another signature of His Divinity/ Godship and truth; there are many PROPHESIES that have COME TRUE - HAVE BEEN FULFILLED. Further, many who have personally dealt with God's active force more than others - with God unmistakably helping them, etc., especially for them to do His known will, would never ungratefully DENY the powerful and saving help they received. Once one's spiritual eyes, mind, and heart are opened to these REALITIES, it would be crazy, dis-grateful, unrighteous, dishonest, and wrong to want to shut them and/or deny these things to others. Yet, sadly, MANY, as seen in this video and on this page, DO INEXCUSABLY DENY THE EXISTENCE and stated truth and will of the Creator. This is mostly because there are certain sins or evils that they practice and/or wish to "defend", which they KNOW - by at least testimony from their inborn conscience (if it isn't too calloused or near-dead, that is) and/or God's own written words - is condemned by God as being evil. Many love certain sins/evils more than they love God, truth, or righteousness. They make gods out of these sins/evils, and worship them by preaching LIES against the Creator God and His words of truth - as did Satan - and atheists often end up speaking the same kinds of lies and slander against God that Satan originally did in Eden, which brought death and trouble into this world to begin with. (Now we are seeing the culmination of that.) It was PROPHECIED that many would become fierce with this denial of and fighting against God - and that they would use a guise of FALSE spiritual "intelligence", and also inexcusable haughtiness, slander, blasphemy etc. to do so, even for the likewise prophesied motivation of being in want of homosexual sex (or wanting to "defend" it). (Romans 1:18-32) They would go so low as to speak conscienceless LIES, slander, and "SHOCKING THINGS" against God, so as to try to "exonerate" the sins/ evils they IDOLIZE. (JUDE 7,10,14-16) In doing this, although persons claim to have no god, they make Satan their god and controller/ slave master, and serve and do Satan's will, by their slander of God, and their LIES, which PRODUCE and PROMOTE/ CONDONE more EVIL and God-rebellion. Satan wants as many humans as possible to turn against God, join Satan in his rebellion against God, and so have to die on Armageddon Day from God, for their choices this way. THOSE WHO LOVE GOD AND LIFE DON'T FOLLOW THE LIES.

(Romans 1:24-32)........2000-year-old prophecy from the Creator, now STRONGLY and obviously being FULFILLED.........P.S. There IS NO "HELL"/ "HELLFIRE" - that's an anti-scriptural, demonic LIE that, yes, FALSE-to-God religions of "Babylon the Great" have evilly spread, and, yes, absolutely HAVE used, to control and extort money, etc. from people. God will soon intervene to bring all demonic LIE-teaching, evil-working, disobedient and disloyal-to-God, etc. FALSE religions of "Babylon the Great", globally, to a sudden END. He will follow that by exercising His vengeance against all last vestiges of evil and stubbornly and heinously evil and God-insolent persons too then. Atheism has been indicted as being inexcusable and evil by God, and it is doomed by Him also. (Revelation chapters 18 and 19) Best to reach for truth from Jehovah instead.
