Shincheonji Bible: Why do we need God?

Many people in the world today ask themselves everyday, "Why do I need God?" 

So why do we need God? Some say we don't need God because they are able to live life comfortably without a problem.

So then why do we need God? The answer is because God is life. 

In the time of Adam and his generation, God once was one with man. God was among His creation and God loved all that He created. When God was with man, man was destined to live eternity with their creator. However, as soon as the covenant between God and man was broken, sin had entered and death came into the world of Adam (Rm 5:12-14, Hos 6:7). Life was detached from man and life now must return.

The opportunity for life to return to the generation of Adam came during the time of Noah. Noah was the one whom God made a covenant with and Noah kept his part by do as God commanded. However, the people did not listen to the words of God through Noah and that is when death was became their destination while the people of Noah entered life.

Then we have to see if this continued all throughout the Bible, and if we do, we will realize it has. So, why do we need God? Because He is life and the way to life. If we look in John 1:1-5 the words God gave to Jesus was the way to life. Life of man has been 70-80 years as written in Psalms. Ever since Gn 6:3, God could not contend with men forever and his days became 120 years and later 70-80 years. Then God's purpose originally was for man to live eternally with God. We must realize that no matter how much we live on earth without problems, there will always be problems and there will also be joys. However, once death comes upon every individual, all those joys are no longer remembered. This is why life is so precious, and because of the existence of life, we are able to have joy. Without the existence of life, there would also be no joy. 

Let us learn more and see how then we can have life deeply!
