Why would anyone in the world object to the acknowledgement of the origin of all creation?
1) the need to be considered (by self AND others) intellectually superior (ego).
2) fear of being accountable (shamed conscience).
3) partisan and shallow understanding of Him (God does not want anyone to 'VOTE' for Him and does not want anyone to join a 'club' or conform to a bureaucratic set of rules).
Very often, God has been misrepresented as a tyrant that imposes a written code on the human race,...that misunderstanding is common among people who simply refuse to RESPECT (love) their fellow human being.
The origin (creator) did not make us machines because He wanted us to be able to enjoy life. The first members of the human race (Adam and Eve) misused their free will and disobeyed Him by eating of the tree of conscience. That is why all of their children and descendents (us) inherited the ability to know right from wrong and are held accountable for what we do. In our own natural state, we are ineligible to return to the Creator (because we are imperfect), but the Creator wants us back because He loves us, so the Creator sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to purify us.
It's as simple as that.
Do NOT fear God (only LOVE Him). It is wise for a criminal or someone with a reprobate mind to LEARN to fear Him and recognize that God will have to be reckoned with whether they like it or not after they pass away (the fear of God is only the BEGINNING of wisdom), but anyone who has love in their heart and learns to be mindful of Him shall ONLY love Him (with ALL their heart, mind, soul and strength) and their love will be perfected (1 John 4:18).
God is often misunderstood because "God is love" and 'love' is a very alien (strange) concept to human nature. Christian scholars teach that there are 'TYPES' of love (agape, philos, eros, and storge). Common sense will tell you that these are not TYPES of love but types of RELATIONSHIPS because love is simply an ATTITUDE of mind and heart. This is why God is very often misunderstood.
Without a good understanding of what LOVE is, you cannot have a good understanding of God (because "God is...LOVE").
It will take courage to learn to be mindful of Him, but the prize is worth the journey. Learn to love Him most of all because He is where the people came from, and you'll recieve the rewards He has to offer.
