Why Don’t Humanity’s Problems Go Away?

War, poverty, conflict, the fear of death — humanity has wrestled with these problems endlessly, through science, philosophy, and countless religions. Technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, so why do these fundamental problems keep repeating?

Philosophy has long posed the question, “Know thyself.” Many religions have taught about God and humanity too. But look closely, and something strange emerges — they teach that no one can know where or how God exists, that humans shouldn’t even try to see God, while at the same time explaining that God molded humans out of clay. This contradiction — describing in detail something declared unknowable — has been accepted as “normal theology.”

The True Bible points out this contradiction directly.

“But today, in Christianity, Buddhism, and such, they do not know what the spirit of a person is. If you do not know what this spirit is, is that religion? That is not religion.” — DGD 8:12-14

How was this possible? Because in a dark world, there was no knowledge by which to discern the truth.

Think of a firefly, an oil lamp, a campfire. Each gives off light, but only within a limited range. Knowledge of God and humanity has been the same way — every civilization, every religion, has cast only a partial light, and today’s problems are surfacing right at the edge where that light runs out. While human civilization has chased visible, material value, the thing that matters most — the human being itself, and the inner consciousness that keeps a person alive — has been neglected.

This is where The True Bible begins. By rediscovering God and humanity, not partially but completely, it illuminates the most fundamental problem of all — life and death.

For me, as one person, to correctly know my own consciousness within this light of truth — The True Bible says that is where the change begins, and that change is the very principle by which a whole world is ultimately restored.
