What should Christians think about all this Global Warming rhetoric of doom and gloom? Is Global Warming even true? What if it is true? Can it be stopped? What happens if we cannot stop it?
Those who whole heartedly believe Global Warming is true are very passionate about trying to stop it. The reason they will give is that if we do not stop Global Warming the human race will cease to exist.
They truly believe that human behaviors are causing the warming and that they are saving the planet and saving the human race by demanding that governments pass laws to stop the human effects contributing to Global Warming. This sounds like a very noble cause. Even Christians are caught up in this belief and believe that they are somehow helping God save the planet and save the human race.
Does that sound a bit condescending towards God? Our all powerful Jehovah God, the One who spoke this world into existence, the One who created the human race and all the creatures of the world, needs our help to save His planet and save His human race?
They will say ‘didn’t God put man in charge of taking care of this earth?’ “And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it”. (Gen 2:15)
Ok, isn’t this a good point. God did place Adam and Eve into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. So shouldn’t we do all we can to take care of this planet? Yes we should, but the question is, is Global Warming truly a threat to the end of life on earth?
Let’s fast forward into the future of our planet and the human race yet to come. Yes Christian, God has already told us what the end of this planet will be. Is it Global Warming that destroys this planet and all the life that is in it?
According to the Word of God, it is not Global Warming which the human race has to fear. God has given us His time line of events, both what has happened already in the past and that which is to happen in the future. That which has already taken place had been foretold in the Bible centuries before the events actually took place. With this 100% fulfillment rate we can rest assured that all that has been foretold that is still yet to come will also come to pass just as God declares it will.
Take the time to read the book of Revelation for it gives you a promise from God. “Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.” (Rev 1:3)
In this book you will find the future events and times which they are to come. You will see that manmade Global Warming destroying the planet is nowhere to be found, so that fear you can dismiss from your worries. However there is an end coming and it is not a good end for those who refuse to believe God and refuse to be a friend of God.
If you are a Christian you believe God. You believe God when He says He is going to physically return to earth and sit on His throne in Jerusalem. You believe God when He says He is going to reign there for 1000 years. You believe God when He says He is going to save all of those who believe He, Jesus Christ, is the Son of God and destroy all of those who reject He, Jesus Christ, is the Son of God.
Since God is going to be coming down from heaven and be found sitting on His throne in Jerusalem it is obvious Global Warming destroying the planet is not going to happened.
So if you are a Christian, directing your passion on Global Warming destroying the human race is truly misguided. God has complete control over the climate of His solar system just fine.
God does however call upon us to have a passion for the lost, for those who need to hear the gospel. We who know the truth of what is to come should have a passion of warning people and pointing people to God’s only means of salvation which is by Grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
God alone has decided the beginning and the transforming stages of this world. No such thing as Global Warming is going to end life upon this planet. So will man’s industrial pollutions cause the planet to warm up a tick? Possibly. Will this cause the extinction of mankind? Not according to the Scriptures. The beginning and the world without end rest in the absolute control of Jehovah God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
“And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” ( Rev 21:6-8 )
Blessings!
