Can one believe in both God and Climate Change? The people behind the idea of Climate Change would have you believe that the fuels that God gave us are somehow going the destroy the climate of His world He created.

They would have us believe that it is up to mankind to “save” itself or that saving the climate is having us be good stewards. Please show me where one instance is in the Bible where God beseeches man to “save” the Earth. He never does. What He does say in Romans 1:25 is “They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creation instead of the Creator”.

God created the Earth in Genesis. He used the weather to destroy mankind in the Flood. He has destroyed cities with fire. He has caused droughts and water to turn to blood in Egypt. Jesus calmed the wind and the waves and walked upon the water. If the climate changes destructively you need to be on your knees imploring God, not trying to change the weather through technology.

This world that we live in is just a wisp according to James 4:14 it is written, “What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.”

Come back to faith in God and stop living by sight and the understanding of men. Isaiah 55 says, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.”

Jesus will return and when He does Revelation 21:1 tells us “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.” Jesus declares in John 14:6 “I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Romans 14:10-11 is firm when it says, “… For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written, as I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess God.”

I implore all Christians to start actively believing in the Word. Stand up for your God in front of men in the way you want Him to stand up for you.

Yes, to some this will read as silliness and some of you will understand what I am saying. Pray you are one that understands.
