Global Warming: What does the Bible Say?

Question

Scientist paint a gloomy picture of the earth and man´s future.

They say carbon dioxide and other air pollution is collecting in the atmosphere like a thickening blanket, trapping the sun's heat and causing the planet to warm up.

But here is the good news. The Bible says:

"there will be a time of peace, prosperity and stability, when the earth will burgeon forth anew, the lion will lie down with the lamb, and the goat will give suck to the tiny bee."

I say the bible has got it right again. Surely this is the truth?

Answer 1

Sorry Pastor, but a book of stories can't stop global warming.

You're ignoring science at your own peril. You, therefore, have no morals. You're condemning future generations because of your ignorance of fact...

Please tell me why 400 Nobel Prize winners are wrong and George W. Bush and a 2000 year old collection of stories is right...

Further to a posters comments <
To think we as humans have no impact on the ecology of this Earth is irresponsible. Combusting 100's of billions of tons of fossil fuels and coal per year does have an impact. To state otherwise is to have your head firmly embedded in the sand.>>

Answer 2

The Bible says that during the time of the antichrist the worlds problems will seem to have disapeared. It's the time leading up to that when there will be such things as you are talking about. Here's a scripture.

Luke 21:11
There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.


I definately think that global warming falls under the fearful events category. I hope this helps. Keep searching for truth, you will find it. God Bless

Burning those with fireplace is talking in terms of the burning, or suffering one is going via whilst they are compelled to alter their assumptions using fact they have ignored to do it on their own, and to that end reality is painful to them using fact they love a lie, however the lie could be "burned" away, as all non everlasting issues could die, so too do human fancy and imaginings whilst they do no longer seem to be concordant with the certainty. it somewhat is what occurs whilst the fast international is valued above the everlasting reality. solar references the the features of the guy(s) given Holy Spirit upon the international of mankind inwardly, like that of the emblem of the actual solar to the earth. Its heat temperature energizes existence, its mild brings illumination to the seeing eye etc. So the symbolism of the solar, an allusion to the becoming of non secular forces to its zenith of precipitous replace, has ever been used to connote the flexibility of the Day of God. So no it does not seek advice from worldwide warming in keeping with se IMO, in spite of the shown fact that it particularly is almost an prolonged iciness is ending, and the flood replace is climatic. If human beings might artwork together this might end to look a situation, yet a potential of reminding human beings of their interdependence, that's something that has been unconsciously wanted for an prolonged time. God bless.

Hey Muffinman and Toyota...
You forget something in your "global warming" theories that no one will ever directly answer... and neither will you. The Earth has always gone through climate changes ALWAYS. Even prior to proven human existance on this planet there is proof of the Earths climate going through freezing periods and hot periods. Remember reading about the Ice Age? Well, guess what, it warmed up! How can this be???? SUV weren't invented yet???
To think you, as humans can have any impact on the ecology of this Earth is rather arrogant. The truth is that you make absolutely no difference to this world in the grand scheme of things. You only wish you did.

Answer 7

The Bible also says we should be stewards of the earth. We haven't done a very good job have we?

Answer 8

2 Peter 3:10 says this: "But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare."

Sounds a little gloomy to me. The new earth comes after his 2nd coming.

Answer 9

Pastor if this is what makes life easier and brighter for you....I defend your right to believe it.

For me....this "good news" means nothing.

Answer 10

Global warming is a bunch crap. It is just a science fiction phrase people use to sound cool.

Trust the Bible. It is directly from the God that created the heavens and the earth!
