If you believe that God created this earth...?

Question

What are you doing to take care of it?

Answer 1

God created the earth and we mess it up.

Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Gen 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Gen 1:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
Gen 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Deu 10:14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD's thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is.

Job 12:10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

2Ch 7:13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;
2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Exo 23:12 Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine *** may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed.

Luk 12:6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?

Gen 2:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

Isa 11:6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.
Isa 11:7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
Isa 11:8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice's den.
Isa 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

Jer 12:4 How long shall the land mourn, and the herbs of every field wither, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein? the beasts are consumed, and the birds; because they said, He shall not see our last end.

Job 12:7 But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:
Job 12:8 Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.
Job 12:9 Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?
Job 12:10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.


The earth is in bad shape because of SIN but God's word also gives us hope:

2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth
also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

2Pe 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Rev 21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Peace be with you

Answer 2

whether or now no longer the Universe was created via way of God is a query that may not be in a position to be examined, so it incredibly is incredibly a remember of theory. i think of the entire factor stepped forward for sure. There was no "clever layout." the purpose i think of it extremely is thinking the certainty that there is no longer something in the Universe which will require an intelligence to create, (to boot what we people have created.) yet whether you probable did have self assurance God made all of it, you're able to nonetheless be caught with the question of ways and while. for sure the biblical account, the creationist view, is grossly incorrect. it incredibly is contradictory to truly each and all of the information. and then, as one answerer has implied, there could be continuously the question of what created God? If God is eternal, they why now no longer the Universe? If God purely popped into being, then why no longer the Universe? if youin case you ask your instructor why he/she believes this, the respond will the two be non secular, (conventional on the bible); or customarily unscientific, (per man or woman incredulity approximately uncomplicated origins, ie. The concept of what looks available or possibly). i assume each and each are unsuitable.

Answer 3

We should take care of it responsibly. Many people do not dump oil from their cars into the soil, rather they recycle it. They also process aluminum and glass, many communities have recycling efforts to lessen the trash burden. The atmosphere and warming...Jesus is coming very soon, He made this earth by merely speaking it into existence, I don't doubt for a second when the bible says " a new heaven and new earth" it will be done.

Answer 4

I adopted 3 highways solo, started 21 recycling centers, and built an incinerator to burn all my trash, and vacuum the fumes into very sturdy bottles which are later launched into outer space.

No, I actually just go down the street and occasionally pick up pieces of litter that I would be able to carry. It's not a lot, but every little bit helps.

Answer 5

Fair question. We have always taught our children about taking care of the earth and littering and the consequences of such.
Also about the large amounts of wet lands used to build malls. To this day my son shakes his head in disgust every time we pass these greed motivated constructions (destruction) sites.

Answer 6

I don't believe in God, so please give us more sensible reasons for looking after the earth. George Bush apparently believes in God, and he couldn't care less about taking care of the earth, so it may be up to the Atheists to do the job.

Answer 7

I recycle, etc., do all that I can to keep it clean. But I'm like a tiny ant,in a giant mountain of contaminated waste. trying to clean up the whole pile. Wishing someone would join me. How big is your pile?........Nice to have met you.

Answer 8

God didn't create the Earth. God is a superstition.

Those that believe he did create it are waiting for Jesus to return and destroy the Earth. They actually look forward to a war that will destroy all of the Earth so they are taken up to Heaven.

Answer 9

i will start by calling all my co-workers over to look at this stupid question so we can all laugh, then feel better about ourselves, and go have a great weekend at the beach or in the mountains looking at how great Gods creations are

Answer 10

This world is in entropy as the Bible states that it will be.
