Earth Day 2010: Celebrating 40 years of Deception
Then God said, " Let us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth" - Genesis 1:26
Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth." - Genesis 1:28
Wow, what a plan that the Creator of all things had in the beginning! We, as humans, were the crown jewel of His creation. We were made in His image for His glory and according to His word we were meant to have dominion over the earth. We were to subdue it, be fruitful, multiply, and fill all of the earth. That plan was drastically altered when the devil was slithering through the garden and deceived our first parents. From that point on, our earth has never been and will never be the same. Glory to God for sending humanity His Son to save us! Jesus; who was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was crucified on the cross for my sins and yours, and on the third day rose from the dead ... who now sits at the right hand of Our Father. It is He who is our hope ... NOT the reduction of carbon admissions.
But, leave it to a corrupt political system and a deceived society to utilize environmental stewardship for their own selfish gain and advancement. You must understand, that the "Powers-That-Be" could really care less about the environment. They are using the "Environmental Movement" as a vehicle to advance their globalist agenda, line their pockets and remove the obstacle of Biblical Christianity from the landscape. Take a step back shall we and let us look at the origins of Earth Day.
"Earth Day" did not start out as "Earth Day" ... it was conceived by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson from Wisconsin as a National Environmental Teach-In. Wouldn't you know it, another "teach-in" during the late 1960s and early 1970s ... but I digress. Nelson and his cronies directed the participants to utilize "The Environmental Handbook" to aide in facilitating discussions and putting ideas into practice. Did you know that each stream and tree has its own guardian spirit? I didn't either until I threw out all of my common sense and logic and read from The Environmental Handbook. This type of thinking/worldview can be bucketed into what is called PANTHEISM. Pantheism is nothing more than a form of spiritual naturalism. Its underlying belief is that god and the material world are one and the same thing and that god is present in everything ... all is god and god is all - So, go strike up a conversation today with your willow tree and try to find salvation for your lost soul? What the handbook does throughout its many pages is demonize Christianity and hold it responsible for the miseries of the world. On page 20, they make the claim that Christians believe that it is God's will for us to exploit the planet - I don't recall anything written in Genesis 1 that directed humanity to exploit creation - do you? And on page 25, The Handbook goes as far as to blame Christians for the worsening ecological crisis ... And I thought that this movement was about saving the planet?
I will not be replacing my Bible any time soon for The Environmental Handbook, but those who embrace Eastern Religions and Fundamental Mormonism might. You can see for yourself if you look at page 331 in the handbook. It exhorts society to have a revolution of consciousness and enlightenment while waving the banner(s) of the - Gnostic's, Marxists, Taoists, Quakers, Indians, and Shamans. Turn back a couple of pages to 324 and you will find endorsements for polygamy and group marriage ... bottom line - replace Christianity!
The pity of it all is that Earth Day and the Environmental Movement have been embraced by the mainstream church. Can you believe it? The church has embraced a movement that set out to destroy and replace the very essence of what Christianity stood for in the world. Biblical churches exclaiming and teaching Christ crucified are being replaced with Emergent/Apostate churches chattering about missional awareness. The Lord told us in His word that there would be days like these: For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside by fables - II Timothy 4:3-4.
No environmental movement, handbook, agency or government program can save this planet - only God can! We, as a civilization, will cease to exist here on planet earth. It is a matter of biblical fact and a matter of time. Don't get me wrong, we need to do everything that we can to preserve and protect what God has given to us, but that does not change the fact that we are all living on/in a sinful and fallen planet. To exalt birds, trees, plants, and the delta smelt above humanity goes against the design of creation. Take a second and think about something ... there are people on this earth that will do everything in their power to protect and preserve a moose, but will then turn around and make an appointment at the abortion clinic the next week ... how does that make any sense? How is that even justified? We are made to feel guilty about endangering a flock of geese, but we can rejoice in the murder of 50 million babies under the banner of freedom ... insanity? It just doesn't add up to me, but I am open to have anybody explain this line of thinking ... any takers?
On this Earth Day may we gaze upon the face of God. May we allow Him to expose our sins to us and may we fall on our faces crying out for mercy. We do have hope as a planet, as a society, as humanity - it is in the saving work of Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ alone. Our hope is in Him and any preacher, pastor, book or movement that tells society otherwise is deceiving us.
