In recent times, we have heard pros and
cons of the proposed implementation of the “Green New Deal” and the opinion of
some that “if something is not done, the world will cease to exist.” That is certainly not a statement I would
agree with. If the world ceases, it will
because God chooses for it to end. I believe in doing what we can to protect God’s
creation and appreciate what He has provided man, but God is the One in control.
Just this year most every place had an
abundance of snow and cold even in the South where it snows very little. Is anyone listening? During the snow and freeze, Texas lost power
due to the “Green Deal” windmills that froze leaving many people with no heat for
themselves and their homes. Is anyone
listening? Recently there was a cyber attack
on a gas industry leaving many without gas for transportation. That certainly goes against sound judgment of
shutting down construction of a pipeline. Is anyone listening?
In the way of Socialism, the government is
providing so much unemployment benefits that people do not want to work. Jobs are being posted with no one accepting. God
intended for people to work. Is anyone listening?
In the way of beef, we are hearing that
cows are bad for the environment. We
need to eat artificial man-made food rather than beef. I am sure God would not have created cows if
they were going to destroy the earth. Is
anyone listening?
Is anyone reading God’s Word? Who
created the world? Who is in control of
all things? Is anyone listening?
Creation:
Genesis 1:14 “And God said, Let there be lights in the
firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for
signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years”:
Genesis 8:22 “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer
and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”
Psalm 104:19 “He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going
down.”
Daniel 2:21a “And he changeth the times and the seasons:”
Even God worked and He expects us to do so, as well:
Genesis 2:2a “And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made;”
Exodus 34:21a “Six days thou shalt work…”
Deuteronomy 5:13 “Six days thou shalt labour, and do
all thy work:”
2
Thessalonians 3:10 “For
even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work,
neither should he eat.”
Meat for Food:
Genesis 1:24 "And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so."
Genesis 9:3 “Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green
herb have I given you all things.”
