And God spoke all these words: ‘I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. You shall have no other gods before Me.’
Exodus 20: 1-3
Biblical Stewardship is not about worshipping the earth. Biblical Stewardship is about following the 1st and 2nd Great Commandments.
Science is NOT God.
Resource for a discussion of a biblical theology of climate change, “Just Thinking Podcast” EP #124,Darrel B. Harrison and Virgil “Omaha” Walker
We are told today that there is a climate crisis regarding our planet that threatens the lives of both men, plants and animals. It is alleged that this crisis is man-made and if we do not act there will be catastrophic consequences. The actions needed require power and an enormous amount of money to be given to government authorities. The truth of these statements needs to be questioned and we need to come to our own conclusions based on evidence that is not being widely made available to the public.

Teach the Children:
- We must learn to exercise discernment because people will sometimes use scientific information, statistics or concepts to offer “proof” for their incorrect ideas.
- God is in control of our entire world, and He is not going to allow man to destroy the earth that He created. Man often controls other men through fear.
- God knew that in a fallen world man would abuse the environment just as sin touches every aspect of our lives. He made the world and everything in it to be preserved even as man is not always a good steward of His creation.
Do you know the ordinances of the heavens, Or do you establish their rule over the earth?
