There's a lot of hype in the world about climate change and global warming.
Make no mistake, the climate has been changing, but it's not like "they" are saying it is. And, is it really a result of carbon emissions? Is it a result of mankind doing things in the modern world with our technology, factories, automobiles, etc.?
First of all, let's look at what the Bible tells us about the earth.
Hosea 4:2-3 You make vows and break them; you kill and steal and commit adultery. There is violence everywhere, one murder after another. That is why your land is in mourning, and everyone is wasting away. Even the wild animals, the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea are disappearing.
The Lord very clearly states that the earth and everything in it is wasting away and dying because of sin.
In the book of Genesis, we have the record of the earth being flooded due to the wickedness of men and the abundance of sin.
This event took place approximately 4400 years ago. Prior to this, the earth was a much different place! Since the flood, the ice sheets from that flood have been melting slowly but surely, and that's what is affecting our climate.
The flood of Genesis changed a lot more than we think.
When God broke up the fountains of the great deep and opened the windows of heaven, we had a storm like no other storm! Have you ever heard of or seen a geyser that spews hot scalding water because of the pressure from the tremendous heat under the surface that causes it to release periodically? Have you heard about the massive, huge fields of lava flow that scientists can’t explain? The fountains of the great deep erupted with tremendous heat! When the windows of heaven were opened, for the first time in the history of the earth, the super cold of space (459.6 degrees below zero) came down into our atmosphere. You probably know that when a cold front meets a warm front that there’s going to be some stormy weather, right? Imagine what happened when that super frigid cold met with super heated water, lava and air? The surface of this planet was caught in a storm that makes a hurricane look like a single little harmless rain cloud.
For an animal to be
frozen in place, like they have found, it can’t happen with just a little snow
storm. To be frozen in stride while running, or with food in their mouth,
the temperature had to be at least 300 below zero and it had to happen really
fast. The windows of heaven were opened and the layer of water came
raining down in a rainstorm like never seen, and the super cold of space froze
everything when the cold air met the surface of the planet.
The ice sheets from
this event were massive sheets of ice that came all the way down to Kansas City.
There are washouts and objects left behind and all kinds of evidence that
scientists haven’t been able to explain that are easily explained when we
understand what happened.
Scientific data has proven that the magnetic poles took 6 violent swings about 4000 years ago. Ice at 300 degrees below zero or colder is magnetic! When the super cold from space froze the water it became magnetic and aligned itself over the magnetic poles of the planet. It’s no surprise that the thickest and coldest ice formed at the poles and spread toward the equator. The sun has been melting away the ice sheets for 4400 years but the poles are still the coldest because the layer of water that stabilized the atmospheric temperature is gone and the sun is warmest at the equator as we know it to be today.
The ice sheets have been melting ever since then! Global Warming?
Politicians and scientists today are trying to scare us with “Global Warming”, saying it’s the fault of mankind that the ice is melting and the ozone is going away. Despite the hundreds of scientists that actually deny that global warming is even a reality, the politicians try to convince us that it’s our fault. Money and power and a global agenda are the main reasons for this, but let’s just let that go for now. Ever since the ice sheets were formed, they have been melting away!
Just for your
information, the ozone is created by the sun. When the suns rays hit the
O2 molecules in the atmosphere some of them break in two and the resultant
oxygen atoms then attach to other O2 molecules turning them into O3, which is
ozone. The sun creates ozone! The methane gas that’s supposed to be
made by man and destroying the ozone is actually found in massive clouds above
the jungles of the world (Nature Magazine Jan. 2006). The plants produce
it. Incidentally, the ozone is thinner at the poles where there is less
sun light. There’s no “hole” that man is creating, it’s just naturally
thinner because the sun doesn’t shine as strong there!
The
oceans used to be a lot shallower and data shows that the ocean levels have been
rising for as long as it has been being recorded. The ice has been melting
for 4400 years and the ocean levels have been rising as the ice melts.
There are entire cities under the ocean waters. Why? A few thousand
years ago they built the city on the edge of the ocean and over a few hundred
years it got buried by rising sea levels.
Scientific
American, March 1997, has an article about how there is a whole lot of evidence
that huge areas of land, now under water, were exposed in the past.
Nature
magazine, December 2004, shows that the arctic was balmy in the past and
evidence that the whole planet was covered with vegetation. This is because
the earth did not have the ice caps at the poles prior to the flood.
The ice is definitely melting, and has been for over 4000 years, but it has nothing to do with human beings other than the sin that caused the changes in the first place.
So the earth is changing, and there is definitely climate change due to the melting ice and rising seas. Global warming may even be true because as the ice melts the average temperature is going to increase.
And we can't fix it! There's no way we can do anything to reverse what God has already done. The only thing we can do is repent and turn to God so that when He creates a New Heaven and a New Earth, and restores everything to perfection, we will be with Him!
