Climate Crisis Hoax

[Lanolin]

Lanolin ancient Empires did what they did to establish their authority and their prosperity it was accepted practice to lay claim to the riches of others who they conquered including the booty which was often us. Agreed. The colonial empires certainly done many bad things to in rich themselves be that privately or in the name of her majesty's government . But also under the umbrella of Christianity the colonial empires brought a much better way of life. Including introducing the gospel of Jesus Christ and the gift of eternal life to the far reaches of the world I do believe. Which was a far more favourable empire than any other pagan empire would have given and permitted bordering on extermination for less populated continents or islands . Even before the age of colonial empires the tribal warfare amongst clans and tribes was universal as it was in Australia and NZ too. Perhaps Ernie Dingo a Australian Aboriginal summed it up best in one of his documentaries ( I’m really glad that it was the British that invaded Australia and not someone else ) As to man subduing the world. We do find in Genesis 2: 26 Genesis 2:28. It be a Divine directive to do so . And not only to have dominion over the animal kingdom but for us to go forth and multiply and to have dominion over the entire earth as well. .

Its not accepted practice anymore to do this - rape and kill and steal and destroy. I'm not 'glad' that the British invaded Australia. But at least they are now apologising for the horrific stuff they did to the Aboriginal people and are now only realising they have killed the Great Barrier Reef.

It wasn't under the umbrella of Christianity to ruin peoples lives and their environment though, and to treat animals cruelly. This is why SPCA, hospitals for the sick and dying and schools for children were created.

People forget we have a NEW Testament in which Jesus said to feed the sheep and lambs, not slaughter them. Jesus already made that sacrifice.

Christians need to realise God's kingdom is not of this world and was not ever related to human empire building, whether tribal or colonial.

You say it’s not a accepted practice anymore to rape, kill & steal. Lanolin It was never a accepted practice at least in the eyes of God. Your not happy that the British invaded Australia or NZ for that matter You should be much happy that they did the very reason you still have a Christian heritage and not a pagan one. For how much longer I do not know. But I’m sure you’ll notice difference if we were to return to dream time and our pagan past. But let’s grant you your wish and say the British never claimed Australia or NZ.. Do you really think a country the size of Australia with a population of few hundred thousand Aboriginals and a native population far smaller for NZ would be allowed to roam freely as it did. Perhaps a different culture without the restraints of a Christian Spirit nor a Christian heritage may have moved in. Be careful what you wish for I did mention the words of Ernie Dingo in my previous post for a reason ( I’m really glad that it was the British that invaded Australia. ) I’ll let you think deeper upon those wise words . As to the Great Barrier Reef being destroyed by pollution. Lanolin there be some disagreement on that amongst the he scientists. Some say the wash out of chemicals and fertilisers from the rivers others believe it be just a natural occurrence coral does die a natural process. And what is not often mentioned is the regrowth and expansion of the reef which be some 250 -300 kilometres long and with a width much larger.

you are correct

I do not have a christian heritage.
I am a born again Christian, I have NO 'heritage'. All Christians come from pagan/secular backgrounds, but the important thing is we all born again.

Tell me what I have inherited..I don't actually own any property..nor will I on this earth. I merely look after it.

I’m sure most of our ancestors were pagans through the ages. But that all changed upon hearing the gospel of Jesus Christ to creating a Christian heritage amongst many nations. You say you don’t have a Christian heritage. OK

Nope.
I am a citizen of heaven just pilgrimaging here on earth. My inheritance is in heaven - it is not on earth. All we are doing on earth is spreading the gospel not building an earthly man-made empire.

 

[Lanolin]

When did my ancestors hear the gospel? I don't think any of mine did. And they are dead and gone.
When you are born again you are of Christ and you become part of the blessing of Abraham. It doesn't matter who your own ancestors are, you get adopted into Gods family - and you can be living anywhere on earth.

The important thing about living on earth is that it is God's creation and that we look after it. All living things are God's creation -creatures, plants, fungi, the mountains, the rivers etc. That was all made by God. It is not in things made by man.

Can you imagine how much methane gas was released by the dinosaurs a billion years ago?

The scientists that study this stuff have guessed that there were roughly 10 Dino's per square kilometer (0.4 square kilometer) of vegetated land. The team's analyses of modern ruminants suggest a Dino might give off about 4.2 pounds (1.9 kilograms) of methane daily and that would have been for about 200 million years.

Of course if anyone is a Young Earther, this would have no application as the Dinos would only have been around a thousand years and died out 5000 years ago.

This is yet another reason to be in awe of God and His perfect wisdom. He created this world with the ability to maintain balance, and it done that wonderfully.

It's just satan ruining things as usual by taking short cuts and not having patience. Then he puts ideas and temptations into people's minds and then they think they can do better without God.

Gods ways are higher than our ways and are much better. He made the seasons and the times for everything to grow, and created the land and the seas and rivers and everything. We must respect and cherish God's creation. What God has given Adam to do is name all the animals though lol.

Remember how man was so naughty and depraved that God sent a huge flood and it practically destroyed mankind and all the creatures that didn't get on the Ark. Then after that he sent a rainbow, as a covenant between all His creatures.

This is not to say we never get floods anymore but they are not on the scale of the huge deluge. Basically we on this planet or still living in the aftermath of that one - the earth is tipped on its axis because of this huge displacement of water, half the planet is ocean (if you look on one side, the Pacific ocean practically covers one side where there is nothing but tiny islands in water. ) And we are NOT sea creatures. We humans have two legs and need to live on land. We don't have wings either. God designed us this way.

YES you do.

Ephesians 1:11 says..............
"In [Christ] we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will".

Colossians 3:24...........
" knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ."

YOU have missed the whole point of being Born Again. Our inheritance is, in a word, HEAVEN!
It is the sum total of all God has promised us in salvation. Words related to inheritance in Scripture are portion and heritage.

1 Peter 1:4 describes this inheritance further, saying that we have been born again "into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you."!!!!!!!!!!

THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE INHERIED!

Did you not realize that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the real estate business???? HE gives away mansions!
John 14:1-3............
" Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."
