about this blog...

This blog exists to proclaim "Jesus Christ and Him crucified" (1 Cor. 2:2) and to expose and reprove the "unfruitful works of darkness" (Eph. 5:11). Please don't take anything I say for granted. Remember the Bereans "received the word with all readiness of mind", but they also "searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so" (Acts 17:11). Christians have a responsibility to be watchful and to heed the warnings we receive from the Word of God. Remember what Jesus said: "...When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?" (Matthew 16:2-3)

More Global Warming

I just saw another in a seemingly endless procession of news stories concerning "climate change." It's interesting that these stories are always one-sided and obviously politically motivated. While most experts seem to agree that we are in a warming period, it is not politically expedient for them to admit that the earth has natural cycles of warming and cooling and that our burning fossil fuels adds very little to the warming phase. Later on, I may get more into the technical end of this discussion. Right now, however, I just wanted to show what the Bible has to say about this and point out that we do not need to succumb to the fear tactics used by proponents of the man-made global warming hypothesis. This text is immediately following Noah's departure from the ark after God had miraculously preserved his family through the global flood. In Genesis 8:21-22, the Lord promised:

"I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. (22) While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
We can confidently rest on this promise, and in the near future, I hope to give many reasons why we can absolutely trust that the Bible alone is the Word of God. So stay tuned.
