Global Warming Alert!

Part 2:

“Why Is There Global Warming?”

To read Part 1, click here…September 23rd (Global Warming Alert!)

.

There has been an alarm sounding for several decades now, concerning global warming.

.

Day and night, the media has been warning the world that our technology and industry has created an increase in global temperature.

IS THE PLANET WARMING, COOLING…OR BOTH?

.

Well, of course, there is an ongoing debate as to whether or not the globe has been going through a number of years of global cooling now. Certainly in some areas of our land, there has been severe drought for a number of years. So instead of calling it “Global Warming”, they now call it “Climate Change”, which allows for cold spells as well as hot spells, making these climate activists look, not nearly so fraudulent.

.

But just how significant the role that technology and industry plays in affecting the climate has also been part of the current ongoing debate.

.

But perhaps it’s true. Yes, maybe our powerful high-tech/industrial world does indeed affect the climate.

.

But the truth is, nobody actually knows for certain (even though many claim they know for sure).

CLIMATE CHANGE IN CENTURIES PAST

.

However, the fact is, regional drought and even warming is nothing new.

.

Yes, throughout history there has been warming in certain areas.

.

For instance, during the warming of one particular part of the globe, long extinct ancient villages and remnants of ancient forests have been exposed from the receding glacier ice in those areas.

.

Also, the Bible reveals that much of the Middle East was once very lush, tropical forests and meadows, such as ancient Israel. And the ancient city-state of Babylon was probably another area which was once very lush and green during the days of Nebuchadnezzar, before it finally became a barren desert as it is, even now.

“He turneth…a…fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.”

.

But just what was the source of that global warming back in those days? After all, there was no industrial technology back in those past millenniums.

.

Well, the Bible reveals one very important truth about climate change in Psalm 107:33, 34…“He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground; A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.”

.

Here we realize that it is God who sometimes punishes a culture’s immorality by turning its luscious greenery into dry desert.

.

It’s just very sad that this current-day atheistic culture no longer understands nor assents to these proven Bible truths, as did many of the western culture’s Christian forefathers!

“He turneth…dry ground into watersprings.”

.

**Furthermore, should a society return from its licentious and/or its unjust/violent ways, God can certainly reverse that judgment…**

.

Listen again to this same Psalm 107…“He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings. And there He maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation; And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.” Psalm 107:35, 36

.

And so, whatever the reason for our current global warming (or “global cooling”, as many other meteorologists insist) which is now occurring, God can easily bless a nation which returns in full and true repentance back to Heaven’s ways! As the above Psalm 107 affirms, God can easily turn, “the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.”

.

The great question which must be answered is simply this: “Are we willing to turn to Him for help? Will this unbelieving and antichrist society ever return back from our rebellion against Heaven?”

“If My people,

which are called by My name,

shall humble themselves, and pray,

and seek My face,

and turn from their wicked ways;

then will I hear from Heaven,

and will forgive their sin,

and will heal their land.”

2nd Chronicles 7:14

LOOSING THE BANDS OF ORION

.

God spoke several times of Orion, in Scripture. His question to Job was a very mystifying question, to say the least… “Canst thou…loose the bands of Orion?” Job 38:31. Such a strange question, indeed! How could a constellation have its bands loosed, much less, even have bands? Puzzling, puzzling!

.

But now, He is revealing this bright and beautiful constellation in a way that has never before been seen. God Himself is loosing Orion’s bands, as He is just now unraveling this age-old mystery. And we are beginning to understand that this most infamous of all constellations is nothing less than a remarkable metaphor concerning Jesus.

.

THE 5 OFFICES OF ORION

.

But like most of the other Signs which this website reveals, Orion too, has much more to say as he changes his position in the sky. And this Soldier in the Heavens puts on different garb, as he presents the five awesome aspects of his various offices. From ‘Orion the Soldier’, and ‘Orion the Reaper’, and ‘Orion the Archer’, and ‘The Cross of Orion’, and last but certainly not least, “Orion, The Good Shepherd”. This amazing constellation presents a very complex revelation of the God’s magnificent love for a fallen planet.

.

So read on and discover, “things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.” Matthew 13:35
