Our Creator has provided everything we need to find Him and walk out the plan He has for our lives. His word tells us in these last days many will worship the creation and not the Creator, that is what is happening right before us with this climate change lie.

Our Father gave us a gift in which to live, learn of Him and sleep in the Hope of His Kingdom.

He gave us His creation made to be perfect and kept by those who received His gift. Unhappily not even we who are grateful to Him for this gift have done a good job of maintaining it, but this is already foretold to be by our Father.

I do not believe it is worshiping this age to take care of the gift for all mankind, it is akin to saying thank you for a gift then tossing it into the Valley of Hinnom.

I simply want to live in balance with nature. That applies regardless of faith. There's a lot to be said for a simpler life and understanding how the natives lived.

I haave always been overjoyed to see the love of our Father in His creation just for each of us.

When I first was given to believe, I went to the mountains to study my newly acquired Bible for the first time through.

Hummingbirds would come to my isolated campsite each morning, get right up to my nose, then continue on ther way. I could ask for something in the name of Yeshua, and somting materialized, ev en in the middle of the night.

One day staqnding and being in awe of our Father's incredible handiwork, I was seeing the beuaty of the trees, the birds, the mountains, the air, the clouds, and all. Suddenly, although all of these things were yet in my sight, I saw them as dead, like props, and I realized they are not a big deal, but important to our time here. All for the benefit of our staqy.

How we look forward to the true Kingsom. Praise God, amen.

Electric cars are a sham, We are required to be good stewards of His creation, of course. Falling for the Green Agenda is idol worship, leaning on our own understanding and not seeking and walking out His plan in complete dependence and relationship.

IF we are truly Christian, we know our Lord and Savior and lean not on our own understanding, and we will know He has supplied ALL our needs.
IF we ARE not truly Christian but only outward form christians as Jesus said many or most would be, we will fall for the lie that He is not capable of providing for His own as He promised He would.
He always works with the remnant, it is never a majority that are truly His.

If you are using a microwave, originally called a radar range, then you are poisoning yourself.
Where do people get such dumb ideas? Microwaves are perfectly safe as long as the seals are good. Microwaves will burn skin but they are not toxic. I worked with microwave devices for nearly four years in my early 20's. I'm now 70. I'd starve to death without a microwave oven. Fear and worry are really toxic. There are enough real problems in the world without making them up. Oh, and 5G is perfectly safe also.

They are a blessing for many, I have trouble understanding why we cannot or will not access the free gift of healing Jesus paid for 2000 years ago at the whipping post.
We were never intended to die of any illness, it is an attack of the adversary.
It's a dilemma. However, God is not obliged to heal anyone at anytime. Physical death is the lot of all people, Christians included. God does not make people sick. However, He will use sickness to bring about a change of heart, bring down the proud and bring the rebellious to a halt. Satan also will take advantage if we let out guard down. I hadn't been in hospital for 45 years and I started patting myself on the back. I've had 3 trips in an ambulance since. The last two events could easily have been fatal. God is gracious and spared my life. I'm 70. Whatever the means, healing is still from God. Our bodies are amazing and God created us that way.

He isn't "obliged" , it is His very nature that we be well, some problems may be sowing and reaping, It is the adversary who comes to steal, kill and destroy, it is the very nature of God demonstrated by Jesus that we all be healed and restored. appropriating it today is the challenge.

I'm not sure about you definition of climate change, and I'm not sure how much man is contributing to the CO2 in the atmosphere. We do know that the levels are increasing, and that there are many weather patterns that are changing. I also know that God gives man the wisdom to identify the problem, and solve it.

There are many examples of man's influence on weather patterns in the twentieth century. One of the most damaging problems, was the dust bowl problems of the late twenties and into the thirties. Man plowed up much of the great plains, and planted wheat. After the harvest was completed, he burned the stubble, and plowed the ground for the next crop. The smoke from the burning of the stubble changed the wind patterns. Instead of moisture from the Gulf of Mexico dropping rain, the dry winds off the Rockies, picked up the dust and blew it across the Appalachians and all the way to the east coast. The result was crop failures for several years. It wasn't until FDR's New Deal, CCC Program, planted trees from the gulf coast to the northern plains that the climate returned to normal. A new field of science grew out of this man made disaster. It's called soil conservation, and as result of it, we now feed much of the world.

Today we take everything that we want from the earth, and in most areas, we leave a barren landscape behind. We don't care what we leave for our children. We dump radioactive waste into the oceans, atmosphere, and underground. Worst here we keep creating more. We still dump our garbage everywhere. It affects the ocean currents, kills untold numbers of fish, and yes, it affects our climate. We still strip our rain forests. Believe it or not, this has significant impact on our climate.

There are well over six billion people on this earth. If God tarries, and man continues on his current path, what will the earth look like in twenty years?

Ask Him, that is what a person of genuine faith is required to do.
AGAIN- we are not to lean on our own understanding, but in ALL our ways, acknowledge Him and He will make straight our path.
He is completing His plan to redeem this world, his creation and it's created beings back to Him.

a great invention is the heat pump, if it works.
when it doesnt, its a bit useless lol

I wish it was working the other day when we had the cold snap, cos now I have a cold. And cold teachers and cold students are not happy, and its harder to learn in a cold environment.

In the olden days the first thing teachers would do is light the stove/boiler in the classroom in winter because without it the room would bean ice box. It would probably be even colder INSIDE than out.

I never caught a cold working outside all day in the winter cold and wet gardening as I have done in school working inside.

That was a terrible situation I read in a book called 'The worst hard time'. So ignorant. The land should have been left for grazing as the Native americans had looked after it for centuries.

they are only toxic if you put toxic substance in them like...plastic which when heated releases toxic chemicals..thats why some of them try and say they are bAPA free or what not.

Its more the radiation that might be damaging, but that goes for any electrical device if theres too much exposure to them.

Otherwise they are pretty good at heating up food (especially if its already cooked) but just need to use them properly.

if the prariries were left for grazing instead of being plowed up, you would be eating bison burgers instead of mcdonalds and cornflakes. Probably better for you lol

shoes are a very good invention but some are a travesty like high heel shoes. I mean how are you supposed to even walk in them.

I get you wanna be taller, but nobody is fooled.
