This is a thought provoking and challenging message preached by John MacArthur at Grace Community Church, with a completely different perspective on global warming issues, and the way in which Biblical insight views the planet on which we live. I’ll leave you to think these things over for yourself.

Hi John,
I found this to be a very interesting sermon. I suppose the publishers of The Green Bible would not be too happy.
The main point which stood out is God is in control.
Hi John
This video is unfortunately too big for me to view (145MB) and will take so long to download – is there a text version of this anywhere?
I came across this link ( http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=92557) and I have for a long time now, really wondered about the Global Warming ‘hooha’. I saw Al Gore’s movie when it came out and I started researching in the Bible and what good solid Bible teachers were saying about it , and no global warming seems to be mentioned at all – certainly not in the way we are presented with it and the way Al Gore and his team are putting it out it as fact. If what this group of scientists are saying, well we have two definite sides to the story.
I obviously don’t know what John MacArthur is saying here, so I cannot comment on it.
As Andy correctly says in his comment, “God is in control”
Bless you
Jess

Hi Jessie,
I just found the same messages on youTube too. The messages are titled “The End of the Universe”, and part one can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIbkNmCNWYQ
You two brothers are simply lovely. Thank you for both links!
The whole Global Warming thing is bad science as well as unbiblical. There are many scientists speaking out against it, with solid evidence to back them up. This is just one of those “politically correct” theories that the liberal media just fall all over.
Who knows, maybe John MacArthur is right and the greatest Greek scholars (Google “Famous Rapture Watchers”), who uniformly said that Rev. 3:10 means PRESERVATION THROUGH, were wrong. But John has a conflict. On the one hand, since he knows that all Christian theology and organized churches before 1830 believed the church would be on earth during the tribulation, he would like to be seen as one who stands with the great Reformers. On the other hand, if you have a warehouse of unsold pretrib rapture material, and if you want to have “security” for your retirement years and hope that the big California quake won’t louse up your plans, you have a decided conflict of interest – right, John? Maybe the Lord will have to help strip off the layers of his seared conscience which have grown for years in order to please his parents and his supporters – who knows? One thing is for sure: pretrib is truly a house of cards and is so fragile that if a person removes just one card from the TOP of the pile, the whole thing can collapse. Which is why pretrib teachers don’t dare to even suggest they could be wrong on even one little subpoint! Don’t you feel sorry for the straitjacket they are in? While you’re mulling all this over, Google “Pretrib Rapture Dishonesty” for a rare behind-the-scenes look at the same 179-year-old fantasy.
