10-25-21 Climate and Prophecy

Climate and Prophecy - By Mark A. Becker - https://www.raptureready.com/2021/10/07/climate-and-prophecy-by-mark-a-becker/ Introduction In late June, it was hot where I live in the Pacific Northwest, along with much of western North America; this was the result of what’s known as a heat dome. For a purely scientific explanation of this event without the drivel from climate alarmists, please read Meteorologist Chuck Wiese’s elucidation. There’s also a drought going on. No surprise here as heat generates drought – and the media and politicians have been reminding us every chance they get, as this is what they do. Is this heat something new? No. It’s called summer, and summer generally tends to be pretty hot every time it comes around. Droughts are nothing new, either. I’ve been through a few of them, and I’m sure you have too – or have at least read about them happening at different places around the earth at different times. As Christians, we shouldn’t be startled by these things, as we live in a fallen world. In this article, I wanted to make a possible correlation between weather events and prophecy. In all honesty, I admit that, because I’ve been hearing climate alarmism my entire life, I tend to be very skeptical and cynical of so-called “climate change.” I, personally, am not seeing anything unusual in regard to weather patterns in my short time on earth, but this doesn’t negate the possibility that something may be happening. Most Bible-believing Christians would agree, though, that we are definitely living in the last of the last days, so weather extremes shouldn’t be a surprise if something is, in fact, happening, given the scope of prophetic disclosure in the Word of God. But, first, I’m compelled to offer somewhat of a tirade against what I see as an outright abomination of common sense and logic. Whether or not something out of the ordinary is happening with our weather systems is debatable, but how the world gets there is foolishness and doesn’t align with the Word of God. “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease” (Genesis 8:22). Science? Science ceases to be science when politics enters the fray – it always does. Science, like all aspects of life in our fallen world, is subject to human error (known or unknown) and, like other human institutions, to being bought-off by the powers that be and their dark agendas. The love of money is the root of all evil (1 Timothy 6:10), and “science” is not immune. Covid and “climate change” are two excellent examples of this truth, and the objective is always fear, power, and control. And – as we have learned from current events – science never gets anything wrong, right?!?! The volume of “experts” paraded around in media circles is quite overwhelming, and, time and time again, they were not only shown to have gotten the science wrong but, in many other instances, they were found to be speaking outright lies. How soon until these “experts” become known for what they are – political hacks and useful idiots? As Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels famously said: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” Add to this statement, “loud enough,” and you have accurately defined the globalist elite’s propaganda efforts on all fronts. “But the weather-related disasters are so much more frequent and intense than they were in the past!” So says the environmental cabal and their faithful subjects. But is this true? Increasing Frequency of Reporting What is more intense and frequent is the incessant reporting on these events. Even just 40 years ago, a natural disaster might be reported on the nightly news, have a story or two in the newspapers with a couple of photographs, and then the story would fade away. Today, every weather-related disaster is reported by hundreds – if not thousands – of news outlets and reporters with unique personal story after personal story of what any particular disaster’s effect had on the local population. To say this is overkill would be an understatement, at least in comparison to past reporting. And this process is repeated time and time again with every weather-related disaster or event that may come about anywhere in the world. Compounded upon all of this is that every article and report spews out the religious “climate change” mantra, and the indoctrination is nearly complete — not to mention what is happening in our educational institutions. These weather-related disasters, their frequency, and their intensity is nothing new. What is new is that we have many more people on the planet. With population growth comes an increase in not only multiple reports of said disasters but in the number of people affected, merely because there are more people to be affected. And consider satellites that monitor the entire globe; they capture weather-related events the general public would never have been privy to in the past because nobody would have known the disaster had even occurred – a fairly recent technological advancement, to be sure. When all of this is considered, with a heavy emphasis on mass reporting and hyped hysteria by the media of these weather-related disasters, there’s the illusion that these events are intensifying. We do well to remember that: “… the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain” (1 Corinthians 3:19-20). The ‘Man-Made’ Climate Hysteria The idea that man’s living and interacting in our world is emitting life-destroying “carbon” and is plummeting our planet into oblivion is the hoax of our time. From the cars we drive, the planes we fly, the materials we produce and consume, and everything in between – and don’t forget cattle flatulence – the globalist elite have cemented into the public’s consciousness that they are responsible for destroying the earth. This is something that mankind has never thought possible – nor is possible – that just by living, men, women, and children are destroying our planet. This is nonsense, and the elite know it. But they have a plan, and they will achieve that plan at all costs. Speaking of their plan and the costs: A brand new credit card is coming into the market that tracks your “carbon footprint” by your purchases, and when you’ve reached your CO2 emission limit, they will deny any further purchases! It’s known as the Mastercard/Barclays Doconomy Climate Fintech card. And Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum (WEF) have excitedly endorsed it. Of course, this is being presented as an “educational effort,” so it will never become mandatory, right?!?! Enjoy! [Note: Yes, as stewards of God’s creation, we are to take as much care of our resources, along with animal and plant life, as we can. But when it comes to secular, evolutionary ideals, man has turned our planet and ecosystems into a living, breathing entity and embarked on a modern-day, paganistic, Gaia-worshiping religious system, where man is the problem and nature is elevated to godhood (Romans 1:25).] When it comes to the “man-made” climate hoax, there can be no denying its existence when one just looks back on the past century. When I was a kid in the 1970s, the scare-tactic claim of the day was that we were about to enter into a little Ice Age –Time Magazine: Another Ice Age? and Newsweek: The Cooling World. Well, that didn’t work! So, they needed something else. Out pops Al Gore and his ironically titled An Inconvenient Truth, and they’re off and running again – this time in the other direction with something called “Global Warming.” This didn’t work either as, laughably, almost every time the climate cabal got together to discuss how they could “combat the weather” (just the thought of this claim brings my mind to laughter), temperatures at their meeting sites were trending below average and, in some cases, bitterly cold. It sure seemed that God was having good chuckle at their expense! But, then, they had an epiphany: Let’s call it “Climate Change,” and we can have it both ways; we can claim catastrophe when it’s cold and when it’s hot! This wasn’t radical enough for them, though, as some of the people – those with half a brain, anyway – were still rejecting their ridiculous claims. They needed peer pressure to help achieve their diabolical aspirations along with fearful slogans. So, they came up with new terms such as “Climate Crisis,” “Climate Emergency,” and “Climate Chaos.” In addition, they chose to belittle those who wouldn’t conform to their fanatical assertions by calling them “climate deniers” (as if there’s anyone who denies climate) and “science deniers” (a term they also lob at their perceived enemies with Covid and those who don’t conform to their mandates) in an attempt to push them into complying with all of their radical demands for a global response to this “crisis of all crises.” The climate alarmists have proclaimed that “climate change” has been the catalyst to all kinds of problems in our world. Everything from floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, wildfires, and any other weather-related natural disaster known to man. But it doesn’t stop there! Did you know that the “climate crisis” is also responsible for poverty, wars, violence, crime, building collapses, refugees, and a host of other social ills and problems that plague mankind and the earth? “It’s true!” So say the fear-mongers, apparently totally ignorant that all of these ills have plagued the world since the fall of man. Where was their “climate emergency” in the past? Where was their “carbon” problem in ancient history? No, this is an entirely new “man-made” phenomenon brought to you exclusively from the globalist “Masters of the Universe,” courtesy of a Satanic New World Order. The One World Religion is also using “climate change” to unite the world’s religions that will be dominant until the midway point of the Tribulation, just prior to the Abomination of Desolation and the institution of Antichrist worship and economic control of The Mark of The Beast System. “All hands on deck,” as they say. Now, all we hear and see is an absolute uprising from the corporate media elite, educational elite, political elite, world governments, globalists, the UN, and the sheeple that worship at the altar in their climate temples, screaming for something to be done when any temperature sets a record – hot or cold – anywhere and at any time. Funny how records are meant to be broken for absolutely everything – but not for temperatures! Oh, no! We can’t have that!! Here’s an interesting thought: Why is it that the globalist elite – as they shout about the planet’s demise from “man-made climate change” – buy up and live on beachfront properties that should, according to their own dire predictions, be underwater today? Yeah, they truly believe the sewage spewing from their hypocritical mouths. For a rational, creation science perspective of “climate change,” I recommend The Climate Change Conflict: Keeping Cool over Global Warming by Dr. Jake Hebert. The Unnatural Ways of the ‘Environmental Naturalist’ Consider the hypocrisy of the “environmental naturalist” and the insanity of their ways: Neglecting their gods of “natural selection” and “survival of the fittest,” they continually attempt to supersede these gods by protecting endangered species. Why? Aren’t they interfering with nature’s onward evolutionary progress? Shouldn’t they be regarded as “heretics” within their Darwinian nature religion? “Mother Nature” is going to get mad! In the name of “climate change,” they are trying to shoot calcium carbonate into the atmosphere to reflect the light of the sun back into space to cool the earth. Do they ever consider that the rays of the sun are life-giving and life-sustaining? Don’t they realize that plant life needs sunlight to grow and to feed animal life? That the sun is the engine of the food chain? Why are they obsessed with “carbon” and their desire to reduce or eliminate it? “Carbon” is code for carbon dioxide, which plants need to survive and – along with the rays of the sun – to thrive for a richer and greener earth. Not to mention that plant life “exhales” oxygen, which, of course, animal and human life need to live – and animal and human life exhale carbon dioxide for plants – a process known as photosynthesis that is essential for all life on the planet. Hmmm? Why do they fear air “pollution” as a life and planet-destroying entity when pollution is jettisoned out of the atmosphere into outer space? Nobody is for air pollution, but let’s look at this subject logically. The only reason we have polluted cities is because those cities are producing air pollution faster than the natural processes for discharging those pollutants out of the earth’s atmospheric ecosystem. Just focus on those heavily polluted cities and regions – limiting their pollution output to below the process of ejection – and you’ve solved the problem. Their obsession with wildfires is rather puzzling, considering that wildfires are nature’s revitalization program for the soils of the earth. Why, as “environmental naturalists,” would they want to interfere with nature’s processes? Their hypocrisy eludes them. With wildfires non-existent in our forests, the soils would eventually lose all nutrients and would yield potential crop and forest outputs null and void. The problem – that they seem totally oblivious to – is that rural communities have been moving farther and farther out into the forest habitats while authorities have, in the process of liberal “environmental” idiocy, neglected proper forest management, which puts those rural communities in extreme danger – often because of “endangered species.” The proper course is forest management – clear-cutting and controlled burns of dead growth, etc. – but thanks to environmental liberal/progressive activism and leadership, these endeavors have been halted, and, consequently, here we are. Where’s the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)? Bureau? Yes. Land management? Hardly! Let’s face it: “Climate Change” is the clarion call of incompetent government – local, state, and federal. If one doesn’t think there is a political agenda for the mismanagement of our forests, I ask that they think this through for themselves and consider the end results for those seeking global control through the fear of so-called “climate emergencies.” Climate ‘Science’ From the debunked hockey-stick graph to falsified and manipulated data at NOAA, the United Nations, and many other agencies, to every single dire prediction never coming to fruition, it should leave the reader as skeptical and as cynical as I am. (Of course, all of this – Surprise! – is “debunked” by liberal “fact-check” organizations, despite the facts — and we know that they would never cover anything up or lie for the powers that be.) The simple truth is that the star in our solar system that earth orbits around has more to do with our world’s weather patterns than all of man’s feeble attempts to explain so-called “climate change” combined. Think James Carville when I say, “It’s the sun, stupid!” People dying from extreme hot and cold weather, fires, and other weather-related natural disasters have been prevalent since the fall of man and will continue until the Lord Jesus Christ comes back to earth to set up His Millennial Kingdom. Until then, this is mankind’s lot in life, and no amount of hyperbole, generated fear, or attempt to remedy these age-long conditions will have any bearing on the fatalities generated from these calamities. Beware, Saint, as this repeated cycle will continue despite the facts to the contrary. The winter is slowly coming upon us, and you can be sure the climate alarmists will be screaming about it being too cold outside! Never missing an opportunity, the incessant propaganda has already begun. Then, they’ll be at it again the following summer with it being too hot and with demands that, “We’ve got to do something about this!!” This is what they do, as they are as predictable as the changing seasons. But don’t fear them; fear God. Thank you for allowing me the time to vent my accumulated lifelong frustrations on this exasperating topic – it’s been rather therapeutic for me. With all of this said, there is always the very real possibility that something is taking place regarding the weather. But – if something is happening – it’s not what the climate alarmist globalists think it is. And that’s what the remainder of this article – Climate and Prophecy – is all about. The Creator and His Prophetic Program Never coming into the minds of these climate fanatics is that if something is going on, it just may be the Creator’s will as He sets up His end-time program. According to them, there’s no room for a Creator, and they can’t allow a divine foot in any door. From evolution to climate to morality and more, the world system and its leaders are gods unto themselves and the ultimate judges and dispensers of truth to all their subservient servants. Regardless of their demented and grandiose globalist/totalitarian obsessions, let’s consider other reasons for any perceived climate issues – real or imagined – that the Christian should at least consider in light of our Creator and His Prophetic Program. God’s End-Time Preparation God, or God allowing Satan and/or man’s governments and militaries to manipulate weather patterns – if this is truly what we are witnessing – could be setting the stage for the end-times, and there’s nothing that can be done to hinder or stop the projecting forward of this divine preparation. Some would agree that God can be orchestrating these events – if they truly are manifesting themselves in this way – but others may ask, “How can Satan or man be intervening in this way?” Satan: We see in Job 1, when all of the sons of God presented themselves to the Lord and Satan was with them, that God allowed Satan to test Job’s righteousness. Among the disasters that the Lord allowed Satan to inflict on Job and his family, some were weather-related: “While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee… While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house: And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee” (Job 1:16, 18-19). (emphasis mine) Satan, when God allows, is quite capable of manipulating the weather. God will also command His righteous angels to control weather patterns, as is noted throughout Revelation, even controlling the winds: “And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree” (Revelation 7:1). And, particularly and most notably, angels will manipulate weather at the end of the Tribulation: “And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory” (Revelation 16:8-9). (emphasis mine) Now this will be real “Global Warming”! Men: The governments and militaries of the world have been zealously trying to manipulate weather patterns for over a hundred years. Most of this time has been spent militarily in an attempt to have an advantage over the enemy. Political leaders and insiders during this same period of time have been attempting to manipulate the masses through climate hysteria in an effort to help usher in their New World Order using so-called “climate science” to fabricate this delusion for globalist ends. This is thoroughly documented in many books — two of my favorites are En Route to Global Occupation and The New World Religion by Gary Kah. Gary was an insider to this worldwide globalist movement, and he presents the reader with documentation, conversations, lectures, and speeches in his impeccably researched books. Whether or not man’s governments and militaries have, indeed, found ways to manipulate weather patterns, for a number of nefarious reasons, may never be known for sure this side of heaven. But rest assured, they have been feverishly trying very hard to do just that. The Tribulation Ramp-Up One could suppose that any perceived climate change going on in today’s world – if true – may be a prelude to the Tribulation soon to come on the world. A Tribulation ramp-up, if you will. But the Word of God is somewhat silent on such a condition leading up to the time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7) in regard to weather and climate, yet it wouldn’t be surprising to see at least a subtle acceleration as the day approaches. Whatever the case may be in regard to weather in our day, climate during the seven-year Tribulation, as revealed in God’s Holy Word, will be strikingly intense on many different levels. But it won’t be because of increased “CO2 emissions” or other “greenhouse gasses” from simple, everyday living of human beings on the earth. It will be the logical outcome of God pouring out His wrath on a God-hating, Christ-rejecting world – in concert with Satan’s wrath and fury aimed squarely at God and man – as well as fallen man’s own rebellion against his Creator as he is guided and influenced by demonic delusion and deception. Let’s be honest here: The Tribulation is going to be the most horrendously wicked and evil time in human history. Famine “And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven” (Luke 21:11). Famine has been a part of man’s historical saga since the fall. Whether war, drought, disease, or God’s personal will – all seen throughout Scripture and recorded history – the causes for famine are quite varied. Nevertheless, we do see famines following the rapture of the church and leading into and through the Tribulation. But whether or not these famines are climate-related is debatable. “And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth” (Revelation 6:7-8). (emphasis mine) During the breaking of the fourth seal by our Lord, the fourth horse and horseman brings famine as a means of death just prior to the beginning of the Tribulation and will certainly be present throughout. Climate could be one of the mitigating factors, but we must consider the first three horses (Revelation 6:2-6) that give us insight into how this famine came to be. In summary, the first horse – the white horse – brings the Antichrist on the scene; the second horse – the red horse – brings violence and war upon the earth; and the third horse – the black horse – brings economic disaster upon the earth that obviously goes hand-in-hand with famine. The Antichrist: “And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer” (Revelation 6:1-2). Violence and Wars: “And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword” (Revelation 6:3-4). Economic Collapse: “And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine” (Revelation 6:5-6). (emphasis mine) These events, in and of themselves, can wholly be responsible for the famine that comes early in God’s judgment on the world, probably in between the rapture of the church and the beginning of the seven-year Tribulation. While the climate may be in some form of disarray, just considering the first three judgments are more than enough to bring famine upon the earth, even devoid of any weather-related complications. Finally, there will be drought administered by the Two Witnesses during the first three and one-half years of the Tribulation; but again, this will be during the Tribulation: “These [Two Witnesses] have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will” (Revelation 11:6). So, in regard to the lead-up to the end-times in our day and age and so-called “climate change,” there really is only one reasonable possibility – other than a ramp-up leading into the Tribulation – and it doesn’t bode well, if true: JUDGMENT! Judgment Wouldn’t we, as Christians, admit that the United States – and the world for that matter – is ripe for God’s judgment? Wouldn’t we expect to see weather-related catastrophes? As is well documented in William Koenig’s Eye to Eye, every time the United States has tried to divide Israel or flat-out persecute and alienate Israel, America has paid a heavy price. This isn’t to say that there are more natural disasters – this is to say that the weather-related natural disasters are divinely timed catastrophes. In addition to Israel, the immorality, Godlessness, and overall hate for anything Christian and good in the eyes of a Holy God is accelerating at unprecedented speed throughout the United States and the world. In Scripture, God declares: “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!” (Isaiah 5:2-21). How can one read this warning from our Lord and not see the United States today? Yes, we are worthy – and past ripe – for a complete and final judgment on our once God-fearing nation. God’s patience has run its course. This nation and the rest of the world have ignored the signs and warnings from God; and, in the process, the United States and the nations of the world have given their Creator the proverbial middle-finger and thumbed their nose at the Master of the Universe. When it comes to weather, God has used this tool in His arsenal before. Here’s just one of many examples: “And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord. And also I have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered” (Amos 4:6-7). In light of how God judged other nations and cities of the past, are we really to believe we would be exempt from the same fate? No. So we should expect weather-related disasters to increase in frequency and intensity if, in fact, we are being judged. Is it because of men and women living and working on the planet that these weather-related judgments were to occur? Absolutely not! For this, too, would be rejecting our Creator and His dominion mandate to “be fruitful and multiply” (Genesis 1:28 & Genesis 9:7). This is just one more reason why the climate alarmists are guilty of revolting against God – they are attributing what could be God’s judgment on rebellious nations to men and women obediently fulfilling God’s commandment. The end result of all of this in regard to Climate and Prophecy is that there really isn’t anything in Scripture to signify any climate emergency on planet Earth until the Tribulation (unless, of course, we are under judgment – which is not only possible but could very well be the case. Even under judgment, though, any weather-related problems are not caused by people just living their lives on earth as the globalist cabal would have you to believe). These facts should lead the believer to understand that climate alarmists and the globalist elite who are pushing this narrative have an ulterior and nefarious intent of usurping power through fear of the weather, of all things, in their ambition for a Great Reset into a New World Order. Christian Response As Christians, we should be aware of the globalists’ agenda and schemes, and we should not be frightened by them. We have been warned in the Word of God of those things which are coming upon the world, and we should fear God and not man. Climate is always changing and always has since the worldwide global flood of Noah’s day approximately 4,300-4,500 years ago. The one and only ice age began right after the flood, and climate has shifted on a global scale ever since. Regions that were once arid have become fertile. Other regions that were once fertile have become arid. This is the way of nature in our fallen world until our Lord comes back and sets things right once again. Weather-related disasters come and go, and there’s nothing man can do to halt this — try as he might. I’ve been listening to the constant drum-beat of climate fanaticism and irrational fear of the weather my entire life, and I’ve got to tell you that, at times, I get quite weary of it all. But I think that’s the point. They want to wear everybody down by their constant chorus of alarmism while badgering and belittling everyone who doesn’t agree with them until society – one by one – gives up and ends up going along with their foolishness just to get some semblance of peace. But, please, don’t give in to their unfounded hype. If need be, just ignore them. Or, better yet, pray for them! Their fear of the weather is irrational and illogical. We should be encouraging them to fear God and their eternal destiny apart from Jesus Christ. I can’t help but think of the irony that virtually everyone who takes The Mark of The Beast and survives until the end of the Tribulation – those that will experience the fourth vial the angel will pour out upon the sun and scorch men with fire and heat – will be the same people who were screaming “man-made Global Warming” before the rapture of the church. What irony, indeed! Again, here’s the passage of Scripture: “And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory” (Revelation 16:8-9). (emphasis mine) If you are a believer in Jesus Christ and are apt to believe in a “man-made climate emergency” and fear the so-called consequences, then I have a question for you: “Why are you worried about the weather at all, Saint? Isn’t God still on His throne?” I’m sure that as a good Christian, you are doing your best to be environmentally conscious and doing all in your power not to pollute and destroy the planet just like every God-fearing man and woman before you. Did God ever suggest that by honoring His mandate to be fruitful and multiply on the earth and that by living and interacting with nature and the world that you might be responsible for affecting the weather? No. No, He did not. Don’t let your heart be troubled, beloved child of God. You’re doing just fine, and you’re not responsible for what the climate alarmists are charging you with. As a matter of fact, nothing out of the ordinary may be happening at all. But if it is, it has nothing to do with your living on this planet; it has to do with God’s will and in setting up His prophetic program for the last days and/or judgment on a God-hating and Christ-rejecting world. So, forget the weather. Don’t get side-tracked, and stay focused on God’s commandment to love Him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself. And, just as importantly, seek to fulfill The Great Commission and lead others to Jesus and Jesus to others. This is the sum of the matter. May the Lord shower you with His love, grace, mercy, and shalom as you seek to grow His Kingdom by sharing the gospel of Christ with a lost, desperate, and dying world.
