According to the "Christian"Post:
WASHINGTON – Evangelical leaders from several prominent organizations
gathered on Capitol Hill Tuesday to pray, repent and sing about creation
care.
“Anything that hurts people the Church should be standing up and saying
stop, the line is drawn here,” said Garza, who is also the senior pastor at
Third Day Worship Center in Elk Grove, Calif. “I will not allow for anyone to
steal what is properly the Church’s issue – caring for our people, caring for
our planet, caring for what God made. It is our issue. Everyone can jump on the
bandwagon if they want to, but it is our issue.”
Falling for the Environmentalism which is pagan in its roots, under any label, especially "Creation" is still liberal nonsense. Its the tactic of the enemy to try and get Christians off focus of what really matters: glorifying the Sovereing King, proclaiming The Gospel of Jesus Christ, lost souls, and the maturity of true believers.
There's not one command in all of Scripture that tells us to "go green". Environmentalism is not the goal, purpose, or focus of God's local churches. It IS the purpose of the liberally-minded, man-centered, pagan-friendly Post-Modern "Christians" that want to be considered "good" and in line with the world's focus. They want to be accepted by the world.
The world can have them.
They are trying to earn spirituality by "good" works instead of being biblically sound in doctrine and practice. And just who defines what is acceptable in regard to environmentalism?
Give men Christians who love Christ Jesus and His Word, not the cares of this world. Give men Christians who are true soldiers of Christ, not Environmental Warriors.
What would've happened had these NAE (just what do they mean by "Evanglical" anyway?)folks spent their time and money on caring for Christians within their own flocks and missionaries their own churches support, instead of jetting to DC and parading around how eco-friendly ----sorry, Creation-friendly--they are?
2Ti 2:3 Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him.
Mat 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
I dare say many of these NAE members likely subscribe to some degree of Evolution and psychology anyway, not to mention Romanism. So they need to accept and believe the doctrines of Scripture before they start telling everyone how "their issue" is the Environmental one (what's with the turf war of environmentalism? That's actually immature). What happened to the supremacy of Christ?
1Co 2:2 For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
And no, I'm not saying trash the planet. I'm saying that environmentalism is in its roots pagan and ungodl, and its focus is not on Christ Jesus. I'm saying its not the goal of the local church nor the Christian. Pick up your trash. Recycle if you like. But making environmentalism a point of pride at the cost of Christ Alone, is wrong wrong wrong.
