Carbon-phobia? Not me ~ By Joseph Farah

Joseph writes a wonderful column that tells us not to be afraid of our "carbon footprint," but instead, fear the "sin footprint."

So, remember, carbon-phobia will get you nowhere. But we all need to have a healthy fear of sin. That's the ultimate pollutant in this world. It's the ultimate toxin. It's the ultimate threat to your life and the lives of everyone else on planet Earth.

Are you afraid of carbon?

Do you worry about the size of your "carbon footprint"?

Do you lie awake at night worried about how carbon dioxide might destroy the planet?

I don't.

And I'm simply amazed that so many otherwise intelligent people have been taken in by one of the biggest hoaxes in the history of the world – the notion that a naturally occurring gas, one absolutely vital to life on planet Earth, is being produced by man's activities at such levels that it threatens apocalyptic catastrophe.

It's not true.

There's no evidence to support the hysteria.

It's all a scam put forward by powerful people who want more control over your life and the lives of others.

It's the worst kind of superstitious nonsense. Yet, people believe it. They believe it because "scientists" say it. They believe it because they're taught to believe it in school and in college. They believe it because the media tell them to believe it. They believe it because Madison Avenue tells them to believe it. And, of course, they believe it because governments all over the world promote it because it empowers them.

Nevertheless, I tell you there is nothing to worry about with regard to your "carbon footprint."

God is not going to punish you or the world's population because of a "carbon footprint."

He made the world from nothing by breathing it into existence – not by assembling or rearranging atoms and molecules, but by creating all of them from nothing.

God doesn't care about "carbon footprints."

God cares about sin footprints.

He didn't tell us not to exhale.

He didn't tell us not to populate the planet, He told us to be abundant and multiply.

He never hinted we have anything to worry about with regard to our use of natural resources. He made a great big planet and gave us a few key rules to live by. He told us if we followed those rules, we would have a longer and better life.

And knowing that we would not be able to keep those few simple rules, He even gave His only begotten Son as a sacrifice for those trespasses, so that we would have the chance to live eternally with Him.

Maybe that sounds like a fairy tale to some of you.

I've got news for you. That's reality. "Global warming" is not. Man-made catastrophic climate change is the myth.

Your "carbon footprint" means nothing to God.

It's your sin footprint that counts.

Ten Reasons to Celebrate on Resurrection Sunday

Ten Reasons to Celebrate On Easter

By Bill Shuler
Pastor, Capital Life Church

1. The faith of multiplied millions throughout history rises and falls on an empty tomb.

2. Many have tried, but no one has ever been able to disprove the Resurrection.

3. According to Sports Illustrated, the greatest comeback of all time was Jesus of Nazareth in 33 A.D.

4. Jesus’ disciples were willing to be beaten, imprisoned, and executed for what they witnessed.

5. Jesus fulfilled every Old Testament prophecy foretelling the Resurrection.

6. After His crucifixion and death, the risen Christ made numerous appearances, over 40 days, to over 500 people.

7. The amount of evidence, and the number of witnesses, for the Resurrection would be a slam dunk in a court of law.

8. The Resurrection proves that truth will never be subservient to death.

9. The Resurrection told believers that God brings forth life, not mere rules and regulations.

10. Jesus said, because I live, you will live also.

The true meaning of Easter must never be lost amidst painted eggs and rabbits. Mankind was forever changed, when the angel proclaimed, “He is not here, because He is risen.” It has been said that if the Resurrection is false, the earth has no hope. But if the Resurrection is true, it represents the earth’s only hope.

Following the post were of course the forum comments. There was one that I really liked, written by a user going by the name, "ptemple2k":

Ten very good reasons for Easter indeed! You may scoff and may not believe but here is the dilemma. If I am wrong I have nothing to loose; I’ve lived my faith and trusted my God and Savior. But if you are wrong you will find eternity in a very ugly place.

I know the rest of the story; it began with the Resurrection and will see completion with fulfillment of the Book of Revelation. The battle has already been won — Christ has defeated the devil but the spiritual warfare is yet to be completed until Christ’s return.

Times are ugly now but will become more severe with no relief in site.

Pray for those who serve to protect our freedoms and safety; pray for those held captive by terrorists.

Pray that our nation return to One Nation under God and In God We Trust. If we do not do this God’s ears may fall silent as He allows men to succumb to their deeds.
