GUEST: DAVID LEGATES, Climatologist and Director of Research and Education, Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation

When God created Adam and Eve, he gave them a dominion mandate: “God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth” (Genesis 1:28).

The dictionary defines a steward as “a person who manages another’s property.” God gave man a steward role with His “property”—the earth. But predictably, man rebels against God’s design and worships himself and the earth.

Scripture explains this in Romans 1: “For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures” (Romans 1:21-23).

Did you notice the result of dishonoring God is futility and foolishness? This describes the God-rejecting environmental movement—we’re told cows and crops are bad, using oil and gas is bad, and humans are especially bad because we’re causing “climate change” and thus there needs to be billions less people so the earth can be saved.

Never mind that the “experts” are wrong time and again with their predictions of doom and gloom for the earth. The next storm, the next flood, the next forest fire…well, “it’s man-caused climate change and we must act before it’s too late!”

As our guest David Le Gates, climatologist and Director of Research and Education for the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation, will tell us, the world’s environmental worldview is actually a religion, one that worships the earth and man. He will refute the pervasive junk science that is constantly being foisted on us from scientists, politicians, and the media.

Christians aren’t immune to the propaganda, accepting that “loving neighbor” means believing those who have “exchanged the truth of God for a lie” (Romans 1:25). Why would we believe anyone who rejects the most fundamental truth that God exists and has spoken in His Word?
