It is true that the earth is in bad shape. Romans 8 even says that creation groans, waiting to be freed of the corruption and pain. God is redeeming earth, and will one day cleanse the planet of its deepest issue—sin.
Sin is the real reason the earth is in shambles, and the environmental movement can do nothing to change that. The emphasis on human effort in "saving the planet" is making humanity its own saviour. But it will take more than human initiatives, legislation, and UN intervention to set creation free. Christ is the only one who can, and will, truly redeem the earth.
While it is true that we should be taking care of the earth as its stewards and occupants, we must also realize that this truth has been twisted and used to bring humanity under papal control. Sustainable development is not really about the planet at all—it's merely another front for a global agenda.
Scripture warns us that things are going to get much worse before they get better. But God didn't send us the prophets so that we would live in resigned fear of the devil's plans.
God gave us prophecy to show us that we have a decision to make: for Him or against Him. If we choose to join the Lord's camp, we can be encouraged knowing that God has never left us, and that these terrible times will end.
As we take a step back and study God's Word, we can see that everything He said would happen is starting to happen. Therefore, we can trust Christ's promise that He will return, defeating Satan and making all things new.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son (Revelation 21:4-7).
