MAN-MADE CLIMATE CHANGE AND GLOBAL WARMING IS A HOAX. THE WORD OF GOD DECLARES IT.
"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)

WORSE THAN GLOBAL WARMING IS COMING

Man is so arrogant that he actually thinks he can change the climate or warm up the globe to the extent that he will destroy it. Of course mankind does not really believe the Word of God. He discounts it completely. He does not believe in the God of the Bible or else he would conduct his affairs different than he does.
Have you ever noticed that most politicians end their speeches with "God bless you and God bless America"? Isn't that something? He or she is asking for the blessings of God upon a country which does not abide by His Word. They ask for God to bless a country who kills babies, (61 million babies murdered) approves of sodomites, uses His name in vain, drinks booze like water, has kicked Him out of their schools,etc. and is working hard trying to kick Him out of every part of society.
IF AMERICA DOES NOT REPENT OF THE ABOVE, IT IS A DOOMED COUNTRY.
Man is so arrogant that he believes he knows more than God - that he is smarter than God - that he does not need to obey the Word of God. Man's god is not the God of the Bible. Man only uses the Bible, and then only a verse here and there out of context, if he thinks it will help him. And nearly every program man votes into law fails.
Now he is going to pass laws which will mean spending trillions so that he can save the planet. Well, I have news for him. God has reserved this planet for destruction and He is going to destroy it in His own good time. Nothing man does or can do will change it. (II Peter 3:7,10)

THE NEXT BIG EVENT
BORN AGAIN PEOPLE ARE LEAVING
According to I Thess. 4:13-18 (See also I Cor. 15:52-53 and John 14:1-3) the next big event is the coming of the Lord in the air for all born-again people. Not church members, not those who have been baptized, not those who claim they believe in God nor those who say they believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, nor those who go to mass, etc, etc, etc. Only those who have been born- again will be caught up.
The trump of God will sound and only those who are born-again will hear it. The dead in Christ, those who have died who were born-again, will come out of the grave and at the same time those on earth who have been born-again shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord. What a great time that is going to be.

THEN THE TRIBULATION
PERIOD WILL BEGIN
After the catching up of the born-again will be the beginning of the seven year tribulation. At first everything will go well. The trouble makers are gone. In Revelation chapter 6, the Anti-Christ comes on the scene. He comes in peace. The world will accept him as the world ruler. That is what man is working toward now. A one-world government. The new World Order will be ushered in when the Anti-Christ takes over. Peace at last.
However, when we read Revelation 6:4-8 we find war will break out on the earth like has never been in the past. World wide war. Following the war, famine will make the famines of today look like kindergarten stuff. Following the war and famine - DEATH. During this time one-fourth of humanity will die. By the end of the tribulation one-half of humanity will have died.
A third part of trees are burned up and all grass is burned up. The third part of the sea will become blood. A third part of the creatures in the sea die. The water is made bitter, poisoned, and men die because of this. And many other judgments will fall during this time. God is not destroying the earth during this time, He is judging it. It will be destroyed later. Read the entire chapter of Revelation 6.
Panic and terror will be universal. Hail and fire falls from heaven mingled with blood. The sun is smitten affecting light and temperature.
Will mankind know what is happening? You bet he will. The Word of God makes it plain that they will cry for the mountains and rocks to fall on them in order to hide themselves from the "wrath of the Lamb."
There will be multitudes alive on the earth who have heard the Word of God preached in one form or another. Grown children who knew better than God and their parents. Those who have been handed a Gospel tract, but they said no. They were not going to repent of their sins and trust the Blood of Christ to redeem them and take them to heaven.
THEY WILL KNOW WHERE THE JUDGMENTS ARE COMING FROM. In fact, in Revelation 16 verse 21 the Word of God says "and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great." Mankind will know that God is sending judgment but he still won't repent. Revelation 9:20-21 says "And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts."
MAN IS TOTALLY DEPRAVED AND WITHOUT HOPE UNLESS HE IS CHANGED BY THE POWER OF GOD THROUGH THE NEW BIRTH. 2 Cor 5:17 "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
When did you get changed by the power of God and you became a new creature and your old life passed away? Your church membership is not salvation. Being baptized is not salvation. Saying a prayer is not salvation. WHEN WERE YOU BORN AGAIN?
During this time there will be world-wide earthquakes. The earthquakes we have had during 2010 will be kindergarden stuff. Can you imagine the tidal waves that will hit the shores of every nation? Can you imagine the great loss of life and property? Volcanoes will erupt by the hundreds making the sky dark. Rivers will change their course. Highways will be destroyed. The earth will become a shambles.
These judgments will bankrupt every nation in the world. They will not be able to handle it. FEMA will no longer be in existence. Everyone will be on their own. No electric power, no good water, no gas for vehicles, very little food, etc.
Read Revelation chapter 16 where God sends more judgments. No doubt some of these judgments will even overlap each other. How does man respond? Does he repent? No, he blasphemes God. Notice Revelation 16 verse 9: "And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God . . ." And again in verse 11: "And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds."
Men will be covered by sores and there will be no health care. No help. No one to turn to. Again notice Revelation 16:20-21 "And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great."
IF GOD DID NOT SHORTEN THE JUDGMENTS TO JUST A FEW YEARS, ALL OF MANKIND WOULD BE DESTROYED.

IF YOU WILL NOT REPENT NOW
YOU WON'T REPENT LATER
Now is the day of salvation. Now is the time to admit you are a depraved sinner. Now is the time to repent, turn, from your sins and trust the Lord Jesus Christ Who took your place upon the cross in order that you might have eternal life.
He shed His blood in order that you might be washed in it and made acceptable for His coming kingdom. He did His part. The rest is up to you.
You can go on in your sinful way and not repent if you want to, but if you have heard or read the message of salvation, you will have no excuse.
The Bible says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the Glory of God." (Romans 3:23)
In Romans 5:12 the Word of God says: "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned."
The fact that you grow old and die proves you are a sinner. The fact that you do not have to teach children to do wrong proves man is a sinner. It is the nature of man to sin. "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
Romans 5:9 says: "Much more then, BEING NOW JUSTIFIED BY HIS BLOOD, we shall be saved from wrath through him."
The only way you can escape the WRATH OF GOD THAT IS COMING UPON THIS EARTH is to be truly born-again. Your religion, including Baptist religion, won't save you. Religion sends everyone to Hell who fools with it. Your good works won't save you because you would have to be perfect. Living a good life (according to this sinful world's standards) won't save you.
ONLY REPENTANCE AND FAITH IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SUBSTITUTE WILL TAKE YOU TO HEAVEN AND SAVE YOU FROM THE WRATH THAT IS TO COME UPON THIS EARTH AND ETERNITY IN HELL.
FIND YOU A KING JAMES BIBLE-BELIEVING AND BIBLE PREACHING BAPTIST CHURCH WHICH CAN POINT YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION . . .

BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.

GOD IS IN CONTROL NOT MAN
How clearly God's works speak of His power and glory! He made the towering mountains, and He "weighed the mountains in scales" (Isaiah 40:12). Jeremiah says that He causes it to rain, makes the lightning, and brings the wind out of His treasures (Jeremiah 10:13). By God's breath, the "frost is given" (Job 37:10). "The LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet" (Nahum 1:3). The stars in the heaven testify to God's greatness. "He telleth the number of the stars, he calleth them all by their names" (Psalm 147:4). We have only discovered a portion of the vast universe, and yet God is so infinite that He can measure the heavens with His hand (Isaiah 40:12). - THOMAS SMITH, Pastor, Mt. Zion Baptist Church, St. Clair, Missouri
