Global Warming: An Inconvenient Truth, Or A Convenient Half-truth?

Global Warming: An Inconvenient Truth? Or a Convenient Half-Truth? by Craig Peters

Introduction Global warming has become a worldwide, political issue: Many politicians, scientists, and environmentalists are clamoring for our attention: “Something has to be done!” they insist. This article presents two main objections to their approach: Not only are they in error regarding the cause of global warming, but we believe there is a manipulative and dangerous political agenda behind convincing the world that global warming is being caused by carbon dioxide gases (as is now claimed by so many). But let us be abundantly clear: We are neither saying, nor implying, Mr. Al Gore is intentionally lying about his findings on global warming. (His award-winning documentary about global warming has been titled, “An Inconvenient Truth.”) However, we most heartily disagree with the “science” behind Mr. Gore’s movie. One cannot establish a truly scientific hypothesis while failing to address other facts which are clearly related to the issue. (We further assume Al Gore’s motives in opposing global warming are completely pure with no hidden agenda.) While we can only commend the former vice-president for working to leave subsequent generations with the legacy of a clean environment, we also caution: if massive political legislation is used to fight global warming, it will likely be something which improperly moves leaders, legislators, and nations to unjustly affect the lives of millions. This brief study does not argue against the reality of global warming: Something is heating up the Earth! But are the scientists correct regarding their claims as to the source of this warming? We will show the error of those who wish to blame global warming on carbon dioxide emissions, and we will show their fallacies stem from not knowing, or acknowledging, the truth of the matter as it is revealed in the Scriptures. When all the facts are considered, it is difficult not to wonder: “Is the real truth being intentionally withheld by at least some of these scientists?” And if this is the case, one further wonders, “Why is this so?” Why is the Global Warming Gospel picking up such great momentum? And is this occurring out of: Fear? Concern? Political Intrigue? Diabolical Design? Or all of these things in concert? * * * * * * * The Biblical Flood and the Ice Epoch “The Biblical Flood and the Ice Epoch,” by Donald W. Patten, is a book of profound scope and magnitude. Patten’s scientific treatment of the Flood is an absolutely stunning account of the overwhelming power displayed when the Almighty’s fearsome wrath resulted in the cataclysmic upheavals which He used to destroy the lawless from the Earth in those days. Mr. Patten’s discussion of the cause of the Flood—as well as the colossal, destructive cataclysms which accompanied it—is a sobering discourse which leaves readers absolutely awestruck. From all evidence, there was an incredible influx of cosmic ice which fell on our planet at that time; as this ice descended from outer space, it largely gravitated to the poles. The extreme subzero temperatures1 of the ice then mixed with the extreme heat of the magma being pulled from the Earth’s core by the 1

orbiting heavenly body. This was a small planet which had been caught in our Earth’s gravitational pull. As a result, extremely hot air began clashing with extremely cold air, creating immense temperature contrasts the world has never seen since! Huge thunderstorms were soon in the works: The floodgates of heaven were suddenly opened, and the fountains of the deep were broken up. Water came upon the Earth from above as well as from below, and this was the primary agent of wrath at that time. The Sun is Warming Up: Solar Radiation is Now Warming the Temperature on Many Planets Since the days of the Flood, the Earth has been gradually warming, slowly returning to its originally tropical temperatures. No one can argue with the present-day occurrence of melting polar caps and retreating glaciers. Still, this writer believes that all “science” is not truly science until it finds its answers in the Most High, the Creator of All. And that explains much of our disagreement with the Global Warming Gospel: “Greenhouse gases” might be a contributing factor to the warming of the Earth, but why do the environmentalists never mention the global warming on Jupiter? That is correct: The planet Jupiter is also showing a rise in average surface temperature. Since the warming of other planets cannot be blamed on “greenhouse gases” from carbon dioxide, the global warming group would rather we folks not know about all that! But the fact is: Many of the planets in our solar system are now warming up, and this is traceable back to one, common cause: the Sun! It is an established, scientific fact that the Sun has shown heightened activity and that its 11-year solar cycles are no longer significantly waning in power before the next cycle begins. This means the Sun’s energy/radiation is, by and large, only on the increase. We are now beginning a new solar cycle which is set to peak in 2011-2012. As the Sun’s output of electromagnetic activity continues to surge, and as its number of CMEs2 increase in size and intensity, a number of the planets in our solar system are heating up; they are showing signs of increasing temperatures and atmospheric upheavals. This is all due to the activity spawned by the Sun’s growing infrared and electromagnetic energy. Further, while unrecognized, or more likely, while unacknowledged, these ionic, electromagnetic forces radiating from the Sun are acting upon the magnetized magma of the Earth’s core. Because the magma is being pulled upward, the Earth is warming up from the inside out. And this is where those who study global warming are standing in stark error: They are failing to study (or to openly admit) the heightened electromagnetic activity in the Sun and the effects which this is having on the inner core of our planet. Bible prophecy shows these intense electromagnetic surges in the Sun will soon cause magma/lava to erupt forth from the Earth’s crust in proportions sufficient to destroy cities and, quite likely, even entire nations. Very recently, earthquake activity occurred during a period in which strong cosmic forces from the Sun were striking the Earth. This, we believe, was a cosmically-generated earthquake—a quake caused by the Earth’s magma surging upward in response to electromagnetic energy from the Sun. The changes now taking place in the Sun were prophesied,3 and hwhy warns they will result in “pillars of smoke”4 as a 2 3 4

multiplicity of volcanoes and massive, magma-driven earthquakes become commonplace across the globe, ripping open the ground, destroying nations,5 and blackening the skies in cataclysmic ways never before seen by modern man. In the days of Noah, the wrath of hwhy was poured out on the world as water came from above and below to destroy the Earth.6 In these Last Days, we are warned that fire will be the agent of His wrath as it comes from above and below to destroy those who violate His Law:7 1 Behold, hwhy makes the earth empty, and makes it waste, and turns it upside down,8 and scatters abroad the inhabitants thereof … 3 The earth will be utterly emptied, and utterly laid waste, for hwhy has spoken this word. 4 The earth mourns and fades away, the world languishes and fades away, the haughty people of the earth will languish. 5 The earth also is defiled under its inhabitants; because they have transgressed the Laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore, the curse has devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are found guilty: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. Isaiah 24:1-6 9 The current increase in solar activity is not only something which will play a major role in worldwide, apocalyptic cataclysms, but this intense heat from the Sun (now only just beginning) is something which has long been prophesied to occur. For centuries, the Hebrew prophets have warned that the Sun’s heat will intensify to a level which can only be described as “apocalyptic.” As this is now starting to occur, we are witnessing the incipient stages of what will soon become an immense apocalypse: And the fourth poured out his bowl upon the Sun; and it was given to it to burn men with fire. Revelation 16:8 The days are not long hence that hwhy will destroy the Earth and cleanse it by fire.10 This is the same burning indignation we see prophesied by the apostles.11 But this fiery wrath was not a new concept even in the days of eswhy and His apostles. For we see this great, burning indignation predicted well over 2000 years ago by the prophets of hwhy:12 Upon the wicked He will rain snares— Fire, and brimstone, and a scorching wind will be the portion of their cup. Psalm 11:6 hwhy also spoke of the ongoing availability of the Sun to bring forth His wrath on the disobedient: While looking back at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, He ultimately spoke of the Day when the Sun’s intense heat would be invoked to completely destroy the unrepentant from off the face of the entire Earth.13 This will be the Ultimate Day of hwhy spoken of by the Almighty through the prophet Malachi: 5

Isaiah 2:10-21, Haggai 2:6-7, Hebrews 12:26-29, Revelation 6:12-17, 16:17-20 Genesis 7:11 7 Isaiah 24:3-6, 2Peter 3:9-12, Revelation 16:8-9. hwhy is set to “destroy those who destroy the earth.” Revelation 11:18 8 (i.e., immense earthquakes) 9 See also Isaiah 66:15-16 10 Isaiah 24:23, 30:26-27, Micah 4:7 11 2Thessalonians 1:7-8, 2Peter 3:10-12, Revelation 19:15 12 Also see: Psalm 21:8-9, Joel 2:30, Nahum 1:5, Zephaniah 1:18, 3:8. 13 Job 38:12-13 6

For behold, the day comes that will burn as an oven; and all the proud, yes, and all that do wickedly, will be stubble: and the day that comes will burn them up, says hwhy of hosts, that it will leave them neither root nor branch. Malachi 4:1 Since our world is about to be judged and cleansed by fire, anyone with spiritual common sense, should be contemplating how to best prepare the heart and the mind: 10 But the Day of hwhy will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise,14 and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 11 Seeing that these things are, thus, all to be dissolved, what manner of persons should you be in set apart living and reverence, 12 looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the Day of Elohim, by reason of which the heavens – being on fire – will be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? 2Peter 3:10-12 The Earth has never been cleansed by fire in a manner comparable to the cleansing by water which occurred globally during the Flood; but this fiery judgment was prophesied and it is now about to occur: “Global warming” is only the beginning of the end. Judgment is Now Looming Large on the Horizon eswhy the Messiah indicated the End Time destruction is something which all mankind will see and acknowledge, yet with faithless fear: And there will be signs in the Sun, and in the Moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, in bewilderment at the roaring of the sea and the waves; men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven will be shaken. Luke 21:2526 The reality of global warming should provide the believer with sobering, tangible evidence that Pending Judgment now looms large on the horizon. The Day of hwhy is the Day of His Wrath, and it will be a period of time in which the Sun is used to destroy the lawless and unrepentant out of the Earth.15 It is the time period in which hwhy will arise to put an end to the flagrant, worldwide violation of His Torah.16 This is why the judgments from hwhy on high shall be so devastating, so severe, so widespread, and so unrelenting: A Righteous Creator will only allow unrighteousness to go unanswered for so long; after which time, He will forever avenge His people and His Land with worldwide, catastrophic upheavals foretold many centuries ago in the Apocalypse. hwhy well knows about the Sun’s current rise in heat and intensity, and as we have seen, He is about to use the Sun and the stars to punish those who have refused to repent of violating His immutable Torah.17 The Sun and the stars will be used by hwhy of Hosts to send forth fire, brimstone,18 and pestilence upon those who have violated His immutable Law. Massive, magma-driven earthquakes and indescribable, destructive tidal waves

The heavens will pass away with a great noise when the Sovereign eswhy rolls up the sky like a scroll. See Hebrews 1:8-12, Revelation 6:12-17. For further thoughts on this matter, see the article “When Heaven is Rolled Up Like a Scroll.” 15 Genesis 19:23-24, Job 38:12-13, Psalm 11:6, Revelation 16:8-9 16 Psalm 119:126, Isaiah 24:5-6 17 Psalm 119:126, Revelation 9:20-21 18 This writer believes the Sun was the agent of wrath which hwhy used to rain fire and brimstone upon the sexually immoral reprobates of Sodom and Gomorrah. See Genesis 19:23-25, Job 38:12-13, Psalm 11:6. 14

will destroy large portions of the Earth, while molten lava from volcanoes19 will be used by hwhy to burn and cleanse great land masses and to further punish the unrepentant. A Few Closing Thoughts We agree with those who say the rise in the Sun’s temperature is not enough to be warming the Earth. However, it is not just the infrared heat of the Sun which is warming the Earth: it is mainly the electromagnetic radiation from our star which is energizing and acting upon the molten core of the Earth. As a result, heat and pressure are increasingly emanating upward from the inner pulsations of the Earth’s magnetized magma. Thus, global warming is occurring from inside of the Earth. And the more this lava surges upward from the Earth’s core, the more earthquakes, volcanoes,20 and tidal waves we will see. The Sun’s electromagnetic activity is also affecting other planets in a similar way, and we suspect science will show this electromagnetic radiation is especially making changes in those celestial bodies whose cores consist of magnetized magma. And we are warned magma must have a significant part in the End Time judgments since it is said the Earth will be burned with fire. If you are not a believer in eswhy, we pray you will continue to seek and to study, but most of all, that you will repent and consistently pray to hwhy for spiritual vision and guidance. Read the Evangel of John21 and learn more of the One who died so that you might live an abundant life of love, joy, and peace. The Devouring Fire is coming, and there is only one way to prepare; we see this from another text in Isaiah: 14 The sinners in Tziyon are afraid; fearfulness has surprised the hypocrites. Who among us will dwell with the Devouring Fire?22 Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? 15 He that walks righteously, and speaks uprightly; he that despises the gain of oppression, that shakes his hands from the taking of bribes, that stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed, and shuts his eyes from seeing evil. 16 He will dwell on high: his place of defense will be the munitions of rocks: bread will be given to him; his waters will be sure. Isaiah 33:14-16 The Messiah of Israel will return as a Lion, and in fiery wrath He will judge those who have nullified the Law of hwhy.23 The terrible judgments prophesied in the Apocalypse may all be understood and summarized with a single Scripture, a text seen in Psalm 119: It is time for hwhy to act, for they have broken Your Torah. Psalm 119:126 hwhy will soon arise in fierce anger to put a permanent end to the immoral outrage against His immutable, age-abiding standards. He will only allow unrighteousness to go unanswered for so long. When He is stirred up to rebuke the world for its lawlessness, His relentless wrath will strike terror in the hearts of mankind, and He will forever destroy the rebellious nations of the earth.24 Yet He will be a refuge to all who call on the Name of hwhy and who put their trust in Him.25 It is only those who fear His Name26 who will be well prepared to see the King of kings when He 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
