[Today's post is by Dr. William M. Curtis III, co-author of Global Warming and the Creator's Plan, newly published by Master Books.]
The raison d’etre for writing the book, Global Warming and the Creator’s Plan, stemmed from the fact that people like Al Gore and others have misrepresented the truth and the real future of this planet as defined in God’s Word.
The Institute for Scientific and Biblical Research was founded for the purpose of advocating a literal historic understanding of the Word of God with emphasis on the book of Genesis. The secular world of the 2oth century has been led by evolutionary scientists, atheists, and unbiblical church leaders into a world of falsehoods, false prophets, poor science, evil and environmental panic that Scripture pictures as indicative of “The Last Days.” Before we are all consumed in this scenario, we felt it would be consistent with our calling to write this book when global warming became a media myth. God’s plan for this earth never involved its continual state under the curse of Genesis 3. We are to treat our environment with Christian responsibility, but not lose sight of the fact that God is calling out His family for a new earth whose Builder and Maker is God. With Jay Auxt coming to our board and joining the fight to get the truth out on global warming, we decided in 2006 to co-author the book.
[Editor's note: As Christians, we are certainly responsible for being good stewards of God's creation. The purpose of this book is not to encourage shirking our responsibilities, but to provide the information necessary to assist Christians in making environmental decisions in a sound and responsible manner.]
