WHO IS IN CHARGE OF CLIMATE CHANGE? by steve finnell


Does climate change occur because of God's power or is  man in control of the earth's climate? Is it possible to believe in an omnipotent God and simultaneously believe in man-made climate change? Does man-made carbon dioxide emissions change the climate of the earth? Do men have power equal to God?

Genesis 6:17 Behold I, even I am bringing the flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall perish.(NASB)

Did God cause it to rain for forty days and nights or was it caused by man-made CO2 emissions.

Joshua 10:11 As they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord threw large stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died; there were more who died from hailstones than those whom the sons of Israel killed with the sword.(NASB)

Did man-made carbon dioxide emissions cause the hailstones or was it God in heaven?

Jeremiah 24:10 I will send the sword, the famine and pestilence upon them....(NASB)

Did God cause the famine or was it man-made climate change?

Job 37:6 "For to the snow He says, 'Fall on earth, And to the downpour and rain , 'Be strong.'(NASB)

Does man cause and control the rain and snow by their CO2 emissions or is it under God's control?

Job 37:10 "From the breath of God ice is made, And the expanse of water is frozen.(NASB)

Does God control the climate or does man-made carbon dioxide emissions control the weather?

Psalm 147:7-8 Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; Sing praises to our God on the lyre, 8 Who covers the heavens with clouds, Who provides rain for the earth, Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.(NASB)

Does God send the rain or can man control the rain by adjusting the amount of CO2 emissions?

The question is can men believe in an all powerful God and also believe that men are capable of effecting climate change.

God created climate and only He can change it.

Men cannot cause it to rain. Men cannot cause the sun to shine. Men cannot cause it to snow. Men cannot cause the earth to warm nor can they cause it to cool. Men cannot cause droughts, tornadoes, hurricanes nor can men cause fair weather.
