OUR STANCE ON TODAY'S ISSUES - Environmentalism

In the Bible, it tells how Father God gave the world He created to man to rule over and care for. Man has taken the first part of that commandment very seriously, for he has attempted to rule over and use every part of this planet. However, with that commandment of rule, there was also another part. That of caring for the place that is ruled over. This is something that man has done a very poor job of. In attempting to force his will on the planet, man has literally destroyed many parts of this beautiful, perfect gift that Father God gave him, and, in doing so, he has managed to destroy that part of the Divine Being that his own physical body derives from.

            Since we, as Children of Father God and Mother Earth, believe that the Earth is a part of the Divine Being that created us and all the universe, we believe in and support the preservation of all life on our planet. We, therefore, support the environmental movements that have become so prevalent in our society in recent years. If we are to honor the Creator correctly, then we must learn to protect and care for, as well as rule over, the place we live.
