Christian Ecology Link prayer topic for today

Next Sunday October 4th will be a Climate Change Day of Prayer, supported by Churches Together in Britain & Ireland, when Christians of all denominations will join together to express their concerns over the seriousness and urgency of our global situation and to pray for God’s will to be done during the decisive Copenhagen talks this December. The time of prayer and meditation could be between 12 noon and 6 p.m. and could be combined with a time of fasting. Information, posters and sample magazine inserts can be found at: www.christian-ecology.org.uk/day-of-prayer.htm

Important Lessons from the Bible

Why Jesus came:
"that the world might be saved through him"
John 3:17

Who Jesus is going to use to save the world:
"For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God."
Romans 8:19

Our role on earth:
"The LORD God put the man in the Garden of Eden to take care of it and to look after it."
Genesis 2:15

The Five Pillars of A Christian Theology of Sustainability

1. God is the creator, sustainer and redeemer of creation.

2. Covenantal Stewardship (we have a covenant with God as stewards of the earth).

3. The creation-fall-redemption paradigm (God made a good world; human failure broke the relationships between god, man and creation; Christ provides hope for all creation).

4.Bodily resurrection(we will rise with bodies, not as spirits)

5.New Creation (a new Heaven and new Earth refers to a renewal and an earthing of heaven, not starting over).
