Climate change replacing Gospel at Sunday Service

Proselytizing climate change from the church pulpit

The triumvirate imposing man-made global warming on civil society as the 21st century’s top issue may have started at the United Nations, but it picked up steam with President Barack Obama somewhat, then surrealistically moved on to include the Vatican through Pope-Gone-Activist-Francis-Bergoglio. The climate change movement has long dictated what the masses could eat and wear, what they could drive and where they would live.
They are now dictating to the masses what religion to practice, and their green religion is not Christianity. The hierarchy of the global warming/climate change movement pay loyal allegiance to the pagan religion of Gaia and not the Christian God. Without most people seeming to realize it, now that the New Green Religion of Global Warming/Climate Change is out of the closet it’s being brazenly preached from the church pulpit. Most folk attend church services in the hopes of finding salvation, but they’ll be told to “Save the Environment” instead. Back in April, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began an $84,000 venture to study how churches can be used to combat climate change. “A taxpayer-funded graduate fellowship at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor is examining 17 faith-based institutions that have implemented “sustainability initiatives” in the hopes of developing workshops to teach pastors and other religious leaders how to change the behaviors of their congregants. (Washington Free Beacon, April 27, 2015) “Climate change—which affects traditional faith-based efforts to improve human health, mitigate poverty and redress social inequity—is inspiring religious organizations to advocate for clean air and water, restore ecosystems, and conserve resources,” a grant for the project, which began last fall, states. “This project seeks to understand the empirical experiences of faith-based environmental efforts within communities.”

“Through what motivations and processes do congregation level sustainability initiatives emerge?” the grant asks. “What factors facilitate and/or hinder implementation of these initiatives? What environmental and community outcomes are perceived to have been achieved through these initiatives?” “The results will provide insights into the role of religion and faith communities in motivating environmental behavior,” it said. “The project, “Sustainability at the Community Level: The Role of Faith-Based Organizations,” is scheduled to last through September 2016. “The project sees churches and other religious institutions as an opportunity to reach millions of Americans and promote “more environmentally sustainable behaviors.” But it was back in 2009 when a newly elected President Barack Obama first began using his Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnership  to foist the Gospel of Gaia on the United States. Back then the only major media personality sending out alarms was Glenn Beck, then still on the Fox News payroll.  “Well, now President Obama is using the faith-based offices to promote the Gospel of Gaia on the United States and there’s nary a raised numb-skull voice?” Beck warned.  (Fox News) “Obama’s Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships recently issued its report of recommendations and the Obama administration is about to take faith-based initiatives to a whole new level. “The president’s council envisions the government and religious partnering to push the good news of  global warming climate change and green issues.  Yes, the religion of environmental and social justice.  [Italics CFP’s] “The council hopes the new EPA faith office will also help churches and other non-profits improve “access to financing,” including “establishing revolving loan programs or working with utility companies to help finance greening building projects.”  Though Pope Francis is catching the most publicity for his throwing in with the climate change movement, he’s not the only religious leader imposing climate change on church goers through preachings from the  Sunday pulpit. The Church of England has also traded soul saving for climate change advocacy, here. But It was the pope’s hand-picked group on the environment that first laid claim to the supposed link between  man-made global warming and slavery. Pope Francis put that theory to work when he participated Wednesday in a meeting on climate change and slavery, where he addressed more than 70 mayors from different parts of the world. During his address in Spanish, he analyzed the two emergencies being addressed during the course of the two-day workshop: climate change and human trafficking. “The culture of care of the environment is not only a “green” attitude, it’s “much more,” said the Pope. Therefore, he specified that to look after the environment is to have an attitude of human ecology. Ecology “is total, it is human,” he said. The Holy Father went on to explain that in the encyclical Laudato Si’, he pointed out “that man cannot be separated from the rest.” (Zenit, July 21, 2015) “The two-day workshop, “Modern Slavery and Climate Change: the Commitment of the Cities,” is sponsored by the Pontifical Academy of Sciences.  “The Pontiff warned of “the boomerang effect that exists against man when the environment is mistreated.” “In connection with the meeting underway, Francis said that he thought it was a good idea to invite the mayors because, the Pontiff pointed out, “one of the things most noted when the environment isn’t looked after is the unbridled growth of cities. It is a worldwide phenomenon. It is as if the heads grow big but increasingly with greater cordons of poverty and misery,” he explained. “People suffer the effects of the neglect of the environment, he continued. “And involved in this connection is the migratory phenomenon,” he added. Why do people come to the big cities? He asked. “Because the rural world no longer gives them opportunities,” he answered.” It seems that Pope Francis is unaware that Obama is now nationalizing the countryside forcing people back into the cities. “The Holy Father then mentioned another point in the encyclical, which criticizes the idolatry of technocracy, something that despoils work, which creates unemployment, he said, highlighting youth unemployment that affects so many European countries. “What horizon, what future is offered these young people? He warned that they risk falling into addictions, boredom, loss of what to do with their lives, suicide, or involvement in guerrilla projects that offer an ideal of life. “The Pontiff also pointed out the quantity of “strange illnesses,” which stem from the excess of the technical, just as he warned about the desertification and deforestation of some areas of the planet. And all these phenomena come together in “black work.” The inability to earn what is necessary to live can cause criminal attitudes, he stressed. In this connection he condemned once again slave labor and prostitution as “sources of work to be able to survive.” On the other hand, the Holy Father said that he has hope in the Paris summit, which will be held at the end of the year, to come to a “fundamental basic agreement.” The United Nations must be strongly interested in this phenomenon, he added. “Pope Francis presented the problems “when man doesn’t respect the relation with the Earth.” By way of example, he spoke of atomic energy – “it’s good, it can help,” but the negative part of this energy exists, such as “Hiroshima and Nagasaki,” he observed. To conclude his address, the Holy Father called attention to the responsibility that those present have to combat the traffic of persons and to protect the environment. “The most serious and profound work is done from the periphery to the center,” he explained, in other words, “from you to the conscience of humanity.” With statements like these, it’s easy to believe that Pope Francis has been proselytized by the Gaia-loving United Nations and their leagues of global warming alarmists. What better way to add new recruits to the drive for man-made climate change than to persuade them at church service, even though Gaia is the proverbial dead opposite to the Gospel of Christ, for which untold millions of  Christians still thirst. Meanwhile, move over Al Gore,  Pope Francis is here.
