Bible Question: Isnt the nature of science and bew discoveries of science proving the revelation of the earth written in the bible wrong?maybe not today,but a thought came to me about the future whether the world will end or not.As in 2012,where people thought that the world will end but here we are it is 4 years since 2012.Although God created everyrhing(including science),science tells us that earth will end either by crisis on the earth by humans,pollution,wars,diseases,etc or it might end by asteroid impacts,planetery crisis due to pollution,dying of our sun,etc.So, what if the earth ends in either of these reasons before the opening of the scrolls? CONCLUSION- And technology is improving month by month,who knows what will happen 2 decades from now? Scientists say that by 2020 or later,every family will have at least 1 cancer patient,earth might end sooner than i thought...but if we do not create a better earth for us by ending global warming or eradicating dangerous diseases, earth's resources will be depleted..and we can become an extinct race.People will live on other planets 2 decades from now (as nasa states it), isnt that sinful?,living on another planet? The bible did not mention anything about this...so what will happen if earth ends and there are still humans living on other plantes by terraforming? Please add your notes for discussion about our fate. |
Bible Answer: Hi, Hash... Welcome to the forum! Every generation of men seek to provide a sound and reasonable explanation for our observations. If you went back to the height of the Greek civilization, you would find that they had a very cogent explanation concerning the many fossils they found them and for the motions of the planets and stars. One thing that all these things -- including our own contemporary explanations -- have in common is a denial of God. As Romans 1 clearly explains, it is not truth that men seek, rather it is justification to avoid being obligated to the Creator. Thus, it is not a question of fact, but a question of ethics. Now the word "fate" that you use is not one employed in Christian theology. Rather it has its roots in ancient paganism. Ephesians 1 and 2 describe the objective toward which our God is heading -- unimpeded by creatures' choices, plans, and efforts. This is what we call His Eternal Purpose. You can find further details in the last few chapters of Revelation. In Him, Doc |
