As our earthly life is only temporary & we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?

Shouldn't ALL our attention be placed on getting to the next world rather than getting distracted by our temporary environmental problems? Doesn't the Bible tell us that the apocalypse is preordained anyway so resisting the 'End of Days' is actually resisting God's will.As our earthly life is only temporary %26amp; we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?This is the only world we have no afterlifeAs our earthly life is only temporary %26amp; we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?
sorry, I'm staying right here.





(Psalm 37:10-11) And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. But the meek ones themselves will possess the EARTH, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.As our earthly life is only temporary %26amp; we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?We care about the environment so that our children and grandchildren will be able to enjoy fresh fruit and vegetables grown from the earth.

A Man was asked why he was planting date palms since date palms do not begin to produce fruit until they are 70 years old. "I plant them, not for myself, but my grandchildren."As our earthly life is only temporary %26amp; we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?
Future generations..and all the life forms that are here, we should be caretakers of the earth, we don't really know the end days are coming, or if so, when, and if they will come because of what we are doing. Some of us, prefer this life to the spiritual worlds, we evolve faster here...anyway, to live and be healthy we need food free of poison and clean air. We could lose our eternal life by our destructive methods, a tree is known by its fruits, and faith without works is dead.As our earthly life is only temporary %26amp; we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?Some theorists in the field of salvation have presented the idea of a earth being inhabited forever. [ei JW's] God does state clearly, human life is going to be blessed on earth. Meek shall inherit earth, everyone in own house, with own vineyards as an example.

My conclusion is: better take care of it. The next "earth" may be a really really long distance to escape to. And this I do know. God is very upset with mankind for ruining our earth.....not good.

Do understand the point. Personal fear of coming under God's judgement for ruining His earth causes me to walk on the cautious side in favour of the environment. To become consumed in environmental movements?............ Naaah. Just let it be. I will not risk my ever lasting life.

EDIT: Issues of rapture, earth, heaven, between I am still working on. There must be 10 different kinds of heavens just for Christians
Only science is resisting the end of days as you put it, everything else is accepting the inevitable..As our earthly life is only temporary %26amp; we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?
We are told to be good stewards to the world God gave us. It's like trashing a rental, not a nice thing to do. Stupid if your landlord is God.
well, it is written in the book of revelation, ONE VERSE, which says those who destroy the earth shall be destroyed by God.As our earthly life is only temporary %26amp; we truly live (eternally) after we die why worry about the environment?
It is our responsibility to care for our environment.

Eternity begins NOW.
Huh? How about because there are people who will live on this trash heap after we're gone? Isn't that good enough for you?
So you are saying that you don't care if your grandchildren get to grow up in a wasteland.
I'm so glad I'm not religious.
That would explain why so many WASP's are in global warning denial.
A keen observation! = ]
**** you.



Think about it like this: WE are destroying God's creation, not God itself, we're pretty much mocking it.
Because it would probably be nice to not ruin it for the next group.
You still stuck on that beam me up Scotty trash? Get over it.
Meth is a hell of a drug......
I don't understand. Have you converted to Christianity?
What next world? Ahh, the bible thing....good luck with that. Hope it works out for ya, genuinely.
