Today is 21st July 2011, the hottest day of this year so far in large areas of North America and some other parts of the world, and I think of The Revelations of Jesus Christ which God gave him to show to his servants. All human beings are creations of God and are his servants. Revelations chapter 16, verses 8 and 9 are applicable to today, and is copied below from the King James Bible:
Rev.16[8] And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
[9] And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.
As servnats everyone of us has a choice. We can be a disobedient servant, disobey God's commandments, blaspheme God, and be part of the problem, OR we can repent of our sins, obey God's commandments, and be part of the solution. The choice is squarely on the shoulders of each individual, and cannot be shifted onto anyone else by sayin such things as "Well, everyone else does it". Make your choice and live or die by it.

Man In Unauthorised Areas
Welcome!
I am a Christian who believes the King James Bible is the true Word of God in the Christian religion, and the following quotations are therefore from that Bible and my comments are my understanding of what God is telling the World through the Bible.
Genesis 1, chapter 1, verses 27 & 28:
[27] So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
[28] And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Comment:
God gave us dominion over the fish, fowls and living creatures on the earth. Dominion means we are rulers. But there are good rulers who nurture and care for the things under them, and there are bad rulers who abuse and destroy things under them. So far we have been very bad rulers. By our destructive actions we are causing many species of animal, fowl, insect and fish life to become extinct, lost forever. Not satisfied with that destruction, we are also polluting the air, soil, lakes, rivers and oceans with poisonous chemicals, gases, plastics, radio active material, petroleum, and whatever destructive material our evil minds can produce, all in the name of "progress". Still not satisfied with that destruction, for the past 50 years we have been invading space where God did not give us dominion.
Read Jude verse 6 to see what happens to creatures who go outside the domain God gave them.
Our immoral behavior and our greed for more material things beyond our needs are leading us on the wrong road which leads to destruction. Tornadoes, tsunami, earthquakes, floods, famine, diseases, wars etc. are destroying us (Colossians 3:5 & 6), Revelations chapters 16-19). Every man-made solution we tried to get relief from them, has failed. Isn't it time to follow God's solution of repentance and ask God for forgiveness? (Acts 2:36-40). We don't have to be bible scholars to do that, but we do have to be sincere. Everyone who ernestly repents for his/her sins, prays sincerely to God for forgiveness and asks for his guidance in whatever they do or say in the future, and daily worships, loves and obeys God, will find deep peace of mind and happiness. He/she will also have an urge to read God's Word, and to follow his Ten Commandments (Exodus 20) which Jesus summarized into the two Greatest Commandments (Matthew 22:37-40). The more a believer reads and re-reads the bible, the more he will learn from God (Matthew 7:7-12 and James 1:5-7). And finally, pray for non-believers that they will change and be healed (Matthew 13:15).God created all human beings, and we are all his people, of all races and all nationalities and all languages. God is fair and just, so his Word is the same to everyone who loves, worships and obeys him by whatever name they know him and in whatever language they speak.
