The Nimrods of today want to restrict your freedom, take away your rights, tax you for the air you breathe through carbon credit schemes, take away your car, so that you own nothing and eat bugs to survive and make you afraid of the future. I think it is the last attack that is most at odds with the creation mandate. Those who are afraid don’t exercise dominion or multiply.

We are living in an age of misinformation and manipulation. Panic and the end of everything is being used to herd us into digital gulags. Chicken Little yelled the “sky is falling, the sky is falling,” and everyone panicked. Foxy Loxy then used the panic to lure them into his den and then he ate them. Is the sky really falling? Is global warming such an existential threat that we need to surrender all of our rights and submit to Global Governance—to presumably save the sky…no I mean the planet?

Come let us reason together, before we sacrifice our liberty and our lives on the altar of the climate panic, let us take the time to think this through carefully and not give into the panic. What is the origin of all this panic? Some will trace it back to the 1968 Club of Rome’s report on the “Limits of Growth,” which predicted that unchecked growth would lead to a total collapse by the mid 21st century—in other words “the sky would fall.” It has indeed been used by globalist to push for population control, deindustrialization, environmental conservation and efforts to reduce climate change.

The origin I want to focus on, however, is at the beginning of human history. God created the world and gave the Creation Mandate: be fruitful and multiply. God created man to exercise dominion over creation. After the fall, this mandate was still in effect, but it was distorted by sin and misdirected to selfish ambition and control. Instead of being gardeners and promoting human flourishing man sought after an Empire— a domination instead of a dominion. This is a distortion of God’s plan. It is man trying to be god, and it has its own mandate too—the Imperial Mandate. It got so bad that the world did collapse into utter tyranny and the sky did indeed fall. God opened up the windows of heaven and destroyed every living thing except those on Noah’s Ark. God is the only one who can make the sky fall!

This is the key: the total destruction of the world is only in God’s hands. God promised after the flood “I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the intention of man’s heart is evil from his youth. Neither will I ever again strike down every living creature as I have done. 22 While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease.” He even gave us a covenant sign to remind us of this promise: the rainbow.

There is a corollary to this promise. I call it the Noachian Corollary. If God promised never to destroy the whole world again, then he never gave man the power or the ability to do it either. It isn’t that man can’t do things to locallydamage the world—he can— but he just can’t make the sky fall. This corollary is just simple logic. Just look at the rainbow and forget the panic.
