Rising Sea Levels - global warming? -
05-22-2022, 04:38 PM
I was watching TV and some guy from some Pacific Island comes on and starts to talk about how because of “global warming”, his country was becoming smaller as sea levels rose. I’ll be frank - I couldn’t grasp what this has to do with my driving around in my Escalade, having heating in my garden, or Pastor Zeke’s private Boeing - all is this half a world away from him on his unpronounceable island.
He clearly hadn’t the faintest idea about how The Lord has organized our World, as any fool knows that water evaporates in heat, and these Pacific Islands are always hot, so if it were getting hotter, the water would go down.
I noted that all Pacific Islands are populated by fat people, so, it’s more than likely that they are all compacting the sand as they walk around or do those dances where they all jump up and down with spears. I think, perhaps he should look to the beam in his eye, before he complains about the mote in mine.
Well, this was on my mind before I went to bed after good helping of cheese. I said my prayers and included a bullet point on rising sea levels/ sinking islands, got into bed, and drifted off to await an answer.
God never fails the faithful and I had this amazing dream. I was in the bathroom and the bathwater was at the right level and I tried to turn off the faucet but it was stuck! I tried to pull the plug but – the way thing are in dreams - the bath was too deep for me to reach it and the water was coming in faster now. I realised that the only way to prevent a flood was to get in and dive down. I got in and the water level rose alarmingly. However,I had a job to do and I dove down but didn’t find the plug the first time. As I came up for breath, I saw three things:
(i) Mrs Bathfire heaping in sponges into the water at the far end as she chanted, “they will absorb the water”,
(ii) the water was still rising
(iii) a ship had docked in the corner near the bidet and a gangplank had been put down.
The next bit is a little confused, but Mrs Bathfire and I ended up sailing away on the ship and found ourselves dining at the Captain’stable with Mrs Bathfire constantly apologizing for my being naked although the Captain did not seem bothered at all.
In the morning, I reviewed the dream. It was probably one of the clearest answers I’d received from God and I will share its interpretation with you:
The bath is the oceans
The rising water is that guy’s problem.
The plug is man’s solution and, as usual, is garbage for we are helpless before God and should not be trying to undo His Doings other than by listening to Him.
The sponges are the ideas of people whose good intentions are the road to Hell
The Ship is Noah’s Ark and the answer.
The Captain is God.
My nakedness recalls the nakedness of Adam before the Fall, (and,in Mrs Bathfire’s eyes, the shameful uncovering of Noah by his son), and God sees me as a person who will convey His Word – a prophet, if you will.
“This is all well and good, Pastor,” I hear you say, “but how does this help that Fuzzy-Wuzzie on a desert island?”
And I reply,
“Sometimes I feel that Lu:4:24: And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country” is an uncomfortable truth that explains why there are Caticks, Lesbians, and Nancy Pelosi.
It should be clear: I get in the bath, and the water rises!A ship comes along – how much water does a ship displace? Millions and millions of gallons. How many ships are there? Billions! And they are getting bigger all the time! Small wonder then that sea levels are rising.
It is the ships and ship builders that are causing rising sea levels!
I must write to that guy and tell him. In the meantime, you can all drive around in Escalades, have heating in your garden, and as many private Boeings as you want.

Rising sea level aka the tides. Wait a day and they go down again, you'd think the Pacific Islanders would have cottoned on to it by now.

God regulates all the water amounts. We have to remember He had some kind of fire hose that floated Noah's Ark and drowned sinners. Then He sucked up the excess so we can live here.
Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.

<sigh>. With all of this rising sea level stuff, I worry that the holdup with Pastor Ezekiel’s jet will hinder the commission of the 24 carat gold S̶u̶p̶e̶r̶ ̶Y̶a̶c̶h̶t̶ Ark won’t be developed in time when the next great flood comes.

It is called 'Tides' and managed by God. As is the case with nearly everything, it is the work of Him and we are not to attempt to interfere with His Divine Plans.
Once, long ago, He had it rain for Forty days and Forty nights. God then receded those waters. He told us why in the Bible. One day, He may tell us more, until then we should sit patiently and let His Glory unfold.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

He still does that in certain parts of the world - catlick Ireland springs to mind. And yet somehow it remains afloat, for it is His Holy Will that those perfectly ghastly people should suffer until they learn the error of their ways.
As Lamentations 3:22 teaches us, It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

The "melting polar ice caps" hoax has been debunked some time ago. It's an experiment that anyone can do at home - just fill a glass with ice cubes and then put water in it, wait for the ice to melt, then observe that the water level doesn't rise. Case closed - it doesn't.
Then you have a gaggle of global warming hoax deniers - "activists" like Al Gore, John Kerry, Obama, Bill Gates - they've all bought expensive mansions on ocean front properties. What do they really know?
Where did the waters from the "Great Flood" really come from? The Firmament - that's where. Take a look at any of the drawings of the Firmament available to anyone on the internet - you will see "Waters above the Firmament" and "Ocean of Heaven" clearly notated.
As to those whiney little leaders on those islands complaining about "sea level rise" - ever hear of those hurricanes that wipe out those sandy beaches? Yea, it might look like the sea level is "rising" - you've just lost your beach (and your tourist trade).
The Bible (KJV1611) tells us that God promised not to send a "Great Flood" again - thus God still maintains control of "climate" despite what anyone tries to tell you.
I am concerned about NASA and Elon Musk as to what might happen when they shoot all those rockets into the Firmament.
Hell's foundations quiver at the shout of praise;
brothers, lift your voices, loud your anthems raise.
...and get off my lawn

Countries that God loves get bigger over time, like America. Countries he hates shrink, like Ukraine.
