The Lenten season had passed away and now we entered in a new season two weeks ago, the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. But looking backward we remember that the Lenten season was a time for repentance. All of us is called to clean ourselves from sins because whether we like it or not we are sinners. We are sinners ab initio. We are imperfect by nature. So, in order to cope with this nature of us, to be cleaned and saved, the Church warned us that we gonna die forever if we are tough to repent our sins and accept Jesus as the ultimate savior. Jesus died for us in the cross. He saved us from sins two thousand plus ago. We gonna suffer to the eternal fire if we do not pay attention to the warnings of the Church.
That is soul matter. What about our situation now? Our situation having still alive. I feel I am already burned in fire. Is hell going down to the earth?
At this time, another warning we should have to pay attention; a warning that cares for our lives on earth. The group of leading scientist warned us with the existence of Global Warming. The earth is burning that is why we experience too much hot environment, extreme radiation from the sun, climate change, melting of ice caps in the polar regions, etc. These problems are now present and many people already suffered. The question now, do we have another savior like Jesus Christ to secure us from these major threats of our lives? In this story it is different though somehow it has similarities. Jesus Christ was not declared us real Messiah until he was resurrected. The people of Jesus time are hardheaded similar today. The good question raised by Ex Vice President of United States Al Gore his documentary movie, how do we respond if we heard warnings from the leading scientists? If Jesus Christ warnings was in doubt to the people in his time, the people of today are also in the doubt of the warnings given by scientists. And one consequence that is sure about this situation; regrets
Some things are predictable while others are not. We already have enough tools to determine things. But it would be a fool act if we still do things against our rational capacity to avoid it to happen. If the claim is out of clear and concrete evidence and coming from reliable sources there is no other rational thing you need to do but to believe it. Believe and take action because you are actually doing things that is right. After all you developed and you become great.
