If The Planet
Is Worth Saving,
What About YOU?

“God sent his Son into the world
… that the world through him might be saved.”

John 3:17
(paraphrased)

Being ecologically responsible is good, and the Bible teaches this in Genesis that we are to be good stewards of the earth. Pollution in many forms has poisoned what was once a pristine earth with plastics in the seas, radiation in the oceans, and smog in the air. The sad fact is that try as we might, many different types of pollution have stained the earth, and in some cases it is not reversible. In fact a recent TED talk mentioned that while recycling is a good thing it will not save the planet. Help YES - Save NO.

Spiritually there is a prophetic parallel here. Like the earth, every person that has ever lived has also been polluted. Also try as we might, we cannot remove the stain called SIN on our souls, but here is the good news (literally the meaning of the word “gospel”) - there IS a way that it can be removed. The prophet Isaiah showed us the solution:

“...though your sins be as scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they be red like crimson,
they shall be as wool.”

Isaiah 1:18

If you have never really understood the amazing good news of the Gospel message, here it is in a nutshell:

Jesus Christ came to this earth to
Wash away the stain of pollution embedded in us and
Make everyone’s soul “white as snow” again.
All you need do is SAY that with your MOUTH and
BELIEVE it
in your HEART

Friend if you have read this far and not asked for your sin to be taken away, what are you waiting for?

If the planet is worth saving, are YOU not worth saving too??
