Mother Nature ? ..... just sayin.....

Mother Nature.......just sayin......


I hope Im not treading on toes here...but everywhere I go lately, I hear constantly, continually and consistently the term 'mother nature' .... even amongst christians, and especially more recently since the Queensland floods and cyclone Yasi (at least here in Australia.)

Turn on a news report and you will hear it.....speak to people in the street, and they will speak it.......

"Mother nature releases her fury"
"Mother nature at her worst"
"There's nothing we can do, mother nature has the last say"
"Mother nature must be angry at us"
"Mother nature is smiling on us, its a beautiful day"

These, are just a few of the most common things I hear being said, and excuse me for saying so, its a LIE and pays homage to a deity that is false, and based on paganism.

Im surprised how many long standing christians speak of 'mother nature', and giving credit to this entity.

So, lets look at this 'mother nature' phenomena, and see, where this whole concept came from.

Write this on the memory of your heart.
It does NOT belong on the lips of a christian.

First of all,did you realize that GOD is in control of the weather ? ... not mother nature.

The word 'nature' comes from the latin words 'natura'... which means birth or character.

Mother nature is a personification of nature -as being both a powerful and nuturing woman who gives and takes life.

'Gaea' is the mythical greek goddess personifying the earth and is the greek version of 'mother nature' or 'earth mother'.

The earliest references to the term is in the Mycenae greek "Mother Gaia".

In Greek mythology, mother nature was the god from which all gods originated and was worshipped throughout Greece. In Roman mythology, she was known as Demeter or god of the Harvest- originally meaning mother earth and later 'Terra' or 'earth'.

Mother nature according to greek and roman mythology and mysticism is the master and creator of all the plants, the forests, the seasons and can control all. She can save us or break us.......

Ancient Wicca religion looks to mother earth as a role model............

The modern use in english language of Mother nature started in about 1662, to describe the phenomena of the world into a single entity.

Think about this please....... ..... there is a global and world wide push in the education system,in the political system, in our scientific system to worship 'mother nature'.

Nature is all creation that is not made by man.... so ........whom do we give the credit to ?

God, or mother nature ?
Who do we give the Glory and credit due to ???

As Christians, we should give ALL Glory and honour to God, Jesus is the way of Salvation, the ONLY way.......not a false female deity born in the imaginations of ancient mythology.................... just sayin :)
