It’s Father God, Not Mother Nature!

Regularly, we are bombarded with terminology that is not biblical and has origins in paganism and otherCreation false religions.  We constantly hear that “Mother Nature sent us another hurricane,”  “Mother Nature brought rain today,” or “she” was responsible for some other earthly phenomena.  It is heard so much that it is accepted.  Hardly anyone gives the reference to a mythical deity a second thought, but they should!

In case you have not stopped to think about it, there is no “Mother Nature.”  There is no scientific or otherwise proof that there is such a “she.”  Implying Mother Nature is somehow in control of the environment, atmosphere, or even how things grow is recognizing one that does not exist, let alone deserves any credit.

The credit for all on this Earth only belongs to God, the Creator.  He is the one that allows the rain, flowers to bloom, birth, death of species, and has created everything.

He is a He!  In the Genesis account of creation alone, God is referred to as a male at least 14 times with the pronoun “he.” In the rest of the book, “he” is also used to describe a male God at least 15 times.  Even the Hebrew words for God are masculine.  Nowhere in the preserved, time-honored King James Bible is God referred to as female.

If the Word of God names God as male, where did the notion come from that His domain and creation are controlled by the mystical Mother Nature?  Some part of giving maternal credit could be given to the modern practice of not wanting to offend anyone by mentioning “God.”

The politically correct terminology has gotten our society by the tongue, and will not let it go.  Many have allowed the few ungodly who have gained public recognition for their dislike of God to influence what is said.  Sadly, we have gotten to the point that we are apprehensive about mentioning God in a nation that not long ago was termed a “Christian” nation.

Perhaps giving credit to a non-existent being is easier or less embarrassing to many than saying “His” name.  For a group of people that prides themselves on their intelligence, it is quite childish to give credit to a non-existent “Momma.” Well-educated television weathermen have said on the airwaves that “Mother Nature has brought us another gorgeous day” and other fictitious quotes.

Perhaps man is even changing terminology to reflect his ideas of who and what God is.  Pagans of the past and present certainly had no qualms in making Him anything they wished.  They have even given credit and worship to trees, water, mountains, and other parts of the creation.

Women representing “mother Earth” and “mother nature” have been around for a long time.  Goddesses were attributed to fertility and “nature” for many millennia.  Female deities being given credit for what God has done have been worshiped in Assyrian, Babylonian, Greek, Incan, Indian, and Roman civilizations, to name a few.  Even to this day, “Gaia,” “Sophia,” and other female “deities” are mentioned among Christians as if they exist.

These influences, wherever they came from, are not Christian.  It is the Christian that should have instilled in his own heart and should influence the thinking of others that there is one God: “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” Exodus 20:3

For a Christian, God is the God of the Bible.  The Bible is the window showing us who and what God is.  From the preserved Word of God, we get the unshakable account of how we got here, how the Earth was created, how God worked through time with our ancestors, and how he will work with us.  Just because some have rejected what the Bible says about God and are highly rebellious against Him does not mean we have to join them in their philosophy and sin.

Some have even changed “bibles” to reflect that God is female or that He is non-sexed.  It seems that ploy has been around since the beginning, even in the Garden with Adam and Eve.  It was Satan that got the first man and woman to question what God had said.  That ruse is still being played today.  Many are changing what the truth says in the Word of God, but they can never change what is the truth, no matter how hard they hide or distort it.

The truth is preserved in the precious Word of God.  It clearly says that God is the Creator and controller of all that goes on in this universe.  Do not allow non-Christian philosophies and influences to slowly erode your beliefs from what the Bible says.

It is Father God that created this world, and it is He that is still the one that is allowing all that happens to His Earth.  May your speech even reflect what you believe.  Say it was Father God that brought the rain today, and He that brought out the sunshine later.  Give God His due glory.
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” Genesis 1:27

  1. My heart is heavy. Does anyone question the Geoengineering that is going on above our heads every day? We are slowly being poisoned, so my question is, is this God’s doing then? I understand what you speak of about mother nature. But, certain people in power (government) are committing genocide. I don’t see how this is o.k. I am trying very hard to have a relationship with GOD.

    1. Sin is wicked. Being spraying atmospheric chemicals that may hurt people or kill little unborn babies. It is not God’s choice for man to sin, but he does, and so do we. We don’t know how such horrible things could be in God’s plan, but often they are. Maybe if more people publically stood against the atrocities done against other people, God would intervene more. But, unfortunately, if most people are not directly affected my something they ignore it, and the action continues. We should not blame God when we are more responsible in many cases to intervene.

  2. Since following the Lord I became more in tune with Gods creation and ways. No longer saying things along the line that discredit our creator.

  3. I can’t stand it when someone says “Mother nature”!

    There’s a very popular book out and movie called “The Shack” that many Christians are reading and watching that portrays God ad a female! That really burns me up!
