First, the fate of the planet is, ultimately, not in the hands of mankind. While humans are responsible for caring for the earth , we are not in control of the earth.

At the time the Apostle Paul wrote his first letter to Timothy, half of the population of the Roman Empire - about sixty million people- were slaves.

This Sunday July 4th we will celebrate our nation's birthday. 245 years ago this Sunday the signers of the Declaration of Independence met in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and declared themselves a free nation.
