Earth 2.0?! (Poem)

See the series here

Some well-educated folks yearn and search for Earth 2.0,

Another planet (!) where we can continue to thrive and grow,

After we have literally trashed the Earth we only know.

But they’re less concerned about changing our …lifestyles status quo. ¹

 

Folks waste time, money and lives simply because they opine, 

‘Someday we must jump ship, so life elsewhere we should design!’ 

Earth, home of the ‘spiritually naive and the  blind’.

They’re aligned with anything/anyone but The Lord’s Mind.

 

So if/IF their dream was ever to be realized,

How do they think life somewhere else would ...be organized?

Would all land on another planet ...be privatized?

And by racism and crime, would folks ...be terrorized?

 

Thank God, nowhere in His plans will their dream materialize!

In His plans, Earth is man’s appointed proving ground, customized. ²

And since with the weight of sinfulness, she’s always pressurized,

Periodic 'Earth-updates'  He has graciously authorized:

 

Earth 1.0 – The Lord’s original, perfect creation (Genesis 1:1)

Earth 2.0 – Re-creation after devils fell from Heaven (Genesis 1:2) ³

Earth 3.0 – In the flood, Earth refashioned (Genesis 6 – 8) ⁴

Earth 4.0 – His Millennial Reign version (Revelation 16:17-21, Isaiah 2:4,      

                            11:6-10, 65:17, Revelation 20:1, Zephaniah 3:9)

Earth 5.0 – A brand new, eternal Earth, His final creation (Revelation 21)

 

So while, on finding an Earth 2.0, folks fixate,

They’re clueless it’s Earth 3.0 we now populate! ⁵

And The Lord says, there’re 2 more versions He will create.

Yet any talk of Him or creation, they berate.

 

Each Earth version follows The Lord’s judgment on some group’s sins,

Yet folks refuse to connect sins to ruts we find ourselves in.

Failing The Lord’s common denominator to comprehend,

In designing colonies on the moon and Mars …they pretend. ⁶

Dream on~

Keep pretending~

⁴ Some scientists and Bible scholars understand Earth was one land mass. Some Bible scholars understand the worst ever earthquake, promised in Isaiah 13:13 and Haggai 2:6, might rejoin all continents and eliminate all mountains, that is EXCEPT Jerusalem, which in The Millennial Reign of Christ, will be raised up high, e.g., on a mountain. (It is very interesting to note this is exactly what The Lord promises for the New Jerusalem on a brand new Earth in eternity! See: Revelation 21:10) This plausible notion indicates the purpose of mountains might be to make room for flood waters, especially since there is no mention of oceans in the first 6 chapters (pre-flood) of Genesis.
