World leaders want us to take action in the face of a global climate crisis. Okay, so why aren't self-professing Christians packing into pews to hear and receive God's Word and Sacraments?

Christians don't look up to the heavens for wisdom. We look down into the Scriptures. What do the Scriptures say about the sun, moon, and stars? What does the fourth day of creation tell us about them? How about Psalm 19, the book of Job, and Jonah?

The burden of proof is on the millennialist to show that Revelation 20's thousand years are literal—according to the church's historic hermeneutical principles. Rev.
