Creation Care---verses preparation
2pet.3:10-14
10 但主的日子要像贼来到一样。那日天必大有响声废去，有形质的都要被烈火销化。地和其上的物都要烧尽了。
11 这一切既然都要如此销化，你们为人该当怎样圣洁，怎样敬虔，
12 切切仰望神的日子来到。在那日天被火烧就销化了，有形质的都要被烈火熔化。
13 但我们照他的应许，盼望新天新地，有义居在其中。
14 亲爱的弟兄啊，你们既盼望这些事，就当殷勤，使自己没有玷污，无可指摘，安然见主。
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.
11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives
12 as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.
13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness.
14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him.
Rom.1:25
25 他们将神的真实变为虚谎，去敬拜事奉受造之物，不敬奉那造物的主。主乃是可称颂的，直到永远。阿们。
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen.
Psalm 100
诗篇
1 （称谢诗。）普天下当向耶和华欢呼。
2 你们当乐意事奉耶和华。当来向他歌唱。
3 你们当晓得耶和华是神。我们是他造的，也是属他的。我们是他的民，也是他草场的羊。
4 当称谢进入他的门，当赞美进入他的院。当感谢他，称颂他的名。
5 因为耶和华本为善，他的慈爱，存到永远，他的信实，直到万代。
Psalms
1 A psalm. For giving thanks. Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.
2 Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the LORD is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.
Heb 1:3
3 他是神荣耀所发的光辉，是神本体的真像，常用他权能的命令托住万有，他洗净了人的罪，就坐在高天至大者的右边
3 The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
Gen.2:15
15 耶和华神将那人安置在伊甸园，使他修理看守。
15 The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.
Neh. 13:16-19
16 又有推罗人住在耶路撒冷。他们把鱼和各样货物运进来，在安息日卖给犹大人。
17 我就斥责犹大的贵胄说，你们怎么行这恶事犯了安息日呢？
18 从前你们列祖岂不是这样行，以致我们神使一切灾祸临到我们，和这城吗？现在你们还犯安息日，使忿怒越发临到以色列。
19 在安息日的前一日，耶路撒冷城门有黑影的时候，我就吩咐人将门关锁，不过安息日不准开放。我又派我几个仆人管理城门，免得有人在安息日担什么担子进城。
16 Men from Tyre who lived in Jerusalem were bringing in fish and all kinds of merchandise and selling them in Jerusalem on the Sabbath to the people of Judah.
17 I rebuked the nobles of Judah and said to them, "What is this wicked thing you are doing--desecrating the Sabbath day?
18 Didn't your forefathers do the same things, so that our God brought all this calamity upon us and upon this city? Now you are stirring up more wrath against Israel by desecrating the Sabbath."
19 When evening shadows fell on the gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I ordered the doors to be shut and not opened until the Sabbath was over. I stationed some of my own men at the gates so that no load could be brought in on the Sabbath day.
Gen.1:26-28
26 神说，我们要照着我们的形像，按着我们的样式造人，使他们管理海里的鱼，空中的鸟，地上的牲畜，和全地，并地上所爬的一切昆虫。
27 神就照着自己的形像造人，乃是照着他的形像造男造女。
28 神就赐福给他们，又对他们说，要生养众多，遍满地面，治理这地。也要管理海里的鱼，空中的鸟，和地上各样行动的活物。
26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

12 切切仰望神的日子来到。在那日天被火烧就销化了，有形质的都要被烈火熔化。
