For example, Genesis 2:15 calls us to serve and protect the earth. Like the slogan on the side of every Chicago police car (”To serve and protect”), we humans made from the humus are given the responsibility and the joy of being creation’s cops—watching over and protecting as well as cultivating and using the gifts of the earth. And the Bible teaches us that we must give special attention to those most vulnerable—the modern equivalents of the widows, orphans, and aliens of Old TestNENT times. The question is: will we?
