Despite the fact that the Bible as the inspired Word of God deals primarily with the relationship between God and humankind and the way to salvation and eternal life, the Bible also presents tenets that entreat the protection of the natural and biophysical world. Consequently, since the environment is a foremost aspect of God s creation it is appropriate to establish the Biblical perspective on creation as a whole and Christians subsequent position and duty to creation. Humankind has been ecologically irresponsible. Greed, inadequate knowledge and negligence have led to exploitation, degradation, and disregard for the natural environment. Unfortunately, there appears to be a deep silence within the Christian Church worldwide as well as in South Africa on believers role and duty towards the natural created environment. God s redemptive care applies not only to people, but also to the whole of creation. Believers have a duty of care in relation to God s creation in totality both humanity and the natural environment. There is a great need for Christian discussion on and improvement in the appropriate use and protection of the environment.
