Haven't we had Rock songs telling us the same? About the end of the world? Now, we are experiencing climate change.
Largely involving petroleum and plastics.
I've thought about that Christian Rapture song about a loaf of bread being a bag of gold in cost. How could that be?
Well, if there's not enough of the flour to make it on the earth.

There is only one small problem with this. It's the song itself.  How can we replace the word Yesterday with the word Now in the song it's not going to work is it ?

Perhaps fear mongering is a way of life for some people ? This
song has a nice opening line, "Fear is the key that's closing all the doors"

Psalm 111:10; The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
Proverbs 1: 7; The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Peace.

Perhaps what the author meant was respect for creation. The humility to see that you as a creature are at once almost insignificant in terms of the size and vastness of the Universe. On the other hand, you have been created with a self awareness that is essentially perfect and unbounded.
