Days of Noah

Matthew 24:37, "For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, they were marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and they did not understand untiel the flood came and took them all away, so shall the coming of the Son of Man be."



This verse says that most of the people of the earth will be busy with their lives and not paying attention to the signs that are in front of their nose to warn them of the coming judgement. In the days of Noah, it took him 120 years to build the ark. There was a big sign. Maybe we are going to have a big sign right in front of our nose and not even pay attention. The creation of Israel as a nation after almost 2000 years, without a war to regain the land, being gathered from all of the regions of the world might be our sign!!! You think.



For any of you non-Christians or new Christians, I would be asking "how could Noah work on the ark for 120 years?" It is easy, he lived to be 950 years old. Genesis 9:28, "so all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years, and he died." Then if I were you, I would be asking how can he live that long? It is easy, everyone lived to be around 900 years old. What?



You see, according to Genesis 1:7, "And God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were below the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse." There was a bubble of water around the earth protecting us from the sun rays and creating a green house on the earth where everything lived longer and grew bigger. Plants grew several feet a day and probably produced fruit several times a year. There were no oceans, and one large land mass.

The earth was flat and mostly land.

Did you know that it will be more like that during the millenial kingdom? Most will live the whole time.

Why did the people in the days of Noah not get it? The main reason is that they had never seen rain. It had never rained? The earth was watered like a green house with a mist from the ground. So, a boat meant nothing to them. Water had never been a threat. And then, one day the water above the earth was burst, I think by an asteroid which scientist showed that it hit on the tip of the Yucatan penisula in the Gulf of Mexico, and the water flooded the whole earth. This asteroid destroyed the dinosaurs and all living creatures that were not on the Ark or lived in the water. It changed the face of the earth and we are still shifting because of the impact. A fun thing to do is go to Google earth and look at the oceans. It is easy to see how the land masses have shifted and some of the land has gone underwater. It is also easy to see how the continents use to fit together. South America use to be touching Africa. Man, it has moved a long way.

So, today there are lots of people that are missing the signs of a coming judgement. God promised to never use water again. Next time it is by fire. We discussed the possible fire judgement coming in a past blog.

Don't be one of those who miss out on salvation from the coming judgement because you will not look at the signs in front of your nose.
