As it was in the day’s of Noah...

I don’t know if you’ve heard of Noah or know who he was? During His time of ministry on the Earth, the LORD Jesus told us “As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.” So who was Noah? Well in the book of Genesis at chapter six verse 5-7 the word says this “Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. So the Lord said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.”

So all of mankind was given over to wickedness and the only man left that was righteous in God’s sight was Noah. God decided to spare only Noah and his family and He instructed Noah to build and ark with which his family and representatives of all of the animal kingdom would be saved from the coming world wide flood which would destroy mankind and the rest of creation upon the Earth.

So it was that God sealed Noah in the Ark and brought the flood on the Earth and when the flood waters receded God brought Noah, his family and the remnant of creation out of the Ark and commanded them to repopulate the Earth.

Now having filled in a little detail about who Noah was and what was going on in the time that he lived. We come back to what the LORD Jesus was saying when He said “As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.” In other words every intent of the thoughts of man will be only evil continually when the LORD Jesus returns at the Second Coming.

I don’t know if you will agree with me but I believe that the time we live in now has many similarities to the time of Noah. Most people are consumed with themselves and hardly anyone gives a thought to the LORD God or to His word the Bible. In fact most people would either claim to not believe in God or are actively worshipping other deities. If not being heavily involved in the doctrines of the New Age and obsessed with self worship.

I know that there are still many millions of Christians alive in our time but I would say we are not quite at the time of the Second Coming yet. In fact when Christ Jesus returns all of those who have found salvation in the period of tribulation and judgement prior to His return will have died for their faith. Those left alive at the Second Coming will be those who follow Satan. They will hate the LORD God and despise His righteousness. They will die in valley of Megiddo at the Battle of Armageddon.

However, I also believe that the Tribulation is not that far away. We live in changing times and the global evil that is described as being as it was in the days of Noah is quite visible in our nations, cities and communities. It is my hope that many will see the times we live in and repent of their sins.

My friends if you don’t have a relationship with Jesus Christ then you are lost in your sins. You need to understand the God so loved you that He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ, to bear your sins on the Cross at Calvary. For you He paid the price that you may be saved. If you believe on Christ Jesus then you will not perish but will inherit eternal life. Please listen to what I am saying and confess your sins to Him and repent (John 3:16 & Acts 2:38).
