Genesis 6:11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. 13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
[Patriarchs & Prophets pp 99>100] Upon the eighth day dark clouds overspread the heavens. Soon large drops of rain began to fall. Darker and darker grew the heavens, and faster came the falling rain. The beasts were roaming about in the wildest terror and their discordant cries seemed to moan out their own destiny and the fate of man.
Then “the fountains of the great deep” were “broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.” Rivers broke away from their boundaries, and overflowed the valleys. Jets of water burst from the earth with indescribable force, throwing massive rocks hundreds of feet into the air.
The altars on which human sacrifices had been offered were torn down, and the worshipers were made to tremble at the power of the living God, and to know that it was their corruption and idolatry which had called down their destruction.
Deuteronomy 7: 9 Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations. 10 And repays them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hates him, he will repay him to his face.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
