Genesis 6:3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
When God declared that there would be a flood upon the earth, He outlined the reasons why, and through His ordained prophet, he warned the Antediluvians for 120 years, but secular minds put forth their own spin, and used logic, precedent and probability to utterly refute what God said. In His declaration to the people in Noah’s day, God did not mention anything like global warming as we often do.
The root causes were specified, but since the spiritual and secular are always at odds, people could not make a direct link between disobedience and flooding….. Genesis 6:5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
But here comes the secular modes of thought that we are referring to, and several seemingly logical reasons are put forth to show that what God said is not so, for to the secular mind, there can be no link between sin and flooding. And therefore, based upon those secular lines of reasoning, the multitudes make their decision, for whatsoever world views you hold, those views will eventually affect your decision making.
Genesis 6:12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
