DAYS BEFORE THE FLOOD

Greetings in jesus name. What a mighty God we serve it gives me great joy and happiness to be alive today and i know you have same feelings we are counted among the living our God is indeed good. yesterday while pondering on what to write i heard the words days before the flood and days before the end time which makes it a two part writeup all to Gods Glory. Many of us are just living our lives and we think the end of time is a fairy tale, i want to announce to you that same feelings was what the people of the old world had before it was wiped out by water. As in the style of my write up i usally bring up a bible refrence i start with the book of Matthew 24:28 to set you up and prepare your mind into the mood of having deep thoughts this what matthew 24:28 says For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, Its same thing today. The cares of the things of the world consumed them and they indulge in things that does not glorify God infact they forgot about their maker ( Note sin brings about the spirit of forgetfulness gradually removing things of God from our hearts) just like people are doing today they were carried away by merriment until God cancelled the restrictions and the fountains of the great deep were broken off and the windows of heaven were open.(Genesis 7:10) Now lets go back to the old testament and see if God did warn people as he still doing today. God did warn people through his servant noah for the 100 years used in building the ark Noah did warn friends, family and the community at large , but what did they do with the warning?They laughed called him a fool and continued in their wickedness. Genesis 6:5 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. when God warned man to desist from evil men did not rather they went deeper and wickedness overtook their heart which made the intent of the thoughts of men to be continually evil note the word continually their was no sign of repentance their was no repentance. Hebrew 11:7 By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. Noah did not see but believed by faith, this brings to the forefront of days before the flood. the indications of the coming flood was not seen by men, for men like to see before they believed even probably it was not the season to have a rain not to talk about none stop rain which resulted to flooding. so to the men of the world world Noah was talking trash he was not normal. Men continued in sin, just like today justified by the reprobate condition of their heart, they continually keep on sinning. For 100 years, Noah had preached to his friends, family, those he was building the boat with, anyone he met, and he prepared for the Flood, but no one repented or chose God. Imagine being inside the ark. they saw Noah as a fool. Genesis 7:16b And the lord shut him in. 2Pet. 2:5 and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; Noah was a precher of rightousness he was a man who feared the Lord dont be fooled the criteria to make it to Gods kingdom is rightousness and holiness. It was God who shut the single entrance of the ark like he's still going to do at the end of this present age. Acts 17:30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent. Listen to Gods warning of the in coming end time your only escape is to be born of the spirit and be filled with it. just as in the days before the flood men are still in their wickedness and growing in their wickedness repent now, you may say i have hearing of the endtime since the days of my father and uptil now nothing has happened my friend change that mind set God will never ever lie is word must come to pass.as in the days before the flood so it will be days before the end time.
