Noah's Ark
Genesis 6:13 NASB
Then God said to Noah, “...The end of all flesh has come before Me;
for the earth is filled with violence because of them; and behold, I am
about to destroy them with the earth...."
Genesis 7:1 NASB
Then the Lord said to Noah, “Enter the ark, you and all your household, for you alone I have seen to be righteous before Me in this time..."
Genesis 10:32 NASB
These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, by their nations; and out of these the nations were separated on the earth after the flood.
Revelation 5:9 NASB
And they *sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are You to take the book and
to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your
blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation..."
The Meaning of the True Historical Genesis Flood:
1.) The flood was no doubt a world-wide flood, but also it is the case through multiple numerous accounts through civilizations around the world that refer to a global concept of a flood in past catastrophe that is evidenced by geology in the mere concept of advocating a idea of catastrophe. We would say the Bible has already founded the catastrophic end of the ancient world, but is revealed in primary sources and yet it is contained in the divine revelation of the completed God-Speaking Scriptures.
2.) The ancient elect of Noah and his Christian family were saved by the humungous Ark structure, because it foreshadows the saving work of Jesus Christ as the New Testament Ark of Noah. Everyone else perished, because God did not seek to save anyone else. Why? He was working out His purpose, but it seems to me that many civilizations before the Lord's flood perished in a plethora of multitudes of unsaved, unregenerate and perishing reprobates who engaged in lawless violence and a degradation of marriage.
The Application of the Genesis Flood:
Noah Preaching
1.) Noah was a preacher of righteousness, but what do we think he may have said? God-speaking Scripture tells us that true unified imputed righteousness by faith alone is the way that a preacher speaks about true, authentic and genuine righteousness. Noah still preached though it seemed hopeless, because God said he chose His family alone among the pre-flood civilizations. It simply means preach where there is no hope and Jesus is honored.
2.) The world fail by water, but it will fall by fire in the end. The scientist now says that the world will fall by fire through the sun, but the Bible agrees that the world will perish by fire through the eternal Son Jesus Christ. It is a symbolic way to purify the world of groaning unto the agony of disorder through the spiritual mechanism of sin, but there will be a new heavens and a new earth where the people of God in Christ chosen by God before the world began will have true enslaved freedom unto a perfect sinlessness for the glory of Jesus Christ alone by the design of the Father through the dominance of the Spirit of God.
3.) What if a holy Triune God makes the world fall again by the water of the Word? What if a holy Triune God makes the world fall by the Living Word Jesus Christ by the Spirit of God through the Word preached? A holy Triune God is a God who turns things on its head, but the water of the Word is not meant to destroy lives...yet to save lives, but the fire that comes out of heaven is the Spirit bringing life to those who are caught on fire by a abyss lifestyle of hell.
