Noah and the Flood

When the human population began to grow rapidly on the earth, the sons of God saw the beautiful women of the human race and took any they wanted as their wives. Then the LORD said, "My Spirit will not put up with humans for such a long time, for they are only mortal flesh. In the future, they will live no more than 120 years."

In those days, and even afterward, giants lived on the earth, for whenever the sons of God had intercourse with human women, they gave birth to children who became the heroes mentioned in legends of old.

Now the LORD observed the extent of the people's wickedness, and he saw that all their thoughts were consistently and totally evil. So the LORD was sorry he had ever made them. It broke his heart. And the LORD said, "I will completely wipe out this human race that I have created. Yes, and I will destroy all the animals and birds too. I am sorry I ever made them. But Noah found favor with the LORD.


This is the history of Noah and his family. Noah was a righteous man, the only blameless man living on earth at the time. He consistently followed God's will and enjoyed a close relationship with him. Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

Now the earth had become corrupt in God's sight, and it was filled with violence. God observed all this corruption in the world, and he saw violence and depravity everywhere. So God said to Noah, "I have decided to destroy all living creatures, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. Yes, I will wipe them all from the face of the earth!

Make a boat from resinours wood and seal it with tar, inside and  out. Then construct decks and stalls throughout its interior. make it 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. Construct an opening all the way around the boat, 18 inches below the roof. Then put three decks inside the boat bottom, middle, and upper and put a door in the side.

Look! I am about to cover the earth with a flood that will destroy every living thing. Everything on earth will die! But I solemnly swear to keep you safe in the boat, with your wife and your sons and their wives.  Bring a pair of every kind of animal a male and a female into the boat with you to keep them alive during the flood. Pairs of each kind of bird and each kind of animal, large and small alike, will come to you to be kept alive. And remember, take enough food for your family and for all the animals." So Noah did everything exactly as God has commanded him.

According to Scripture can you imagine in the sight of God how he destroyed the wickedness that he seen. It was so immorally unclean that God hate the fact that he even created such humans. A earth filled with violence and depravity unclean spirits is what God seen right in his sight.

The only righteous one he seen was Noah, so God called favored upon him and his family. The same goes for the husband or wife that is living a clean and righteous life can save the uncleanliness of a spouse that is not living righteous. It all starts through prayer.

Well in the passage those that are living perverted lives having sexual intercourse with the woman of a human race. Sons of God meaning those were like giants so their fetus would be abnormal larger than the average baby. God seen the motives of these Giants and it was very evil how they would treat the woman of human race. Taking advantage and making do things that was totally an abomination to God.

Why God wanted to wipe the earth by destroying. Letting his servant Noah know what his plans were, so he asked Noah to build the Ark and make enough room for his family and the animals with enough food to eat for his family and the animals.

God was angry. You do not want to make God angry cause he can cause you so much grief and pain. Actually it's your sin that causes you the grief, cause it goes against the Word of God.Whatever goes against his Word you will experience pain. The wise thing to do is to kneel in prayer and ASK God to forgive your sins, don't repeat the same sin over and over again. Cause then you are playing, and it's like playing with FIRE where you will always get burned. The holyghost is nothing to take lightly, either you HOT or you are COLD. If you are LUKEWARM God will puke you out, you do not like your food lukewarm the same goes for God.

He wants all of you MIND, BODY, and SOUL. Not part of you, or else he will say get away or depart from me cause I never knew you, ouch that hurts. Why cause you never took the time to DEVELOP a personal relationship with the Creator. God is your friend till the end, so communicate with him and tell him what you are experiencing and going through. You can be like Noah and develop that close relationship with God and you will always have favor with him.

Being rooted in spiritual ignorance. Man's total  depravity manifests.
