1059 Considering God's Schedule Pt-7

This message begins looking at the 4th age of the Earth which was during the time that Noah was in the Arc.
The story of Noah and the flood is one of the salient ones in the Bible but it has taken on a lighthearted atmosphere in the way that it focuses on the unusual storyline and the animals instead of God's sovereignty over His creation.
God gave mankind a freewill to expose their heart's desires and separate those who grieve Him from those who desire to please Him. The result was that by the time of Noah the whole earth had become so corrupt that God gave up on them and decided to start over again with Noah's family and animals chosen by God to replenish the Earth.
The most important lesson in the story of the flood is that God hates and judges sin in ways that we can't possibly understand.
