As it was in the days of Noah [Spirituality & Religion]

A Christian lady asked God to give her a dream about how it will be at the end of the age.
That night she dreamed she was in a nice restaurant having a lovely meal and outside there was a lot of noise, she went out to see what was going on and to her horror bombs were going off and the foundations of the restaurant had been hit and would soon fall down.
She went inside and warned everyone what was happening and warned them to get out to a place of safety but most ignored her and said it was only thunder, some even became abusive
In Noah's day people were living their normal lives and Noah pleaded with them to come to a place of safety and they ignored him and thought he was joking.
We need to turn to Jesus, a place of safety before it's too late!
Beautiful. Yes, in Noah's day they laughed and mocked him. It had never rained on the earth before, so they thought the old man was crazy, predicting a flood. They even mocked God. However, God will not be mocked. Heaven & Earth shall pass away, but His words shall never pass away. Neither shall the works of Jesus in saving our souls, so any may have the honor of uniting with our Father in Heaven for eternity. I pray no one gets left behind. Like now, God gave them hundreds of years of warning, but they refused to listen. "And God shut the door of the ark."
@TheWildEcho They sure did. If only they had listened. I added a couple more lines to my reply.

@LadyGrace yes, the door of heaven is going to be shut too
@TheWildEcho Yes, brother.
The Noachian flood never happened though. At least not as described nor on the scale told in the bible.

There are too many fields of science showing that such an event did not and could not have taken place.

So if you're afraid time is running out (the latter day saints have been sure it is for some time) then by all means, pray to Jesus. But maybe leave the flood out of it if you're hoping to convince people.
@similarexperience

I'm not sure that faith is an accurate word.
Rather, I am [i]convinced [/i]by the conclusions of science.
I am convinced by the evidence that the scientific method is able to produce.
I am convinced by the way science can predict what we will find in the world before we ever learn it, demonstrating its reliability as a way know knowing what is true.
To do otherwise requires that one either believes in massive conspiracy or unfathomably compounded incompetence on the part of people of every nation, in hundreds of different fields all over the world.

[quote]What will this science do for you in the end?[/quote]

But i guess that's the thing. I am convinced of the accuracy of the scientific method whether or not it tells me what i want to hear.
Maybe that's where my trust in science differs from faith.

@Pikachu theres scientists out there who passionately believe the flood happened, I remember going to one of their lectures a few years ago
Fascinating stuff
@TheWildEcho

Very few and far between and often letting their religion get in the way of their science.

There are just too many reasons we can point to why the flood didn't happen in too many fields. Archaeology, paleontology, geology, physics, anthropology, biology....and all these fields and all these scientists converging on the same answer.

So maybe there are a few religious scientists who have convinced themselves that the flood really happened...but they haven't managed to make a compelling case to their peers or the general public.

Better to just get out of the way of the bombs and then build another restaurant. Jesus is long gone.
@GodSpeed63 If he does exist, then post-mortem salvation will apply, so I'll just decide when I'm given all of the information from the man himself. I'm not going to decide based only on what an ignorant, hateful, self-centered cretin like you says.

What left is that coming out of? Please elaborate. When have been any of those things?

Maybe it's a sign 🤔

Well i know and most Christians who share the Gospel know that the majority of todays people are like those people in the restaurant..
TheWildEcho · 56-60, M
@Adstar yes, sadly that's true
JoePourMan · 61-69, M
Why would a Christian need a dream since that was already written in scripture?
Adstar · 56-60, M
@JoePourMan I trust the Word of God.. And the Word of God can and does send dreams to help His people understand things..
JoePourMan · 61-69, M
@Adstar the problem is I can't verify the dream that someone has. There are many many false prophets as Ezekiel pointed out:
"Her prophets plastered them with untempered mortar, seeing false visions, and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD,’ when the LORD had not spoken."
Adstar · 56-60, M
@JoePourMan I have at my foundation the Word of God.. If a dream delivers a message in conflict with the Word of God then it is to be rejected.. I do not concern myself overly with other peoples dreams.. I take them with a gain of salt.. I will have a listen to other people dreams.. But i do not place my faith in them 100%..

I am more concerned with paying attention to the dreams i have.. And testing them against the scriptures..

And they wonder why there’s a plague

God is control of everything. for those who are against God and it depends on God's Time who this person is. God has a trap for those who will be awarded by Death


for those who are a Child of God will live on Peacefully to exist in this world and passed away to Heaven.

So true! Lovely illustration, thank you! There’s a lot of focus on the mundane nowadays! Herd immunity is a thing, like herd deception!
GodSpeed63 · 61-69, M
Amen, brother, amen. Praise God that Jesus came to save that which was lost - us.
