My Noah Message

While getting dressed this morning, I heard news items on the radio about the red alerts scientific organization are giving to ALL PEOPLE in the world, about the awful future that these terrific climate changes and devastation that are coming - of which the current HOT SPOTS, great forest fires, drought in other areas, and so on and on are but the beginning.

As I settled down to pray I began to wonder what message GOD would like to spread to ALL PEOPLE on the earth. Then I remembered Noah. Yes, God gave him a message to all people warning them that a time of great devastation was coming, and they better come join him in building an ark, as it was going to be the only way to survive when the earth was flooded with water. Totally!!

You probably know that story from the Bible as well as I do. Noah preached that message for 120 years and only his own family believe him. (It doesn't say if his three sons' wives had trouble accepting the warnings or if they wanted to wait out the flood with their parents and original families.).

Now God did promise that He would never bring on such a huge flood again. NEVER! But He does warn towards the end of the New Testament about the earth being burned up in a fire that will turn it into a totally new, different planet.

This does not quite mesh with the message of the Climate change Dooms-sayers. They want us all to change our ways of using the earth's resources, our water, our emissions, etc. They are convinced this will SAVE this earth from its coming Doom.

I have not thought this through long enough to refine my Noah message, but I think the first priority is to urge people to come to faith in Jesus Christ for salvation, and our promised Eternal life in Heaven.

Being good stewards of this earth's resources is a smart concept, but God is more concerned about the evil in the hearts of people, and as with the flood in Noah's day, I believe the day will come when God decides to burn up this earth and all the evil on it, and turn it into a clean and pure globe - perhaps of crystal or some lovely jewel. (I'm trying to guard my imagination!)

God may put a new population on the earth, but whether He will allow them to ruin that earth too... hmm??.... I ...think...NOT!

So... we don't have to worry about urging people to join us in a physical, wooden ark, but we have been given a Great Commission to share the Gospel Message with every human being on earth. If they put their faith in JESUS CHRIST, they will be lifted off this earth in a trice! At the right split second! I'm not sure whether we will be allowed to watch the earth burn up from Heaven. Maybe not, because I don't think God would want us to gloat over those who were left behind and destroyed.

However, Revelation describes a New Holy City that will be smaller than this earth, but it will be made all of glass and colourful jewels, and we will live there, coming and going from there to other parts of the universe - sort of the way angels do.

You need to look into this; it is definitely the BEST PROSPECT for your FUTURE!
