🌊 Noah’s Time and Christ’s Second Coming
(A Biblical Summary)
🕰️ Before the Flood – Noah’s Generation
Condition of the People:
Wickedness filled the earth (Genesis 6:5).
Thoughts and imaginations of men were evil continually.
Violence and corruption spread everywhere (Genesis 6:11–12).
People ignored Noah’s preaching and mocked his warning (2 Peter 2:5).
God’s Messenger:
Noah was a preacher of righteousness (2 Peter 2:5).
He warned the people of coming judgment and preached repentance for 120 years.
Duration and Preparation:
Noah built the ark for about 120 years (Genesis 6:3).
The ark was built exactly as God instructed — about 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high (Genesis 6:15).
The ark had one door — symbolizing Christ as the only way of salvation (John 10:9).
God’s Judgment:
When the ark was finished, God shut the door (Genesis 7:16).
The flood destroyed all who refused God’s warning (Genesis 7:21–23).
Only those inside the ark were saved — just as only those in Christ will be saved (1 Peter 3:20–21).
🌤️ Before Christ’s Second Coming – Our Generation
Condition of the People:
Jesus said, “As the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” (Matthew 24:37)
People will be busy with eating, drinking, marrying, and ignoring God (Matthew 24:38–39).
Sin, corruption, and unbelief will again fill the world (2 Timothy 3:1–5).
Many will mock the promise of His coming (2 Peter 3:3–4).
God’s Messenger Today:
God now speaks through His Word and His Church — the preachers of the Gospel.
The call is to repent and believe in Jesus Christ before judgment comes.
God’s Judgment and Salvation:
When Christ returns, it will be sudden and final — like the flood.
The saved will be taken to be with the Lord, and the unbelievers will face judgment (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17; Revelation 20:11–15).
Just as there was one ark, there is only one Savior — Jesus Christ (John 14:6).
