JESUS Said Things Would Be Like They Were In Noah’s Days Before He Returns To Get Us = Matthew 24;37-42




Matthew 24;37-42


But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

This evil people, which refuse to hear my words, which walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other gods, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is good for nothing.

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done. And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle. And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the soldiers for the violence of the people. For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him.



AMEN

Very good post maam. Are you able to see how we are living in that time period now, especially in the way Jesus compared it?

Yes, Jehovah judged the world in Noah's time because humanity was ruined due to violent behavior, especially due to the influence of abusive demihumans.

Jehovah made a drastic decision, but he found a righteous man whom he wanted to save. His having found one righteous man at least shows that Jehovah goes to great lengths to find people with the right disposition to save them from disaster.

Gen. 6:5 Consequently, Jehovah saw that man’s wickedness was great on the earth and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only bad all the time. 6 Jehovah regretted that he had made men on the earth, and his heart was saddened. 7 So Jehovah said: “I am going to wipe men whom I have created off the surface of the ground, man together with domestic animals, creeping animals, and flying creatures of the heavens, for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah.
9 This is the history of Noah. Noah was a righteous man. He proved himself faultless among his contemporaries. Noah walked with the true God.

The Bible says that Noah was a "preacher of righteousness"... But obviously, no one wanted to believe what he have to said.

2 Pet. 2:5 And he [, God,] did not refrain from punishing an ancient world, but kept Noah, a preacher of righteousness, safe with seven others when he brought a flood upon a world of ungodly people.

Jehovah has chosen Jesus to judge humanity very soon. Jesus was also human and he knows our problems; he also has other human brothers who, like Noah, have been preaching justice in our times. Jesus, in his approaching judgment of humanity, will take into account how people treat his brothers (Matt. 25:31-46) :

Acts 17:30 True, God (...) now is declaring to all people everywhere that they should repent. 31 Because he has set a day on which he purposes to judge the inhabited earth in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and he has provided a guarantee to all men by resurrecting him from the dead.
