Matthew 24:36-38 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but My Father only. But as the days of Noah 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,
Genesis 7:4-10 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth. And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood. And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
7:11-13 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
7:17-19 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth. And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters. And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
7:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
Geneis 8:1-3 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged; The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained; And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.
8:4-5 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventh day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat. And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
8:6-7 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made: And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
Genesis 8:8-12 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground; But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark. And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark; And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth. And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
8:13-14 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry. And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.

Noah is symbolic of us, man. We are those "eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage," until...we enter the ark, if we enter the ark, for many won't...their choice.
Genesis 7:4-10 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth. And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood. And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
Seven days of warning were given, fulfilled and shall again be fulfilled. Remember that a day to the Lord is as a thousand years, [2 Peter3:8] so as the seven days brought 40 days and nights of rain....so shall the rains again be given at the end of seven thousand years for He has given us warning throughout this time.
We should see three different things here....one is the flood of waters, another is the rain of the Lord and to add to the flood will be "fountains of the great deep." They are not the same!
As He sent rain after seven days...He shall send rain after seven thousand years...He will again send the rain for forty days and forty nights. After that....every living thing will be destroyed if it isn't "on the ark." What is the rain He sends? Knowledge, Understanding, Wisdom, Truth.
From the above we see that the "waters of the flood" were already "upon the earth," as they have been since the beginning. Today those waters are deception...and as then, they shall increase. After the seven days God shall rain truth upon the earth for 40 days and 40 nights and His truth combats Satan's deception. Still, after God's truth, waters remain and increase upon the earth. Those that see and hear are on the ark.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
7:11-13 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
If that example is applicable today, and I believe it is....the waters of deception, which have been here since the garden, remain on the earth today and on Lyar 17 (the Hebrew 2nd month, 17th day)...which this year will be...May 21, 2011....the great tribulation begins for us as it did in Noah's time. The spiritual battle of Armageddon is waged...The two forces are in hand to hand combat. God sends His latter rain and Satan's "fountains of the great deep" are opened. Rejoicing and Woe.....
On the selfsame day...the windows of heaven shower His rain (His elect speak as the Spirit teaches them) and the fountains of the great deep (Satan's elect...his tares) flood the inhabitants of the earth with great deception. And, on the selfsame day...as Noah and those with him entered the ark...so do God's elect. What is the ark? Jesus is the ark of His testament....
Jesus is the ark of His testament....and the ark is in heaven. Where are we? He dwells in us and because he does, we dwell in heaven (while in our flesh body)....
We are the temple and He is in us, we are in the ark of the testimony, in heaven! We who dwell in heaven....rejoice! Woe to those still of the earth and sea.
Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Revelation 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in His temple the ark of His testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Jesus is the ark of His testament....and the ark is in heaven. Where are we? He dwells in us and because he does, we dwell in heaven (while in our flesh body)....
Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
2 Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

7:17-19 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth. And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters. And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
7:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
Both the rain of our Father and the waters of the great deep were...forty days upon the earth, perhaps beginning sundown May 21, 2011. Noah and those he represents are on the ark...they are kept from Satan's deception, his temptation, his great flood even though they are right in the middle of it. They have truth.
God gives us the latter rain for forty days and forty nights, time for others to see and hear...a time of probation. If it begins sundown May 21...it ends sundown July 1. His rain ends and yet, the waters INCREASED and prevailed EXCEEDINGLY upon the earth. Satan gets stronger and stronger in his deception. Those still "of earth," fall in the great apostasy of end times.
The rains ends...but the great deep continues until the completion of the 150 days.

It is almost over. Satan's army can no longer buy and sell souls nor can God's windows, His saints, give His truth to those that choose to be deceived.
Notice the waters are "returning continually," but it is not until after the end, not at the end, of the 150 days when "the waters were abated."

8:4-5 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventh day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat. And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
The seventh of the seventh month is Tishri...our October 5, 2011. The first of the tenth month is Tevet, our December 27, 2011. Are the waters decreasing as the wicked are being judged?
8:6-7 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made: And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
When God's forty days of rain end, He will "sent forth a raven." It is the raven and his army that shall greatly increase the waters of deception on the earth. It is his "hour of temptation" when He himself, the raven, is...on the earth going "to and fro."
Joel 2:9 They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
Genesis 8:8-12 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground; But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.

And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
8:13-14 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry. And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
Noah (who is symbolic of the elect/saints/manchild) was 600 years old [Gen.7:11] when he entered the ark. Bullinger places his birth at [2948 BC] so this was year [2348 BC] when the flood began....yet, we now see that year 601 is the first year, first month, first day when the waters were dried from the earth. This historical event is teaching of the millennium...new beginnings. I am given to wonder....does the millennium include the six hundred years of Noah's/the elect's life before he/we enter the ark? If yes, then when this age ends there are 400 years left in which to teach others (not the thousand years).
Should the end happen this year, as I believe it will then.....2011 - 600 = 1411! I'm not sure what happened historically in that year but it is very interesting to see the numbers 1411. They are a sign of His elect.
