And the ark is an allegory for...

[Bushwonyes]

AMEN!

[Thinkin' Gal]

Thank God, we're living in a day of grace and mercy and it's never too late to call upon the Lord. Thank God you can just be going your own way and you can still repent and call on Him when you get in trouble

The sun is setting on the day of grace.

So don't be confused when you hear words of doom and destruction around you. Those words aren't meant for you. They're not meant for the Church of God. The Church is not going to undergo the wrath of God. We've already been delivered. We've already been set free. We've been made the righteousness of God. It's sin and unrighteousness and disobedience that brings the wrath of God upon the earth just like it did in Noah's day.

It's worth keeping in mind that Jesus told his followers that the last days would be "as it was in the days of Noah". I'm not convinced we're in those last days yet... but I do know that even 15 years ago Christians did not receive the kind of mocking (as Noah received) as they do today.

Do you have any idea what a board-cubit of wormwood goes for these days?

I thought this was going to be a Bill Cosby thread.

God: Noah, I want you to build an Ark.

Noah: Right.... what's an ark?

God: Build it 80 cubits by 30 cubits.

Noah: Right.... what's a cubit? Who is this really?

One of the funniest comedy bits I ever heard.

Somone once told me that God committed genocide when He flooded the earth.  I was so astonished at such an idea that I didn't think to tell him that all the ones who were not on the ark had rejected Noah's message (he preached about the coming destruction to everyone).  Here is a useful  link.

Yes, a flood is coming, make no mistake about it.

Build your ark with the 91st Psalm. Build it with scriptures about your deliverance. Build it by abiding in the Almighty. Build it by saying with your mouth, "He is my refuge. He is my fortress. He is my God. In Him will I trust and on Him I lean and rely."

[Robert A Cook PE]

Have Faith? Yes.

Build a (literal) ark?

NO....... Seems that the same passage later promised that He'd never destroy the earth by water again.

Now, He didn't rule out fire, brimstone, earthquakes, meteors, apathy, or liberals .... but He did absolutely rule out water.
