This morning, as I was working on this:
| I believe, though, that God calls each one of us to be a voice calling in the moral wilderness in which we live. And wilderness it is, grinding steadily toward absolute, all-encompassing vileness and depravity not seen since Noah’s time. This corruption already stealthily and gently smoothers our God-ward sensitivity, slowly and steadily invading our hearts like smoky tendrils wafting gently and seductively on the numbing breezes of our culture. |
I thought, “I should start a new category called Days of Noah.”
Next thought: “That’s a good search of the day.”
Then I thought, “That’s a good blog name. I could use such a blog to remind, warn, encourage, and prepare God’s people for the perilous times in which we live.”
Followed by: “I don’t have time for another blog. I already have four or five!”
Maybe I should retire this blog and start Days of Noah. No, not now. I’ll settle for a category called that here at Ain’t Complicated (aka, Mark’s Views, Perhaps). And I’ll do a search of the day also (using GoOgle, of course).

| The Days of Noah are here again!!
According to the Bible there is nothing wrong with eating and drinking, marrying etc., etc., but these people who lived before the Great Flood were doing something which caused the Lord to drown them all. They were creating genetic monstrosities and polluting the human race with Satanic bloodlines in order to prevent the Messiah from having pure human blood. In the days of Noah (in particular the pre-flood period), persons were eating, drinking, interacting with friends and loved ones, etc. This sounds no different than our daily activities. From the Genesis chapter 6 account, individuals were also violent, corrupt, and wicked. “The LORD saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time . . . Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence” (Genesis 6:5, 11). One only has to look at our modern-day newspapers to get many examples of what passes for violence, corruption, and wickedness. Of course the instruments used to accomplish these activities would be different in the days of Noah, but the evil intent and the evil result were the same. Evil was their normal mode of operating.

| Hasten the end – Apocalypse now!
The truth is that though nature’s four seasons continue to cycle serenely throughout the ages, and men and women, as in the days of Noah, continue to marry and be given in marriage, there is at the heart of history a continual battle going on. In fact, the battle began before human history, when Michael and his forces swept the legions of Lucifer out of heaven. There is a reason that we never get tired of love stories–love is of the essence of human life. There is also a reason that we never get tired of war stories–war has been our constant companion and will be so till the last trumpet. Come out of her my people — What kind of “news” search result is this!!! 🙁 On any given Saturday night in cities across this nation, it’s we who are killing each other. You make it easy for racist police to kill you because you are busy killing yourselves. We must become a community that respects the life of each other and will protect the life of each other, and will protect your women and your girls, then if an enemy of that peace comes in among us. How can I do what is right by you, while I watch what you are doing wrong by one another? Half of all murder victims in America are Black men, and 9 out of 10 of those that are murdered are murdered by their own Brother or Sister. But I warn the government, that at a certain time, if you don’t do justice by us, God will retaliate in a way that He has never retaliated on any nation that has existed in the past. If you go and read your scriptures and see the plagues that God brought in the days of Noah, in the days of Lot, to the people of Ad and Thamud, to the people of Salih, to the people of Moses, to the Roman Empire, to the Babylonian city, all that God has brought on them, He will bring on America. As it is written in the scripture, He will bring the blood of the righteous from Able to Zachariah, even to this very day, on one generation. I don’t want to see that happen. I would like to see America avoid that. I would really like to see us avoid such a call that would be suicidal. Walls and a roof would be a luxury for Ray Kelley’s congregation. For now, the field will have to do. Hoarse from yelling, he reads to men and women in folding chairs. “As it was in the days of Noah so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.” A cigarette tips precariously from a listening man’s lips, each tongue flick counting the seconds of the sermon. Ash-colored clouds sweep the sky and leaves rustle; a downpour can’t be too far. “It ain’t going to rain,” Ray Kelley shouts. The crowd stirs. “It ain’t going to rain tonight.” |

| As in the days of Noah
As the Word of God declares the time of the Son of man coming would be as the days of Noah were. We are living in those days today. Perilous and exciting times. We are here to encourage you in your daily walk with the Lord and to help you wake up as our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed! Becoming Real » What Does Noah Have To Do With the Moon? We have really been immersed in what it must have been like in the Days of Noah. It was awful when every man’s thoughts were evil continually. It’s hard to imagine everybody in the world, except one family, being evil. How God must have grieved. And how sad and frustrated Noah must have felt to be preaching and warning all the time for 120 years and not having any converts, except perhaps for 3 women who became his daughters-in-law. Talk about an unsuccessful man! Or was he unsuccessful? I’d say he was the most successful man of his time! He sure came out on top in the end. He was the only one who survived. And he became the father and grandfather of everybody on Earth. What is the measure of your success? Obedience to what God has told me to do. That’s the measure of my success. The Days of Noah: Do We Preach The Coming Judgment? The Bible tells us that Noah’s time was marked by gross sexual immorality that devalued and debased marriage, that it was increasingly brutal and violent, and that the culture was opposed to God in every way. It further tells us that when Jesus returns the conditions on earth will be the same. God saved Noah through the ark and He will deliver His people at the Second Coming via the rapture of the church. The rest will receive judgment, just as they did in the days of Noah. |
Thanks for posting from my blog. It has been interesting to read the novel, The Heavens Before by Kacy Barnett-Gramckow to see her perception of what the earth and its people were like in the Days of Noah. We see many parallels with what is happening now in our own lives. People around us don’t seem too concerned about eternity or God. There’s a good CD by Corey Russell, that has excerpts of messages he has preached put to music called The Days of Noah. It’s really good, too.
Thanks for stopping by Becoming Real! And keep warning people.
