Intro

weird themes and water
God’s justice and order and why we want that

the chaos of creation

there is an ancient idea about what water is and the themes that go with it
without form and void, scholars debate the correct wording there
where there is confusion and emptiness, God creates something comprehensible, with beginnings and ends and forms
God desires justice in the same way and is always just because of the same principal here

the selfishness of the world-Noah

still God does not force people to make any decision and for the sake of freedom he has not done away with the opposer
he even finds a way to grip the immortal things and cause them to be selfish
the whole world is corrupted but Noah and God chooses to do away with it
using the very symbol of the chaos that works against him he destroys the world

Jude

overcoming evil by his justice
fun references to lots of weird histories
the point being that God will have justice on those who live by their own desires
those who let the choice presented to them rule over them, rather than living for the good they were made for

Application

you can step outside the order that God has made
the consequence is that you will eventually be brought back to order whether you like it or not
God offers you mercy despite your self and in that he is justified
you can choose to live in your dreams, but that will be all that you have in the end
which nearly sounds harsh until you consider all that the other end has to offer
