26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
Face the future with the right attitude
We are waiting for Christ, not antiChrist
Christ already reigns as the King of the universe and will continue to do so forever
Christ shares His authority with His believing people and makes continuous victory possible for us always every where
we face the future as optimist and not pessimist
A unique and distinctive condition of the world before the Son of God comes back
1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. 3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. 4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
In the time of Noah there is a intense penetration of the human race from the occult, unseen spiritual realm
5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Man’s inner experience - mind and heart of man
Universal corruption of thought life - everything had been contaminated images, speech, concepts they were all permeated by something impure or unclean
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
Sudden upsurge of violence among women and men - common place
12 So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.
Corrupt - sums it all up - total corruption of all that kings of relationship with flesh -
Widespread Sexual corruption and perversion

4. Widespread Sexual corruption and perversion
13 And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. 14 Make yourself an ark of gopherwood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outside with pitch.
18 But I will establish My covenant with you; and you shall go into the ark—you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.
Wrath of God is going to be revealed
3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”
19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Flesh - self-life (TPT) - The behavior of the self-life
Adultery (sexual immorality)
Fornication (lustful thoughts, pornography)
Uncleanness (impurity, lustful pleasures)
idolatry (chasing after things instead of God - the desire for wealth, which is the essence of idol worship)
sorcery
hatred (enmties - hatred of those who get in your way
contentions (strife, quarreling
jealousies (resentment when others are favored)
outbursts of anger (temper tantrums)
selfish ambitions (only thinking of yourself)
dissensions - disagreement that leads to discord- being in love with your own opinions
heresies
envy (being envious of the blessings of others)
murder
drunkeness (wild parties, uncontrolled addictions)
cursing
filthy speech
6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 11 Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,
17 For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
No peace on earth - kill each other
Starvation - it is not man made - supernatural - wrath of God
one fourth killed - kill each other , of hunger, wild animals
Cosmic disturbances - islands and mountains move out of place - great earthquakes
Vegetation burned up
Water struck, rivers and seas
Believer get into the ark
( Noah and his family have to get into the ark in a given moment in the time )
Noah’s Ark - Jesus Himself
Everything God commanded
Divine Order

Two Arks
Big Ark - Noah’s Ark - you in Christ
Little Ark - Moses - Holy of Holies in the tabernacle - completely overlaid by God- Christ in you
What is an ark for us as believers now? - Christ in you - allowing God to work through you
