Noah was a preacher of righteousness, warning the people of that time to flee from the wrath to come. But the people would not hear. 2 Peter 2:5, And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Jesus, also a preacher of righteousness, warning us, in Luke 17:26-30, And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
Matthew 24:36-39, But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noe 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, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
How many, do you think, of those who died in the flood, would have liked to have change their lives and repent when they seen the flood waters fast approaching?
So, it is in this day. God has sent forth His Son in the likeness of man to warn you to flee from the wrath to come. 1 Corinthians 1:21, For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
How many more of our own family and friends do we have to bury before we get the revelation that our time is short and the door to our escape is soon coming to an end? When we take our last breath, our life is over, our race is finished.
1 Corinthians 1:18, For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
